The arrears of pensions now threafc ea to deplete the Treasury. It is esti mated that aa soon as all tbe claims can be edjosted the aunoal payment for pensions will amount to $700,000,- 800. This is not a legitimate charge on tbe industry of "our people. Con grass in a fit of demagogy passed the arream mf fissions bill, and wben at tention waa iaijed to fa enormous niSW/fhst would be required the legislative bedv tried to sbirt the rtsfiwsihtittj by charging the Com missioner Of Fensions with Isxness in Tbe Commission er demonstrated that be wsasiwpiy following the law, and as serted \£»t Congressmen didn't know wbtt tbtff were doing wh«n tbe arreare of pensions bill w«s passed. And Con greeemea will be more than convinced of their ignorance at that time wben they come to make choice in the near future whether tbe pension list shall be cut down or taxes increased. Tbe danger often attending tbe bite of a seemingly innocuous animal is fwhlbly shown in a case recently re ported in California. A man was bitten by * rabbit and nearly died in consequence. His, physician, hardly bettering that all the trouble proceeded from»the bite, wbkb was a mere scratch* carefally examined the upper jaws of neveral rabbits and found in each a hollow tooth containing a fluid ■o deadly that two drops of it, admin iatered hypodermically, caused the death of a lamb within as hour. Erery one baa a will and a mind to think for himself, yet many will go about hacking and coughing until a friend recommends Dr. -Bull's Cough Syrup for that cough. Tbe Shah of Persia fell violently in We with tbe Princess of Wales dur riag his visit to England some years ago, and about once a rear makes a tempting ofsr to tbe Prince for her His last offer was to give him two of bfl bast wires, his mother and bis graadmotber, in exchange for Alexan dra, but Walee still declined.

Thoee who stand on education as a safeguard against crime must always remember that Prof Wehoter was a highly educatedman, and that Gu : - teau is no slouch wben it comes to book learning. It does not follow that a man who has not been to college will aommit murder. Fer nervous debility take Peruna.

It is more complete in its news, in its special correspon dence in its varied contributions on all subjects of popular interest, and in all the qualities of a newspaper for the family circle and for the business man than any of its contemporaries, because its facilities and resources are equal to every want of a nrst-class national journal. "ThP lA/PPfrlll T!TTIRS"- nearly doubled its HID XKUUI\ILJ 1 ill! Up former large circulation during the past year. Its contributors from week to week are among the foremost men of the nation, and no department of news or literature is slighted in any number on any pretext. It is adapted as well to women as to men; hence, although its political intelli gence is full and accurate and its political editorials free and fear less, liberal provision is made for literary, dramatic and musical matters, travels and adventure, fiction, poetry, fashions and the chronicle of current social events. In all these departments the pens of the best writers are engaged, while selections from other journals are made with care, taste and fullness that are unsurpassed. THE "AXKALS OF THE WAR"— chapters of unwritten history contributed by prominent actors in the war of the rebellion, are a valuable feature of the paper and have become a recognized depository of such matters, whether from Northern or Southern j sources. This department, as well as all others, will bo kept full> up to the high standard of forme- years. ->TERMS:<- THE DAILY TlMES—Delivered in the City of Philadelphia and grounding Towns for Twelve Cents a week.
