The latest illustration of the troth of this ; remark are the comments of certain Washington correspondents and cer ' . mon's bill introduced into the United States Senate relative to placing tbe few surviyrag veterans of the war of 1812 on the pension list again, wjio hail from the Sonthl Their names had been thrown oat because of their locality and supposed or real sympa thy with that awfnl rebellion. (We stop to remark that we get piping hot whenever we read in a Yankee1 paper of Southern "rebels," when we i l' : t. L j . i. .: . ui Know now iiiev a.ica.eu uu lucii uccio at George the Third, in such a .vigorous r , way, - and were so hot for socession from 1808 to 1814.) Now, no one but a bull-headed par tisan, who" would not be just or gen erous though the very heavens fell, could possibly' object to Senator Mer h ri mon's bilL It is wise, just and time- ly, because proposes to pay to the real heroes of the war of 1812 the ';v pension now paid to the veterans of ; that time who' happened to -live in the ; North, and Were able, at a later day, to speak contemptuously of ' "South ern, rebels,'' The Southern veterans of 1812 are necessarily very old men, and were old men when the war of 1861-began. ' They were too old to shoulder any thing but their crutches, and only then to fight their battles o'er again and not to meet tbe new invader at our border. To persecute them now by witnnolding tne pay tnat nas Deen accorded to the men of the North who fought the battles of the country1, s is malignant and mean, and every way unworthy- ofanyf nation butone 6f idiots anT pirates. 1 The men whp have been cut eff b cause of Southern , " birth or residence belonged to thfe Southern army that won those battles that gave prestige -and glory to, the American i &am Tb : refuse to give them the dole that 'the Government bestows upon less meritorious soldiers, simply because their homes were in theSouthj is as contemptible as un just, v yWe hope the wrong done will ,be remedied by the passage of Judge Merrimon's bill. To ref use to do this would show a malicious and vin dictive spirit on the part of Northern Senators that would go a good way towards rekindling ithe smoldering fires of sectional dislike and antago nisms. As a Northern journal perti nently remarks, the Northern man who Is haunted by rf the fear of the payment of pensions to Confederate soldiers shows scarcely more sense than the Southern man, if such a lunatic is to be found, who looks for ward to such an impossible thing. In fact no one in the South enter tains such a preposterous idea, and no one in the North knows this better than the vindictive defamers jn the Northern press who are warning their section against this fiction of their own imaginations. y The veteran's ofthe Mexican war should also receive' their pensions;. without reference' to locality or na tionality. A great government can not afford to be vindietiveiggarclly, partial or mean. , ' Here is the way the great Radical paper, the New York Times, refers to Senator Merrimon's bill: . 1 . ' "Senator Merrimon, of North Carolina, thinks the present a good time to restoTe rebel soldiers to the pension list. It is a season of conciliation, good-will, and sen timent, and so Mr. Merrimon introduces a bill which reads as follows: 'That section 4,715 of the revised statutes, forbidding the payment of the pensions therein named, be and the same is hereby repealed. That is the whole case," and it is intended to; re store" to the pension list the persons and their heirs who voluntarily engaged in the late rebellion against tbe authority of the United Slates. This is the entering wedge. It is the preparation for a bill to include; in the list of pensioners those who fought in 'both armies,' as some of the sentimental ists put it. Mr. Merrimon does not believe with Andrew- Johnson, that 'treason is a crime, and must be punished as such. T . ' .VITAL STATISTIC.' : We collate from the New York Sanitarian some statistics not with out interest as to the death-ratei of the various cities;" The calculation is based uDOn the vital statistics for August and September. Out of every 1,000 inhabitants, w in one year, SO many die. In Sew i ork the per cent, is 27.42 in every thousand; Phil 4' adelphia, 16.93; Brooklyn, 23.26; Chicago, 17.88; Boston, ' 24.46; :Cin cinnati, 14.90 ; San Francisco, -15.76; Pittsburgh, 26.00; Milwaukie, 15.b8; Rochester, 20.82 ; New Haven, 1 7.06 ; Dayton, 11.66; Buffalo, 16.87; Sacra mento, 2343. 1 . The statistics in many Southern cities i show an excetsive mortality.

For instance, . Philadelphia shows a mor tality of 16.93 and Memphis of 41.06, or nearly three persons have died in Memphis during September to one that has died in Philadelphia. The mortality in London from all causes was, per 1,000 inhabitants, for five weeks ending Sept. 15th, 18.4, Edin--burg 16.2, Glasgow 21.4, Dublin 22, Birmingham 24.8, Bristol 19.4, Liverpool 27, Paris 21, Rome 26, Vienna 20, Brussels 24, Berlin 29, ombay 04, Maaras ia4, Amsterdam 25, Alexandria 52, Munich 41, Na ples 22. .

Richardson,' the inde pendent, candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, has retired rom the field. He was the advocate of what is known in the political par- ance of that State as a "forcible re adjusting." After meeting the people at various points, and being : met by the regular Democratic nominee, Gen. J as. A. .Walker, he saw that the peo ple of the "Old Dominion" were not yet ready to take steps to bring eter nal reproach upon themselves and their children, but were for maintain ing the credit of the State at every cost. Hence he "steps down and out' of the canvass. We regard the posi tion of the people of Virginia at this financial crisis as being highly honor able and becoming. . There are true manliness and honor in the old land yet.

Mrs! Gaskell wrote while Mr.s Bronte was alive but she, in entire independence, , gave 'ths world the worst form of Mr. Bronte's pecuj liarity that of a strict disciplinarian at times, perhaps almost Puritanical, yet a dutiful husband and kind parent.
