of viewing the tombs, carried away the
fragments of the sacred stones as me-
mentoes. Who the vandals were nobody
knows, for no one witnessed the work of
destruction, but the disfigured shafts now
stand in silent reproof of the wanton de-
struction.
Over the grave of Revere stands an un-
pretenrious shaft, which for years has re-
manned unt1efaced. Now the smooth sur
face is marred by ragged cut fully three
inches long, the Disagreement showing
the white marble in bold relief to the
weather-stained stone. The tomb Of In
crease Sumner suffered a similar dishg-
uremert, in exactly the same spot where
it was defaced two years ago, during the
visit Ct. the Masons and Christian Egg
deavcrers to the hub. The plain slab over
the grave of john Hancock is badly mu:
tilated, almost the whole riglrt-hand side
of the stone being hacked and broken.

doomed ND before an American statesman
the resumption of specie payments-and
Mr.. Sherman worked away at that JoD'
and accomplished it, from O'Clock IN the
morning until o'clock in the afternoon
no more, no less.
81 first became connected with MT.
Sherman at that time,'' said Mr.. Bapcoch'
his secretary, "and l never knew nam 10
work longer than the Office hours OF nus
clerks. Mr.. Folger permitted the secre-
tarvship Of the treasury to kill him; prop.
ehlv Mr. Manning did also. Nelther OF
these gentlemen was generous to hlmsel!.
whole generation of political eXpeH-
ence taught Mr.. Sherman that lesson pe-
fore he assumed the reins OF the treas
ury. and, accomplishing more work IN ina
canacity than did Hamilton, he emerged
from the ordeal with his heaitn anu
strength. The secret OF 1t! lie tfus.eu
his assistant secretaries; he allowed his
subordinates to do the work they were ap-
pointed to do. He never permitted pa
ner to lie on his desk for ten minutes, ana
made disposition of his affairs as they
came up. His desk was clean down 10
the blotting pad when he put on his nat
and quit his Office at O'Clock IN the al
ternoon. The Secretaries of the treas
ury who allowed the position to give them
nervous prostration attempted to 90 the
whole thing themselves; and no secretary
Of a,ny government department can do
that and live through his term.
"As was his rule, when Secretary OF the
Treasury so is Mr.. Sherman's rule as Sec
retary of State. When he came here he
found. as he expected he would, that the
State Department is filed with men who
have been here long time, and who
have every detail of the departments
routine at their fingers ends. Mr.. Sher-
man perfectly appreciates the fact that
these men know more about the practical
workings of their respective branches of
the department than he himself could
hope to acquire in period OF service here
twice as long as that for which he was
