from the letter Of the Secretary Of the

it was apparently 800. We quote
from the letter Of the Secretary Of the
Treasury:
The large apparent increase OF 1873
over 1871 Is accounted for in part by
the fact that the names Of 800 gaugers
and SSS stOrekeepers OF internal rev.
enue-total, I,8s7-were published in
the Blue Book for 1873 for the first
time, but such officers had been in
the service in larger numbers since
1865. The increase Of 800 In 1876
over 1873 is accounted for by the fact
that in the frst-named year the
names of ST deputy collectors of In
ternal revenue were published in the
Blue Book for the first time, although
even q larger number Of that class of
officers bad been in the service since
1862, and the establishment, by act Of
March 3, 1875, OF the national bank
redemption agency added I52 EN-
ployes to the Treasury Office and 30
to the Office Of the Comptroller Of the
Currency, the amount OF whose sala-
ries Is reimbursed by the national
banks.
Let us summarize: During john
sons term Of four years there was,
according to the books, anincrease in
the Treasury Department of 1885;
during six years Of Grants admins
tration there was an apparent increase
Of 1914. But the Secretary shows
that of this book increase large
share-1 1897 consisted OF employees
who had been in the service of the
department since 1865; and another
large share-900-who had been in
the service of the department since
1862 and another small share--152-
who constitute the redemption agen-
cy force, and are paid by the national
banks-in all, 1888, leaving unac-
counted for AN increase of 1875 in six
years; q little more than 200 per an
mum. LII we add the 1857 gaugers
and stOrekeepers in service from 1856,
but not entered in the official regis
ter until 1873, we find that the in
crease during Johnson's term of four
years was 3,722, more than three
times the increase of six years of
Grants term that is to say, over 400
per cent.greator increase under John
son than under Grant. Hereafter,
when the New York .Sn, makes a
statement, it may be considered pai-
ma .facie false, and proof demanded.
The country is indebted to Senator
Cragin, of New Hampshire, for the
tabulation Of the departments reports
upon which this article Is based, and
which 80 clearly demonstrate the ut
ter untruth of the SUMS statements.

When / see men sacrificing peace
Of mind and health of body to the
insane pursuit CT wealth, living in
ignorance Of the character OF their
children who are growing up around
them, cutting themselves of from
the highest and pnrest pleasures of
their natures; and so perverting
their humanity that that which was
sought as a means insensibly comes
to be followed as an end, I say to
myself, patch on both knees and
gloves on.
When I see thousands squandered
for selfishness and ostentation, and
nothing bestowed for charity, when
/ see fine ladies bestained and beiew-
elled, cheapening the tolls OF dress
makers, and with harsh words
embittering the bitter bread of de-
pendence, when zee the poor
turned away from proud houses,
where the crumbs Of tables would
be to them feast, I think OF the
patch on both knees with gloves on.

This table is official, and it is cor
rect. Let us compare IL with the Ia
BILE of tho San. The SIN table places
the number Of the civil list in 1869 ut
| 53,7l9; II was in fact but 1920 an
error of $3.50. The SIN table places
the number Of the civil list In 1876 Mt
96,7I6; II was in fact but 62,172-an
error of 31,5ii. Now let us see what
tho actual increase Of the civil list
was during the period lSG5-ls75, In
what departments, how brought
about, and whether necessary, or cor
rupt. In 1865 there were In the en-
ploy OF all the departments OF the
government 46,0Ss persons In 1876
this number had been enlarged to
62,l72-an increase OF l6,0si. In what
departments did the increase occur :?
We answer, in the Postofiice and the
Treasury-ll ,35i In the former, and
g, l49 In the latter; In all II, 400. That
Is TO say, we find that In the five de-
pariments-State, Interior, War, Ma.
Wy and Justice, Chased together
there snos a decrease Of three hundred
and sirteen. We have cornered the
increase let us see how the Post
Office increase OF PSI came about.
The largest part Of ito, 665- consists
of as many new poSt.masters appoint

the offices were increased about 3,OVO
as corn pared with 1869. In 1873 the
total increase rose to rs 900, and In
1878 IL reached 10000. This constant

power and day Of reckoning would
never come.
OF course, the appearance of these
statements in the san Is prin,a:tdcie
evidence of their utter falsity. They
are false, as we shall proceed to show.
Ii Is perhaps scarcely worth while to
call attention TO the fact that the sum-
ming up In the body of the editorial
Is at variance with the table. Thus
ID Is said that In 1869 the civil list
numbered 81, 2O6, while according to
the table II numbered 53,7l9; and
that In 1875 II numbered "a, ll9, while
according TO the table 1t numbered
ZIG. These discrepancies merely
show that the editor Of the San Is
much moro expert at classifying than
at mathematics. But TO the facts !:
On the 24th of July last q resolution
calling upon heads of departments
for the number OF civil officers In the
employ of each was adopted. This
resolution was provoked by the state
ment of Senator Merrimon, of North
Carolina, that the civil list had been
increased from 57,605 in 1871 to 81, ll9
In 1876. Finally, on the 10th inst,
the last Of the department reports
was received. These reports cover
the period 1869 and 1876, both inclu-
sive, and are AS follows:
