Com. Warrington from the Navy Board:

The National thus remarks on the removal of
Com. Warrington from the Navy Board:
"The Individual who was the subject of Pres
idential displeasure in this instance, Is known to
his country as one of her bravest defenders in
war, and one of her most cherished ornaments In
peace; as the gallant and glorious victor ot the
Eperrier, at the time when to conquer the proud
s.mistress of the seas on her own element. was
the most precious deed Of chivalry;as a tacuclan
profoundly skilled in the science of naval war: as
a man of genius. cultivated taste, and p~ersever-
ing ardor, who, in any other profession, as well
as i'm that which he selected, would have attained
the highest eminence; as the accomplished. high
minded and honorable gentleman; and is the CT
tizen, whose private life was as pure and bene-
violent as his public career was splendid. Yet,
this man. crowned with a nations praises, admir-
ed and beloved, has been selecteda4s an objectot
Prescription!
What were the Immediate motives to this dis
graceful act, we are not exactly Informed. We
have reason, however, to believe that they are
connected with the fact, that Com. Warrington
is the brother in law of Miles king,late Navy agent
at Norfolk, whom General Jackson dismissed from
Office in order to punish him for giving his vote TO
MIR. Adams, and to reward one of the signers OF
the Richmond Jackson Address. 1t has been
stated that after a resolution had passed the House
of Representatives, calling on the Secretary OF
the Navy for information concerning Mr.. Kings
accounts. the Board of Navy Commissioners eX-
pected that application would be made to them to
contribute to it, many facts having a material
bearing on the case being i'll their possession.-
No such application was, however made to them;
and, 1t is quite possible, though we DO not speak
ccnfdentially, that Commodore Warrington, a
member of the Board, may have expressed some
surprise at the omission. If such expression ever
reached General JacksOn's ears, sufficient cause
in his estimation, of course. existed for the reno
val Of the Commodore; for what pubic o;icer can

The Hall of Represeniaiires.-Ih following
extract of a letter from a Washington cOrrespon-
dent TO the Editor of the Boston Palladium, gives
US mere information than we had before OF an al
~teration wBch is about to be made III the interior
of the Representatives Chamber:
1.-The House of Representatives is destined to
undergo i reform during the recess. Inc moor,
as nv understanding is. will be considerably ele'
waited, and the galleries abridged. I'ns may be
an Improvement of the Hall as far as regards the
facility of transmitting sounds, but they VIII
come TO the ear like the conflicting tongues which
were heard from the tower of Babel. 1t will
no. be the solitary voice of the orator that will
erect the listener: but the buzz of a multitude OF
voices. indistinct, vet distinct enough to stun,
confound and perplex so as to prevent the one
voice from being Ineligible. Mr.. Bulfinch, the old
architect. contends that it is an experiment which
de6es not only all the rules of architectural SCI
ence. but all the notions of common sense and
experience; and he predicts that the result will
be a waste of public money, without the attain
ment of the slightest public advantages IN return.
On the other hand, Messrs. McDnffie, VerplancS,
and the rest of the Committee to whom the eXa-
miuation of the subject was delegated. are very
sanguine in the expectation OF a successful result"

The Troy Budget informs its readers that one
of the compositors in that office, c. Newcomb'
on Wednesday last. set up eleren thousand screen

nublisher of the New York Advertiser informs us
that one of the apprentices in that office, James b;
Anderson, set up fifteen thousand eight hundred
