WASHINGTON, Nov. 1. - Following is
the letter Of Assistant Secretary OF the

siR-ln response 10 your request hereby

nation OF the Office OF Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury to take effect upon the qualih-
cation OF my successor. In doing so beg to
express my acknowledgements fDr the kindly
assurances OF your entire satisfaction with
my performance OF the duties OF my Office,
aud for your expression of regret that you
ust part with me.
CAUSE OF THE ACTION.
You further say that. fer ress ans not neces-
sarY to explain, you are under the usce s,itv
Of asking for my resignation. can only infer
from this that these reasons are political; in
other words, that | am to retire from the
office 20 which was appointed some eighteen
mosths ago because am not in political ac-
cord with my superi0rs. beg TO remind you
that early IN March last. on the supposiIion
that there might be a feeling OF this kind, [
irankly informed the President and yourself
that while ! had been promoted TO he Office
OF assistant Treasurer after service OF nearly
twenty years IN the treasury without the in
terventiOn or the solicitation of single poii-
tician, had always been and still was Re-
publican ;that while did not deem It consistent
with either the circumstances OF my appoint
ment or the spirit Of reform in the civil SER
vice to which the administration was pledged
Co abandon my office because Of political
preferences, yet was ready to do 70 at any
moment II desired by you. To this You re-
piled that you desired me TO remain and asslsE
you 'for the present at least" But while
solely intent npon giving you loyal support in
all matters appertaining TO the public busi-
ness, have not failed TO observe that my con-
tinuance In Office has not been acceptable To q
considerable portion Of the party prees and
very many politicians.
FEELS TRIFLE SORE.
Frequent criticsms showered upon You ia
this connection have made it plain 20 me that
public sentiment, as concerns one party at
least, Is not yet sufficiently advanced TO en-
courage or approve the reteati0n Of aubOrdi-
nate officers for reasons other than political.
infer that this IS also the conclusion reached
by you. With pleasantest recollectlons OF
your courtesy ana the best OF wishes for you

spectfully, your Obedent servant,
