The FEMAIE CLERK.-So many womcn, says
Washington correspondent. hold otllco htt'ng'
~ in the departments, so mu,h good work Is
done by them, so many public men OF good
service have died and left no legacy but the iu-
fuenoe that gives the ladies of their families
an i'll paid official position, that it is not easy to
say anything against the introduction OF women
in the departments. There arc abuses D9t
no more than 10 any community. La one cul.,
Gus matter is this community IN once o,S.anu'
from any other. The announcement OF mar
rage is delayed to the last moment Hero IS q
recens marriage notice:
Marshall-Sadler.- this city on the 3lst OF
January, 1878, at Trinity Church, by rev.
Thomas G. Addison, rector, 1. W. z; MAR'
sHALL. of New York city, to ANNIE U. SAD
:LER, formerly Of Newburg, Ohio.
You will notice the date. 1t arises from enc
If the unwritten rules Of the department. which
holds that while other things being equal
married man is to be kept in office in prefer
enoe to on unmarried man. A woman ID to bc
discharged Immediately on marriage. Both
bride and groom in the belated notice above held
Office, and the notice appeared only when one
lost place. All over tho departments are la
dies continuing to draw salary in their maiden
names long after they haVo Inc lega' flHlit 70
assume their husbands name.
FINDING FAULT.-It is tho cnscst thing IN
the world to find fault. It's easy to say that
nobody is honest. II is easy to say that the
church is to blame for it, 1t is easy to say that
the church would be all right if tho minister
would preach and do as he ought. But 1t lsI {
easy to look On the best side. to sec that there
are hundreds OF faithful presOhers, thousands
of honest men and women, countless asts OF
Justice, character and humanity which oct
weigh all the grumbling of all tho erumbieIs,
90 that it is really only the finest dust iu the
balance. Let US be fair and cheerful. The
world is not all wrong. Everybody isn't ras-
cal. Our ncighbors arc not trying to cheat US.
The church is doing good work tor the world,
and even the GROWERS are not half as disagree
able as they seem.
