Several of the people abou the 'theatre have. atttempted it, bu they have come .to the conclusion tha it cannot be done: yet I think you ma: suceeed." Mr.* Hopkinson retired ti his study, and in a short time wrot the-first verse and chorus, which wa submitd to Mrs. Hopkinson, wi sang them at a piano accompaniment and' proved the measure to be coin pa~,tible aind in keeping. In this wa; -the second and other verses were wril - ten, and when Mr. Fox returned ii the evening, he received with deligh the song as It now stands. The following morning, small hanel bills agnounced that Mr. Fox woul, sing a new patriotic song, etc. Th theatre was crowded; the song wva sung and received with rapture; it wa repeated eight times, and again er cored; a-d when sung the ninth timc the whole audience stood up and joir ed in the cho~rus.

The matter was not at all 'corroctf stated, and as it is one of import-an. I give the following as the facts : Ti1 law in question provides that 'in cas, of the death of the widow of a sold-ei then the pension shall revert to the de ceased soldier's children. There th, law stops; but Secretary Thomas Ew ing decided 'that although the act" Congress goes no further than to th children, the common law steps in an carries to any other heirs. This decie ion has governed the matter since. Gov. McClelimnd, the present Secretfl ry of the Interior, 'has, however, d cided that this construction of the laN is wrong. If the Pension law hai passed previous to the einlistnent an service of the soldier, then it woul< have formed a part of his emolumen for service, and as such would con Wider the provisions of the commoi law, like any other property, to th I extent of even being liable for hi debts. But it was a law passed afte the service had expired, and formed n part of the contract for service. Th I pension is simply a gratuity given b; Congress after the governmeet had fu: filled all its agreement and duty t< wards the soldiers, and as such can or ly be used to the extent the -terms c the act authorized, and no further. This cuts off'a large number of clait ants, but the decision is manifestly i accordance with the law." Gov. McClelland, the Secretary. c the Interior, has asked the Attorne Geieral for an opinion on the point c law involved. A TarrLi.so INCIDENT.-The ol ifag-staff at Jefferson Barracks, Mh souri, having become decayed was oi dered to be taken down a few day since, and, accordingly, a soldier c Col. Bragg's battery, named- Michaf McAnally, mountcd to the cross-tree and unshipped the top mast; fror some cause it became unmanageab< and glided through the platform to th ground. The man at the mast hea kept his post composedly, and giv timely warning below "to stand fror under." Most men with- a spar fift fee: long, shooting and rasping like a arrow through their hands, with an ir secure footing at a dizzy hiight, woul have "left the. yard," and tumble from the platfoirm.

The soldier,i the meantime, was seen to change bi position as the mast went over, an circling high through the air wit frightful velocity, lie, with perfect se possession,. adjusted himself to cleni - the framiework of the cross-trees, an as the mast neared the ground, he, e' idently, with a measured leap, alighte amidst his comrades. All were star1 -led with amazement, as much by th - intrepidity displayed as by the immn nent peril it averted. The nsain-mas wvas forty-cight feet high; the sLnldie landed at fifty from its base.
