ECI^IPSES IN THE YEAR 1887. There will be four eclipses in the year 1887. two of the sun and two of the moon, only the first of which will b^ visible in the United States. 1. A Partial Eclipse of the Moon, Febiniary 8, visible at Washington, and through- out the 'United States; also in the Pacific Ocean and part of Asia. Moon enters shadow, at Washington, at 6 minutes-past 4 am. Middle of the eclipse, 5 U a.m. Moon leaves shadow, 6,22 am. Magnitude of the eclipse = 0.43^ (Moon's diameter = 1). 2. An Annular Eclipse of the Sun, February 22, in the afternoon. Invisible in the United States; visible in part of Australia, the South Pacific Ocean, and western re- gions of South America. 3. A Partial Eclipse of the Moon. August 3, in the afternoon. Invisible in the United States; visible in Russia and Western Asia. 4. A Total Eclipse of the Sun, August 18, 11 o'clock 16m. in the evening. Not visible in North America, except in the extreme western part of Alaska; visible in Germany, Russia, and Japan. THE NEW STANDARD TIME. In 1884, by general agreement and partial legislation, four standard meridians were adopted within the United States, by which railway trains are run and local time regulated. These meridians are 15 degrees, or 900 miles, apart, there being a difference of just one hour in time from one meridian to another, as there are 360* in the earth's circumference, which divided by 24 hours gives 15 degrees to an hour. The Eastern meridian, 75® W. from Greenwich, passes 4 minutes west of New York City. The Central meridian, 90® W. longitude, passes (nearly) through New Orleans and St. Louis, and Chicago lies about lOJ^^minutes east of it. The Mountain standard meri- dian, 105® W. long., passes near Pike's Peak. Rocky Mountains. The Pacific meri- dian, 120® W. long., is near the coast, San Francisco being 9^ m. west of it. The figures in these calendar-pages will be correct for places on the standard meridians; for places east of any meridian, and within 7)4 degrees of it, one minute of time for each quarter of a degree of longitude (= 15 miles nearly), or 4 minutes for each de- gree, must be subtracted from the almanac figures. For a place west of any meridian, and within 7^4 degrees of it, add one minute for each quarter of a de- gree to the almanac figures. In computing standard time of rising or setting of sun or moon for any place, select the city or State in the calendar that is nearest in latitude to the place wanted. Any United States map gives the distances in longi- tude of most places from the several standard meridians, sufficiently near to make practical application of the rule. MORNING STARS.

The figures above it In the same vertical line show the dates of that day during the given month, and the week- days in the same hori- zontal line to the right or left have their re- spective dates above them, thus forming the entire calendar for xhat month and year. Example 1.»To find the day of the week for July 4th, 1881. Opposite Century 19. New Style, and over year 81, is Saturday. Under July, Saturday falls in the vertical line under 2, and the second day to the right following, under 4, is Monday, July 4th. Example 2.— To find the day of the week on which Columbus discovered America, Octol)er 12th, 1492, Old Style. Opposite Century 15, Old Style, and over 92 in black letter (it being leap year,) Is Monday. Therefore, October 8th was Monday ; and the line of week-days in which Monday falls under October (which is the sixth,) with the days of the month al)ove, constitute the entire Calendar for October, 1492, Old Style, and the 12th, as seen, falls on Friday.

NoTB.--The hours of high water in the calendar pages are the momixie hours —from midnight to noon— throughout the year, as computed for the U. S. Coast Survey. To mid the time of next high water, or the artemoon tido^from noon to midnight— add 12 h. 25 m. in each day. The result will be the proximate hour of evening tide. For low water, add 6 h. 12 m., approximately, to the time of high water. Explanation of the Calendar. The two natural divisions of time are the day, of 24 hours, representing one revolution of titie earth on its axis, and the year, 866 days^approximately repre- senting one revolution of the earth aroimd the sun. The month represents (nearly) the period of the moon's revolution roimd the earth (about 29^ days), while tne week is approximately one-fourth of this. By the Julian (Calendar, established by Julius Csesar, 46 B.O., the months were reconstructed; and the Roman year was regulated entirely by the sm, the lunar year being abolished. Thirty-one days were given to the 1st, Sd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 10th, and 12th months, and SO days each to the rest, except February, which on every fourth year received an intercalary day, maae by the eexto Calendas Martina^ whence ** leap-year'' came to be called Biaaex- tue. As the Julian year had 866^ days, its length exceeded the true solar year by ilm, 14 sec., so that the equinox in the c ourse of cftntiiH«R f«ll back SeVerSI daya To ooirect this error, Pope Gregory XTTT. in 1682 reformed ^e calendar by suppressing ten days, restoring the equinox to March 21. The Grew>riaa C&lendfur also made every year which is divisible by four without a reminder a leap year, except the centesimal years, which are only leap years when the first two figures are divisible by four : thus 1600 was a leap year, 1700, 1800,(and 1900 <»nmion years, 2000 a leap year, etc. The length of the mean year is 866 d. 5h. 49m. 12 sec., exceeding the true solar year nearly 26 sec., which error amounts only to 1 day in 8.325 years. The Gregorian Calendar was adopted by Germany in 1700, and by English law in 1762, when the Julian Calendar, or old atyle^ gave F^ace to the new style, by droppinig eleven dajrs from the month of September. 1762. The Kenval of Easter, comimemorating the resurrection of CSulst, used to be observed on the 14th day of the moozi. t.e., near the fuU moon— the same as the Jewish Passover. But the (>>uncil of Nice, a.d. 326, ordered Easter to be cele- brated on the Sunday next succeeding the ful* moon, that comes on or next after the vernal equinox— March 81st ; thus making Easter and the related ^ and fast days movable holidays. 6 AMEBIOAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. lirr Month.] JANUARY.

January is so named from the Boman JantLs, who was the porter of heaven, having the surname of Patulous, the opener. He presided over the beginning or open- ing of everything, hence the first month of the year was called after _him, when the Bonian year was altered by Numa Pompilius (in the 7th century B.C.), from ten months beginning in March, to twelve months by adding January and February. In his original character Janus was the god of the sun, and worshipped as such by the Etruscans and the Bomans. The temple of Janus (which was really a covered pas* sage or gate at Borne) was left open in war as a symbol that the god had gone out to assist the Boman arms, while it was continually shut in time of peace. On New Tear^s Day, which was the festival of the god Janus, the Bomans gave presents to one another. Thus ancient was the origin of the modem custom of New Tear^B presents and first of Januaiy festivities. AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 2d Month.] FEBRUARY. [28 Days. Moon's Phases. D. 1 8 14 22 Boston.

February, according to some, derives its name from the Latin februare, signifying to expiate or purify, as the Romans had a custom of general lustrations and purifica- tions in the latter part of that month. More generally, February is traced to the Roman divinity Februus, afterward identified with the god Pluto, of the lower world. Still another origin is found in the goddess Februa, supposed to be the same as Juno; and Dr. Foster says, **The evident relation between the Februata Juno and the Purificata Virg. Maria is one of the most striking instances of the connection between Pagan and Christian rites and festivities as to the period of their occurrence." In every fourth year, February has 29 days, instead of 28, and the years (thus hav- ing 366 days, instead of 865, and styled Leap-years) are those which are divisible by 4 without a remainder— as 1884, 1888, 1892, 1896, 1904, etc. The exceptions are the cen- tenary years which are not multiples of 400, as it was found in the Gregorian reform of the calendar that the Julian intercalation involved an error amounting to 8 days in every 400 years. Thus, while 1600 and 2000 are leap-years, the three intervening cen- tenary years are common years of 865 days. 8 AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 3d Month.] MARCH. [81 Days.

The month of March was named from Mars (Lat. Martitts), the Roman god of war. This divinity was known as Fatljer Mars, and next to Jupiter he enjoyed the highest lionors at Rome, of which city Jupiter, Mars, and Quirinus were the three tutelary divinities. March was the first month In the early Roman calendar, and the legal year began with March 25 even in England, until the change from Old Style to New Style in 1752. (See explanation of the calendar, p. 5.) The custom of reckoning the year according to the Old Style is still retained in Russia, and even the financial year of Great Britain is reckoned ft-om the 81st of March. In historical works, dates are frequently written thus: Feb. l\, 1782; the upper figures representing Old Style reckoning, and the lower New Style. We also see dates between Jan. 1 and March 25 expressed thus: Jan. SO, 164{; mean- ing that the year was legally 1648 (O. S.), but by modem reckoning 1649 (N. S.).

April (Let. Aprilis)^ derived perhaps from Aperire, to open, because spring and the buds generally open in this month. Another derivation has been found in the dedication of this month by the Romans to Venus, goddess of buds and beauty, whose name in Greek was Aphrodite, whence Aphrilis or Aprilis. This is more fanciful than tlie first-named derivation, but the word-mongers are never daunted by diflfl- culty, any more than by distance, in their etymologies. Ill the French revolutionary calendar, April included most of their new season of Germinal^ and the beginning of Floreal. On the ancient monuments, Aprilis appears as a dancing youth with a rattle in his hand, thus symbolizing the gay and jocund spirit of spring. All-Fools* Day (April 1) is traced through eveiy country of Europe to the Hindoos, and even farther back— to the mistake of Noah in sending the dove out of the ark be* fore the water had abated, on the Hebrew first day of the month. 10 AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 5th Month.] MAY.

May (Lat. Maius) was consecrated to Apollo among the Romans, and is probably derived from Jlfam, a feminine divinity worshipped at Eome, to whom sacrifices were offered on the first of May. Some philologists, however, hold that Maiiis is a con- traction of Magius, derived from the Sanskrit root mag or mah, to grow. The custom of observing May-day, or the first of May, with fioral and festive cere- monies, is older than the Middle Ages, and Is probably the lineal descendant of the Roman Floraliaj or festivals in honor of Flora^ celebrated from April 28 to May 2. In England the custom of going out a-Maylng is mentioned in Chaucer and Shake- speare. Before sunrise young people went to the groves to gather flowers and branches of foliage to adorn the village May-pole, around which the dancing was kept up. A queen of the May, the most beautiful girl in the village, was elected for crowni-ig. AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 11 (Jth Mokth.] JUNE. [80 Datb. Moon's Pha.sbs. D. 5 13 21 28 Boston. New York.

Joke, the month of roses, has been commonly traced to Juno, worshipped at Jtome as the queen of heaven. The connection is found in the fact that the month of June (said to have been called originally Junonius) was considered the most favorable period for marrying; and Juno was the great protector of the feminine sex, and be- lieved especi^ly to preside over marriage. Another origin is found by some in the Latin Junior es^ the young men, to whom Romulus is said to have assigned it; and still another in jungo^ to join (as in marriage). The Anglo-Saxons called June '* midsummer month." In the northern United States June is the most delightful month of the year, when the flowers put on their richest bloom, and the birds warble their most musical songs, while the earth, the air, and the water teem with vigorous life, and the hours of the day far outnumber those of the night. 12 AMERICAN ALMANAC FOB 1887. 7th Month.] JULY.

July.— This month derives its name from JtUiua Ccesar, who was born on the 12th of the month, originally called QuintiliSy it having been the fifth month in the origi- nal Latin year, which began with March. The change of name was proposed by Mark Antony, uid easily carried in the days of the great Julius. This is the month of " dog-days,'* usually reckoned as beginning on the 3d of July and ending about the 11th of August. These days were so called from the star Sirius, or the dog-star, in the constellation of Canis Major y to which the extreme heat of mid- summer was superstitiously attributed. During these oppressively hot days it was dlsp supposed that do|^ are more likely to rui^ n^a4 thap at other seasons. AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 13 8th Month.] AUGUST. [31 Days. Moon's Phases.

AnonsT, like July, owes its name to the Roman Caesars, the "Kmperor Atigtutush&v- ing followed in the footsteps of his illustrious predecessor by appropriating a month to himself. Formerly called Sextilis, or the sixth month, when Julius CsBsar changed the calendar it still continued Sextilis and had thirty days, while February had twenty- nine, and in leap-year thirty days. To gratify the vanity of Augustus, one day was taken by the obsequious Senate from February and added to August, so as to make his month equal in extent and dignilt^ to July. August is associated, at least in this country, with intense heat and welcome vaca- tions; schools and colleges shut up, the cities pour themselves into the country, and ptMde and mountain resorts are thronged. 14 AMERICAN ALMANAO FOR 1887. 9th Month.] SEPTEMBER.

September is so called from the Latin Septem, seven, because it was the 7th month of the Roman year, which began with March, until the change of the calendar under the second King of Rome. Though September became then the 9th month, and October, November, and December the 10th, 11th, and 12th, respectively, instead of the 8th, 9th, and 10th, the ancient designations are still retained, in spite of their total inaccuracy— an instance of conservatism enduring through ages, and still perpetuated. September is the month of harvest through large areas of the globe, and in Switzer- land it is still called Herhstmonat (harvest month). Harvest moon is the full moon nearest the autumnal equinox (Sept. 21), so called because It enables farmers to prolong the day's work during the autumnal harvest. In England and northern Europe the harvest moon rises near sunset several evenings successively; but this phenomenon is less marked in the United States because of our lower latitude. The recurrence of what was called an equinoctial storm at or about the time the sun crosses the equator has ceased to be (if in fact it ever was) a thing to be depended on.

This has given rise to the following quatrain : ** October has its name from octo, eight; Though 'tis the truth, perhaps 'tis well to state, Such sizes and such sevens the months were Icnocked to That ten became translated into octo.^' The splendor of October in the country, when the air is crisp and full of electric en' ergy, and the green forests change to the gorgeous and many-colored hues of autumn, bas been celebrated by many writers. 16 AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 11th Month.] NOYEMBEB.

November (Lat. novem, nine) is now the eleventh month, instead of the ninth, as before the change of the Roman calendar. Though frequently cold and blustering, November is redeemed almost every year, throughout a large region of the United States, by the delightful weather known as Indian Summer, when for days or weeks the sun pours its rays mildly through a haze, and the soft and genial air invites us abroad to enjoy, as it were, a second edition of summer before winter closes in. November is also notable in the northern parts of the United States for its time-hon- ored festival of Thanksgiving, which originated with the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth. Formerly celebrated on different Thursdays, as fixed by proclamation by the various State governors, Thanksgiving has now come to be generally observed on the last Thursday in November, as announced by Presidential proclamation, AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887. 17 12th Month.] DECEMBEB.

December (Lat. decern^ ten), the tenth month of the early Romans, has become the twelfth, rounding out the year. This is the month of the longest nights and the shortest days, as the winter solstice falls on the 2l8t of December. When the French revolutionized the calendar in 1792, and gave the months new and tigoifleant names, December was cut in two, the first part of it becoming lYimaire (frosty) and the last Nivoae (snowy). As the month of the Christmas holidays, which continue, where fully celebrated, from December 24 to January 2, or even longer, December's cold and gloom are en- livened with the joyouBBess, generosity, and charity of the greatest festival in the calendar. 18 ,iiMr<4(» IjLET MEiMANXOl^on 1887.

Vhe larger number kiiied or injured on railways are those crossing or walcing on the tracks, or falling from trains In motion, and without any accident to trains themselves.

Railway Commissions invested with greater or less powers have been created by law in twenty-six States of the Union up to 1885, leaving twelve States only unpro vided with such officers. . . . The States having Railroad Commissioners are as follows, with the number con- stituting the Ck>mmission in each: Alabama, 3; Arkansas, 3; California, 3; Colorado,!; Connecticut, 3; Georgia, 3; Illinois, 3; Iowa, 3; Kansas, 3; Kentucky. 3; Maine, 3; Massachusetts, 3; Michigan, 1; Minn^ota, 3; Mississippi, 3; Missouri, 3; Nebraska, 3; New Hampshire, 3; New York, 3; Ohio, 1; Rhode Island, 1; South Carolina, 3; Texas, 1; Vermont, 1; Virginia, 1; and Wisconsin, 1. In some of these States the commissioners are merely examining and reporting officers; iu others the commissioners have purely advisory powers, the legislatures retaining the sole power of regulation of railways by statute; in others still, the commissions are invested with power to fix rates of freight and fares The States in which railway commissioners have power to fix rates are nine in immbei*, viz., California, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. The general supervision of the railways, with power to enforce existing laws by due process, and the requirement of formal reports to the legislature, constitute the f unc- tions more generally vested in the railway commissions of the States. In several States (as in Arkansas and Nebraska) three of the State officers are made railroad commissioners ex officio. In Tennessee alone the railway companies have success* fully resisted in the U. S. Courts revision of their tariffs of charges by the railway commissioners, and the commission itself (established in 1883) has been abolished b the legislature. 40 AMERICAN ALMANAC FOR 1887.

The public lands of fhe United States which ar« stUI undisposed of a&d opea to Mfr- Uement lie In nineteen States and eight Territories. In «A<di case, except Ohio, Dtdlaaia, Illinois, the Indian Territory and Alaska, land offices are established, 1b chaj^^ of an officer known as Begister of the Land Office, where the records of all surreyed lands are kept, and all applications concerning lands in each district are filed and inquiries answered. The public lands are divided Into two great classes. The one class hare a dollar and a quarter an acre designated as the minimum price and the other two dollars and a half an acre, the latter being the alternate sections, reserved by the United States in land grants to railroads, etc. Titles to these lands may be acquired by private entry or loca- tion under the homestead, preemption and timber-culture laws ; or, as to some classes, by purchase for cash. In the case of lands which may be purchased at private sale, or suek as have not been reserved under any law. Such tracts are sold on application to tb» Land Begister, who issues a certificate of purchase, the receiver giving a receipt for the money paid, subject to the Issue of a patent, or complete title. If the proce^UnfS are found regular, by the Commissioner of the General Land Office, at Washington. Entries under land warrants (given moutly for military services under acts of Con* grees), have fallen off very largely by the absorption of such warrants, there having be-n no military bounty land warrants provided for on account of services In the late \*ar. Entries under the preemption law are restricted to heads of families, or dtlsens ever twenty-one, who may settle upon any quarter section (or 160 acres), and have the right cf prior claim to purchase on complying with certain regulations. The homestead liftws give the right to one hundred and sixty acres of a dol]ar*and-a- quarter lands, or to eighty acres of two-dollar-and-a-half lands, to any citizen or appli- cant for citizenship over twenty-one who will actully settle upon and cultivate the land. ^hL'^ privilege extends only to the surveyed lands, and the title Is perfected by the Issue of a patent after five years of actual settlement. The only charges in the case of home- stead entries are fees and commissions, varying from a minimum of $7 to a maximum of $U for the whole tract entered, according to the size, value or place of record. Another large class of free entries of public lands 16 that provided for under the Umber-culture acts of .1873-78. The purpose of these laws Is to promote the growth of torest trees on the public lands. They give the right to any settler who has cultivated for two years as much as five acres in trees to an eighty-acre homestead, or. If ten acres, to a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres, and a free patent for his land Is given bim at the end of eight years instead of five, mie limitation of the homestead laws to 3ne hundred and sixty acres for each settler Is extended in the case of Umber-culture K> as to grant as many quarter sections of one hundred and sixty acres each as have oeen Improved by the culture for ten years of forty acres of timber thereon, but the quarter sections must not lie immediately contiguous. The fees and com missions in :imber-culture entries vary from $13 to $18 for the tract. The following Is the complete list of United States Land Offices i Alabama: Huntsville, Montgomery.

These tables of prices haye been oompUed upon the basis of selecting the leading artl- des entering into general consumption* whether as semi-luxuries or the necessaries of iife. T!he prices quoted being those of the New York market, still wider variations would In some cases have been exhibited if other markets, near the centres of production of some leading staples, had been collated with these. The tables exhibit the violent fluctuations of the civil war period in the United States— 1861-65— and the jrears of expansion immediately succeeding, in contrast with the general decline of the pcbst few years, which has not yet reached, however, save in a few articles, the mini mum prices which prevailed before the war.

Wheat is the most Important product, the crop averaging ten million bushels, two-thirds of which la exported. Chili Is rich in gold, ailver, and especially In copper. The armytreduoBdlnlsVd to 8,600 men* iraalargely increased In 1979 on account ot the Pemvian war, and numbered, in 1886, 6,811 men. The navy consists of about 18 steam vessels, manned by 1 .7*29 men.

China, an Immense empire in Asia, area 4,660,107 square miles, population 37 6,000,00C (estimated), has of late years opened diplomatic and commercial intercourse with other nations. It includes Tibet, Mongolia, and Manchuria, besides China proper; the country abounds in numerous rivers, forming the chief highways of the empire. The govemm«it Isa patriarchal despotism, the Emperor being an autocrat, whose sway is limited only by t^e sacred right ot rebellion. Its vast and productive territory is larger than that ot any nation except Russia, and its civilization, the most ancient in the world, has peculiarities unknown to the civilizations of Europe or America. The excluslve- ness which long made China a sealed book is slowly giving way, and the empire now sends Its ministers to the United States, England, France, Germany, Russia, Spain, the WeeC liidies, and Japan ; but the CSiinese government still refuses to open the empire to railreads and telegraphs, and destroyed in 1877 the first and only railway laid in the amplras aad only 14 of Ita numereus ports are open to foreign trade.

The government supports education, which is compulsoiy and gratuitous, by annual subsidies of about 13,500,000. Agriculture is the princip«il Italian interest, though the silk, cotton, woolen, and straw manufactures are becoming im- portant. It&lj abounds in populous cities, of which Naples, 463,172, is the largest, and Rome, the capital, has 273,268.

Railway communica- tion has been greatly developed of late, there being 3,703 miles of railway in opera- tion. The country is so mountainous that the government and the railroad com- panies have spent large sums of money in the construction of some of the lines. If their freight tariffs are, however, compared yrith those of other countries, and the commercial movement, which is yet in its cradle, is taken into considei'ation, it will be seen that railroads afford security to the Inhabitants and a daily increasing trade. There are about 19,027 miles of telegraph, including government, private and railway lines. The chief communication is by the highways between principal Cities, on which many lines of stages are constantly plying. The country is rich in agriculture and mineral wealth, vast table-lands, varying from 3000 to 5000 feet in elevation, pro- ducing every variety of grain and vegetables, while in the warmer regions oranges and other tropical fruits grow profusely. Coffee and cotton are largely cultivated. The noithern States of Mexico are full of vast herds of cattle and sheep.

The revenue is chiefly derived from the sale of gruano and nitrate of soda. The importations of 1884 were $10,568,448, and the ex- ports $7,456,8-28. The premium on specie is 62 per cent, and the domestic debt sells at 50 cents on the dollar. The army consists of 4,670 men, besides 1,000 gendarmes and 1.200 vigilantes.

Thus, the 85th Congress = 70 + 1789 = 1859, that being the year which terminated the 86th Congress, on the 4th of March. To find the number of a Cougress sitting in atiy given vear, subtract 17S9 from the year ; if the result is an even number, half that number wiligive the Congress, of which the year in question will be the closing year. If the result is an odd number, add one to it, and half the result will give the Congress, of which the year in questioo will be the llrst year. 136 THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES. 50th Congress.— March 4, 1887, to March 4, 1889.

Each Oon- gressional District and Territory— also the District Of Columbia— is entitled to have <Hie cadet at the Academy; the cadet to be named by the Representative in Congress. There are also ten appointments at large, specially conferr^ by the President of the United States. The number of students is thus limited to 844. Appointments are usually made one year in advance of date of admission, and may be made either after competitive examination or given direct, at the option of the Representative. The Congressman, should be desire, may nomi- nate a legally qualified alternate^ who will be examined with the regular nomi- nee^ and admitted in the event of his success and the latter's failure to pass the prescribed preliminary examinations. Appointees to the Military Academy must be between 17 and 22 years of age, free from any infirmity, and able to pass a careful examiSAtion in reading, writing, orthc^^raphy, arithmetic, grammar, geography, and history of the United States. Tlie course of instruction, which is quite thorough, requires four years, and is largely mathematical and professional. The principal subjects taught are maihemptics, French, drawing, tactics of all arms of tne service, natural and experimental philosophy, cheooistry, mineridogy, geology, and electricity, his- tory, international, constitutional, and military law, Spanish, and civil and military engineering and science of war. About one fourth of those appointed usually fail to pass the preliminary examination, and but little over one half the remainder llnally graduate. The discipline is very strict, even more so than in the army, and the enforce- ment of penalties for ofFences is inflexible rather than severe. Academic duties commence S^tember 1 and continue until June 1. Examinations are held in Januaiy and June, and cadets found proficient in studies and correct in conduct are given the standing in their class to which their merits entitle them, whfle those deficient in either conduct or studies are discharged. From about the middle of June to the end of August cadets live in camp engaged onlv in military duties and receiving practical military instruction. "nie pay of a cadet is $540.00 per year, and with proper economy is sufficient for his support. The number of students at the euxdemv is usually about 800. Upo9 graduating cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U. 8 army. Each cadet must bind himself to serve the United States eight years from the time ot admission to the academy. The whole number of graduates from 1808 to 1886 has been 817S. 173 AMERICAN ALMANAC JFOR 1887. NAVY OFFICERS. From the Navy Register of the tTnited States, July, 1886, with additfons. ADMIBAI^. Namr.

THE "DNITBD STATES NAVAL ACADEMY AT ANNAPOLIS. The United States Naval Academy was opened October 10, 1846, and the credit a* Its foundation is attributed to Hon. George Bancroft, then Secretary of the Navy, under President Polk. The course of instruction, designed to train midshipmen for the Navy, at first occupied five years, of which three were pMsed at sea. Vari- ous changes have been made in the course of instruction, which was made seven years in 1850, four years in 1851, and six years (the last two of which are spent at sea,) March 3, 187^, where it now remains. The Naval Academy, first located at Annapolis, Maryland, was removed to Newport, R. I., in May, 1861, but re-established at Annapolis in September, 1866, where it now is, occupying lands formerly known as Fort Severn. Tne Academy is under the direct care and supervision of the Navy DeiMirtment. There are to be allowed in the Academy one naval ^idet for every member or delegate to the House of Representatives, appointed at his nomination, one for the District of Columbia, and ten appointed at large by the President. The number of appointments which can be made is limited by law to twenty-five each year, named by the Secretary of the Navy after competitive examinations, the cadets being from U to 18 years of age. The successful candidates beoonae students of the Academy and receive the pay of naval cadets— 1500 per annum. Cadets who graduate are appointed in the order of merit to the lower grades of the line and engineer corps of the Navy and of the marine corps, as fast as vacancies occur. But such appointments cannot be made in excess of vacancies, and graduates who receive no appointments get an honorable discharge with one year S s6a pay. The course of instruction is thorough.
