Wasiiisgtok, Jan. 2 It is expected that the advent of the new administration will give things something of a boom in Washington, The city will fill up with strangers, and the hotels will be crowded. The old residents, who are nearly all Democrats, are already shoeing their confidence in the ability of the party to inflate things by erecting manv new buildings and rejuvenation old ones. There is an air of newnejs about most of the things. Heal cstat3 men pay rents have stiffened and prices are firm. They can not cay whether this Is natural or artificial. Ue Ibat as it may, it is demonstrated here that the Southern people have rerjewed confidence in business matters. What Uandall Would Do aa Treasurer. B pedal to the Sentinel. Washington', Jan. 2. Should Samuel J. Kan dal J, of Pennsylvania, vro into the Cabiret as Secretary of the Treasury it is said he will adopt the suggestion of Secretary McColIoch, who said the depigment could ba run with half the force, and curtail expensei b? a wholesale discharge of employes. Mr. Kmdall is very icdostrions. He believes aUo in retrenchment. lie is a reformer, lie is likewise an economist. There are very few employes at the Treasury nowadays who are not including in their supplications tho hope that Mr. llandall will etay in the Uoase.

FibMiXGiiAM Ala , Jan. 2 B rmingham's distinguished visitors were favored with the best possible weather on this, their sec or. d day here. It was cold and raw yesterday and Lnt n'ght, but the saa shone brightly all to-day and the temperature was much milder. Mr. Randall and party, with several distinguished gentlemen from other places in Alabama, and some twenty-five prominent citizens of Birmingham, devoted nearly the whole day to a visit to Iron mines on the Birmingham Mineral Rail road, a short road of two arm?, ttrikirg the Louisville und Naihville, one ebout four and the ether six miles south of Birmingham. The first place visited was the Sloss mines, at the southern terminus of the northern arm of the Mineral Railroad. Here the iron ore is mined on Red Mountain, from a vein extending tearly 10) miles, and at this point fourteen feet thick. The pirty spent some fifteen minutes in the mines. Then they visited the Woodward Iron Company's furnace and coal mine, short distance cil the Birmingham Mineral Read, and after a few min- 1 utcs spent at each of these places, I went to the Morris mines, at the southern i terminus of the southern arm of the Birmingham Mineral Road, oc the opposite side of Red Mountain. Here a vein of twentytwo feet of red fossil ore is dug from the top of tbe mountain, a large proportion of tbe output going to the Tennessee and Geargia furnaces, in the Chattanooga District. From here the party returned to the city, reaching hers about 1 o'clock. There was no speech-making cr ceremonies of any kind duriug the day. Tbe trip was made ia a special train, furnished by the L. and N. Road. Lcng before the hour appointed O'Brien's Opera House was crowded in every part with an audience composed of citizens of this end the neighboicg communities'. The oDera house was elaborately and tsstefuliy decorated, inside and out. On the stte was a notable display, the principal features being a native industrial exhibit, comprising bales cf cotton, lumps cf coal, varieties of iron ore. pig iron and other manufactured products. Numerous national flags and bunting were arranged about the stage so ai to make a very pi easing and striking effect. Mayor A. O. Lane, in a graceful and fitting manner, introduced Mr. Randall to the audience. He came to the fron. lithe midst of tamaltuous and' lcng continued applaUso! Mr. Randall spoke about forty minutes; recsiving froquent applause and cheers. He said he had been the recipient of so much kind consideration, and had received such high honor since coming South, that he confessed he could not find adequate language to express his feelings therelor. His mis lion to Alabama was conceived months ago, and his object was neither a personal nor political one; itwa?, as originally contemplated, business that brought him here. lie confessed he was gratified beyond newure by kindness, induced in same rceaeure by tbe services he had been able to render to the Southern States. Ween the time came to build up, he wanted to build, and when the time came to put the past behind bim he wanted to forget it. He was more than pleased to note the evidences of progress be had ooserved. During a visit here in 1SG7 there was mined ia Alabama about 1G.000 tons of coal a year; to-day a fair statement, say of a single mine a short distance from this town, put out 2V000 tons daily, la IS'il there was not produced in tbe State much over o.OOO tons of iron; today a fair estimate was, to say, I'OOO tons was tbe annually produced. After adducing further statistics relative to the industrial progress of tbe State, Mr. Randall proceeded to state his position upon the tarilf. which was substantially tbe same as enuncittel at Louisville and Nashviile, viz: for the abolifchruentof internal revenue, as a war msasure it was illegal and unjust in timss of peace. aad otherwise standing upon tha Chicago platform. Before he con eluded Mr. Randall predicted that Alab.aou, by reason of tho development of its resource, would be one of the rictus: States in the Union. The New Jersey Consrticman, Mr. McAdoo, was then Introduced by Mayor Lnae, and responded in his characteristic wiy, eliciting frequent laughter and applause by his facetious sallies. Touching upon the incidents of tbe late Presidential campaign ard Mr. Blaine's conduct since the election, Mr. McAdoo aid he disdained to kick a corpse, but when a corpse misbehaved his toea itched to ba broueht into anion. He said, a'so, that with Kentucky whisky and Alabama iron a national tonic could be made which, if taken early in the morning, even on short sessions, would materially help Congressmen so do a little work. lx)ud calls were made at the end of McAdco a remarks for Colonel Colyer, of Tennessee, and that gentleman spoke brletly of Mr. Randall's services in the past end the cordiality of his reception in the cities visited An allusion to Mr. Watterson's animadversions on the r.bjct of Randall's Southern tour, in which the speaker (aid it was a harmless monomania, was loudly applauded. After the speaking the distinguished visitors from the North, and many from S mthern cities, repaired to the Florence Hotel, where a great banquet was spread, and totj diur-k and responded to.
