PENSIONS.
Rulings and Decisions by the Assistant Secretary or
the Interior and the Commissioner of Pensions.

Rulings and Decisions by the Assistant Secretary OF
the Interior and the Commissioner of Pensions.
Assistant Secretary Bussey recently rem
dered a decision in the pension claim of Will
liam Powell, late of Co. d, 47th Pa. The claim.
ant in his application for pension alleges that
on Jan. 8, 1885, while in camp at Cadwalader,
Philadelphia, Pa. waiting to be mustered out
and paid, he was walking in the barracks, when
Corporal of his company threw at him FIVE
gallon demijohn, which struck him on the left
leg under the knee, inficting severe wound
from which he has never recovered.
The claim was originally rejected on the
grounds that the injury was received after the
applicants discharge from the service, and that
if in the service the injury had ne connection
with his military duty, and hence was not PEN
sionable. From this latter view the Assistant
Secretary dissents, and directs that if upon
further examination it is found that the claim
ants actual separation from the service did not
occur until after he incurred the disability,
though his discharge papers were dated some
two weeks previous thereto, that he be given a
pension.
Secretary Bassey also rendered favorable
decision in the cases of Sarah futile, widow of
Josiah Tuttle, late of Co. B, 64th Ohio, and
John Cox, late of Co. G, 59th Ohio. In the
former case the question involved was one OF
fact In the case of Cox the records show that
while running the claimant was tripped by a
comrade, falling heavily and breaking his col.
lar bone. Following the decision in the Am.
norman case, pension is granted.

The old Monitor Puritan" which is now
being reftted at the Brooklyn Navy Yard will
be an ugly customer for any of the European
vessels to tackle. She will carry in her turrets
four 10-inch breech-loading rifles, elevated,
trained and loaded by machinery protected by
If inches Of steel armor, and firing proiectiie
weighing 500 pounds, capable of piercing %
inches of wrought iron at the muzzle, or III
inches at the distance of mile. The Puritan
need fear but few vessels afoat. In addition
to the heavy guns she will carry secondary
battery, consisting Of two six-pounder and two
e-pounder rapids FIRE Hotchkiss rifles, two
37-millimeter revolving cannon, and two Cat
lings. She will have a torpedo-net of heavy
steel rings, which can be rugged out all around
the vessel, and so protecting her from torpedo
attacks. There will be a powerful search light
for use at night.

Ak ODD REQUEST.

In the mail Of Hon. Robert p. Porter, recently
appointed Superintendent Of the Census, was a
letter IN which the writer says the President
had evidently intended to appoint him to the
place, as his name was similar to that Of the
new Superintendent and that he was from
Indiana. In support Of his ease he also men
toned the fact that he had served in the Goth
Ind. during the war. and therefore thought
there could not possibly be doubt as TO his
being the Robert r. Porter whom Gen. Harri-
son intended TO appoint. He was willing to
waive the honor Of the Office, however, if the
incumbent would divide the enolumeuts.
Sup't Porter replied to the communication in
iOcular vein, but decidedly refused to share his
salary with his Indiana namesake

DAYS that are Passed.

The days Of the Argonauts in Cali
fornia We're days the like of which will
never be seen again. Cargoes of pro-
visions were sent to San Francisco
when the excitement over the gold
discovery began, but it was we'll nigh
impossible to get them unloaded after
their arrival. Stevedores refused $40
per hour. In many cases the entire
ships crew, from the captain down,
left their vessel to rot at the wharves
and hurried to the gold fields. The
temptation was simply irresistible.
There was an over supply Of tobacco
and liquors, which formed large part
of every cargo, as they were deemed
most salable to miners, and it is re-
lated that on one occasion caddies filled
with tobacco were used to fill the holes
in the streets. Liquors of all kinds
were cheap, but staples We're high,
nails, for instance, selling at 81 a
pound, gum boots at SIS, tallow can
dies at So a pound and matches at 81 a
box. And it was gold money or dust
every time
