Be the Secretary of the Navy. The order abolishing the board of detail, says “much valuable time has been expended by the inde vidual members of the board or detail in the consideration of the less important duties con- nected with that board, to the neglect of larcer and more {mportant inatters connected with their bureaus. General order No. 322 is so far modified that the detail office of the Navy de- partment will hereafter be managed by the chief of the bureau of pol Secatier who will be held responsible for the assignment to duty of all oflicers excepting those specified below.

THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE THEOLOGICAL DEPAREMENT OF HOWARD UNIVERSITY. A large andienco witnessed the graduating exercises ofthe theological department of How- ard University, at Asbury M. E. church last evening. Rev. Dr. J, G. Butler, of the Memorial Lutheran church, opened the exercises with Scripture reading and prayer. A large portion of the evening was taken up with addresses by the graduates, which were of a most creditable character, both as to “their substance and the manner of their delivery, The themes of the various addresses “were as follows: “Unity of the Christian Church,” by Jncob LB, Oliver, ef Chelsea, Mass.; “True Heroism,” Stephen R. Lamkins, Roanoke county, Va; “Future Glory. or Africa,” Henry T. Jol hnson, Newburg, N. Y; “The Bible, the Perfect Guide,” Samuel M.

Pattor, president of the university, de livered an address to the graduates. Rev! Dr. A. W. Pitzer, prestdent of the Washington City Bible Society. presented to each graduate a py ofthe Bibie. The certificates of gradua- tion were conterred by Rev. Dr. J.G. Craighead, dean of the faculty. “Rev. Geo. W. Moore pro™ nounced the bene: ion ee What the Water Contains. PROF. WILEY'S ANALYNIS OF SAMPLES TAKEN FROM THE CANAL AND THE POTOMAC. Prof. H. W. Wiley, chemist of the Agricultu- ral department, has reported to Commissioner Colman the results of the analysis of three sam- ples of water taken by members of the Repub- lican staff, one from the canal, in front of the waste weir above the mouth of the conduit of the Great Falls, the second from the’ river, at the conduit’s mouth, and the third from the river channel, fifty yards above the waste weir. The most noticeable result of the analysis, as reported by Prof, Wile: the presence of free ammonia in the Fatio of 125 parts in one mil lion In the canal water; .120 purtsi none mil- lion in_the water at the conduit mouth, and only .OSO parts in the third sample taken from. the river above the canal outlet. “This quantity of free ammonia,” Prof, Wiley reports, “while apparently very’ smail, is in reality greater than a pure water should con- tain, with the exception, perhaps, of No. 3. I should life the corroboration ‘of another analysis before fixing the final value of these numbers. Twelve-hundredths of one part per million is not numerically au alarming propor- tion, but itmay indieave contact with more than an average amount of suspicious matter.” He reports having found .240 Saabs per million of albuminoid ammonia in the canal water, -204 parts in the water at-the conduit and .163 partsin the river water above the weir. This quantity of albuminoid ammonia, he says, is twice as great as that given by the poorest of the waters supplied to the city of London, ex- cept when such water is sampled under un- usual circumstances. In this connection he says it must be remembered that all kinds of organie matter, are not equally prejudicial to Kealth, and a water contuining the germs of typhold fever might escape condemnation from achemical aualysis. He pronounces the water taken from the river above the weir as the best. and that from the canal as the worst water of the samples submitted to him, zane oe A Lively Scene in Court. MR.
