Som times he'd see a ship; sometimes
He'd only ship a sea.

THE president is a believer III the
benefits to be derived from dong
business in a thoroughly systematic
manner. For instance, he assigned
one day of each week for the CON
sideration Of business pertaining to
the executive department Of the
government, and unless the business
il unusually important it VIII not
be considered on any other day than
that assigned to the department
under which it properly comes.
This rule will work advantageously
all around, it will enable the cabinet
officer TO so arrange the work OF his
department that on the day assigEed
to it hc can have all matters requir-
ing the attention of the president
ready for presentation to him, aud
It will enable the president to rapid
~ dispose Of the business thus
brought before him.
