Wo are indebted to our old friend, Wiley Gooden. for a lot of old ne\vs|>a|iers published in 1'nioii. ranging from forty to tifty years ago. They are very interesting and we intend to give extracts from them occasionally, for the lxuiellt of our readers. On our first jKige we give the new pension law, by request, of Senator Douglas. In our judgment, it is moiv htinglesoute and unsatisfactory than ever. The |iension law, l?ke all others should lie perfectly plain and simple, while it is mom complicated than ever. The )ieusiou law of several years kiek was undoubtedly the liest law yet enacted 011 the subject, and . the simplest. (Jo kick to it gentlemen.

Kilitor Tiie Union Times: Etta Jane, March, 1.?Why is it that we can't draw money for our free schools until the taxes are all collected? This question is now agitating the minds of our iKHiple, and it is one which ought to lie answered hy those who know. Some of our schools (in Cioudeysvillo township) havn't drawn a dollar of pul?Hc money this winter, and they liegan alxuit the the 1st of last Deceinlier. Is it just that we of the new county, assume our part of the old county's, indebtedness without any right to receive what school and road money ltelongs tons? Din's the law and constitution dismiss us from the the old county without any claims on it. except our part of its indebtedness. Does it proviso to disinherit the "cut oft" and at the same 1 time hold it responsible for its pro rata share of the family expenses, without turning over what lawfully and rightly lielongs to it ? 1 lltT* qilCMlUHS IllllSl IK* aUSWCrOU. The j>cople are restless. Law is the very essence of human reason and common sense ; and H' we pre to pay our part ot tlu* old county's debt (which we will cheerfully do) we ought to have our part, of what money we earned and put into its treasury while we were a inemlier of its family. 1 )oes the old county pro)msc to treat us as the parents do the naughty girl who runs off and gets married to some trifling fellow without their consent, by refusing to let her have her clothes. We liavn't done anything wrong, we went out of the old county in the broad light of day and' under' the clear sky ot the constitution. The trainers ot the constitution gave their constituents credit for having common sense, and didn't think it necessary, in detail, to set forth in that document that the "cut oil" must have their ap|>ointment of school and load monies in their respective county townships when they went out. They ilssijllfC and carry with them their part of the old county :s del a and ?' > cant they get their interests in the school and road fund. The masses of the people of the old county arc not the hlame for this. They dot it want our money, and wouldn't have it if they knew it. Its another case of bungling legislation for which tliisStatc hasliocoine notorious. We leave the old counties with great reverence for their good |ieoplo and sot up housekeeping for the convenience and df h'lW'lvw illltl iKPMii-ity, (<od lifting our helper we intend to make Cherokee county the hrceen, and (ialTney city ton Athens of Mouth Carolina, and if the old iiu?ther county (or any other part of them) wish to break up housekeeping and conic and live with us, we will take them in and take good care of them as long as they liehave themselves. ,I .\mi:s L.
