WASHINGTON, Nov. 81. - President
Cleveland went from the executive man
sion to Oak View fully determined to
remain at his country home until he has
completed his annual message, which
he has not yet begun. He has most of
the topics we'll in hand, but he finds it
utterly impossible to prepare it before
congress meets if he does no escape
from the unavoidable Interruptions
which beset him at the White House.
Visitors at the mansion are quite as nu
merous as ever, but at Oak View the
president will receive no visitors and de-
vote his time to the task before him.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Col. G. G.
McCawley, commander of the marine
corps, has submitted his annual repor.
to the secretary of the navy. He states
that on Oct. /, 1855, there were 1890
enlisted men in the corps, 925 being on
board ship and 965 doing duty at the va
rious shore stations. During the past
year there have been 89h elistments, 1875
re-enlistments, 1S re-enlistments from
the army, IL deaths, 800 discharges, 419
deserters, and 6 retirements of enlisted
men. The quarterly inspections of the
different ports during the past year show
them to be in a satisfactory condition.
Recruiting has been carried on with
some difficulty, but at present the corps
is nearer its allowed strength than it has
been for some time past. With the com
pletion of the new vessels now building,
larger and more numerous guards will be
required, but it is hoped that the de.
partment may see proper to press the
matter of an increase of officers and
men upon congress al the next session,
so that if allowed they may be available
for duty when the vessels are ready for
