The United States Navy.

Marvellous as it may seem, the story
army has been told by hundreds, of
writer's, while the ten-fold more peril
Gus duties and grand victories of the
navy have hitherto been but briefly
sketched But for the navy the union
would have been destroyed by the aid
of foreign sympathizers pouring in
money, provisions and munitions of
war to the confederacy. The navy cap
tured New Orleans. the great city of
the south, controlling the entrance to
the Mississippi river, and but for the
navy, Grant says he could not have
taken Vicksburg nor operated success
fully, as he did, against Richmond.
The growth of our navy was one of
the marvels of the age, and it was a
power of no small magnitude in crush
ing the rebellion. 1t was second only
to the army itself, and has a glorious
record in the salvation of the nation.
1t cost the government in round
numbers, 4S0,000,000 or $120,000,O00 for
each year of the war, or S10,000,0 600 per
month or nearly a third of million of
dollars for every day of the war.
It employed over 600 vessels of war
and over $4,000 men, which force great
ly exceeded that of any other nation in
the world.
It guarded over 1000 miles of coast,
including bays, rivers, ETC., efectually
preventing the importation of arms
and munitions of war and so COMPEL
ing the earlier exhaustion of the con-
federate forces.
1t captured the immense number of
1,165 blockade runners, many of which
were fine steamers, ratio of nearly
300 captures per annum, or almost one
each day during the entire war. The
money value of its captures was at
least s60,0O0,O00 or $4,000 600 worth for
each year of the war, and 81 100000 IN
value for each month of the war, from
first to last.
1t co-operated with the army where
ever there was water enough to float a
gunboat. while on the high seas, our
navy covered itself with glory. The
river work of the navy on the Potomac.
the York. the James and the MissisSlp-
pi. with its branches; the coaStline
work. from the Chesapeake to the Mis-
sissippi, and its work on the high seas,
totally eclipse In martial Val0f and
brilliant successes all other naval
achievements of the world. While his
tory records the names of Fort Henry,
Fort Donelson, Island No. 10, Vlcks-
burg. Port Huron, Port Jackson, Fort
st. Phillip. Mobile Bay, Hatteras, Inlet,
Port Royal. Fort Fisher and score
more of such famous names, the Ameri-
can navy viii be universally honored;
while such deeds as the sinking of the
Alabama In square naval battle VIII

Yer be named among the most brilli-

ever be named among the most BRILL
ant victories of any age.
It opened the harbors by the peril
Gus work of removing distractions,
torpedoes, etc., and by utterly destroy
ing hostile batteries which command
them. It held in check the treason
able elements of many a city and rural
section while a dreaded gunboat quiet
ly lay before it, in short, it displayed
heroism of the ,noblest type and made
our reputation on the seas equal that
of any nation.
Such was the value of the navy in
the great struggle that General Grant
acknowledged the immense Importance
of it's cooperation in the following
memorable words:
without the help of the navy I
could not have succeeded at Vicksburg
with three times the number of men;
in fact, without the navy I could not
have succeeded at alI."-American
Tribune.

peFienced and determined man to get
the best-or a woman. No hotel clerk
has ever stood up before the onslaught
of lovely female bent on having a
front room lighted on two sides and
not higher than the third story. But
there is another class of the dweIlers
in tents-the men who never register.
Every hotel has them, and Washington
hotels more than any other city. There
it means the game of politics. The
man who wants an Office, and is afraid
his rivals are going to put up combina-
tions against him, viii slip into his
hotel and tell the clerk that he does
not want 30 be seen or put on the book
and the clerk tells him that Is all right.
In some cases such actions would be
rightly regarded as suspicious, but not
in Washington. The leading hotels
will average two day during the first
year Of a new administration; after
that they drop off to two week, but it
is popularity of Washington hotels.
