NAVAL OPERATIONS.

WAsHINGroN CITY, June 2G.-The fol
lowing vessels of war, we understand, are
now equipping for sea with all possible
despatch, to wit: North Ca,olna, ~,
Commodore Rodgers ; Constellation, Al,
Commodore Marlborough Hornet, 22,
Capt. Kennedy; Ontario, -, Capt. Nchol
SON Shark, Il, Lieut.. Stevens Porpoise,
IL, Lieut.. Skinner ; Store ship Decoy, Lit.

We should presume that a considerable
portion of this armament, is intended to
shew isf along the coasts of South A
merica, in order To impress the nations
there with proper idea Of our naval
strength. We shall be glad to find it so ;
and trust that the President intends tn com
bine this exhibition Of national power with
suitable display of diplomatic dignity
and talent in those interesting regions, in
counteractlon of the impressions and ne
gotiatians now evidently attempting To
be effected by several Of the most i'm
posing cabinets OF Europe. Gaz.
