Gently printed IN these columns the hearing
which he demanded Upon the return of
Postmaster-G General Gresham to his post of
duty, on Tuesday, Comrade Van Deryoort
presented himself at his Office and submitted
sworn affidavit and the necessary docu-
ments to establish the falsity of the charges
brought against him, but owing to the alb
sence-was it on an informal leave ?'-of
General Superintendent William B. Thomp-
son, of the Railway Mail Service, the official
whose misrepresentation of the real facts
was the cause of the Postmaster-General's
hasty action, the hearing was postponed
until yesterday "Wednesday. Owing to
the hour at which we go to press, we are un-
able to give in this issue the result of that
hearing. We have never from the first en-
tertained the slightest doubt as to the ability
of Comrade Van Dervoort to justify his ac-
ton in every particular, and since we have
had access to the official correspondence in
the case, and have become acquainted with
the contemplate personal motives which
prompted this attempt to secure the removal
Of faithful and efficient officer, we are
amazed that a man of General Gresham's
experience IN public affairs should have suf-
fered his subordinates to so shamefnlly i'm
pose upon him. The least he can now do is
to reinstate Comrade Van Dervoort in the
/ position from which he was so unjusuy re-
moved, and publicly announce the ground

General Howard and His Audience.

In our issue of October Is we shall begin the
publication of Mai Gen. o. O. Howard's remi-
niscences of the war, which bid fair to sur
passin point of personal interest any series of
military papers that has appeared since the
war, and, covering, as these papers will, the
most important operations in the East up to
and including the decisive triumph of the
Union arms at Gettysburg, as well as that
splendid chain Of maneuvers in the West
which eliminated in the march to the sea,
cannot fail to nightly delight and interest
the veterans of both armies. Each paper will
be complete in itself, and it is part of Gen.
Howard's plan not only to tolerate criticism
and comment from the survivors-howeyer
humble in rank-of the campaigns which he
proposes to describe, but to cordially invite
| ii, in order that whatever Of value may still
! lurk in the depths of unwritten history may
| be brought to the surface. If, as seems
more than probable, his articles prove pro-
| ductiye of discussion, the flexibility of his
plan is such that it viii be possible to turn
aside for a moment from the beaten track
and turn it TO profitable account, and it is
not difficult to see how, with such distin-
guished authority at hand to weigh the
value of such new facts as may be disclosed
in discussion of this kind, it may be given
such direction as to equal, if not rival, in
interest the articles Of General Howard him.

NATIONAL THURSDAY OCTOBER

which is charged with full authority to en-
force compliance on the part of the De-
partment officers, with th provisions OF the
law in virtue of which it was constituted
this, of course on the supposition that
the provisions of the civil service act touch
ing examinations apply to disabled vet
Grams as well as to civilians. 1t is nice
question, however, whether or not it does SO
apply. The language of section 1851 is that
they shall be preferred for appointments
to the civil service provided they are found
to possess the business capacity necessary
for the proper discharge of the duties OF
such Offices" and as civil service examina-
tions were unknown at the date when the
statute was enacted, it conld not have been
the design of Congress to subject our veter-
ans to the tests now required of civilians by
the civil service act Secretary Folgel
would do well to interrogate the Attorney
General on this point.
