The sixty feet thas gained on the east front to be properly laid out and ornamented in order to add to the archi: tural appearance of the building. He also re- commends that the east frent of the building be torn down and replaced by granite, to corres pond with the other portions of the edifice. He further recommends the passage of a law equal- izing the pay of all Government employes so as to correspond with the amounts paid by private persons. It is his belief that a great saving to the Government will be effected by such a law. ‘The Eight-hour law is still pronounced injudi- cious, in that it imereases almost one-third the cost of all the public buildings erected. Mr. Mullett will also recommend the sale of all the marine hospitals except those In large cities near the principal porta. Deatn oF Corove: Cuartes K. Garpyer. This estimable citizen, whose serious iliness was noticed in THe Stan some days since, died last evening at his residence on Capitol Hill, Col. Gardner was born in Morris county, New Jersey, in 1787, and in 1791 removed with his parents to Newburg, on the Hudson, where he finished his education. He wasastudent of med- icine with Dr. Hosack, in New York, when he received the appointment of ensign in the old Sixth regiment of infantry in 1908 In the fol- lowing year, while on duty at Oswego, he was appointed adjutant of bis regimeut. He served 33 Such at various points, and at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, General Wade Hampton appointed him his brigade inspector. In July, 1812, he was appointed captain of the Third artillery, andin the following month, General Armstrong, then in command at New York, made him his brig- ade inspector. In March, 1813, he was in of the adjutant general’s office at W: as assistant, but was soon afterward prompted to major of the Twenty-tifth inraniry, and or dered to the Northern frontier at Sackett’s Har- bor. He was in-the battle of Chryster’s Field. In the following spring he accompanied General Brown’s division first from Freneh Mills to Sack- ett’s Harbor, and then to Buffalo, and in Aprit Teceived the appointment of adjutant general, with the rank of colonel. For distinguished ser- vices on the Niagara frontier he was breveted Heutenant colonel, but, being then colonel, he declined it. In May, 1318, he was recommis- sioned adjutant general of the Army of the North, and in 1818 he married ard resigned. In 1822-3 he edited the New York Patriot, ant was appointed corresponding clerk in the Post Office Department. In 1829 he became assistant Post- Master General. He became auditor of the Treasury for the Post Office Department in 1836, and was afterward postmaster at Washington city, and surveyor general of Oregon.

This Institation is called the American Union Academy of Litera- ture, Science, and Art, and possesses more lib- eral features in regard to the admission of members than any other similar society in this country, and comsequeutly will be likely to become more popular and mor generally useful to all who desire to investi- gate subjects pertaing to their special pursuits. Being located in Washington, it will have singular and important advantages, sarround*: as it will be by libraries, and various scien- tiie collections connected with the Depart- ments of the Federal Government. There Is undoubtedly a wide field of usefulness stil open for an academy of this kind; and we wish it sac- cess with all our heart. It may do a vast deal of good if it keeps clear of the exclusivness which marks many organizations of a like natare. From the programme it has adopted there is certainly a promise that this will be the case. ‘the Academy will cause to be published sneh papers, as it deems of sufficientvalue in the in- vestigation of any given topic—but it will not endorse thereby the views expressed by the author: he must stand or fall before the public on the intrinsic merits of his opinions, and entirely independent of any support from those of the Academy. Meetings will be held monthly, at which the public will be freely admitted, and any visitor may be entitled to participate in the dixcussions. These are the principles upon which the new Academy starts upon its career, and from the distinguished names of its founders, we have good reason for believing that it wil! meet with all the success which they anticipate.
