The Pension Business.
One day last week the Journal in
discussing the Mexican Veteran Pen
sion Bill used the following mild lan
guage: "Now, nearly every caudid
wan who went to Mexico as a volun
teer private, will admit that the sen
timent ot respect and love of the flag
which he possessed in common with
all good Americans, was not the ouly
motive. It was love of adventure, a
a penchan-t for camp life, a curiosity
to see war, a desire to indulge the
combative instinct of tbe male animal,
a disposition ta get away from home
and see the world, an escape from fi
uauoial or domestic difficulties. in
fact almost anything but unadulterat
ed love of country that sent him to
tbe recruiting station. The Mexican
wav was like the war against the Mo
docs, or Sitting Bull, or Chief Joseph,
not one of those ware that attraot citi
zens to tbe army as private soldiers
through motives of pure patriotism
and duty to the old flag."
Tho Brownville Adverriser un
dertakes to inform its reader of the
sentiments of the Journal, as oonvey
ed in tbe above, in the following lan
guage: "The State Journal invitea tbe ill
will of the old soldiers of the Mexican
war. It says Mexican noldiers did
not engage in that war through patri
ots motives, but were a lot of adveu
turers or dishonorable men flyinor
from crimes or debts, and should
therefore receive no such honorable
recognition from the government In
their declining years as a pension.
V,9 crn the bigoted csnsorpbfp of
the Journal, and denounce its uncall
ed for and ungenerous comments and
conclusions as false and slanderous.
He who was a puling Infant when
those great events were taking place
cooliy denounces the idea of recogniz
ing Mexican-war soldiers on an equal
ity with veleransof other ware, be
cause, forsooth, they were adventur
ers or criminals."
Now if our waspish friend of THE
Advertiser believes in that lake of
fire and'briiustoiiH that the orthodox
tell us about, however does he expect
to keep out of It when lie renders his
final account, after havlne bo grossly
misrepresented his neighbor in this
way. State Journal.
The Journal quotes itpelf and what
we snid in denunciation correctly, and
we leave it for our renders to say if we
have grossly or at all misrepresented
nur neirrhhnr. Our interrelation of
our neighbor's smooth insinuating is
absolutely correct, as we intend to be
in everything we say. Read careful
ly the Journal attributed motives of
the men who sought the "recruiting
stations" for the Mexican war "a
penchant for oamp life ... a desire to
indulge the combative instinct of the
male animal . . . an escape from finan
cial and domestic difficulties . . .in fact
almost anything but unadulterated love
of country,'1 an d yet the Journal eays
we are in danger of a certain sulphur
ous lake for grossly misrepresenting
it. We are not at all alarmed, but lle-
spirit of truth and benevolence impels
us to warn our neighbor against the
dire punishment of a self-condemned
slanderer of tbe veterans of the Mex
ican war a punishment which his
more than two columns of apologetic
bosh, regarding what he says above,
will not paliate or justify.

They are agitating the subject of
dancing now in New York, and one
of tbe papers has interviewed a num
ber of ministers regarding tbe sub
ject. Dr. Theodore G. Thomas bald
he "considered daucing a capital ex
ercise, beneficial to the body and the
mind. Bodily exercise which did not
afford recreation for the mind, he was
not in favor of. A man might get in
to a treadmill anil exercise himself
every day, but it would be absolute
drudgery, and would not have the
beneficial effect of half as much row
ing in u boat with pleasant compan
ions. Half of the troubles of Ameri-
Ciiti women were more or lens imagin
ary, he thought, and arose fiom a
luck ot pleueaut occupation lor the
muni. Anything likeu movement to
do away with dancing, winch seiveil
that end, was very much to be de
precuted. We need more instead of
fewer recreations," he continued;
bomelhing which will keep the minds
of people pleasantly occupied and
their bodies moderately exercised. I
think we should encourage the estab
lishments of public gardeiiri suuh as
thev have in Europe, concert halls
and dancing halls under proper re
straint and of proper character. where
men and women could find without
etfort good music, pleasant companionship,-
and amusemeut. I don't
think that immorality is encouraged
in the least by danoiug. On the con
trary. I have noticed that the tenden
cy to immorality is much greater
among gloomy, somber people than
it is among people with bright and
cheerful habits of mind. I think you
will find among people of decent
minds that there Is no more tendency
to improper thoughts in the contact
of the sexes in dancing than there is
when men and women sit on chairs
and talk perhaps not so much.'

" ily plantation is in a malarial district. For
several years I could not make half a crop on
account of eicknees. I employ one hundred and
fifty hands, often half of them were sick. I was
nearly dtecouraged when I began the nse of

caution as well as a cure. The result was
marvellous; my laborers became hearty, robust,
and happy, and I have had no further trouble.
With these Pills I would not fear to live in the
