OBITUARY.
HON. ISAAC TOIEEY.

At o'clock this morning the Hon. Isaac
TOucey, who held the position of Secretary of
the Navy during the Buchanan administration,
died at his residence in Hartford, Conn. He
was born in 1898, and entered the profession of
the law. He was q gentleman of culture and
refined tastes, and his abilities, though not of
marked original cast were such as to be practi-
cally available in public life. From 1885 to 1899
he was member of the National House of Rep
resentatives; in 1916 he was elected Governor of
COnnecticut President Polk appointed him to
the position of United States Attorney-Gen
and during President Pierce's administration he
served term in the United States Senate, from
the year 1852 to 1857. President Buchanan
early in his administration, appointed him Secre-
tary of the Navy, and he continued to discharge
the duties of that office until the Inauguration of
President Lincoln.
During the ''times that tried mems souls, in
the six months of sorrow and dismay that
stamped the mark of infamy upon Buchanan 5
administration, the name of the Secretary of
the Navy was connected with disloyal and trea-
sonable deeds. 1t was charged that he threw
all the powerful influence of his department in
favor of the rebellous South and many facts
gave strong weight to this view. The ships of
the Union were scattered abroad among ports
Of the world thousands of miles away and
many weary months were spent after the fall of
Fort Sumter in recalling our widely-dispersed
fleets. Some of the best men-of-war were dis
posed as to fall into the hands of the seceders
and had not the officers of the navy been made
in natures pure mould, the new administration
would have been robbed of its strong right arm
of service by the surrender of their charges. 1t
will be remembered how many noble ships were
sacrificed at Fortress Monroe in order that they
might not be captured; and the inference is
plain that they were thus designedly stationed
to fall into the hands of traitors.
"The evil that men do lives after them" and
we conceive it to be the duty of Independent
| journalists to place on record the condemnation
of acts henous in intent, or, in the most merei-
| full view, so lamentably deficient in true manli-
ness as to rob our country of her power Mr.
Touceys closing years of life have been spent in
| retirement at Hartford. The people have been
| glad to overlook his name, and the announce
ment of his death cannot but recall the heart
| sickening acts of his life.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Ohicial information

Internal Revenue Appointments.
The President has appointed Gilbert Robert
son, Jr., Assessor of Internal Revenue for the
Fifteenth district, vice Philip H. Nehr
suspended; s. Pulver Heath, Asses
sor for the Eighteenth district, vice
Alexander II. Palmer, suspended; and
John S. Masters, Collector of the Fifteenth
district of New York, vice James Forsyth, sus-
pended. There were no charges against the
suspended gentlemen, but it was thought change
would be promotive of the public interest
Thomas L. Tullock, Appointment Clerk in the
Treasury Department, was to-day appointed by
the President Collector of Internal Revenue for
the District of Columbia, in place of Flynt, de-
ceased.

A New Trouble for Rosecrans.

The Cincinnati Commercial says that the
opinion has been expressed to us by resident
of California that General Rosecrans considers
himself citizen of that State, and that, acting
in that capacity, he has on several occasions
voted for State and county officers. Having
domiciled there, and exercised the rights of a
citizen, he cannot be regarded as a citizen of
Ohio and to become one it would be necessary
for him to return here and remain during the
period required by law of the citizens of any
other State, before he can exercise the priyi-
leges of full citizenship. In other words, being
a citizen of California, he could not return here
and be a qualified voter in October, and if not n
qualified voter, he is ineligible to the office of
Governor of Ohio.
1t would be curious circumstance, after all
the defamation that has been INDUCED in by
the Democratic press touching the evils of car
pet-bagging, if it should turn out that the De-
mocracy of Ohio have been guilty not only OF
nominating a carpet-bagger, but one who has
not resided in the State a sufficient length of
time since domiciled in another State to make
him qualified voter, or eligible to Office if
elected.
