Henry E. Highton, representing Mrs.
Alice Edith Blythe, argued the case on be-
half of his client yesterday. He quoted
literally from several novels, and also from
Shakespeare, TO illustrate the manner in
which claimants advance their rights to an
estate III litigation. He maintained that
Blythe died in the arms of woman with
whom he had on a hundred occasions ex-
pressed his desire to end his days, and that
woman is a natve-bOrn American, not a
foreigner with an obscure claim to Blylhe's
millions,

WEDNESDAY. JULY is, 1890.
GEN. RUSHING AND THE "TRUE AMER
iCANs

The True american of July I'd criti-
cised some recent pension advertisements
that have appeared in 1t. Its remarks
were condemnatory of the new pension
law. Here is Gen. Rusling's reply, which
speaks for itself:
To the Editor Of the True american
Dear Sir-My attention has just been
called to your editorial of yesterday, re-
fleeing on my pension advertisement and
others.
May respectfully say, that while take
no responsibility for the wild and erron-
eous advertisements of others, l stand by
my own as true In fact and right In law
and morals. Evidently you have not read
or duly considered the new disability pen
sion law, or you would not characterize
it as enormous" and "villanous," and
say that to get pension now ''there is no
necessity to prove anything more than the
nominal service which the public records
show"
This is almost as erroneous as Bishop
Potier's silly statement at Yale College
the other day, that under the new law
ssevery skulking camp-follower and de-
etIttT cOuiu uOW Sct pcuolous WY
the new law requires 1st-That the sol
der should have served during the rebell-
ion at least ninety days in U. s. Army or
Navy; 2d-That he should have received
an honorable discharge. and 3d-That
he Ia now physically or mentally disabled
from manual labor and unable to earn q
support by his daily labor. In other
words, II an honorably discharged officer
or soldier is now unable to support him
self by hard work, by reason of wounds
or disease (not his own faulty, this law
grants him pension of from So to $12 a
month. That is all there is of this Evil
famous" law.
II is the same law, substantially, that
President Cleveland vetoed two years ago,
Notwithstanding it then passed both
Houses of Congress by large majority,
including scores OF Democratic votes. II
is the same law that the Grand Army Of
the Republic and all other soldier organi-
cations OF any consequence have been Pc
titioning for for years. II will take fifty
thousand old soldiers Gas estmated) out
of our poorhonses, and make them COM
Portable the rest of their days. And
stand by 1t, every word of it, as wise
policy and true craftsmanship in this year
of grace 1890. think know something
of the soldiers of New Jersey, and am
authorized to speak for them somewhat,
and declare that nincty-nine hnndredths
OF them or more favor this new law.
II it is 30 ''v:lainous" and enormous, !"
will you kindly explain why Gov Albeit
adveriises that he also will push claims
under this new law2
Very respectfully,

A strange discovery was made Mt one of
the towns on the upper Niger by Com
mander Devoust aud his comrades. They
found a piece of evidently very old Euro
pean pottery. II was fixed upon the sum

natives told the travellers that it had been
given them near the beginning OF this
century by white man who was going
down the river. From all the Information

no other conclusion than the donor Of this
little vase was Mungo Park, the pioneer of
Of African exploration in the past hundred
