BOSTON FIRE RECORD. Fire Com missioners of the city of Boston report the past year as singularly uneventful one. It has been marked by no great and disas- trous fires. no large destruction of property by fire, and no loss of life in consequence of fire. On the contrary, the aggregate loss on buildings and contents amounts to less than $550. .O00-a loss smaller than has been recorded for many years. The num- Der of men and officers now permanently employed in the department is now 292, and the number who do duty only at fires is s6s. making total of 66o; the steam engines 36. hose carriages 34, hook and ladder carriages 12. Total number ot alarms 4s3, and actual fires AS. With every precaution and the greatest skill and watchfulness on the part of the firemen, destructive fires are always possible under a combination of adverse conditions, and it must be borne in mind that few people outside of the department ever know how narrowly the small fire escaped being con- fagration. The loss of few minutes, ir
 decision, or lack of courage and endurance, would over and over again have shown the difference.

Death of Henry Benton.

Henry Benton died at hls residence on South Fuzhugh street in this city on Tues day morning, Oct 17lh, a, the age of 73 His health had been impaired for some months past, but it was not until quite re- gently that his illness gave unmistakable signs of fatal termlnation.
 MT. Benton was born in Salisbury, Conn. the birthplace also of our former respect ed fellow. citizens. Graham H. Chapin and Judge Theron R. Strong, whose early com panion and friend he was. He removed to Monroe county at the age of seventeen, and was for long time with the firm of Bushnell & Guernsey at Pittsford. and con. tinued with them after thelr removal to the mouth of the river, at Charlotte. Mr. Ben ton, under the tuition of his cousln, Fred erick Benton. received an excellent busi- ness education, and was for some time en. gagged in business with MT. Latta at ChaI- lotIe. While residing here, and during the administration of Andrew J ,cks0n, he re- ceived the appointment of Deputy Collect or of the port ot Genesee, which position he held suhs, qurntly under the administra-
 
 wards appointed Deputy United States Marshal for the northern district of this state, holding both appointments under the late Gen Jacob Gould. The duties per taining to these offices were discharged by NIT. Benton in the most satisfactory man. ner. His accounts and reports transmitted to the department at Washington were re gardrd as models of neatness and accuracy, and won hun the highest encomtums of the government officials For many years past Mr B ntou had not been engaged in any active business His wife, daughter of the late Gen. Jacob Gould, survives him, and in her bereavement will have the sin- cer- symp ,thy of many warm friends.
 Mr B6ntou was gentleman of genial heart and pleasing manners. unoh,rusive and retiring in disposition and a warm and sincere trend. Those who kn"w him best, knew thai his attention, his int rest in their behalf, and his sympathy was never sought by them in vain. His last houis were calm and peaceful, and though at times in suffering he was yet patient, evincing a tender consideration of those about him, and the final summons found him not uu- willing nor unreudy to depart-to enter in- to the rest grateful to the weary .-Roches- ter Daily Union and AdpertSser.

Nm MemOriam.

Death has been making sad ravages among the youth of our community of late. Of those who met at a social gathering just one year since, seven are sleeping in the dust. Among that number was she who has just left us so suddenly in all the beau ty and promise of young womanhood; our beloved friend Jennie Hemmings.
 Seldom have the hearts Of all in our midst been more thoroughly stirred with regret for the departed, and sympathy for the bereaved. than when we laid her in the silent tomb. The tears ia every part of that large company bore ample testimony to the love which was felt for her by all, but perhaps only those who knew her best were aware how perfectly. how beautifully her life-work was accomplished. Every thread of it taken up patiently. faithfully, while with entire forgetfulness of self she ministered to the comfort and well-being of her friends. The tendency of all her thoughts was sweetly exhibited even in her last illness, when, althC ugh slightly de.irious, she murmured, Running with patience the race that is set before us." Dear Jennie never shall we forget how her beautiful eyes sparkled with animation when in studying the word of God, she sought the full meaning of it's precious truths as for hidden treasures, and one who knew her wel.eve in the privacy of her own cham Der, testifes that never, however weary she might be, or however late she might retire, did she lay herself down to sleep withou, first reading portion ot Scripture and commenting herself to Him whom sht loved above all others. Truly Gods waYl are mysterious, and only those who neve doubt His wisdom and goodness can Say from the heart, in such an instance O death, '.He doeth all things we'll" But he life work is done. She has finished he course" she has ''kept the faith. leavini us beautiful example of womanly excel lence-ot early piety. There was nlch in the great temple above all ready for heI and she must go to fill 1t.
 And SO we turned from her grave wit only sweet thoughts of peaceful, shol life.
 sIn the cold, moist earth we laid her, when th
 forest cast the leaf,
 And we wept that one 90 lovely should have lii
 90 brief,
 Yet not unmeet It was that this young friend {
 ours.
 So pentle and so beautiful. should wither wit
 the flowers. M

FILE vs. aPLua ToRAooo.-A half dozen men were standing in Q store few days since. and while talking about the prospect of a great war in Europe, about politics, Susan B. Anthony, etc., in came a stoop- shouldered man, whip in hand and leath- CT belt around him, and he asked for plug of tobacco. The wink was passed around, and the clerk handed out an old file used to open boxes with, and said:
 "There's a new brand of plug, and think you will like it."
 'Piugl Why that's an old file" exclaim- ed the man.
 Anything ail your eyes ?" queried the clerk.
 ''No, sir; my eyes are all right"
 "Then why do you call this plug of to- bacco an old file? -.....
 Because it is. You don't think Pm a fool, do your" +a
 The clerk took up the file, passed it from man to man, and as each took it in his hand he remarked:
 '"That's plug of tobacco, of course, and 8 very nice plug, toO."
 Their unanimity and gravity rather frightened the stranger, who took up the file, looked over it, smelled 1t, and finally said:
 "Well, if that isn't file I never saw one."
 He turned round as if hesitating what to do, and the clerk removed the file and laid a plug of tobacco in it's place.
 ''Ah! This IS what wanted," said the man, as he caught sight of it.
 "That's file we use in the store, and we can't sell it." replied the clerk.
 File! Why this is a plug of tobacco"
 "You are becoming blind," answered the clerk, and he passed it around the circle. The men looked at it, drew it across thelr hands, and each one said:
 ''Tnat's as nice file as ever saw"
 'Can get a plug of tobacco here 3'' asked the man, looking around in half wild manner.
 "Yes. sir," replied the clerk, and he lad the old file on the counter.
 "Now, by thunder !" exclaimed the man as he took it up, I'm either blind,a fool or else the whole crowd here ought to go tc lunatic asylum!''
 The man put down the file and walked out. He was sec rubbing hls eyes ant looking around, and as be approached hi' team, on the opposite side of the street, he walked very softly and reached out for the hitching post as if he expected it would turn out to be something else.

The news from Europe strongly indicates that a great war is at hand. The Emperor of Russia is believed to be personally in favor of peace, but he is in current that he can hardly control or divert. The Lon don Tunes made an appeal to Germany to keep the peace, and the answer from Der
 lin substantially announces that Germany will stand aside. In other words, she will not interfere with Russia. Servia, under Russian influence, refuses an armistice. The Turks are very bitter toward Russia. The Eastern sky is lurid with coming war.

Within six months 45 per cent of the latest issue of fractional currency has been redeemed by issues of silver, and only 24.7 of the fourth, and insignificant proportions of the older issues The inference is clear that nearly the whole of the older issues, and over $4,ooO, 900 of the fourth issue have been lost or destroyed; while the re- tarding percentage of retirement on the fifth issue indicates that the loss on that will be somewhat greater than has been gener- ally supposed-perhaps quite fully one mil lion.
