MEXICAN AND FRORIDA WAR PENSIONS.
Representative Rice, of Missouri, was
to-day Instructed by the Committee on
Invalid Pensions to report to the House
as substitute for all pending bills Of the
same character the bill which has been
adopted by the committee to grant PEN
slons for service in Mexican and
sundry Indian wars. The bill pro-
Nldes for pension of IS per month as
follows: To all soldiers of the Mexican,
Black Hawk and Florida wars who served
not less than thirty days, or who, in con-
nectl0n with their service have been men,
toned by name by Congress, and to the
widows of soldiers who have not since
married, provided that they were mar
rled at the time of service of
the soldier through whom they
may claim pension. The bill provides
for equaliZing this class of pensions by
increasing to IS those which are now of
less amount. The only persons excluded
from the benefits of the bill by reason of
having taken part IN the war OF the rebel
lion are those who have since failed to
take advantage of the act of Congress
providing for pardons, or who are by that
act expressly excluded. Representative
Rice was instructed to ask a suspension
OF the rules for the passage of the bill on
the next committee suspension day.

Among the nominations sent to the Sem

George Stephenson's s'Rocket," and the
magnificent locomotives of to-day, are built
upon the same general principle, yet the ma
chine with which the great engineer astonished
us age, Is interesting now only as an illustra-
ton OF the beginning of the invention. There
were plasters with holes in them long before
BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER
surprised both the public and the physicians:
and the triumph of the Capcine is founded
upon the partial successes or the utter failures
of its predecessors. Everything of value in
the old porous plaster is.retained in the Cap
cine; but at this poiIa all comparison ends and
contrast begins. For examples:
The old plasters were slow in their action:
the Capcine is quick and sure.
The old plasters lacked the power to do more
than to impart slight, temporary relief in
cases easy of treatment; the Capcine pene-
trates the system and permanently cures the
troubles for which it is recommended.
The old plasters depended for any good re-
suits they might attain upon an accident of
their makers and the naked faith of their
Wearers; the Benson's reaches its ends by
means OF the scientific combination OF the rare
medicinal ingredients which it contains.
In brief, the old plasters, like Stephenson's
discarded engine, are switched off the track.
while the Benson's goes on its way winning
golden opinions from all sorts of people,
Yet in this very fact lies the leading danger
to the people who buy and use this reliable
and scientific remedy. Hypocrisy is the
tribute vice pays to virtue" Imitation is the
concession failure makes to success. Benson's

A Model Plan for Distributing Es-


The Barnesyille Gazette gives the fol.
lowing incident of the division of a large
lntestate estate of the late J. R. Jenkins.
of Pike county, exhibiting proper meth
cd of distributing such an estate without
resort to the uncertainty and perplexities
of law in the distribution of the same:
A few days since we noted in these col
umns the death of j. X. Jenkins. ESQ.
BY agreement of the children. Mr.. p. +.
Matthews, a sOn-in-law of the deceased.
was made attorney in fact to take the es-
tate, collect the dues, pay the debts and
provide for distribution among the heirs.
This dispensed with the expense and
time necessary for an administration
as provided for by law. A sale of the
perishable property was had at once and
everything brought a fair price. On
Wednesday, after the sale on Tuesday.
nVe appraisers of the landed estate, CON
slstlng of Messrs. NJ. G.. Howard, W, r.
Murphey, j. L. BlalOck, II. Hunt and +.
w. Rose, were agreed upon. These five
gentlemen went over the land and then
divided II INTO five shares, there being four
children and the widow to heir the plt.1
erty. The divisions were numbered and
valued. Tickets containing the number
with the property specified and the yalua-
tion were placed in hat, and a negro was
selected by the five appraisers, who drew
the tickets from the hat as the names were
called. Mrs. Jenkins, the mothers name.
was first called and she drew ticket mum
ber 4, which contained $50 acres of land
adjoining DIR. Lavender's place, which has
on it about 5000 select fruit trees, set out
but short time since. This ticket was
valued at So, 400.
Mrs. p. +. Matthews name was then
called, and the negro drew out ticket No.

adjoining the property of DR.. Wright and
DIR. Lavender, and valued at SO, 400
The next name was Mr.. Mays Jenkins,
who drew ticket No. ), which entitled the
holder to all the unsOld lots of land and
the residence in Barnesville now occupied
by Mr.. j. F. Mendes. valued at $4,000.
MIR. w. {. jenkins then drew ticket
number l, which contained the dwelling
and 81 acres of land valued at $3,750.
Mr.. j. K. Jenkins, Jr., then drew ticket
number 2, which embraced the Graddick
house and 26 acres, with 225 acres added.
valued at So, 300 The distributiye
estate valued at less than this sum will
be paid an amount to make it $3.50 by
those whose estate was valued
at more. Thus our readers
VIII see that in less than one months
time after the decease of Judge Jenkins,
his very handsome estate, amounting to
about twenty thousand dollars, had been
divided by his heirs and the whole bust
ness virtually settled to the satisfaction of
all concerned, We commend this exam
pie to the world as being one that any
family should be proud Of How much
better for these three brothers, sister and

warmest ties of family affection, than to

Russian Securities Quoted Low.
LONDON, Dec. 19.-The correspondent
of the Times at Berlin says: 1.-The only
topic engaging the attention here is the
relations between Germany and Russia.
Russian exchange was never lower on the
Berlin BOurse since the battle of Plevna
than now. One hundred rOuble notes, of
the nominal value of 32O marks,
were quoted on Monday at
1875 marks offered. The panic
sees, mainly due to an article in the
VoSSiSche Zeitung concerning the eche-
lOning of the Russian army on the Cali
clan frontier. This is regarded in well
informed circles, both i'll Berlin and
Vienna, as absurd. But its effect on
business shows that an uneasiness has
been created in the mind of the public by
what is known as Prince Bismarck's
newspaper campaign. This consists of
various articles recently published laying
stress on the purely dual defensive nature
of the AustrO-German alliance"
The hreutz Zeitnnq says that as all
kinds of symptoms and rumors were re-
ported from Russia of a tendency opposed
to the amicable sentiments of the Czar
ana NJ. DeGiers, it was deemed expedient
to throw out a reminder that the prescient

PARIS, Dec. 19.-During the debate on
the budget in the Senate to-day, NJ. Leon
Say praised the Cabinet for negotiating in
the matter of uncOmpleted railways, with
the view ofasigning their completion as
portion of the public works to be executed
He said he hoped and believed that the
state of the finances was more favorable
than the report of the budget committee
supposed. The difficulties of the situation,
he said, were the outcome of a series of poor
harvests, and the Gloss of capital through
speculation and laXity in the collection
of taxes. The anticipations of surplus
had proved fallacious in some instances,
but he believed the existing state of things
would be only temporary. 1t was useless
to propose fresh taxation, but it was
necessary to stop the growth of ex-
pendituree, which must be proportionate
to that of income. 1t behooTed statesmen
to place the finances on a sound basis in
order to prepare the country for a renewal
OF the powers of the Chambers in 1885. as it
was especially advisable not to accumu-
late difficulties for that period. M. Saw
will resume his speech tomorrow.
