Although . it covered forty-five pages and car . riedover twenty-two millions of dol lars, Mr. Bou telle pilotted it through without losing an item or fretting ' any hostile amendments upon it, n proceeding so unusual as to he worthy of especial note. The esti mates submitted by the Department amounted to $25,599,253, the Boutelb ; bill feeommended $22,151,523. Last year's appropriation M as $21,82,510.

The annual ap- proprlation for the increase of the '.Navy for the past four years has been $7,028,840. Mr. Boutelle's bill ' $7,927,056, When notice was given i i : the Senate, while the House bill wn under consideration, that the Senal. bill was to be pushed as an amend ment to the House bill, mnkin. i Navy iu one year, it created such ii feeling in the House that even th 'three battle-ships proposed by Mr - Bou telle were sat upon by the Con -,' mi t tee of the Whole, but Tuesda; the bill passed as it was reported. Mr. Edward A. Oldham, has a tw column cardtn the StatesvllleLand- - mark this week, defending his recent ' letter about Durham in the Atlanta ; Constitution.

Mr. Randall's own Description of his Course in the Campaign of 1880. New York Herald: A story about the late Samuel J. Randall and Mr. Cleveland comes from a responsible sourse. On inauguratiou day, 1889, Mr. Randall satin a committee room with Congressman Cannon and two others. Mr. Randall looked out of a window from which he had a tine view of Pennsylvania avenue. Some oue said someining about the new occupant of the White House. "Yes"saia Mr. KalidaU "1 wonder if some of the friends of the recent occupant understand now what Sam Randall told them two years ago? Thev challenged me to the right. They hud the best of it at first, but I told them we would put Cleveland under the daisies at the close of hi first administration, I renewed this prophecy to bis friends before they presented his name to the Sr. Louis Convention. I showed them that we could defeat him and showed them how we could doit They lauglx il at me. I went to some of the men who were engineeringMr. Cleveland and talked with them seriously. 1 showed them that if they attempted to force Cleveland I would light him in my own way. There was no de ception 'about it so far as 1 was con cerned. I explained to them how I could knife him, and they must have known that it was no idle boast. They laughed at me. I sharpened my knives. 1 wonder if the gentlemen who went out of town a few hours ago with their idol recollect up wards?" Edwin H.
