WASHINGTON, October 8.-An afternoon
paper says: A letter was received at the
Navy Department to-day from Secretary
Whitney in response to the appeals OF the
Knights of Labor and other organizations
and from individuals, asking his interfer
ence to secure the reinstatement of dis
charged employees in the Washington navy
yard. He authorized the reply that he
will not himself interfere and will
not permit any officer OF the
Navy Department to interfere or ex-
ercise any influence in this matter.
The responsibility for removals, retentions
and appointments of the navy yard must
be left to the officers of the yard who ars
directly responsible for the work. The
foreman of the bureaus who are continued
must be uninterfered with in their action
in this matter and will be held accountable
for removals and appointments. The
Secretary says be is pleased to learn that
the displaced workmen who are competent
will be given preference in all cases in max
ing appointments and that large proper
ton will be re-employed when work is re-
sumed.

THE BELLS THAT HAVE KUSG.
BY Mss JOSEPHINE sPEsexE,

/ For the CHRISTMAS HERALD.
! 1 sat alone in the midnight hour
[ That ushe-ed the natal day
! of the Holy Prince Of the world once mOre
To place in the years array.
I I heard as the moments breathleSS sped,
| To the goal of the mystic hour,
| The golden chimes of the Christmas bells.
Ring out from the church's-tOwer-
A golden chime Of joyous bells.
4 tidings of good cheer!
4 lash OF sounding sunbeams
In the gloom of the midnight drear
Ny thoughts went back to the far OFF time,
when first their message rang:
And clear from the ages midnight gloom,
The golden echoes sprang.
Theffme OF the promised dawn OfhOpe,
when the shepherds watched the skies,
And saw in the east the wOndrOus Star
OF Bethlehem arise.
As still unused, on my listening ear
There crept wOndrOus sound
The swelling murmur OF myriad bells
FILLED the silence all around
Faintly they came thrOughthe distance vast
OF the Christmas centuries,
Filling the night wiki their mingling tones
In awesOme rhapsodies.
Attimes on my ear rose clear and high
The notes Of a solemn bell,
That filed my heart with terrible woe,
For II SOUNDED the Martyrs knen.
And the cadence that fingered mOurnfully,
After the bell had spoke.
TremUled and JhrObbed with the means that
rose
From the faggots' blaze and smoke.
Anon the sound OF a brazen bell,
In hOrrid clamOr rose
The alarm OF slaughter's signal note,
The blood in my pulses froZe.
And the waves OF sound their echoes rolled
On the pulsing tide OF the air,
Were fraught with the maddened shrieks
that came
From the victims wild despair.
But, stranger than all the notes that rang,
Distinct from the blending whole,
The changeless, ceaseless notes of bell
I That thrilled NY very SOUL
Above the moan OF the Martyrs dirge
And Of SlAughter's frightful clang.
The thread-like sound OF golden chime
Through the ages sweetly rang.
The selfsame chime, though family heard,
That blithely the stiffness broke,
Ere the dream sounds stole on my woud' ring
Gear
At the midnight's signal stroke
That burst again as the vision passed,
Ina peal Of JOY divine,
Ringing the notes Of a glad refrain
GOOD tidings TO all mGRkindF

H. ]. Grant & Co.

The colossal advertisement OF the
Insurance Companies for which Heber
]. Grant & Company are agents, which
has adorned the pages of THE HERALD
for the past several months, is perhaps
the best evidence that a newspaper
could give of the stalwart proportions
of these companies, and. the standing
they occupy in the world of insurance
With respect 10 other companies.
Prominent among this list is the Liver
pool and London and Globe Insurance
Company organized by Charter Of the
English Parliament upon the IN
limited liability principle, which gives
II the foremost standing in the world.
Upon this principle every stakeholder
IS liable for the obligations Of the COM
pany 20 the utmost OF his fortune; and
according to Engli-h papers this
amounts in the aggregate 10 over
$4,000. coo. The readiness with which
this company draws upon its tremend-
Gus assets was forcibly exhibited when,
without reserve or delay, IL drew checks
for over 50 900 900 in payment Of losses
in the gre at Chicago and Boston fires;

stance was at the time of the st. Johns

The Home Insurance Company of

A DESERVING ENTERPRISE.
Home Industry and Cooperation =
The Place TO PatrOnize.

The financial success Of a country de-
ponds upon its own production. Hence
any community that fosters and pat

independence and will in time grow
wealth. In CO injection with this, CO.

public will thus prevent the growth of a
monopoly and become q commonwealth
