Provided tha: no offizer shall re mainabwn: feom his reglment ou duty at Wasning.on City, or on thwe staff of & major g neral or a beigadier general, fora longer period than three ears atany one tims, bat taly provis on shall not apoly to ofticaes on tho general commanding the army, This provision, in addition to the exception named, excepted offizers ot the neveral ataff o rps, dui the mllita ry lobby was suffictently influential to have the proposed amendment strick- en ont In the senate, and thuoa the Coburgers of the army, as these Wash- togton idlera aro kuowa among ofticers who perform rea! willtagy dutles, are permitted to stady the iatricasies of terpsichorean figures, and to parade the broad avenuss of the natlonal aap- ital without perf rming any real public duty whatever. A noted instance of the inflasnce of theee Coburgers is furnlshed by an officer, who was detatled for clerical service ln the war department in 1865, and who remained continuously here for seventeen years. Darlng this porlod this officer was several times ordered to joln his rogiment in the west, by diff'rent seorstarics of war, but in uvery lustance he was abla to have the order countermanded until last snmmer, when S .cretary ulncoln resisted all appesls to con- tious him in the performance of duties that any other clerk conld perform, and sent him to joia hls regimont, This case i3 nots lar, Thers ure now in Washingron many officors who have baea hers con tinuously, ranglng from four to seven- teen years. Bufore his promotion to be sargeon general, Gon, Crane was here for seventeen ysars, and Drs. Baxter, Norcia and “Billiugs, of the medioal corps, hsve escu been here without Interruption for a parlod of seventeen years and three months, In the quartermaster's department it ap- pears that C)l. Perry has been here for five years, Maj. Moore for six years, aud Col. Rockwell for nine years, Maj. Carey, cf ths pay corps, has been tn Washington for nine ears, The following englneer officers are oaedited with long perlods of service at Washington: Oolonel Casey, fifteen years; Colonel Parke, seventeen; Col- onel Poe, thirteen; Captaln Wheeler, twelve years; Captain Adams, four years; Captain Hoxie, eleven years and Captain Green eix years. Liea- tenant Cazalre, of the Second artil- lery has been danocing around Wash- ington for three years, and Lieutenant Kilbovrne of the same regiment has been dolng seavice for six years The Fourth artillery has been fally repre- sented by several young cfficers for mavy years. Lieutenant Siory has been here for soven years, Lieutenant Danwoody ten years; Lleutenant Oralg nearly twelve years and Lieu- tenant Milcomb six years, Dan. woody and Cealg left the military academy in 1866, each of them baing in the army sixteen years, of which perlod one has spent twelve years In Washington and the other ten. Macomb has been ia the army eight ‘years, six of which have been spent in Washington. Capt. Davls, of the Fourleenth infantry, has been here nearly five years, and Lieut. Buckannon, othe ssme reginent over six years. Lleut. Greeley, of the Fifth cavalry, has been in the army fifteen yoars, the last ten of which, except when serving on an expedizlen to the Arctie ocean, have been spent at Washington, This lst could be extended by re- elting other cases of favoritlsm, but those given are suffislent to show that there s urgent necessity for such leg- islation as was proposed by the house and senate committee on appropria- tlons. There is also a large number of officers of the navy retained In Washington by the same finfluences that are so potent In the cass of army officers. Semsiti: Washington Specisl, May 1: It Is reported that the memb. the ctvil service commission are some- what seneltlve under the criticlsm of their appolniment of Mr. Keim as chlef examiner on'the score of his olitical proclivities. He was endorsed or the place by Senators Bayard, A thorough examination verblally, and stadled his writings on the sabjeot, and that he was the very best man for the place within thelr kaowledge. It is difficalt to see how they ocould change thelr minds now, even if It should be true, as rumored, that they were half minded to withdraw their recommendation. The report comes also that not only will the commission a'and by the examiner of thelr choloe, but that they will be heard from fn a day or two in thelr own defense. The shrewdeat cfliso hunters at the capital sy that should they put themselves on the defonsive thelr fallure is assared. It ls claimed by Mr. Eaton and his colleagues, 1t is sald, that they aoted advisedly in thelr choice, and do not propose to submit to unjust crit. iciam, no matter who shall get the place of exsminer. Judge Thomaa, the democratic member of the com- missfon, says this evening that he thinks they will withdraw the name of Mr. Keim, bat at the same (Ime pablish a statement to show the wis- dom of their acilon in appolnting him.

A werman Hlevated Road. A correspondent of the San Fran. cisco Curonicle writes that the city of Berlin, Germany, has just opened an elevated rallroad around the city that does nway with all the objectiona of the New York roads, The corre- spoadent, after referring to the oblec- tloneble features of the New York roads, paye: “The Beriin elevated —‘Staatbalin,’ they call {t—!s an entirely different sort « f affalr, Tn the firat place, it does not spuil any more streets than is ab: solutely necessary. It cutsacrosslots, 80 10 apeak, going wherever it sees fit and takiog the shortest way cf getting thers, and, as it belongs to the gov- er.mout, it does not hesitate to buy and remove bulldings which stand 10 tho way. The result is it does not thrus; teelf almost into the front win- dows of the people along the streets, buat goes stealing along through thelr backyards and crossing stresis on g esviron bridges, thus allowlng foot pacsengers o chance to llve without batog 1o constant terror of thelr lives every time they happen to pass near ir; nor is it nolsy and_dirty, lko its Now York relative. Its roar is much subdued and musical, and, what s much better, Is not broken by any sharp rattling, but is contnuous, like huw of a huge bee, and It ‘*holds over” the New York contrivance in the matter of stations as much as pos- sible. Instead of the common open sheds and cheerless waiting rooms in which the New Yorker walts for his train, the Berliner has immenase iron and glass stations, Into which tho tralns ran to take up their waiting passengers, 80 that when one steps into a Berlin elevated station he u,consclously congratulates himself wit uhe fact that he {s dealing with & firat-class ratlway and not with a horse car line or a backwoods road. Maybe, though, the New Yorkers do not need such superlor depot accom- modations, because thelr trains run so often. It they do not It ls lacky for them, For even if the company feels itself called upon to build Fnrge ata- tlons, there is hardly room in New York along the llne of the “L" for such improvements as those of Ber- lin, Nor does the dissimilarity be- tween the systems stop here, The shaky, homely, disfiguring, inconven- ient, and seemingly dangerous scaf- folding upon which the happy New Yorkers are whirled trom one end of thetr city to the other would not be allowed in Berlin, In its stead we find & solld, substantial structure of brick, stone, and concrete some twen- ty feet In helght ani as many broad, supporting upon its great arches, nota single narrow-gadfle track, but two tracks of the standard Earopean gauge, together with all ‘the varled and com- plicated aignal apparatus, which, puz. zling though it may be to a novlce, is an indispensable attachment to all European roa Indeed, so massive Is the structure that one cannot form an idea of its slze and maguitude with- out seelng it where it lifts itself aboye the level of the open csuntry and trac- ing it with the eye as it gradually fore. shortens {teelf 12 the distance, In the few streets which this road occupies it holds full and undisputed sway. Beneath its arches no teams, no horse- cars, and no people can pass, Its arches fill the entire street, with the exceptlon of a narrow passageway on each side, to which the business of the street le confined. Nor does it eeem that this monopolizing works any hardship, for the sireets which it has selected for its site are not proml. nent business streats nor those de- voted to residences. And the peoplo do rot seem to be restlve bacause they are deprived of the New York pleas- ures of having thelr clothes spoiled by drops of grease or dirty water, or of having cindcre—some of them hot— allp down the backs of the necks from the passing train, The road is open and well patron- Ized, espectally on Sundays, It Ppasses in close proximlty to all “the popular places of resort In the vicinlty of Ber. lin, and 1s, therefore, crowded to its utmost oapaclty from morning till night on all holldays.

Always foar- loas In the discharge of his duty, he engendered the {1l will of many who have carrled the fight against him into Ariz)na, He has cxcluded bad white wen from the San Carlos reservation, and this action aroused the indigna. tion of the partles. As to the agenoy store, he never owned a dollar's worth of atock In 1t, but at one time durineg the absence of the trader, at the lat. ter's request, ho looked to the care of thestore interests. ~ Gon.
