The New York Pension Bill.

John Webber, 18th N. Y, Paterson,
N. j., protests emphatically against the
draft of the New York pension bill. If
a>soldier was patriotic enough to fulfill
his service he ought not now to be dis
criminated against. AS for himself, he
enlisted in the 18th N. Y. in 1861, and
was mustered out in 1863. He was
obliged to leave the State to secure en-
ployment, and now finds himself cut off
from the benefit of this bill.

Alex Keefe, Athens, Pa, believes that
the provision in the New York pension
bill that a soldier must have been a
bona-fde citizen of the State at the
time of enlistment and also for three
years prior to the time of his applica-
ton, is narrow, unpatriotic and should
be expunged. 1t is another blow to
those who did their full service in 1861
62 and received no bounties. A great
many men went from other States into
New York to fill up the regiments, for
it is we'll known that the people were
not unanimous for putting down the
rebellion. For himself, he had moved
in from Nova Scotia, and after a trial
in New York and Pennsylvania went
back to Canada in 1860 to reside there
permanently. He was there when the
arrest of Mason and Slidell caused so
much excitement, and more in Canada
than Nova Scotia. 1t looked as IL the
come, and England was about to taxa
advantage of it. His allegiance to Great
Britain was not very strong, and he
felt as if he would rather fight against
than for her, SO he came to New York
without any other thought than that
of pure patriotism, to enlist, which he
did at Buffalo In the Fall of
1852. He entered the I'd u. 8. Cav.
and served until he was knocked out
for good at Cold Harbor when
following Sheridan. He gave two
years and seven months to tho Govern
ment, and upon his discharge married
