GILTILLAH, THE late treasurer of
the United States, who has retired
On account of ill-health, and to fol-
low a persuit requiring less respon-
Utility. is just such a man as the
government should hold fast to. It
is said of him that his cash balanced
every night before he went home,
Or he did not go. He carried the
intricate combinations to the great
vaults in his head, and had them
also secreted somewhere in case
anything happened to him. To one
person, the secretary Of the treas
uTy, the place where these eombi-
nations were seereted was revealed.
No one person knew the combina-
t0ns-all of them-and no one but
himself and the secretary knew
HBere they could be found. His
sfice has been rigidly run on genu.
inc business principles. Once a
secretary of the treasury tried to
introduce politics there, and wrote a
peremptory demand for the: appoint
meat Of a person. Gillian marched
into the secretary's room and said
that he would not have the man
there, and that was the end of it.
Said ne, " L am the guardian Of ali
this money, and 1 propose to have
nobody in that Office whom I eannet
control. That is all I have got to
say" and that is all that was said.
