What He Hopes For. O*» of the most dangeroitt trtter- ances of Jeff Davis was in liis speech at Auburn, Ala., where he was greeted by an enthusiastic audience, estimated by the Southern papers at o.OOO, Ac­ cording to the report in the Atlanta Constitution he said: You have heard of tLe Lost Cause. It is not lost. It will live again. It is not dead, but sleeping. Truth can never ale, and while the fair smile upon it. That Is, Jefl Davis believns and hopes that be has left embers smolder­ ing under the asheb of the past that will be uncovered some t me and fanned Into a flame wh!<Mi will devour the la id anew.

The Grand Army men are very fond of their corps badges, and uot only display them on their hats, thereby facilitating iniercnure between old comrades, but uee them for decorative purposes on their flags. So proud are the men of their corps marks that Congress long since passed a law permitting officers and soldiers of the regular army to wear their corp< marks as a badge ot honor on oc casions of cermonv."--Ledger. The rates of pensions allowed com* mIPSOned officers are a<i follows: Full pension of Sec. Lieutenant. ..#15 pr mth. Full pension First Lieutenant 17 pr rath. Full pension o f Captain 20 pr mth* Full pension of Major 25 pr mth Full pension of Lieut. Colonel or officer of any Higher rai.k ... 90 pr mth. Commissioned officers are 011 the same footing with enlisted men as re­ gards all the special rates (918, 924, 931,25. 937.50, and 972) that are higher than the full peneion rate for the rank they held. A pension Is always given in the rank held at the time the disability was incurred, and the rank is deter mined by any commission that may have been regularly issued, even though there ha i been no muster, pro­ viding there was a v-icancy in the rank itconferied, and providing also the failure to muster was due to the fault on the part of, or disability of the The Top Rail. None of the boys ever took othe r than the top rail, as the following Is an evidence that they always obeyed orders. During the Peninsular Campaign, complaint was **tnade to one of the Union officers that the soldiers used fence rails for flre-wood. Accordingly he issued an order that only the top rail should be takeaT^ Complaints continued to pour in, and a private, Michael McEienry, was caught in the act of taking the lowest rail of a fence. Michael was an honest fejlow and a favorite, and as this was the first offence, the officer deter­ mined to be lenient with him. So he bad Michael brought to headquarters. |nd demanded of hi m an explanation . "Sure, sorr." said Michael '*we was only a'beying orders. Ach of the b'ys tuk the top rail a6 he come to it, an' I #as last, an1 sure the bottom rail was *ben the top, too.'"--The Camp Fire ment they demanded their pound of flesh blood and all--and they have had it. True, they loaned their money when the Nation needed it--that is, they bought its bonds at about forty cents on the dollar, and when it came to payment nothing was good enough for them but gold--principal and in­ terest, and they hive had all they demanded--in fact all they could de mand. But when St Is proposed to do an act of simple {Jjustice to men who sacrificed health, opportunities in civil life, and nearly everything worth having, then the patriotic bondholder, who in most cases made his money during the war and out of the Inflation of values caused by the war, raises his voice and demands that the money of the Nation shall not be squandered In that way. The sum required lor the proposed pensioning of the prisoners, is comparitively small one. and even were it much larger, it is a debt that the country can better afiord topay, thin to leaye unpaid, and the country is willing to pay it, as every expres­ sion from the people, and Irom the different State legislators conclusively proves, and the people being willing, shall congress be terrified by the howl of the galvanized canaille; the Capi­ talists, who grew rich out of the war? The prisoners .have waited long and with such patience as they could, and they still have fath in the iense|of Justice of the American people, and trust that it will '<oon m ke itself felt to the effect of giviug them what is siaapiy and justly their due. j .Since the proposition ha9 been made to pension the men who were <onfined in the Rebel stockades, the bondhold­ ers have, through their various news­ paper organs r Used a vigorous protest against the appropriation of the Nations J money for that purpose. Why should th>y set themselves tfp as the guardians of the Treasury? Have not all their demands been satis- fed? , In thair dealings witt* tip goveriv This old soldier business Is out," remarked a Governmant official the other day, when he wai handed an application for appointment to a clerkship. It is safe to say that the gentleman who warmed his feet at a Government grate and took things easy in a comfortable Government offlce, never lived on an AndersonvUle bill of fare, or campaigned between the Potomac and the James Rivers.-- National Tribune. It is evident that the official above quoted was not himself an ex-soldier or he would not have made such a re­ mark to one of a class, who above ail others Is entitled by right (in view of the sacrifice made.) to any position in Government employ for which lie may be qualified. If It were not for the support given by the "old soldier," to this great Government, a Government grate would uot now warm the feet of the official. It is time for a*'Graud Army Constitutional Rights Associa tlon," such as has just been formed in New Yoik. to enforce the l*w which gives precedence to the "old soldier." ite-Unlon of the 15th.

Cols Rogers Swiitand Raney were present with Chaplains Rutledge of the 14th, and B. F. Rogers of the 15th. On arrival the veterans were marched to the Opera Hou<*e where a barrel of lemonade was ready to quench their thirst. Without any for­ mal meeting the time until 2 p. M. WHS spent in necessary business, greetings, recognitions and han.d shaking. At thai hour a banquet, that the comrades and-ladies of Belvidere need not be ashamed of, was served and a good part of it was disposed of, from soup, roast and baked beans, to fruit and I-*e Cream, a fter which the speech making began, led off by Mayor Whitman, of Belvidere, the others being introduced in the following order: Col. Rogers, with songs by the quartette sand­ wiched between, B. F. Rogers. Chap­ lain Ruttledge, Col. Swift, Allen C. Fuller, Col. David Roney, Capts. F. D, Patterson, W. W.

Tbla wa* the largest meeting of the five and the most enthusiastic. Tht comrades of Belvidere done all thai men and women could do to make th| occasion one to be remembered. Tb# delegates from this county did not' stay to the evening meeting, but havlt no doubt that it was equal to that af the afternoon lu all but number. « , m DKATH OFGKN.PAVK Blind for S3 Tears from a Rifle BsH st Gettysburg. Brig.-Gen. Gabriel R.

The lines of di­ vision were most unua'ural, and coon- ties that barely touched at the corners were joined together. The Republicans being In control of both houses of the legislature, have now restored the dis­ tricts as they were before 1882. This is only doing substantial justice to many interests in the State.
