of the watch in the same office, was
recently notified that his resignation was
wanted. The same being rendered, it was
accepted to take effect on the 4th day of

1t is generally understood that the reasons
for the captains enforced resignation were
wholly political he being a Republican.
He served in the office with great accepta-
bility, and had the respect and confidence
OF the bureau officials.
Capt. King was an officer in the FIT
teenth PENNSYLVANIA Cavalry during the
civil war, and for injuries sustained in
that conflict is now drawing a pension.
He spoke highly of Chief johnson last
evening, and seemed TO take his dlsplace-
fnent philOsophicany. He expects to re-
main in Washington.
His successor has been selected, but
the name has been withheld. Mr. Scott
Nesbitt, the appointment clerk of the
Treasury Department, infOrr.ed The Times
that the papers had not been returned to
his office from the Secretary, and that
no one had been yet notified of appoint
ment
The duties of the position are now de-
volved upon Mr.. John Riley, who VIII fill
the office until Capt. Kings successor

get any further. They helped themselves
to the eatables which were there, as Mr..
Hawkins said he did not have much left for
breakfast. They stole his new pipe and
two coats. Mr.. Haskins said his daugh-

Occasionally the man Is able to pick one
or two himself. They are not quite ready
for taking, however. No animal seems to-
be attracted by truffles only half grown
and immature. Tho scent comes only
when they are ripe. A copse may be
hunted one day till apparently every truffle
has been collected, and yet II visited after
n short interval will probably yield rs
many as before. Until they are mature
the dogs cannot find them.
Every time truffle is found the dogs

begin TO hunt again till after the REPAY" "

1t has been alleged In a very loose and
paradoxical fashion that "geniuses" arc
mostly mad. No definitions are given OF
genius or of madness, or, II attempted,
no pains are taken to keep within them.
Semimythical potentates, such as Saul
and Solomn,, and dullards such as SOM

"mad geniuses." Boon companions, such
Us Burns, social rebels such as Shelley,
are assumed to be mad. Even celibacy Is
gravely adduced as evidence Of madness.
The young poet who gets rid of the
stings of passion by throwing them into
verse is set down as sexual pervert,

h the sanity of mediocrity. Negative
examples such as Goethe, Scott or Words
