Farragut been placed on the retired list when
he was sixty-two, the country would have lost
a most valuable part of his protracted service,
for he was over sixty-one when he led the
expedition which captured New Or
leans. So, too, veterans who are
conducting the Prussian campaign
against the French give indisputable evidence
of the vigor and efficiency of men whose
years border closely on the three score and
ten limit. King William is over seventy
Won Moltke and Won Room have nearly at
tanned that age, while Marshals. Bazaine,
MacMahon, and Canrobert, on the French
side, are all over sixty. In our naval service
every old naval officer with family to sup
port must look with considerable apprehen-
sion at the approach of his sixty-second year,
knowing as he does that it will bring with it
reduced instead of increased pay, and retire
ment instead of continued honor and USE
fulness.
Recent acts, also, have rendered the status
of retiring officers less agreeable than ever
before. Formerly they might be detailed to
command shore stations, and they have even
been sent to sea in command of squsdrons,
receiving while in the performance of such
duty the full pay and allowances of their
rank. Four years ago one of our squaarons
was commanded by an Admiral who had been
retired on account of age, but still fulfilled
the duties of his position in every particular.
The rule is now that retired officers shall not
be called upon to perform any active duty.
They must, therefore, be content to practi-
cally abandon the service to which they are
still attached. In death, perhaps they may
have a naval funeral; but having grown old
and grey-headed in their countrys service,
they must in life submit to be laid aside. If
officers become incapable of duty from any
cause, they must expect to be retired, but it
is gross injustice to deserving class of pub
lie servants to force them into private life
only because they have happened to live
longer than the majority of their professional
associates

'the almighty dollar" that does the business.
A general course of opposition to the alleged
abuses and the financial measures of the
party in power is slow work. The Demo-
cratic managers, in q great alliance of power
full corporations and monopolies, can fight
the enemy with their own weapons and upon
this plan of operations their success in New
York gives the key to success throughout the
Union. Principles in the shape of abstrac-
tions are good in their way, but the seven
Democratic principles of John Randolph,

RETIRED NAVAL OFFICERS.

From the N. Y. Times
The present system of retiring officers of
the navy is complained of by them as work.
ing Injustice to very many who deserve some
thing better of their country. If an officer
becomes disabled in battle or by sickness
while on service, it seems very proper that
he should be relieved from the performance
of duties for which he is physically unfit and
that Los pay should, in that case, be proper
tionately reduced. Some such system of re-
tirement or pensioning is practised in every
civilized country which maintains a national
armament. Very often these retired officers
are able to engage in civil pursuits and thus,
with the aid of their allowance, acquire very
comfortable living. This, however, can only
occur when officers are comparatively young,
for when they have passed the meridian of
life, and are upon its decline, it is not often
possible for them to enter upon any new
avocation. The service has then taken their
best years, and while effectually dispensed
with as far as their former occupation is con-
cerned, they cannot hope to adopt a sub
stitute.
But officers may become superatnuated,
and be fit subjects for retirement on account
of age, as well as because of physical disa-
bility. In the army they may be retired upon
their. own application after forty or more
consecutive years of service, or can be sent
before a retiring board for examination
whenever the War Department may so order
There is no great injustice about that, but
in the navy, when the name of an officer has
been borne on the register for forty-fve
years, or when he attains to the age of sixty
two, he is retired whether he be physically
and mentally vigorous or not. According
to this plan, therefore, length of
service, instead of comforting honor, car
ries with it practically a punishment in the
shape of enforced retirement and reduced
pay. The injustice of such a rule must be
manifest to the least professional reader Age
is no criterion as to a mans physical and in-
tellectual vigor. Many are as capable at
sixty-two as others are at forty-fiye, and tho
only just way of determining whether an
officer should be retired is to have him ex-
! amined by suitable board. Had Admiral
