Matthew Arnold was asked to accept
the Merton professorship Of English
literature at Oxford, post worth e9oO
q year. He declined, however, as he
wishes to be free to devote himself to
his literary occupations.

Ciyil-service lar as the bill passed
through Congress with the sanction OF
Democratic votes appears to be one
thing, but civil-seryice rules as made
by Republican Board Of Commission
ers, though one Of them, it is said, calls
himself Democrat, is quite another
thing, and does very positive injus-
tice to large class of the most WORTHY
persons in both parties.
BY the most careful examination and
liberal construction of the ciyil-seryice
law as it passed Congress there can be
| no possible justification for Rule IL
made by the commission to exclude all
persons over forty-fve years OF age
from general or competitive examna-
ton. There are very few inconside-
rable exceptions to this rule. The
great mass Of persons over forty-five
wears of age are excluded from holding
any Office, under the bcnefcent ruling Of
Republican Ciyil-Service Board Of
Commissioners. ranging from 1920 to
81 800 and over, and subject. as most
all are. to ciyil-service rules. Seven men
out of ten are Just in their prime Of
physical strength and health at from
forty-five to fifty-fvs; nine out of ten
have just acquired their maximum of
mental capacity and business experience
between forty five and fifty-fve. In all
business pursuits these are the men
mainly looked to and relied upon. Cabi-
net officers, heads of bureaus, and almost
all the men in all the important rela-
tions of life-eyen civil-service CON-
missioners-are men over forty-fiye.
What encouragement to younger men
to make the most of themselves when
they are so soon and unjusuy to be
Disseminated against when barely at
the prime Of life What have we all
been working for until we are forty
five? To he laid upon the shelf. How
soon reform can be brought into disre-
pute when it is Oyerdone. The alb
surdity of the thing is so apparent and
suggestive of so much more than have
said that ! need not pursue the subject
farther, and can speak feelingly, being
one of the noble army of the prescribed
OVER FoRTY-FIvE.
The reason Of the rule is, we suppose.
to be found in the supposition of the
mcn who made it, that if officers are to
hold for life. or during good behavior,
they must be pensioned when they be-
come too old, or unable from any other
cause. to perform the duties of their
offices. Therefore, the appointees
ought to be under forty-five. We have
made this objection to the civil-Service
law-namely, that it is the forerunner
of long civii-pensios list.

The PIenary Council DEGREES.

4 cable dispatch from Rome says ::
"The Rev. Father O'Connell, in the
name Of the Archbishop Of Baltimore,

Sound Doctrine.

We are pleased to learn that Score
tarv LAMAR intends to maintain his
rights as the head Of one Of the Execu-
tive departments Of the Government,
and that the Washington Post, which
had, we supposed, gone OIL after strange
gods, upholds him in his purpose. The
Post of yesterday has the following
excellent article:
II is OF the very first Importance that
the clerks who hold direct and trusted
relations to the heads Of departments.
and for whose acts the latter are imme-
diateiy responsible, should be men of
their own selection. independent of all
outside advice or technical instructions.
There are numbers Of positions under
the Government for which the appli-
cantS require some better endorsement
and higher standard Of efficiency than
any the ciyil-seryice examiners can fur
nsh.
The members Of the Cabinet should
not he required to 60 to an intelligence
/ Office for men to fill essentially conf
Dental places. Ii would be neither de-
cent, dignified, nor busineSs-likc, and
any system Of reform which attempts
TO usurp so just and inalienable privi-
lege as the right Of choice in such cases
will fall into deserved and lasting disre-
pute.
1t is said that Mr.. Lamar and Mr..
Eaton differ materially on this point.
The Secretary of the Interior proposes
to know of his own knowledge, and
not through secondhand information,
who the principal clerks of his divi-
sions are TO be. The recommendations
Off commission are good enough as far
as they 90. but they do not 60 far
enough to warrant the imposition upon
him of strangers whom he cannot i'm
plicitly trust, or Of whose honest 10y
atty to the Administration he can only
vaguely guess.
No man can safely or consistently,
with proper sense of his responsible
tiles. assume control of great depart
ment of the Government, excepting
with the distinct and inviolable under
standing that those upon whom he is to
mainly rely for the successful and credit
able discharge Of the duties dcvolved
upon him shall be men of his own
choice. in whose integrity and ability he
has entire reliance.
Without such liberty Of action, re-
form of the civil service, IN its highest
and best sense, becomes impracticable
and the system it seeks to erect farce
Now that strikes US as sound doc
trine; but how il is to be recOuciled
with the ciyil-seryice law, We know
not. The Mr.. EATON spoken Of b.
the Post is one Of the Civil-Seryict
| Commissioners. lf the Secretary o
the Interior, or any other member o
the Cabinet, has 10 go to Mr.. EATON

Mashed burglars Use Bu,,s,.

A Lancaster PENN special says !:
Three masked burglars entered the resi-
aence Of Edward Linville, farmer in
Salisbury township, about o'clock this
morning, and were tying and gsgging
Miss Linville, when Mr.. Linville was
attracted to his sisters room by noise
the burglars made. As he opened the
door he was confronted by the thieves,
who fired at him twice, one ball striking
a rib and glancing of, aud another ball
entering the lung near the heart. The
burglars then compelled Miss Linyille
to show them where her brothers
money was kept, but they only secured
s70. Atlsst accounts Mr.. l,inyilis was
in critical condition and was not ex-
pected to recover. There Is no clue to
the identit. ef the burglars.

A Kingston IN. r., special says
John t;cfmuska is Bohemian who
lives On the east side, New York city,
prior to seven years ago he was pack
ne,idler. and his route was along the
east and west shores Of the Hudson
river. In the course Of his travels he
made I'D his mind to settle down on
fruit farm for the rest Of his days. and he
bargained Cor the Daniel wygant place,
at Marlborough. agreeing to pay $4,000
forit. lie made deposit Of $500. The
owner died in the interval. and his cid
est son was appointed executor. The
widow of the deceased fruit-grower was
endowed with a life interest by the will
of her husband, and she refused to sign
the necessary papers giving Gcrmuska
possession. The Bohemian made seve-
raj trips from New York to Marlbo-
rough to try and get his money back.
The matter came before Judge west
brook this afternoon in this city. 1t
was stated in court that Germuska,
who is feeble and nearly ninety years
of age, had been kept from applying
for the money due him by threats oil
being "blown up" and "torn to
pieces, - made by irresponsible parties
and not by the heirs, if he ever came
TO Marlborough again. He made
no attempt to recover during the past
six years. In the mean time the ex-
ecutor rendered an accounting, but
failed to say anything about the Bohe-
mian's $500. aud over that amount the
heirs, brothers, and sisters have been
squabbling for year or more. Inc
case was called before Judge west
brook to compel the executor to divide
the money. All hands believed John
Germuska to be dead and buried, his
silence of six years being considered
proof positive. When he appeared in
court this afternoon with his counsel, a
Broadway lawyer named Levy, there
was surprise and CONSERVATION among a
number of the heirs. II was shown to
the Judge that the presence of the tot
tering Bohemian was brought about by
a correspondent Of the Times, who ran
across Germuska while obtaining data
for on article among the Bohemian and
Polish cigar and box-makers in the
crowded tencments on the east side.
New York. 1t appeared that the
Times'S correspondent months age had
been casually informed of the fight that
was going on between the Wygants
over the Bohemian's money by one
of the lawyers retained in the case,
and keeping in mind the description
and the name of the missing man, the
result was his discovery and his APP
pearance in court to-day. Germuska
told his story with difficulty, As he is
deaf and speaks but little English. A
great deal Of testimony was taken be
fore Germuska was sworn, and as soon
as he had told his story it was apparent
that he was entitled to the money, and
the Judge so decided. The Bohemian
said he was afraid he would lose his
life if he persisted in demanding his
money. He wept fer joy when he wac
told the money was his once more.

And while the appointments are be-
ing partitioned out it would not be a
