ceived and entertained our grand convcn-
ton"

REPORT OF COMPTRoLLER LAWRENCE
Judge William Lawrence, First Comptroller
of tho Treasury Department, has submitted
his annual report to the Secretary. War
rants were received, c0untcrsigned and en-
tered to the following amounts from First

TITS. The report contains number of
recommendations, among which are the fol-
lowing. That the Solicitor Of the Treasury
represent the Government in important
claim cases before the First Comptroller;
that authority be given an officer of the
Treasury TO investigate official transactions
aud accounts Of officers of the Department
when necessary In the opinion OF the Secre-
tary; that Congress appropriate in gross
sums for specific objects, TO be expended by
various officers. In reference to accounts
Of the District of Columbia, the report says:
I" In settling the accounts of the Commits
sioners II has been found that some
vouchers were for payments not actually
aud strictly authorized by law, and yet,
which would, upon examination by Con-
gress, nevertheless probably be approved,
because OF the manifest propriety and jus
tice of the payments. In some
cases expenditures have been made in i'm
proving the streets and avenues not men
toned In the estimates, and so, by reason
OF the phraseology of the statute, not
authorized. The public having received the
benefit Of the improvements made, doubt
less because the Commissioners deemed
them necessary, II may DO proper that the
attention Of Congress be called 10 the
subject, 10 determine whether vouchers
in payment should be allowed" Tn,

letter TO the Commissioners, calling atten-
tlon to the condition of the Abbott build
ing, which he states is not yet heated. The
letter concludes: " 1t does seem TO me that
there has been ample time to have the heat;
ing apparatus put in order, and there must
be fault somewhere" He also incloses d
note to him from the superintendent of the
second division. Mr.. Eutwistlc was asked
for an immediate reply, and sent an answer,
in which he states that the heating APP
paratus was finished on Sunday, and was In

the school commenced. The letter states
that the repairs were not called for until

Navy-ynrd Notes.

The railway in the east ship-house is
being put in repair, probably for the rccep-
ton of another ship.
The remnants of the rockct-housc where
the late sad accident occurred has been
cleared away. Another house will not be
built OH the same site.
A diver has been engaged all morning ex-
aiming the bottom of the steamer Dispatch.
The Dispatch will not go to sea again until
the investigation Of her bottom is finished.
If found to be in an unsafe condition S he
will be hauled up and repaired.
The steamer Enterprise will very shortly
be ready for sea- New boilers, new decks,
and new machinery have been put into her,
and, in fact, it might be said she has been
entirely rebuilt. Col. VIM. l.. Cowan,
master sailmaker of the Yard, is now en-
gagged in making new sail for her, which
will DO ready in a few weeks. Mr.. George
w. Sheffield, boss caulker, is getting ready
to caulk the Enterprise. and when that is
done little else will have to be done before
the vessel is ready for sea-
Acting Secretary of the Navy Nichols did
q sensible thing the other day in recon-
mending that liberal appropriation be
made to put the buildings in this yard in
repair. The old hulks which serve for
WORKSHOPS arc III " iuoou uiiuPiu"tSu Soh-
dition, and unless something Is done with
them very soon, will crumblc to pieces. He
also recommended that an appropriation be
made to clear the channel so that vessels of
heavy draught can get up to the Yard.
At present ships drawing only seventeen
feet of water can reach the docks. If Adj
miral Nichols plans arc carried out vessels
drawing twenty-five or twenty-seven feet
foot of water can safely land. 1t is to be
hoped that Congress will take hold Of this
matter soon after meeting.
