NECESSITY OF AN APPROPRIATION FOR COAST AND HAKBOR DEFENCE, ETC. The Secretary of War has completed his report, which will be transmitted toCongress with the President's annual message. He invites special attention to that part of the report of the chief of engineers which refers to our sea coast defences, and si For many years, during which no work whatever has beén done upon these defences, except for their preservation and repair under small appropriitions confined to these purposes by law, the chief of engineers has called attention | in his annual report to the very great danger which results from leaving our fo their present condition, The ca Which hecessarily form’ a large part of our sea- | coast defences,were butit before the invention of | modern armor ind before the introduetion of rifled | guns into modern warfare. They are built of unprotected by armor, and although in they were equal to’ any in the world, are utterly unfitted to withstand the assaults tis court a few days ago and fined . yas committed on both charges, rve in the workhouse. shows tint a defence byfortificationsand torpedoes is the only one which isat all practicable for coasts a extended as ours, comprising so many rich maritiine cities, extensive navy yards and depots of supply, that any attempt at any other mode of defence Would be enormously expensive, both for first cost and cost of maintenance, and that tt 1s the only mode adopted by maritime nations. Experience shows that modern wars come on sud- denly, that serious international disputes occur between nations the relations of which are appar- ently the most unlikely to be other than friendly and tht a condition of readiness for defence and an attitude of bellzerency are sometimes the best Preventives of actual war, We know that the necessary New works and the proper modifications of our old Works will require many years for thelr completion, and {t seems simply a matter of com- mon prudence that we commence without delay and under liberal appropriations to put our coasts in an eiticient condition of defence.” He also coin- | cldes with the chief of engineers in his views in Tegard to the wants of the torpedo service, and Jollis in the suggestions of that Officer as to the importance of increasing the strength of the en- alion to 52) men, to meet the proper re- quirements of the service. THE ARLINGTON CEMETERY. Secretary Lincoln embodies in his report the re- commendation of the quartermaster general, that “the Arlington (Va.) Cemetery, containing 208 acres, be constituted and established as a national Ofticiai cemetery for the interment of officers of the government, members of Congress, and others in pubile service who may dle in Washington and elsewhere,” and says: “There 1s space for this purpose. “The cemetery ts sufficiently remote from the city to be unobjéctionable on the score of health and yet near enough to be easy of commu- nication. Being separated from the city by a great river {t is not Hable to be encroached upon and ultimately destroyed by the growth of population.” An appropriation 1s asked for repairing the road from the capital to the cemetery. —_>—_— District Government Affab ‘The Commisstoners will in a few days advertise for furnishing the District with 1,500 tons of Trinl- dad or Cuban asphalt for future use of paving and resurfacing streets. ‘The Commissioners have re-appointed fourteen special policemen, whose terms—one year—have expired, as patrolmen in the United States Treas- ury department.

Society Notes. It is now believed that instead of having any lady to remain permanently at the White House to preside for him, the President will invite the wives and daughters of the members of his Cabl- net to assi+t him when he has receptions, He has 80 spoken already to some of these ladies, and said merrily that he expected them to work hard for him at the White House next winter. Secretary Folger intends, to keep house here, and his daughter will come by the time the season opens to preside for him. He, it is said, was alto- ether unversed in the pecullar soclal code of (Vashington. which requires the most recently appointed official to accord, precedence to those longer commissioned by making first calls upon them, and exacts from a member of the Cabinet that he should call first upon all the Senators and Justices of the Supreme Court.

Redfield, the well-known correspondent of the Cincinnati Commerciai, died last evening at elght o'clock, at his réstdence in this city. Mr. Redfield had been in bad health for some Ume. ” After the adjourn- ment of Congress he went ‘o Pennsylvania for his health and remained there until a. Short thine ago, when he returned to his work here. Last evening there was a recurrence of hemorrhages from the ngs, which caused death. The deceased was a ve of Tennessee, but left there In early life and became attached to the staff of the Cimcinnatt Commercial. Since then his writings have been many and have attracted much attention. Espe- cially was this the case with a graphic series of letters which he wrote from the south shortly after the war. He published a book @ little over a xear ago upon the subject of “Homicide in the South. A series of letters which he wrote about fond gn in the confederate lines were first printed in the Philadelphia Times, and then put out by that journal in book form. Mr. Ked- field was of a bricht, buoyant nature, and matn- tained his cheerfulness under all the sufferings from protracted illness. He will be remembered lovingly by all who knew him. ‘There will be a meeting of the press correspondents _at the office of the “Commercial, at 1420 New York avenue (Evans’ building), at7:30 o'clock this evening, for the purpose of ‘taking. appropriate action in the matter of Mr. Redfield’s death. Prov. HirGarp, in charge of the coast and geodetic survey, has submitted the annual report of that branch of the service to the Secretary of the Treasury. The report gives a detailed account of tie work during the last fiscal year— surveys and observations. There was an éxaimi- nation of the oyster beds of the Chesapeake and triangulation points determined for a plane table survey of the District of Columbia among the year’s work. There was also a topographical Survey of a site for the new naval observatory. coasts and in the interior of the United States ‘The office work—the editing and preparation of the fleld work—has kept pace with the latter. Reference 1s made to the death of the late Superintendent Carlisle P. Patterson. AN INTERESTING QUESTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE MACVEAGH CasE.—The attitude of Attorney General MacVeagh, as stated In yesterday’s STAR, raises a question which has never yet_been judl- clally settled, for the reason, probably, that it was never before brought to an issue. question is can an officer of the United States leave his office simply by resignation when that resignation 1s not aecepted? “Under the common law in force in England, it 1s the precedent that while a mancan- not be made to take an office without, his_accept- ing it, he cannot, on the other hand, voluntarily leave dn office which le has accepted ‘without his resignation being accepted. ‘The only decision Which bears upon this point, rendered by the Su- reine Court of the United Stites, was made about WO Years ago in the case of a state officer In Michi- n. That Oflicer resigned, and his resignation Rot = accepted. © He lett, his duties. The decision of the Supreme court was that the officer remained such until his resignation Was accepted by the power which ap- pointed him. In other words, the Supreme Court eld that the old common law was binding in re- gard to such matters in the state of Michigan. It Would probably hold the same opinion in regard to a United States officer, but it has never been called upon to pass upon such a case. In somestates the state courts have held that aman can leave an office without his resignation being accepted; that he can, as it were, shuply strip off hisunitorm, and that there was an end to his ofiflal capacity. A PostaL DECISION IN THE INTEREST OF PUB- LISHERS.—First Assistant Postmaster General Hat- ton has decided that publishers may print upon the wrapper of second-class mail matter a request spring to his an that if the same be not called for in a limited ume it may be delivered to any one of a class of persons named.
