The Author OF Inc Eree Delivery Sys-
tenn G,ven the a Bounce.
Washington, Dec. 3l-Revere w.
Gurley is the man who suggested or
gained, and has superintendent the free
delivery mail service of the United
States from its inception until to-day,
when his resignation was requested by
the great clvil-seryice reformer who pre-
sides owe the postoffice department.
On the 10Th of April, 1860, Mr.. Gurley
entered the postoffice department as a
clerk at the salary of $500 a year. He
has been promoted from time to time
for faithful and efficient service, and has
been one of the most valuable men in
the employ of the govern
ment, as any one of the men
who have occupied the long list
of postmasters general will testify. 10
him belongs the honor of organizing
and petfecting the carrier system, and
during his long term of service he never
had a complaint entered against him.
He is q man of education, of dignity and
the most exemplary life, and no reason
is assigned for his removal. Yesterday
he was sent for by the postmaster gen
eral, who informed him that his resigna-
ton was desired to take effect upon Jan,
81. MI. GurIey was of course startled
by this unexpected announcement, as it
has been understood that civil-seryice
reform was being practiced in the de.
partment, and none of the old
%standbys were to be disturbed.
He asked il there were any charges
against him, and was told there were
none. He then inquired the cause of his
removal. and was told that a change in
the Office was desirable. That was all
Mr.. Villas said that he would be glad tc
give Mr.. Gnrley an ordinary clerkshir
in the department, but the latter de.
clined, aud going to his room wrote GU,
his resignation, to take effect imme
diately. Mr., Marsh has been the chic
clerk in MIR. Gurley's office for ffteer
years. He went to Mr.. Villas and asked
that Mr.. Gurley might be given The
place he occupied, and that he Marsh
might be given the ordinary clerkshiI
in place OF Mr.. Gurley. Neither Gurley
nor Villas would agree to MIR. March.

In San Francisco not long since Philip
Idelman ran across the late lamentcd
Judge James b. ,Sener, the same who
lately held the position of chief Justice of
Wyoming. He was observed on the
street walking along with a lady, but
later in the day Philip saw him again and
the two slipped inside somewhere and
took a little something which, so far
as the judge was concerned, was called
brandy. He told Mr.. Idelman that he
had liked thugs here in cheyenne very
well, but that il could hardly be expected
that a man like him could stand il to live
here always. One thing had bothered
him very much, and that was that il he
wanted to take a glass of beer or some
thing of that sort he either had 10 step in
at a back door or the whole town would
be watching him. Another thing, he
could not look at or speak to one of the
fair sex without everybody knowing it.
On the whole, however, he thought the
people Of Cheyenne had treated him very
well. and he had no reason 10 find fault
with them in this respect.
