iiim widow of the pwn'uoldior who ferudgea along
and exposes his life on all ooeasions, and win* has
nothing to leave to his widow and children to
support them. Officers have high salaries: they
hiwe high so trial position; they have many advan
tages that soldiers do uot have; uud sq have thuir
widow i and surviving children. If, therefore,
there be any regard to justice or propriety, the
soldier ought to be entitled to tho bounty of the
Govennnon'.r/ither than the officer. It L a mere
gratuityjit is a proposition -to take out of the (.rea
