THE NAVY.


The following sensible remarks, by
Paul Allen, ESQ. will no doubt be read
with real pleasure - IN: Y. GaS.
1t is peculiarly animating to behold
the progress made in the United States,
in our naval establishment. The launch
of seyenty-four occasions no surprise.
and is looked upon as nothing more
than the gradual accomplishment of
system of maritime defence, which we
have been led to consider as indispcnsi,
ble. There is something majestic, in a
moral point of view, in these prelimina-
nv preparations, for future battle. We
behold great nation gradually devclo-
ping its strength, and unfolding it's en-
ergiea. While the countenances of our
fellow citizens are gay with the smiles
of peace, the ocean thunders of Ameri-
ca are preparing in secrecy, and in 81
Ience. We have learnt wisdom from
experience; VIC have been taught that
cool refreshing, fragrant, and serene
as the armament may be, The cloud that
lowers in the skirts OF the horizon, may
be the sable couch, on which the sleep
ing demon Of the tempest may be repos-
inc his vengeance. Washington has
long since told us, that there is a rank
due 20 the U. States, amongst nations,
than will DC withheld, if not absolutely
lost, by the reputation of weakness
Every frigate, every seventy four, that
is now floating upon our waters, or
standing upon the stocks, is but prac-
teal comment on the principles OF
Washington. The present unsettled
state of Europe-the evident symptoms
Of future turbulence, displayed in all the
European Governments, are arguments
/ in themselves irresistible, why the sys-
tenn Of policy recommended by Wash
ington, should be actively and prompt
Iy adopted. No time is to be lost in
making vigorous preparation fer de
fence. 1t is but marrow and short
sighted policy, to neglect such mea-
sures merely because our enemies are
not seen, because we cannot see the

Extract Of letter from the American Con
sui al the Cape de Verd Islands, to the
Editors of the Boston Patriot, dated
V'lla da Prnyo, St. Jago.
Cope de Verds, APRIL FL, 1890.
The Venezuelan priyateer captured with
her two prizes by his Britannia Nlajesty's
ship MyrInidon, Capt. III. Leeke. and car
risd 10 Sierra Leone, am informed by capt.
Leeke, who arrived here on the iIth inst.
was the A., formerly the Baltimore, of
Baltimore, commanded by captain Simeon
Metcalt, OF Saybrook, Connecticut.
The prizes to the privateer were Spanish
slaves, captured near Cape Mount--Capt
Metcalf engaged eigh. slave vessels, and af-
ter severe engagement of two hours and
forty minutes, succeeded in capturing the
two. six having made their escape, whenthe
next day he fell in with, and was captured
by the Myrmdon.
Came into this harbor in company with
| the Myrmidon on the 18th inst. large beau
tiful schooner, copper fastened and copper
ed, upwards OF 200 tons burthen, mounting
10 guns, her. tender, captured near Cape
! Mount, under Portuguese colors, having one
slave on board. She was commanded by
Capt. Green, and owned, as some of the
crew testified in cortland from papers found
on board, in Bristol. R. /. After condemna-
ton, Capt Leeke purchased her tor his len.
I der. but yesterday disposed of her here at a
very large advance.
/ The United States ship Cyane, Captain
Trenchard, has gone down to Sheabar; and
the Rev. Mr.. Bacon purchased o. capt. Leeke

i coed with some officers of the Cyane, along

confagration so fierce and extensive.
The sufferers by the FIRE are Mr.. Cuyilier,
Mr.. Guinaud, Dr.. Dow, the Corporation. the
jU. States, and several individuals whose
names we did not ascertain: Five or six
dwelling houses, the Sale de Condo ball
room and the store and mechanics work
shops attached to the navy yard lave been
consumed. The loss sustained we fear has
been great though the amount is not yet as
certained. The FIRE ragged for about hours.
The following notice has been forwarded
by Messrs. Hudig and Blocktruyzen, Ship
Brokers, Rotterdam, for the benefit OF Anne
rican masters Of vessels.
NOTICE TO MARINERS.
The Minister of Marine, hereby notices
all ship masters, and whom else it may con-
Germ, that Wooden Beacon, in the shape
of pyramid, has been erected on Inc
Northwest Coast Of the Island Of Goeree,
having light at the top, elevated 80 Rhine
land feet [equal to 80 English ieetl above
high water mark. to serve as a day and night
mark for making the W. Channel OF Goeree..
When this Beacon in the day is brought
on with Goeree Sieeple, or the light by night
is brought on with the light Of Goeree
Church, bearing E. S. E. is. the Channel IS
then open.
This light, which will be lighted on the
10th March. 1890, at sunset, and burn till
sunrise, is composed OF two Argand Patent
Lamps of middling size, with two parabola
plated refectors in size ,4l8 ; one OF which
rehectors points on right angle 10 tie W..
N. w. IN. and the other to the Eastward !;
said lamps giving bright and clear light.
In clear weather it may be seen at the dis
ia nee of six English miles, and is visible
from the westward of the Vostrer Bank, and
the whole extent Of the westward OF the
Vostrer Bank, and the whole extent OF the
Hinder Bank, as far as the Kwadenhoek IN
the Goeree Channel, and may be distinguish
ed from the light on Goeree Steeple by ITS
burning clear and steady, whilst that OF
Goeree Steeple being coal fire, produces
dazzling and unsteady light.
Ship masters and others, are however,
cautioned. that in case they should be under
the necessity to run into the aforesaid West
Channel by night, and without pilot,
(which should, if possible, be avoided,] the
said light in one with Goeree Steeple light
cannot serve as a mark any further than till
arrived past what is called the Droage
(Bahr : and having passed the same they
must keep along shore, about quarter OF an
English mile distant from it.

Der of Congress would see the fallacy Of
such arguments, when they were once

if he lie told that our seyenty-fours are
only the locks, bars and bolts Of The
ocean that they were constructed only
for the purpose of shutting the co0fs
OF the Atlantic, against the approach o. y
European robbers, he may not think Il
a wanton expenditure of the pubic, mo- !.
ney to build ships Of war; he may l'llhs
that such expense is not only consistent
With, but dictated by the soundest ecu
