VIII OF the Late George w. Riggs.

The will of the late George w. Riggs was
filed in the Office of the Register Of Wills
yesterday, admitted to probate and record
and letters of administration were issued
to Mr.. Lawrenson Riggs brother-in-law of
the deceased, on bond of 100000. The
bondsmen were l.. Francis Riggs, and L.
Lawrence Riggs sons of the deceased. The
personal estate, in the District, is estimated
to be worth 100000. The will was dated
August 5, 1867, drawn by the late John
Manderville Carlisle, and witnessed by
Mcssrs. A. Hyde, w. G. Bestor and
Thomas Hyde, and names Mrs. M. c.
Riggs and Lawrenson Riggs and j. M. Car
Isle as executors. The latter is dead
and the former, the wife of the tcstator, re-
nounces in favor of Mr. Riggs. The will
is quito lengthy, and abounds in legal
phases, hemming in all the requests in such
a manner that the application cannot be mis-
understood. All the estate and property,
real, personal, and mixed, of whatever kind
and wherever found, is left to the executors
in trust for Mrs. Riggs. They have power to
sell and convey real estate, or any part
thereof, in fee simple, and in like manner

tions, also to invest and reinvest
for the best interests of the estate.
The entire income of the estate, after pay
ing the taxes, repairs, insurance, etc, they
are to hold and dispose of according to the
orders of the widow during her natural life

quired, or so much as may be necessary, or

LONG BRANCH, Sept. 90.
TO LoweH Minister:

Skin Grating.

IlHCiiliitti thncttc.
DR.. John Deys, health officer of this
city, has successfully performed the opper-
alton of skin grating upon Mary Foster,
aged ten years. Several months ago she
accidentally scalded herself Her body
was badly burned, particularly the right
arm, the skin OF which, from the shoulder
to the tips Of tho fingers, peeled of. Tho
arm was slow to heal, and caused intense
pain, while the discharge from it was very
weakening. On the LIST of May DIR. Dogs
decided to perform tho skin grating
operation. Pieces Of skin were taken
from the arms Of four or five young men
and were placed on the scalded arms.
About three-fourths of the CRAFTS took root
and slowly grew till they covered tho
intervening space, and joining together af-
forded that protection which the scalded
arm needed. The arm was nearly healed
in six weeks, and it is now pronounced we'll.
There is not scar on its whole length, and
the skin is as soft and smooth as any part
of the child's body.

1t is hardly to DO supposed that the
French officers who witnessed the recent
review and manGuvres OF the German army
in Hanover, as they stood with notebooks
in hand to watch the artillery practice
were aware that the guns were served with
powder captured in Metz and other ar
senals during tho campaign which made
Germany an empire and France repub.
lie, and robbed the latter OF two choice
provinces. Yet such, il is said, was the fact
OF such powder there is still great store in
Germany, though it would only seom to
be thought suitable for the baser purpose Of
blank cartridges.

in room on the third floor Of the Half

During the night they were awakened by
the sound Of some animal scrambling in at
tho lower window. Then came sounds OF
scratching and Gathering on the floor below
and then upon the stairs. Thoroughly
alarmed, and, having no weapons but
pocket-knives, the boys now sprang up and
drew their bed across the door to bar the
entrance. The creature came to the door
and, after snuffing the cracks, endeavored
to push it open, The boys crowded the
bedstead against the door with all theii
might, but were in way to be over
powered, when, finding their voices, they
shouted loudly at the intruder, He took
fright at the shouting, and scuttled down
stairs and out of the window. The morn,

The Rcv. Ncill Erskino Prcssly, the
Missionary of the Associate Reformed
Church to Mexico, arrived at this
place Oh last Wednesday. 1t was q
most agreeable surprise to all of his
relatives and fricnds-none Of whom
had the least intimation Of his coming
until tho arrival of the train at tho
depot. 1t will be remembered that
more than two years ago Mr.. Pressly
was happily united in marriage to
Mrs. n. e. Rosboroueh, daughter of
Mr.. Henry l.. Elliott, one Of our most
esteemed fcllow-citizens. A few weeks
afterwards the missionary family, con-
sisting Of Mr.. and Mrs. Pressly and
Mary. and Jennie Rosborough, the
daughters Of Mrs. Prcssly, left 70.
their future home in Mexico. They
went first to the City Of Mexico,
where Mr.. Prcssly was to prepare
himself for his labors by acquainting
himself with the manners, the customs
and tho language Of the country. AT
ter year spent in the City Of Mexico,
he selected Tampico as his field of
labor; and for tho last year or more
he has been dcvoting his whole time
and energy to the sacred work in
, which he was engaged. He has had
to endure many trials and hardships
besides the great labors that dcvolvcd
upon him; but it is hoped that
much has been done towards chris
tianizing and instructing many of the
benighted inhabitants Of the country
around Tampico. Mrs. Prcsslv re-
| turned home last October with the
children, and since that time Mr..
Pressly has occupied, by invitation,
part Of tho Consular buildings il,
; Tampico, with the American Consul,
whose wifc also returned to the States.
Thus with the stars and stripes float
ing over him he would feel perfectly
safe, aud more at home than else
where; whilo the circumstances in
which they were placed would create
mutual sympathy between him and
the Consul which would bc very pleas
ant to both Of them. Mr.. Prcssly
will remain in this place until next
week, when he will go to North Caro-
lima to visit his father and family. He
will spend at least six weeks in this
country before returning to Mexico.
We welcome him to his native land,
and hope that happiness aud success
