The KELSEY MYSTERY. Those people
who have regarded the Kelsey case us
having been definitely set at rest by the
card of Sanford Brown Of Huntington,
which recently appeared 10 the New
York papers, must have their faith in the
general truthfulness Of the human family
considerably shaken by the developments
of the past few days--thc conclusion OF
which is not yet. Sanford Brown insists
in his card, and expresses his willingness
to undergo the ordeal Of an oath. that he
positively saw Charles G.. Kelsey in Du-
anc street, in New York city, some time
in October last Sanford Browns rcla
bility in this instance appears to have
been brought in -erious question. Three
detectives in the employ Of State authori.
ties have been sojourning in Huntington
the scene Of the supposed murder, far
some weeks past, and they have, il is uu-
Jerstood. secured undouhted evidence that
Kelsey was brutal y murdered after beiuf
tarred and feathered. Nelscy's two
brothers, who have been working dill
gently with the DETECTIVES, aud who have
of course, given them all the information
in their power to impart, stated to re
porter that the evidence alreadf secured
when brought out upon the Trial Of th'
Samminses, in April, will not only aston
ish the community, but e-ilhlish the gull
Of more than one person who may nov
consider himself secure. II is also init
mated that upon the trial Of SAmmins
important testimony for the prosecution
will be given by the captain Of the yawl
boat, which, it is alleged, was used OIL
the night of Kclsey's disappearance
These facts, and others which have com,
to the knowledge OF the authorities. Leaf
to the conclusion that the Kelsey case i
much more serious than many person
would care to admit.-RutiaM GloIe.

PLANNING" THE CIVIL SERVICE RULES.
Some time ago, one of Gen. Buffers
literary gentlemen out oflivcry announced
with becoming solemniiy to not very
much impressed public that the general
was getting ready to liam" the civil ser.
vice relormers with a "test.case " lie
has now got ready and his case proves
to be this Lemuel b. Gregory, who
served under the general in the late war,
and is still suffering from his wounds,
went into a competitive examination,
passed above the minimum standard
and didn't get the appointment. Reason :
Forty Of the CONF citing candidates passed
better examinations, and the civil service
rules forbade the consideration of his
name. Gen. Butler quotes an old rcsolu.
ton Of Congress to the effect that wound.
ed veterans should be given the preference
in appointments TO civil Offices asks Mr.
Richardson whether "a mere finical pref.
ercncc because Of answering few unim.
portant questions" should be allowed to
override law Of the land enacted in the
interest Of crippled soldiers but for
whose valor the civil service board would
have had no soft cushions to sit on now,
which they enjoyed during the war while
the soldiers were in the field :" and clos.
es by giving notice that he is going to
make this "tcst case between the de
partmont and legislative power Mr..
Richardson, who docs not seem so badly
frightened as might have been expected,
replies in substance that Mr.. Gregory
was passed over in strict compliance with
the rules, and that these rules, in his
judgment, have tine force of the law -
