the morning thus employed. Mr.
Millers republican deputy prompt
ly informed m that he - could not
enlighten me and that he could not
speak ex cathedra about the polioy
of this administration and this
Congress. I thought he ought not
to d i so, either, to I went to see
Mr. Scott Nesbit, the democrat who
is chiet clerk of the Internal Rev
enue Bureau. He and I agree on
most subjects snd we came to ths
conclusion that congress bad no
idea what it would in the premises,
I have said all along that con
gress ought to have been convened
last March and a tariff passedwhile
tne democrats in uongress were
fresh from (the people and knew
their will. That is if they meant
what the Chicago platform said

A call waa issued for a meeting

The President and Secretary
Oreshan have gone fishing on the
North Carolinia coast. They , will
go to the Dismal swamp and . -nay
catch some trout in the Lake made
famous since the days of the "birch

The light-bouse tender Violet takes
the plaoe of the canoe and an eleo-
trio search light serves as a beacon
in this hunting party, however.
There Is a bill to retire the old
officers of the Revenue Marine ser
vice now before the Commerce
Committee of the Senate - and
House of which - Senator Ransom
and Hon. George D. Wise are re
spectively chairman, which warmly
commends ttseir to my sense ot jus
tloe. 8ome of these old officers
are between 75 and 90 years old.
They have braved as many and
more dangers than the naval
officers who are retired at half pay
at the age 62, 1 think. The law la
on the aide of these old Re veins
Marine officers and the "efficiency
or the service demands the passage
of this biU. A historical review of
the Bevenue Marine Cutter Service
proves how maoh more worthy
these battle scarred veterans are-of
pensions than is the army of boun
ty jumpers who now deplete ' the
treasury. , j t ;: .v'
The cutter service was organized
in 1790.'. One of the' leading ; feat
ares of Its r organization wai to
place its vessels and crews: upon
the footing, in drills, discipline and
armament, with regular vessels of
war. There being then no Wavy
Department In existence, nor for
about eight years thereafter, the
service was, as a matter of conven
ience simply, m the discharge of
pabiio business to the Treasury
Department, where it has remain-
ever since,- v ;,- vv-
The act of Congress. July V. 1799
authorized the President to "cause
the revenue cutters to be employed
to defend the seaooast and to re
peal hostility to vessels and com
merce within their jurisdiction."
In the war of 1812 revenue cutters
were employed as dispatch boats,
and for coast defense. -, From 1815,
for a number years, some of the
most active and gallant officers of
the Navy sought snd obtained
commissions in the Cutter Service,
and found ample scope for the ex-
ceirntwsmtDahip ana gallantry
wu;ca ui;iDu;aLea oaeert or to
nay at toe time. Under the law
of 13J7, requiring the rresident to
aeatgs publio eels to serrloe oa
the coast during the winter months
for the releif of storm driven ves
sels or com mere, ships of war
were at first designated, but could
ot perioral me wore, and were
soon repUoed by the fleet of reven
ue cutters, and the Cutter Berrien
as per for mad 'this hazardous
work sverp year siaes. Ia the war
with Mexico several ontters served
in co-operation with the Navy.
Is 1858, ths steam cutter Harri
et Laos, commanded by Captain
Job a Faonce, of the revenue Cut
ter Service, served la the squadron
of the Parsguy Expedition, and
pronounoed, ia a letter from the
Commodore commanding to Cap
uts raunoe, ins most efflsient
ship in the fleet. .' During the
Civil War. the Cutter Harriet Lane
shared ia the attack oa Newport
News and Hatteraa Inlet, the eut-
ter Miami in that on Sewell's Point
while (he Nauganluck was with the
ironolad la . the . attack on , Fort
Darling with Rogers, Several rev
enue cutters ptrformed valuable
service In the Chesapeake Bay in
oo-opertioe with the Potomac flo
tilla, in preventing the tranapor
tation of supplies , (torn North to
South, aad captain Thomas M.
Dungo, of the cutter Hercules,
wss killed in aotioo.near the Vir
ginia shore.
It thus appears that the mllitarj
character of the Cutter Service has
bf en established by law its employ
ment In warlike operations ia ev
ery war in which the country has
been engaged. The bill calls for
an appropriation of only $43,000
ana it ought to puss'. 1 am sure
such brave soldiers as General
Hansom snd Captain Wise will
never refuse aid and comfort to
these brave old men who have
borne such an honorable part in
the most dangerous service of our
Government.
