some interesting Facts Concerning tn
Secretaries Of the Treasury.
If YOU will look back over the thir
ty-fiye Secretaries of the Treasury
which the country has had, you will
find that the most Of them have been
men of good education, and many
noted as scholars before their appoint
ment. Alexander Hamilton was
scholar though he had not received q
college education. He was noted as 8
lawyer and statesman before his APP
pOintment. and his articles published
In the newspapers form some Of the
best literature Of his time. Oliver
Wolcott, the second Secretary Of the
Treasury, was graduate of Yale, and
Samuel Dexter was schooled at Har-
ward Albert Gallatin, on the election
OF jefferson. was offered the becre-
taryship of the Treasury. but Dexter
would not resign, and wanted TO con-
tinue his administration under Jeffer-
son rs he had done under Adams. Ac
cording to his theory Of Civil Service
reform the President had not the right
to change his Cabinet at will, and he
did not take Jefferson's hint that his
resignation would be acceptable. JET
ferson appointed Gallatin over Dexter's
head and he had to step down and out.
Gallatin was a very accomplished man.
He was graduate of the university at
Geneva, Switzerland, and he acted
as tutor in Harvard College when
he first came To this country. AT
the age of thirty-two he was elected to
the United States Senate, but was re-
fused his seat because he was not cit
izen of America. He reigned longer
than any other Secretary OF the Treas
ury, and was one of the ablest finan-
ciers Of our history. Gallatin's sue
cessor, George Campbell. Of Tennessee.
was a Princeton graduate. Richard
Rush graduated at Princeton. Roger
B. Taney, whom Jackson appointed to
remove the deposits, was educated al
Dickinson College, and Levi Wood
bury went to school at Dartmouth.
The eldet Ewing, whose daughter mar
ried General Sherman while he was in
the cabinet, graduated at the little col
lege at Athens, o., and John Sherman.
though not college graduate, had
been well educated at acs--mies, and
had had many years Of tra,.lng In that
larger school, the Capitol of the United
States. Tom Corwin had received
similar education 20 that OF Sherman.
and William ii. Crawford was also
well educated man. Salmon p. Chase
was noted as a scholar and states

gether" in the caucus tonight The atten.
dance was large, nearly all the Democratic
Representatives in the city being present and
the proceedings were harmonious through
out Contrary to common expectations, moth
ing was said directly about the tariff or the
pension tax proposition. The state OF
the business in the House was discussed,
and Speaker Carlisle, by request, ran over the
calender, calling attention To the almost
ineXtricable confusion OF special orders on
every subject of general importance. After
hearing the statement the caucus decided 70
select u committee of three members which
should be charged with the duty of selecting
and pushing to the point of action such of
the measures as 1t should deem proper to
attempt to pass, and Messrs. Carlisle, Morri-
son and Randall were named as MEN,
bers of the committee. The sentiment
of the caucus seemed to be In favor
OF passing the appropriation bills and the
bills declaring forfeitures of land grants, and
then adjourning. Soon after the selection ot
the committee Mr.. Randall rose and asked
what the action of the caucus meant-whether
1t meant adjournment by the 18th of July.
There was hearty chorus of Yes, yes
from all sides Rather regretfully, it was Oh

meant also that the appropriation bills and q
few bills already on the calendar would be
the only measures likely to receive action at
this session, and to this assumption there was
again expressed a hearty assent
