LIEUT., GOV. HILL ADDRESSES THE SENATE.
an interesting thing to await his arrival
in the morning, one of crowd moved by
curiosity, interest, or official zeal to seek
an interview with him.
HOW HE RECEIVES MISUNDERSTANDING
THE TEDIOUS.
The governor arrives u few minutes
after Q, entering the room from private
passage, after waiting moment to adi ust
his neck gear in an adjacent dressing
room. He takes no notice of anybody on
his way, seeming not to observe the as
sem bled people, and makes "bee line"
for his accustomed chairat the desk.
Thereupon the visitor with the courage
necessary to lead, proceeds to seat him
self next the governor, and relate what
he has to say, his auditor listening with
patient respect to the narration, that Is,
provided il Is not of excessive length.
Should this prove to be tho case, the frat
evidence OF Mr.. Cleveland's impatience Is
the attempt to brace the tips of his fingers
on one hand against the tips of the fingers
on the other hand. Their not coming to-
gether exactly induces frown, which
cannot be misunderstood by the visitor
who has an average bestowment of wit,
but, if not needed by the person destitute
oft, is succeeded by gesture of i'm
tho dullest as to its meaning. This Is,
generally speaking, taking up a pen, ex-
amining it aud tossing 1t back on the
desk. The callers with confidential COM
munications being disposed Of one by one,
the governor. walks around the room
shaking hands with everybody, and ex-
pending q few words of pleasant greeting
on each person. Business then proceeds,
official correspondence, Of course, taking
the first place in matters to be dispatched.
HIS ABoLIsHISG FoRMALITY.
The whole of this reception business
.akes up much less time than one would
suppose. 1t is departure from recent
pre-Cleveland dispensations. Within
short period of time back, to call upon
the governor was great and fearful
matter to all but favored few. The
visitors card underwent Investigation by
small regiment of officials before it
reached the great man and secured the
object intended by its use. Gov Cleve-
lands dispensing with--abolishing-all
this formality has actually promoted and
not hindered the business of the execu-
tive department.
THE EXECUTIVE MANSION AND THE LADY
WHO PREsIDEs IN 1T.
The presdent-elect's home, known as
the executive mansion, must not be con-
founded with that portion of the capitol
set apart for the governors occupancy.
1t is by far the most pretentious of the
many buildings in Albany which have
been occupied as the residence of the
chief man in the commonwealth; stands
we'll hack on the street on an elevation,
and is pleasing structure. 1t was
bought by tho state in 1877. Cows. Til

Report OF tho Court OF Inquiry APP
pointed TO Investigate tho Matter.
The navy court of inquiry in vestigating
tho navy department frauds and tho sys-
TENS Of purchases and accounts of the
navy department bureaus, has made its
final report to Secretary Chandler, in
which it says:
1t appears from the evidence that, ex-
cepting miscellaneous and contingent
articles bought for use in the several bu-
reaus nearly all purchases made by tho
navy department have been made upon
forms which bear upon their face q GER
tiflcate signed by the officer receiving the
articles. The only important exception
to this rule has been in the case of coal
purchased by the bureau of equipment
and recruiting, certificate for the de-
livery of which has been made out on a
separate paper and forwarded to the chief
of that bureau before the approval of the
bill.
Careful examination has been made.
under the direction of the several chiefs
Of the other bureaus, into the expendi-
lures of their respective bureaus for the
past few years, and thorough compari-
son has been made between the vouchers
recorded in the respective bureaus and
tho same as shown in tho records of the
treasury department. No discrepancies
Of any moment have been found, and the
court has no reason to believe that any
| dishonest practices similar to those in
the bureau of medicine and surgery have
prevailed in any of the other bureaus.

the capitol is being built FOR the ages, ana
tho thoughts Of men are still widening

To dwell at some length on the capitol
is due to its majesty and beauty, especially

Tho executive chambers are situated in
the southwest corner on tho second or en-

lands room measures sixty feet by forty
feet. Its walls are wninscoted with ma

in square panels surmouuted with band
Of carving and a carved moulding above.

of James Blair, b. +. Harber, w. II. Long,

when Rollins came up and said something
to Smith that witness did not understand

founder, the late Mr.. L. c. Delavan, was
