fully on April 10Th, 1889. He was 72 years

If death my friend and me divide,
Thou dost not, Lord, my sorrow chide,
Or frown my tears to see;
Restrained from passionate excess.
Thou bdd'st me mourn in calm distress
For them that rest in thee.
Then mercy on our failings, Lord,
Our sinking faith renew;
And when thy sorrows visit us,
o send thy patience too!

Removal OF Mr.. BOgley.-The abrupt
dismissal of Mr.. Reuben Bogley, of our
town, who held clerkship at the Wash
ington Navy Yard, in open violation of the
civil service rules, is in keeping with every
official act OF Secretary Tracey. There were
no charges of any character against Mr..
Bogley. His fitness for faithful and eff
cient discharge OF the duties assigned him
were SO far recognized by Mr.. Allen, chief
of his division. US to call forth protest from
that gentleman. who paid Mr.. Bogley the
high compliment to say that it was me-
cessary for the proper discharge of the du-
ties under his charge that he should be re-
tanned. This protest failed to have any
efect-the malignant party decree as it
came from the Secretary had to be carried
out, and Mr. Bogley fell victim TO the vic
lence and raneor of policy that has been
set up under Secretary Tracey in spite OF
civil service rules. Mr.. Daniel Dutrow, a
Republican partisan of this county, was ap-
pointed TO succeed him.
