TROOPS NOT REMOVED.

A dispatch from Washington says
that at Cabinet meeting yesterday 1t
was decided to let the troops remain IN
the South. The news gatherer does
not condescend to explain what is
meant by letting troops remain in the
South. Surely, there can be no objec-
ton to troops remaining in the South,
If they are not kept there for political
purposes. The Federal Government
might garrison every city and town in
South Carolina and Louisiana with
troops, without word of unfavorable
comment from the people of those
States, if they were put there for the
same purposes that troops are stationed
in San Francisco or New York city.
1. is only when they interfere ib the
domestic affairs of States that their
presence is objected to by the people.
Packard is entrenched in the old St.
Louis hotel in New Orleans, which he
digni6es by the name of State House.
He retains possession OF the archives
of the State and claims by virtue of
that possession to be Governor of the
State. In this, be is supported by
Federal troops, which Grant declared
inst before he left the White House
must not any longer be used for politi-
cal purposes, Now, in the face of this
declaration, the Cabinet has decided to
keep troops,in the South. which means
that Chamberlain and Packard are to
be maintained while longer by the
General Government.
The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1877-03-21

1t is understood that the Board OF
Engineers which have been examining
the foundation Of the Washington mon
ument to thoroughly ascertain WHISTLER
it is sufficient to sustain the weight OF
the completed structure, have reported
in favor of the suficieney of the foun-
dation, and the appropriation OF $2oV.-
600 has become available.
The report that Packard is inclined
to violence in New Orleans has been
the subject of much comment in Adj
ministration circles ut Washington.
Upon representation to the President
that Packard may be under the impress
sion that such action on his part would
influence an early determination by the
Government, Hayes said that such
views would indicate poor opinion OF
the Judgment, and worse opinion OF
the firmness, of the ADMINISTRATION.
Several highly distinguished Euro
pean officers, who nave been engaged
in investigating the strength of the
Turkish army, state that the official
estimates are vastly exaggerated. The
Turks have on the Danube frontier and
in Bosnia and Herzegovina only l59, 600
men and 225 cannon. This force they
are preparing to strengthen with .
corps of $4,000 men. They have on
the Asiatic frontier about Is, 900 men
and 120 cannon. and altogether their
army number 259, 600 men.

A. NEW. DEPARTURE

NesEly all the heads of Departments
at Washington have issued circulars in
which, they inform all civil employees
of the Government that hereafter re-
movals' Will be made for cause only.
and promotions viii be ordered upon
the sole ground of merit. Advance
meDtin the service will depend upon
good behavior and efficiency, and NOT
upon external Influences No political
test isrequired beyond an earnest sup
port of the Constitution and proper
respect for the rights of citizens guar
anteedy thereby. This 10 certainly a
new departure, and it is attributed to
the influence of, Evarts and Schurz.
Sherman, Secretary of the Treasury, is
the only head OF a, DepArtmsnt who
has not yet issued instructions of this
character. although IL was shown by
Bristow that no Department of the
Government stood more In need of re-
form than that of the Treasury.

A man named Joseph L. Lewis, who
