gradual increase arc completely within the
reach Of our national resources, independ-

are al at command. Steps have been Ia

nish the several supplies which may be re-
Qnired.
The commerce Of the u. S. increasing
with the resources and population of the
country, will require a commensurate pro-
lection, which a navy alone can afford
and the experience derived from the ac-
tive and vigorous employment of a iin,i-
red nary, during the period of the late
war, has demonstrated it's efficient ut.li-
ty.

mend An annual increase of our navy OF

he concentration OF our navy in one or
two of the principal ports of the u. States,
where the depth of water is suffi lent for
the convenient irgrcss and egress of the
larger vessels, will necessarily lead to the
enlargement of the navy yards at such pia-
ces, with docks for repairs and the collec-
ton OF all important materials, for the ar
mament and equipments of the different
classes of vessels, in order to bring them
into active service, upon any emergen-
cy, with the advantage of combined force.
A general system for the gradual and
permanent increase Of the Navy, combin-
ing all the various objects connected with
an enlarged naval establishment, such as
building docks, and extending the accom-
modations of navy wards and arsenals of
general deposit, will form the subject
of a more extensive report, to be laid
before Congress during the present ses-

l7ej. Gen. Jacoh Brown.
SIR-As cadets of country, the happi-
ness Of which, great as it is, may chiefly be
ascrihed 10 the liberty and independence of
its people, we heartily congratulate one of
its brsvest supporters, the hero of Niagara
and Sackctt's Harbour, on his safe arrival
among us from the theatre of victories,
glorious for himself as honorable for our
country. We but do justice to our feelings
by Selling this opportunity of presenting
our highest tribute of respect to General
Brown, for his heroic example, in imitation
of which Americans viii emulously bleed
to PR serve that liberty, from which the
happiness of every country flows.
Probably all of us will soon enter upon a
military career. We feel happy in having
among cur own countrymen some of the
most brilliant examples of military talents
for our imitation, and we are proud TO
rank among the first, the name of Maj
Gen. Brown.
We present TO you our cordial thanks
for the present visit, and consider it an no.
nor to The military academy.
With sentiments OF respect, we are your

THE CREEK INDIANS.

" THE STORM is BLOWN OVER"
We have learned from a source which
admits of no doubt upon the subject, that
the commissioners had nearly finished run
ming the boundary line in the Creek natl
on, agreeably to the treaty made by Gen.
Jackson, without any interruption; and
that before this time, it has been compile
ted, and the commissioners are on their
way home.
Lieut.. Harvey, late of the 39th infantry,
returned here from the nation ON Thurs
day last. He remained with the commits
sioners until they had nearly gone through
their labors, and all apprehension of dan
ger had subsidized. He states, that for a
considerable time, many persons expected
resistance from the Indians; but none was
ever attempted. 1t was not true that a
trga number of Indians had embodied
with hostile views, as had been reported.
A few of the chiefs however, did express
considerable dissatisfaction at losing so
much Of their country but they did not
even SO 81 far as to threaten a resistance to
the running of the boundary line.
Fort N,Aiiama, we understand, has been
burnt, and not fort Jackson, as was re
ported. 1t was done by our own men but
whether by accident or design we do not
know.
