NATIONAL CAPITAL.
The Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Department Files His Report
for the Fiscal Year.

Assistant Secretary Bussy, Of the In
terror Department, has filed his report
for the fiscal year. The report reviews
the work Of the board Of pension ap-
peala. II shows that January /, 1891,
there were b,028 appeals pending before
the board, as against $3.50 July |, 1891.
Mr.. Bussey points out several defects in
pension legislation, and makes a num-
Der OF recommendation looking to their
correction. He asks that Congress be
requested to enact law that shall ex-
presaly authorize the department to
treat all improper, illegal and excessive
payments Of pensions, whether caused
by fraud or mistake, as payments TO be
charged against the current pension,
with view to read just or equal the cur
rent pension payments within the dis-
erection OF the Secretary. He suggests
that in case of insane, idiotic or other
wise helpless children Of deceased pen
eionerH, Of pensionable age, the limit be
abolished, 30 as tn admit such children
at any date TO the pension roll. He
also recommends that persons who
served in the Confederate army and
afterwards enlisted In the navy Of the
United States be given the same PEN
sion accorded those who served the Con-
federate cause and then enlisted In the
army Of the United States.
Under the authority Of the act Of
Congress, approved September 2S, 1890,
the Director Of the Mint has prepared d
new design for silver coin, which has
been approved by the Secretary Of the
Treasury. The design is intended for
half dollars, quarters and dimes. On
the diverse face Of the coin Is female
head representative Of liberty looking 10
the right with an olive leaf and Pho
necian cap on the back Of the head. On
the band, or flllet, over the front OF the
head is the word Liberty" and over
the head at the top Of the coin, In God
We Trust.n Around the medallion are
thirteen stars, and at the bottom the
date Of coinage. On the reverse side
appears the seal Of the United States,
as adopted In l7S2, an eagle with open
wings. On the breast d shield argent,
six pellets gules, chief azure. In his
dexter claw the eagle holds an olive
branch, representing peace, and In the
sinister claw q nheaf Of thirteen arrows,
representing war. In his beak the eagle
holds scroll containing ''E Pluribus
