All AbOut a Bellows.

To show the House of Commons how business
is done in the British army, and how cores
pondence is multiplied by the red-tapists Cap
tain Vivian recently rected the following curl
GUS history OF an application for a bellows, and
the course 1t had to run through various chan
nels for nearly six weeks:-
"After a long correspondence, the local commls
sarat Office at the Currag camp on the 18th Febru-
ery obtained authority from the War Department to
indent on the royal engineer department for PAIR
of bellows, urgently required in the camp and APP
Piled for them TO the district engineer ofhcer IN
the 10th the district engineer officer applied TO the
military store officer az Dublin; on the 10Th the mIi.
tary store officer at Dublin informed the royal engi
neer officer at Dublin that he c0ul0 Supply the
qured bellows on requiston. On the goth the royal
TO the royal engineer officer at the Curragh; and
the 2lst the local engineer officer at the CUrragh
replied that he had no foIm OF reqmstion. On
the 22d the local engineer officer at the Curragh
asked the Local cOmmssariat Office If the pro-
posed bellows would do. On the 23d the
local commssariat officer replied, YES" On the
oath the local engineer officer informed the local
commissanat officer that he must apply to the royal
engineer officer, Dublin, ana accordingly the local
commissarat officer applied to Dublin. The mill
tarY stores officer at Dublin answered that he
would supply the bellows on an order from the War
Office. The local commlssarIat officer then pro-
duceG an authority from tine War Office aud read
it 10 the local engineer officer On the 1st of
10 nave anything 10 90 win service Wmch was
not brought 10 hie notice through the proper au-
referred the question to the commissarat
officer in Dublin, On March the com
mlssarat officer in Dublin referred the
question to The deputy quartermaster-general,
Dublin and the next day the deputy quartermasLer
tJenel al at Dublin referred the requistion to The
quaTlermaster General, Horse Guaros. On the 9th
the Horse Guards referred 10 the War Office, and
the ar Office referred 10 tine commanding General

ARRIVAL OF THE CHAMPION RowER.-
James Hamlll, of Pittsburg the champion rover
arrived in this city yesterday, accompanied by
his brother, John Hamill, Chief Engineer of the
Pittsburg Fire Department, and other friends.
Mr.. Hamin has challenged the champion rover
of England, and will leave for Europe on Satur-
day next from New York. Previous to'his depart
ure from Pittsburg his friends entertained him
and number of invited guests at Kennedy's
Dining Saloon, on Smithfeld street, with an
oyster supper Previous to commencing an
attack on the edibles, an organization was
effected by electing Jonn McClarren, Esq, Pre-
sldent, and Fred. Watson, ESQ.,, Secretary Mr..
McClarren briefly stated the object of the meet
ing to be a mark of esteem for Mr.. Hamill AID
a slight testimonial of their appreciation of him
as the representative oarsman of the United
States as well as of Pittsburg.
When the inner man of all present was made
comfortable, Mr.. Henry Kane, a weli-known
Pittsburg tailor, arose and presented Mr.. Hamill
with splendid suit of clothes, made in the
most fashionable style. Mr.. Kane remarked
that, knowing it was Mr.. Hamills intention in
few days to visit England for the purpose of
rowing the British champion, Kelly, for the
championship OF the world, he could not let the
occasion pass without testitying his estimate of
him as a man by getting up a suit of clothes to
be worn by him while in England Mr.. Kane
said he was no great admirer of sporting men
generally, but the sport of which Mr.. Hamill
was champion in America, fairly won by him
alter years Of toll and perseverance, he was an
admirer OF, and hoped that 1T would be more
generally INDUCED IN all over this country, as it
now Mas in England. .
He hoped to hear Mr. Hamil say on his re-
turn that he had had fair play and kind recep-
tion, which Mr.. Kelly would have received If he
had come to this country to row Hamill. His
sincere wish was to be able to take Mr.. Hamill
by the hand on his return, and congratulate
him as the champion oarsman OF the world.
Mr.. Hamiu's proverbial modesty forbade him
replying, and at his request, John N. McClowry,
ESQ, made brief and pointed acknowledgment
for him.
