Ma. HENRY HARDY


Dear SRI have your letter of the
10th inst. have also other letters from
parties in Wheeling upon this same sub
ject Of your removal from office 10 the In
dian Department.
regret that any controversy shonld
have arisen on this subject, and especially
that / should have been called upon 10
speak about it,
said to You at the tune you were dis
charged that we had a surplus of employees,
and that as you were only temporarily en-
ployed, you cO1ld no longer be retained.
Ii is due, however, TO candor to say, as |
did, beliVe, soon after you were discharg.
ed that complaints were made against you
by clerks in the Office that in their ascot
alton with you In and ont of the office YOU
used language in relation to the rebellion
not truly loyal, and that you were q condo
tiOHat Union man. The Secretary of the
Interior was also spoken to on this subject,
aud called my attention to it. WAS also
shown several articles in Baltimore pa
per, said to have been written by You,
which could not believe would emenate
from thoroughly loyal citizen. Thesechar-
ges and reports unquestionably FASTENED
your dismissal, and il is more than probable
that had it not been for these charges |
should have tried TO retain you, as you
were an efficient clerk.
do not wish my name connected with
this matter before the public.
Your ob't servant.
W. P. DoLE.
We presume the Associate is sati6ed now
that we knew what We were talking about
He will probably know hereafter that we
are not in the habit of making personal
assertions that We cannot maintain. The
Associate has now received uuietus
from headquarters, aud has probably a
better idea ofths accuracy of our Information
than he had before. Mr.. Dole gives the
Associate to understand very satisfacto-
rily why he was dismissed. The matter
was only important as a key to the kind
of writing which the Editor is now doing
for the Wheeling Psess. In that light only
We gave It any attention. Our aim mas |
to show that paper whose prineipal OF
large owner and pecuniaEy alder was the !
leading secessfonist Of the eity and vvhos. |

Some days ago it was asserted in our
paper that hon. W. H. Dole, United States
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, had said
that the Associate Editor and principal
writer for the Wheeling PrstS, was dismis-
sed from eIerkship in his Department al
Washington on account of his disloyalty
The Associate Editor was seemingly very
indignant at the idea of such charge
and after time and again unsuccessfully
demanding from us to tell him how we
knew that MI Dole had said so, he wrote
on to Mr.. Dole himself, to whom we re-
ferred him, and received for his reply the

Caution 10 the Public.

Every intelligent and thinking person must know
that remedies handed out for general use should
have their efficacy established by well tested expe-
riepce in the hands Of regularly educated physi-
clan whose preparatory study fits him for all the
duties he must fulfill yet the country is flooded with
poor nostrums and euTe-alls, purporting to be the
best in the world, which are not only useless, but
aIways injurious. The unfortunate should be PAR
TIcUIAR in selecting his physician, as it is lament
able vet incontrovertible fact that many syphitic
patients are made miserable with ruined constitutions
by NAL treatment from inexperienced physicians in
general practice; for it is point generally conceded
by the best syphiographers that the study man
agement ofthese complaints should engross the whole
time of those who would be competent and successful
in their treatment and cure The inexperienced gen
eral practitioner, having neither opportunity nor
time to make himself sufficiently acquainted with
their pathology comOny pursues one system oi treat
ment, in most cases making an indiscriminae use OF
that antquated and dangerous weapon, mercury.
More caution however. should be used by the syph.
ilitc patient, in consulting nominal physicians OF
the advertising class as nine tenths Of them are i'm
posters, who assume German, French, or other
Names and are without any claims to medical knowl-
edge These knavish rascals iniest all large cities,
and by means of their lying advertisements and pos
ters, they induce the unwary to enter their Peter
Funk 'insttutions," and numerically fleece them
and poison them with mercury. Persons living at a
distance in the country are more apt to be duped D
the living notices Of quacks than citizens.
In view Of the above facts, DR.. j. G. YOUNG
would say that he is the only regularly educated
physician in California now advertising, who de-
votes his whole time TO the treatment of venereal
diseases Office 75l Clay street. opposite the Plaza.

The END OF observation-disclosures
GOltz passed many years 10 anatomical ex-
animation Of thai delicate viscus, the dead
brain, endeavoring to discover some coinci.
dence between its marvellous structure and
its important uses. To this end, the whole
concentrated forces of his acute intellect
were directed. Sometimes be was elevated
by the hope that be had ascertained the
source of the reasoning faculty, and the
seat in which the passions are generated;
but these CLEANS of success were transient,
aud were succeeded by total obscurity. At
one period, be conceived that he had actu-
ally drawn aside the curtain. aud beheld the
mysterious processes that are performed in
the occult laboratory ofnature; but be con-
fessed himself deceived, and afterwards
acknowledged that the curtain itself was a
mere deluson. Exhausted by these sudden
alterations of hope and disappointment,
the fabric of his own understanding gave
way. and in moment Of despair he hanged
himself 10 bis dissecting room.

about 62 years ago, and it is said settled at

was an easy transit to the then wild lands
of Mississippi, about the time of the Jeffer-

The father of A. II. Stephens moved from
the northeast district of North Killingworth
62 years ago this coming summer, aud set
tied in Georgia. Probably the President
and Vice-President of the Rebel Confeder-
acy were born after their parents left Con-

ECHOES.

The ear cannot distinguish one SOUND
from another, unless there Is an interVal OF
one.ninth of second between the arrival OF
the two sounds. Sounds must, therefore,
succeed each other at an interval OF one
ninth of second 10 order to be heard dis
tinctly. Now, the velocity Of sound being
eleven hundred and twenty feet second,
10 one-ninth of second the sound would
travel one hundred and twenty-four feet
Repeated echoes happen when two OBJ
stacles are placed opposite to Que another,
as parallel walls, for example, which reflect
the sound successfully.
At Admath, 10 Bohemia, there is an echo
which repeats seven syllables three times.
At Woodstock, in England, there is Que
which repeats q sound seventeen times du-
ring the day, and twenty times during the
night. An echo in mthe villa Slmonetta,
near Milan, is said to repeat sharp sound
some thirty times audibly. The most cele-
brated echo among the ancents, was that
of the Metelli, at Rome, which, according
to tradition, was capable of. repeating the
first line of the Eneid, containing fifteen
syllables, eight times distinctly.
DR.. Birch describes all echo at Roseheatn,
Argylesnire, which, II Is said, does not now
exist. When eight or ten notes'were played
upon trumpet,llhey we're returned by this
echo upon key third lower than the
original notes, and shortly after upon a key
still lower. DIR. Page describes al echo 10
Fairfax county, Virginia, which possesses a
similar curious property. This echo gives
three distinct reflections, the second much
the most distinct Twenty notes played
upon flute are returned with perfect
clearness. But the most singular property
of this echo is, that some notes in the scale
are not returned in their places, bat are
supplied with notes which are either thirds,
ffths, or octaves.
There is surprising echo between two
barns, at Belyidere, Allegheny county, N.
Y. The echo repeats eleven times word
of one, two, or three syllables; it has been
heard to repeat thirteen times. BY placing
oneself in the centre between the two barns
there will be a double echo, one in the di-
recIion of each barn, and a monosyllable
will be repeated twenty-five times
A striking and beautiful effect Of echo is
produced in certain localities by the Swiss
mounlaineers, who contrve TO sing their
Rams des Vaches in such time that the re-
hected notes form an agreeable accompani-
ment to the air itself.
The Killarney notes are guile famous,
and resound with marvellous clearness to
the notes of bugle, as the traveller rows
frem point to point in the beautiful lake.

REFORM OF THE NAVY DEPARTMENT.-Th
bill recently reported by Senator Grimes,
in the U. S Senate, from the Committee on
Naval Affairs, proposes the complete reor-
ganizatiou of the Navy Department. 1t
creates eight bureaus, to wit: l. Yards aud
dock. 2. Equipments aud repairs. 3. Hy-
biography and lights (new). 4. Ordnance.
8. Construction aud repairs. 6. Steam en-.
gneering (newl 7. Provisions and cloth.
ing. 8. Medicine and surgery. The heads
of these bureaus not TO be below the rank
of commanders The first three grades to
receive salary of $500, and the five
others TO receive $4,000. The Assistant
Secretaryship is not nterfered with. The
Secretary is made responsible for the work
ing of his Department, but the heads Of bu-
reaus have the franking privilege. The
most important feature of the bill is that
the Secretary of the Treasury is required
to transfer to the Navy Department, the
entire Lighthouse business. The proposed
reforms will save several thousands of dol
lars annually, and will increase the eficien.
cy of the Department fully fifty per cent.
The Chief of the Bureau of Clothing is to be
taken from the present paymasters.
