Washington, D. C. Aug. 1, 1887.
About the busiest man in this city
at present is the clerk of the House of
Representatives, who is engaged in
looking into and preparing the con
tested Congressional election cases tht
evidence in which must be printed be
fore the evening of the Fiftieth Con
gress; it is thought there will be only
six such cases in the body-one each
rom Alabama, South Carolina, Indi
ana, and Illinois, and two from Cali-
rnia a much smaller number than
usual.
-
Tho Republicans in Washington
iewed with much interest, not to say
anxiety, the late meeting and action cf
the Ohio Republican State Convention;
Sherman's friends feel elated over , hi
ictoty, although many of them seri-
usly doubt the policy of his codrsa in
forcing an endorsement while Blaine's
followers are in a rasje and swear they
will get even net year by sending
clegation from the Buckeye State
avorable to the aspirations of the man
from Maine. Sherman's action in cap
turing the convention and shaping it,
in his awn interest was one of the most
shameless and humiliating spectacles
ever witnessed in American politics
more like the manipulation of a schem
ing ward politician than the deliberate
conduct of a so-called statesman, seek
ing the highest and most onorable
station on earth. For once I am will
ing to hold up this Blaine man as a
true exponent of Democratic opinion
on the subject under the consideration,
so I will drop the matter light here.
Prouably thcte are few persons who
calize the tremendous task of compil
ing and publishing the war papers
known as the "Rebellion Records,"
the eighteenth volume of which has
just been printed and is ready for dis
tribution. This volume only takes
the great work up to the year 1862: it
calculated that all of the records will
make 127 volumes and that it will not
be finished until late in the next cen
tury, at a time when there will proba
bly be not one survivor of the civil
strife it commemorates.
The total receipts from all sources of
internal revenue for the lato fiscal
jear amount to $118,835,757 exceed
ing by $1,932,888 that of the year be-
bre. There was a decrease in the tax
on distilled spirits and art increase in
the tax on all other articles, .euch. as
tobacco, oleomargerine and fermented
iquors.
A showing almost as good is made in
regard to the imports and exports of
the United States for the same period
as follows: Exports of merchandise,
$716,701,784; imports $672,259,951;
excess of exports $24,415,733; gold ex
ported $9,701,187; imported, $42,908,
901; excess of imports, $33,207,714;
silver exported, $26,276,504; imported,
$17,260,191; excess of exports, $9,-
036,313; total number of immigrants,
483,116.
The jolly drummers have been halted
in their triumphant march by the rul
ing of the Interstate Commission that
the railroads cannot legally give that
fraternity reduced rates, but only for
a moment, as the commercial traveler
realizes full well that at last the con
sumer of the goods he sells must pay
his expenses, and so he goes on his
way rejoicing, seeking new fields o!
tradeand denouncing the Interstate
Commission as "no good," and a "hoi
low fraud." Tho drummer is irrepres
sible and nothing short of death can
stop his progress or flow of conversa
tion.
Tho Navy Department has made a
contract with the Ilotchkiss Ordinance
Company, with the understanding that
a branch of tho manufactory will be
established in the United States. Re
garding the enterprise Secretary Whit
ney says: "The erection of this man
ufactory will mark-another era in the
reconstruction of the Navy." Contin:
uing, the Secretary said: "Mr. Ilotch
kiss was an American when he died
in 1884. England, France, Germany,
Russia, Italy every European power
in fact-had an establishment for the
manufacture of Ilotchkiss ordinance."
The Swietary further declares that
this country can no longer depend
upon foreign nations for war materials.
There has been a new and agree
able departure made in Military mat
ters, too, for the army must keep
abreast of the navy in this age of uni
versal progress. For the first time
in our history,, details of comjianies
from the regular regimental posts have
been made to participate in the militia
encampmen's and Grand Army re
unions in several of the States. The
unprecedented demand for the pres-
ence ot regular army officers at en
campments this year shows a vigorous
growth of the military spirit and an
increased interest in militia organiza
tion. I wonder if the army authorities
took the precaution to ask the penal.

Now on Exhibition in Saa Francisco.
Perhaps there is no place in the city
at present whete an hour can be sjent
more profitably than at the Panorama
of the land and Naval Battles of Vicka
bnrg, the fame of which has spread all
over this great country.
From early morning until iicarlf
midnight, visitors go and linger as
they gaze at the landscape spread out
before them, and then examine the
details of the "battle's magnificently .
stern array," portrayed with marvelous .
fidelity and startling real.
The proprietom of this graad work
of art have on established reputation
in this country by several famous pan
oramas they have exhibited. Thev are
owners of the original : and only true
Panorama of tho Battle of Gettysburg
now in Chicago, and also of the famous
picture of the Battle of Waterloo,
which has been on exhibition for over
two years in the same building, wheie
Vicksburg is on exhibition now.
The Waterloo and Vicksburg Pan
oramas have been viewed by over two
million of visitors, and Vicksburg,
which has been on exhibition nearly .
two years in Isew x oik, excels tneui
Bweep of country, and no other pre
sents nature arrayed in the grab of
summer, with the summer sun produc
ing the innumerables tints and the light
and shade, that lend to the scene a
charm that is wanting in other paint
ings of this kind. And what a scene
ft is to be sure! The distant ' hills
covered with forests, ripened grain
ready for the sickle, highways and
houses which have been happy homes;
the beautiful Mississippi river with its
many gunboats and mortars, "and the
contending hosts of gallant men strug
gling for victory; the artillery which
can be almost heard thunder, the mas
ses of infantry, the hand to hand en
counters, the dying and the dead, and
all the horrors of war are before the
spectator. It is not surprising that
the scene fascinates! that the people go
again and again to see the Company's
exhibits, and that, although some
have viewed this grand work several
times, the cry is "still they come."
The poet Keats wrote:
"A Ihing of beauty is a joy forever;
Its loveliness increases, it will never
Tass into oothingncss.
Keats did not write these lines on
account of the Vicksburg Panorama,
for he died in 1821, and never had the
pleasure of viewing the picture; but
had he seen it he might have derived
his inspiration from it.
Of course every veteran goes. The
old soldiers who know from experience
what war is, appreciate the picture, be
cause they realize that it is nearer to
actual conflict than anything they have.
ever seen, except on the field of battle.
Everything that can be done for the
comfort and convenience of visitors is
attended to, and the employees are
courteous and obliging.
In conclusion, it may be said' that
those who desire to spend an hour or
two pleasantly and j profitably, the
Panorama of Vicksburg affords theni
an opportunity to do so. It is easily
reached, located on the corner of Ma
son and Eddy streets, in the very
heart of the city.
