Inquiries Answered and Sugges'
tiOns Made.

L. w. j., National Military Home,
Ohio.-The additional bounty under tn"
act of July %, 1866, was not allowable
to anyone who had received or was en-
titled to receive bounty in excess of $1OO
under any other law.
A. III. S., Atlanta, Ga.-The general
law rate of pension for total inability to
perform any manual labor whatever is
$50. To pensioners under the act of June
q, 1890, only $12 is allowed.
B. F. K., Sunbury, Pa.-The soldiers
services being subsequent to the war of
the rebellion, the widow would not be en-
titled to pension under any law unless it
could be satisfactorily proven that the sol
dier'S death was due to causes originating
in service. The pension act of June q,
1880, applies only to the war of the re
belion.

sioner leaves a lawful widow or child un-
der 16, nothing can be collected from the

Probably you mean the Board of Pension

brought before the Board, unless it is
claim for increase on pensioned disability,
and was rejected more than three months
before the appeal is brought. The Com
missioner of Pensions has the right to ap-
ply for a ruling or decision on a rejected

PLEDGE TO THE DEAD AND LIVING.
written for the Quincy, ILL.,, whig)

Cheers and love for the marching!
Flowers and love where the tread
Ends at the great encampment
That is wider and wider spread,
From the cOne-paved woods to wave-wor
cliffs,
Where the storm gnarled cypress filings
Its twisted limbs to the Japan winds
That sing of the island kings;
From the lands that quiver beneath the foot
Where mountains thunder and glow,
To the silent, vOiceless, solid seas
And the peaks in hoods of SNOW
For those who fought for the Glory
That waves above lanW and deep
Follow its course till the nightfall comes
And the teri is pitched for sleep.
Their graves are the gems of glory
That girdlc the restless world,
Be it Mt Pekin or Quincy.
Wherever the flags unfurlcd.
There can the pilgrim his homage pay
And say with uncovered head:
Our lives are better. our land is greater,
Because of the glorious dead
Shadow, ye island palms. that grave
Whore torrid heat beats down:
Weave, hands. of bronze, wreath for him
Who broke the sway of crown;
Glow. midnight sun. upon the ice
In fields of spectral white.
And let our mirrOred cOlors deck
Some hero's grave tonight.
The new South was not born until
1t owned that sacred tomb,
And in your valleys. Illinois.
Let Freedoms gentle wing
Sweep from the trees upon his grave
The blossoms of the Spring.
Let children sing their Nations odes,
a pledge to those who'vc gone.
Their work. their deeds. their glorious acts
Will still go marching on.
Let strong men gather by their graves
BY millions through the land.
And give their troth that 1t shall live
For aye, the Army Grand.
That from those lands, hOwc'cr remote,
Where in wars fame and wrack
The flag WAS placed. no rccrcant hand
Shall ever bear it back:
That where Cplumbia'S blood Is shed,
Colnmha's flag shall dwell.
For freedom lives where frccmcn died
And trimuphs where they fell.
We will not let their deaths end all;
Their work snail endless live.
They gaze their part Poor sons, indeed,
Should we not freely give.
Then let US swear their noble deeds,
Their sacrifice and pain
Shall never to the world be lost
Nor counted as in vain.
