We notice a paragraph going the rounds that it has recently been ' ecided that pension money or its proceeds is liable to legal process, execution or attachment. The (jnited States statute on the subject says that pension money due or to become due is not liable to lew under any legal or equitat le process, but shall inure wholly *to the beneiit of such pensioners.— State c uvts, we believe, hold that this provi non only applies to the fund while it is in the course of transmission from the Government to the pensioner. Therefore after it once readies the recipient, it is thereafter subject to judicial seizure like the property of other defendants, weather it is kept in the name of the pensioner or in the name of another for him.

A POSTAL CLERK’S STATEMENT Concerning the Mail Sybtbm Under the New Regime—Republican “Head Clerk." “1 see t e Repub’ioan Newspapers couiinue to keep up a bowl about ti e imperfection of the pos’al service under the new administration, remarked W. H. Wilkinson, a postal clerk running on the Monon between Indian apoiis aad Michigan Cltv. “Tne truth is that every head clerk on the thro’ mail lines going out of here is a Republican. They handle the letters and are responsible foi every mistake made in their delivery. And now I want to say a word for the new clerks Never in the history of onr present mail s’ stem has a lot of new clerks showed up as well a*, those that have been appointed during Mr. Cleve land’s administrutio. —their examination per cen‘B have been higher than those cf tue old clerks XV ny, formerly there were any number >f install ces where men received their permanent ; pjointment with 65 per cent. — Now mere is seldom a man taken that falls below 90.

A Congressmans Future State.— When Gen B- F. Butler was a Member of Congress, he and Mr. Randall were frequently pitted against each other, but they, as a rule, preserved good temper and cordial personal feeling for one another. At ohepoint of the famous deadlock over the civil rights bill, when Randall was mana£« Ing the Democratic side as uauai, But ler, who favored holding u. session on Sunday, went over to Randall’s desk to arrange for i«. Randall would not s reo to the proposition. “Bad as I am, I have some respect for God’s day.” said he, “and I don’t think it proper to hold a session ot Congress on that day ” ‘ Oh. pshaw!” replied Butler; “don’t the Bible say that it i- lawful to pull your ox or ass out ot a pit on the Sab: ath day? You have seventythree asses on your side of this House that I want to get out of this ditch to-morrow, and lihink I am engaged in a holy work.” “Don’t do it. Butler,“ pleaded Ran» dali. “I have so ne respect for you that I don’t want to lose. I expect some day to meet you in a better world.“ “You’ll be there, as you are here,” retorted Butler as quick as thought, “a member of th-* lower house ”—Z. L. White, in the American Magaz ne.

THE METHODIST “THAT’S SO.” The old-tim Methodist habit of shouting “Amen” and “that’s so, brother,” io church sometimes leads to ludicrous results. An instance c.-c curred recently in the Hanson Place Methodist church in Brooklyn: The Rev. George E. K.ed, in his sermon was telling of the benefits cf givinp, and illustrated it by examples from the Bibla. As an old gentleman frequently interrupted by shouts of “Amen” and ‘that’s so,“ the preacher remarked that some persons might doubt what he told them and say“Oh, that’s only what Mr. Reed says, and he don’t know much anyway,”— Just then came the familiar interruption, “dial’s ao, b: Other. *J“TLe bouse was convulsed wit laughter, and the pastor smiled and said: “Your interruption came in at the wrong place that time, brother,”—New York buneTHE STATE OF MATRIMONY. A funny man who asked “where is f h‘e state of matrimony?” leceived this explanatory answer: “Itis in the United Stat<s It is bounded by kiss lug on one side and cradles and bab.k s ou the other. Its chief pioducts ar population, broomsticks and staying out nights. It was discovered by Adam and Eve while trying to find a northwest pas-age ont of Paradise. The climate is rather sultry until you pass the tropics of house-keeping, when squaity weather sets in with sufficient power to keep all hands as cool as cucumbers. For the prixcipal roads leading to this interesting state, consult the firs pair of blue eyes you run against."

A Boston Girl In Chleage. I feel that I am very far from Boston, I realize that I am many miles nearer the line that separates civilization from the land of savages. And into these Western solitudes I have brought a volume of Herbert Spencer to refresh and eheer my mind. He always fascinate*; and the fact of his being still unmarried has something to do with it, for you know there is a halo surrounding the celibate which marriage utterly destroys. As in most philosophical questions, it is useless to ask why this is so. We can only observe the working of the phenomena, but not its cause. But truly, of Spencer I never tire. His ideas of the higher life are so consoling—the development from an “indefinite, incoherent homogeneity to a definite, coherent heterogeneity.” What could be tnier or more conclusive ? Perhaps the illiterate mind might be staggered by the unusual combination of polysyllables, but we who are cultivated can appreciate the subtle significance of a definite, coherent heterogeneity. His ideas of love, however, are not extravagantly tinged with romance. Suppose that a man with tender eyes aud raven-hued mustache, having seated himself by your side, should tenderly take your hand in his, and then assure in fervent tones that he is conscious of a molecular change in the vesicular nerve matter of his system, whose concomitant is love, and that you are the external object which has caused the change. Would an ice bath be more chilling? An hysterical woman would certainly lift up her voice and shriek aloud. No wonder that Herbert Spencer has lived to the age of sixty without marrying.
