UIsCUSSlOW OF THIS V1-.XH.D tKOBLKH. Are Women as Competent as Men lor Gov ernment servlce ? Sensible Argu ments ror and Against. New York Evening 1'ost. The lcfusal of Secretaries Lincoln and Teller to appoint women to any of the clerkships recently provided for by Con- gret-3 has caused a good deal of excitement among; tho female applicants for places, and we hear of fndijjnat'nn meetings, res olutions, and tho like. Iho secretaries are repotted to have answcu'd that for the places ju.st filled, or t. bo filled, women were generally not well lilted. Tho larger question whether appointments of any class ate henceforth to- bo given to women iu tlio.se two depat tmciits seems to have bced left open. The employment of women m government service was first introduced iu tho early part of tho war, if wc mistake not, iu tho treasury depart ment by Secretary Chase. lb was thought just and proper that whilo tho men were risking their lives for tho country such of their female dependents as wero able to serve the country by useful service in gov ernment offices should begivbn the benefit of tho opportunity. The practice has ever sinco beetr continued ; the number of women so employed has grown very large, their employments have been of great va iety, and the experiment, if it may bo so called, has had a sufiiuiout test to permit a fair judgniont as to its success or failure. i It is piobablc that if the opinions of all the department, bureau, jpd division chiefs wero polled, they would bo found to bovery far from a unanimity of judgment. Somoof theso functionaries would insist that, on tho whole, men aro more reliable and steady workers than women ; that tho women nrc kept away from their desks by indisposition much moro fro qucutly, and, therefoic, give a lower aver age of tiino to thegovcrinneut ; that they are usually fitted only for certain kinds of ditties and will fail iu tho discharge of otheis ; that it is moic difficult to keep Iheni in good discipline ; that they are more frecpacutly, more persistently, and more uiueasonably asking foi favorGand indulgences ; that many of them aro apt iuccs!anl.ly to trouble their superior ofll cets by biinging down upon them mtn of iullucuce, Mich ascongiessmenaud promi nent politicians, to uigo their applications for favois or to protect them against tho consequences of their neglect of duty or other shoilcoiniugK ; aud, finally, that the presence of so many women in tho dc paitmcnls has given occasion to much in triguo and scandal. A searching and im pailial investigation of tho matter would probably show that theio is some truth in all theso objections, but it would show also that thete is much to be said on the other side. Tito original cause for tho employment of women in tho government service no longer exists ; there arc no wives or daugh ters to bo provided for on tho ground that their husbands and fathers aro in the war, and tho number of soldiers' widows anil orphans who aro lit for ofilec work and who aro not otherwise provided for, is small. But taking n larger view of tho matter, it Is certain that wo should open t.) women all fields of useful activity which thoy can efliciently and properly fill ; and it will not bo denied that there arc many things in tho government de pal tment which they can do as well as men, and some which they can do oven better. It would be difficult to find bet ter copyists than thoy aro, and, unless wo aro misinformed, it is believed in tho treasury that as couuteis and assortcis of paper currency they cannot, bo excelled, iu the discharge of those higher duties which require a- ceitain dejirco of legal kuowledgu or mathematical faculty, or tho exercise of accurate judgment and reasoning power, men aro found In the departments to show ou an average more fitness than women. Uut some women although their number is not large havoJ proved very cflicicut as accountants, ex aminers ot claims, keepers of books and records, and so on ; and if a proper system of examination and probation bo intro duced which gives women an equal chanco with men, it will not bo difficult to pick out those of superior merit, and to assign thorn to corresponding duties. "What is said about tho physical iuability of women to be as regular ami constant in tho discharge of their duties as men, and about their tronblesomcucss in asking for favors, aud their unwillingness to submit to the neeessaiy discipline, is in a certain dcgiee tine. Uut as to the iiiSt point, tha difference is, after all, not very large, and individual cams in which 'it becomes largo should bo dealt with iu accord ance with tho interests of tho service ; and, as to tho second point, it rests entirely with the head of tho depart ment to create trouble for himself or to avoid it. If ho makes appointments and promotions on tho ground of mere favor, ho must expect those who aro most skil ful iu mustering "iifllucuco " in their be half to bo constantly bothering him for favors. If he lets it bo well understood that the employes of tho department are treated only accoiding to merit, and that personal fa vot it ism is entirely out of tho question, he will soon find tho women in tho department quite as raauagcaeie as tuc men. It is certainly true that there have been sonio scandals which would not have happened had no women been employed in the public unices : nuc it is aiso tttto that tho number of theso scandals has been comparatively small, aud that they might altogether havo been tvoidcd had a proper method ot appoint ment been followod. Then, again, ap pointment by favor, and particularly by favor to thoso who recommended women for places, has been the source of the evil. On the whole, the femalo force in tho de partments has been very respectable, aud wc have no doubt that strict aud impartial discipline aud a proper system of appoint ment can lift it above all reproach. In this way tho women so employed will also bo made to feel that, as they claim men's advantages in work and position, they must be willing to be treated according to tho same standard of merit which is ap plied to men. CU-AltLkS LAMP. Ills Very Brief Autoblngrapliy This tho briefest, aud perhaps U.0 wittiest and most truthful, autobiography iu tho language was published in tho tck Monthly Magazine a few months after its author's deatb, with the following pre faco or introduction from tho pen of some unknown admirer of Elia : "We have been favored, by tho kind ness of Mr. Upcott, with the following sketch, written in one of his manuscript collections by Charles Lamb. It will bo read with deep interest by all, but with the deepest interest by thoso who had the honor and the happiness of knowing tie writer. It is so singularly characteristic that wc can scarcely persuade ourselves we do not hear it, as wo read, spoken from bis liviifg lips :" ' Charles Lamb, born in tho Inner Tern pie, 10th of Jannary, 1773 ; educated iu Chiist's Hospital ; afterwards a clerk ?u the accountant's office, East India house ; pensioned off from t jat service 1S2.", after 33 years' service , UOw a gentleman at large ; can remember row specialties in his life worth noting, except W il0 qqcq caught a swallow flying (teste sua m Below tho middle statue, cast of face slightly Jewish, with no Jndaie tinge in his complexional religion ; stammers abominably, and is therefore more apt to discharge his occasional conversation in a quaint aphorism or a poor quibble than in set and edifying speeches, has consequently been libelled as a person always aiming at wit, which, as ho told a dull fellow who charged him with it, is at least as good as aiming at dullness. A small oater, but not drinker ; confesses a partiality for tho production of tho juni per berry ; was a tierce smoker of tobacco, but may be resembled to a volcano burnt out, emitting only now and then a casual puff. Ho was guilty of obtruding on the public a tale in proso called Rosamond Gray ; a dramatic sketch named John Woodcil ; a farewell Ode to Tobacco ; with sundry other poems and light prose matt ter, collected into two slight grown octa vos, and pompously christened his works, though,' in fact, thoy were his recreatious. Ilis true works, may bo found on tho shelves of Leadenhall street, filling some hundred folios. He is also tho true Elia, whoso essays are extant iu a little volume published a year or two since, and rather better known from that name without a meaning than from anything he has done or can hope to do, in his own name. Ho was also tbe first to draw public atteutinn to tho old English dramatists in a work called 'Specimens of English Dramatic Writers who Lived about the Timo of Shakespeare.' In short, all his merits and demerits to sot forth would tako to the end of Mr. Upcott's book and then not bo told truly." SKNUian A TKLKUKAM. An I ncx per Un cod Ktlotvs at Traveler's Laborious Composition. Rurliugton Hawkcye. One man reached a long a m over the little crowd clustered at tho operator's window and asked for a "blank telegraphic form," explaining that ho "wished to send a telographic'dispatch to his family." Now. when a man speaks of a " telegraph ic dspatch " I always wake up and look at, biro, because tho cnmbeisoine title is all at utter variaueo with tho spirit of the telegraph. It's too long. Tho use of it betrays the man who has little uso for the telegraph. Tho moro he uses tho wire, the shorter his terms. Tho more nearly he. can como to saying " msg " the more content ho is. And he doesn't call it a " telegraphic form ; " ho asks for a " biank," black or red, as tho case may be. And he never "telegraphs" anybody. He "wires" them. And ho doesn't explain to tho operator what bo wants to do with the blank. Presumably he wants to write a message. And as for tho matter re ferred to in that " msg " and the party for whom it is intended, tho operator will know all that ho wishes to know and sometimes much more than you ejant him to know soon enough. So I watched this passenger write his "telcgrapic dispatch." First he asked tho operator: "what day of tho month is this?" There was nothing unusual iu that. All mou ask that. Ik is tho open ing lino in tho regular formula ot sending a " ring." You may know what data it is before entering tho office, you may cvon have it impressed upon your mind by having r. note fall due on that day, but the moment you poiso your pencil over tho blank, that dato Hies from your mind like the toothacho from a dentist's stairway. So when tho man asked : "What dato of tho mouth is this ?" I was not surprised. I courteously answered him, as a cover to approaching his position, but he did not believe mo. Ho repeated his question and made the operator answer. Then I knew that ho was very now at it. II s spoiled three blanks before hcgota"tcIegraphical dispatch" written to suit him. A man always uses stationary moro extravagantly in another man's oflico than he does at home. Then he wrote every word ,in the body of the dis patch very carefully and distinctly, but scrambled hurriedly over tho address as though everybody know that as well as he did, and dashed oil his signature in a blind letter style, as though his namo was a3 familiar to the operator as it was to his own family. Hut even this is not uncom mon. A man will write " Cunningham " so that no expert under the skies will toll whether it was Covingtor or Carrington, or Cnmraagon, or Carrenton, and when the operator points to and asks. " What is this .'" tho writer will stare at him in blank amazement for a moment, nnd then answer : Why, that's my namo !" " Well, yes, I know that," the operator will say ; " but what is your namo ?"' Then tho man will gasp for breath and catch link! of tho desk to keep him from falling, and finally shout : " Why, Cun ningham, of course I" and look pityingly upon the operator, and then glance about the room with a pained-shocked expres sion, as one who would say : " Gentle men, you may not boliovc it, and I do not blame yoit, but heaven is my witness hero is a man who does not know that my name is Cunningham 1" This is not un usual. Any operator will tell you that he has met Cunningham scores of times and has mortally offended him every timo by asking his name. Well, my tall man with tho thin neck got along a littlo better than that when he handed the operator the following explicit message : Mri. Sarah A. J'ollinibee, Valla Centre, Juwa : My Dear Wipe : I left the city early this morning after eating breakfast with Prof. Morton, a livo man in the temper auco cause. I expected to eat dinner with yon at homo, but wo aro delayed by a terrible railroad accident, and I narrowly escaped being killed ; ono passenger was terribly mangled and has sinco died, but I am alivo. The conductor says I cannot mako connection so as to come to Dallas Centre this morning, but I can got there by 8 o'clock this morning. I hato to diappoint yon, but cannot help it. With love to mother and the children, i am your loving husband, ItoOER K. Foi.MNSUKE. The operator read it, smiled and said : "You can save considerable expense and tell all that is really necessary, I presume, by shortening this message down to ten words. We havo no wire directly into Dallas and will havo to send this message part of tho way over another line, which adds largely to tho cost of transmission. Shall I shorten this for you ?" " No, Oh, no," the man with shawl replied, " I'll fix it myself. Ten words you say'" "Yes, sir." It was a stunner, for a fact, and the man heaved a despairing sigh as bo pre pared to boil his "letter" down to ten words. He sighed again after reading it through once or twice, and then scratched out "Dallas Centro, Iowa," as though everybody knew where ho lived. Then ho erased "early" aud drew his pencil slowly through "breakfast with " and "in tho temperance.' ' Then he scratched over " dinner with" and went on to erase aud narrowly escaped." And so he went on through the dispatch. Occasionally he would hold it from him at arms length after making an erasure to get at the gen eral effect. And at last after much scratch ing and erasing and with many sighs, ho came to the window and said, " Here is this telegraphic dispatch to my wife. I havo not been able to condense it into ten words and do not sco how it could be done I 1 but ; ft Sawing tho sense of the dispatch, greatly, aTT ; 5, - i s really ncces&&JQ? that he handed the o6??0-" ' Afn?I w.ltu expunged edition of his o8 , folIow,DS Jfr.

I hate mother and tho childreu. Your loving husband. Kof.r iv. ror.LiNsr.nx:. Tho operator smiled once more, ami in his quick, nervous way that grows out of his familiar association with the lightning made a few quick dashes with his peucil, and without adding or changing a lotter in tho original message, shriveled it down to its very sinews, like this : Sarah K. Follinsbee, Dallas Centre. Jaioa : Left city 'smorning ; dolaycd by acci dent : all right ; homo 'sevening. Koger K. ForxTNsnnn. " There, that's all right," ho said in the cheery, magnetic way theso operators havo. " Fifty cents, sir ; only-25 ceuts if we had our own wire into Dallas, sir ; 1 you several dollars, sir. That's right, thank you." And the man went and sat down on a chair by tho stove and stared at that operator until tho rcscuoiug train came along, as though ho wero a worker of miracles. And when ho got off the train at tho junction for Dallas I heard him whispering softly to himself : " Shfolliat bee clishn smorning." And I know that ho was practising his lessou and had " caught on." Vulno's Motto.
