, THE NAVY

| have been informed by gentleman Of highly
respectable character, in casual conversation on
the circumstances Of our Navy being manned to
a considerable extent by foreigners, Of an occur
renee which took place on board one Of our YES
sells, the Vandalia, some years ago, not only cal
cllated to condemn the pratice of employing for
egners in that service, but to inspire the deepest
prejudices against them. An Englishman, who
held the post Of gunners mate was often heard to
boast Of his being an Englisman; and on one occa-
sion declared that he was among the Number Of
those who sacked and desoated Hampton and its
vicinity, and perpetrated the brutal outrages upon
the helpless females of that i'll fated place. under
that notorious ruflian Cockburn.
The Commander Of the Vandaha, on hearing
of this williams declaration, Immediately subjected
him to the lash broke him from his post and dis
rated him to that Of common sailor. My in
formant, who belonged to the navy, was present
and personally witnessed what is stated.
Fhe Commander did well, but he would have
acquitted himself more in conformity with my
opinion Of his duty, had he, after applying the
cat-onine-,ails with the rgoar suited to the crime,
discharged the culprit from the service, especially
as he experienced great delight in narra.ing his
deeds Of cruelty, and expressed strong desire for
ION occasion to repeat them.

There has been as far as observe, no cause
assigned for the two great fires which have lately
occurred almost simultaneously, in Philadelphi:
and New York The periods Of their occurrence
and the great devastation and loss of property
which has resulted therefrom, make it highly de
srabe that the public should be satisfied, a.
least in some measure, as to their origin. My
own reflections by no means bring me to the con-
clusion, that they are attributable to accident.
Confined in both places to the seat of commerce,
and to the magazines of rich merchandise, the
vigilance with which the presence Of fire would
be guarded against, forbids such conclusion.
In these days Of agitation, false doctrine, and
the array of class against class when our great
cities swarm with imported vice, and crime of all
grades, from mere loaersm to the blacklist felony,
il would be no matter of surprise that the torch
Of the ncendiary should be found in hands that
so frequently grasp the weapon Of the murderer.
There are among us too many possessed with the
wild notion, instled into their minds by unhoy
apostles, on both sides ofthe Atlantic, not SO mach
that all men are born free and equal" as that,
when they find that vice and ignorance forbid
them equality with others, LIBERTY permits them
to obtain that equality in their own way.

have often received from men who rank high
in the navy, and whose standing in society claims
entire confidence in what they say, similar ac-
counts OF these foreign seamen going TO shoW
the propreiy Of disseminating the practice Of iak-
ing them into our naval service. This ought TO
be done for the honor of the navy and the safety
of the country. We all desire this in proportion
to our high appreciation of this arm of our ma
lional defence--our exalted opinion of the skill
and bravery ofour native seamen, and our fervcnt
love of country. Sooner than this state Of things
should continue |, and no doubt all Of us, should
liketo see the alternative offered ON the part Of
our native officers and seanen, that either the
Government must cxpel these interlopers from
our naval vessels, or that our own citizens will
quit the service. II.

ward Raymond, broker in Washington street.
was brought before the Police Court for exanina-
ton, upon charge Of selling three hundred lot
terry tickets. The principal witness against him
was Thomas Thompson, retail dry good dealer
lin Washington street, near Raymond's Office. He
said that he had bought over one thousand tickets
of Raymond withina year, at prices varying from
one dollar to 6 dollars apiece, according to the
scheme. lie purchased tickets almost every day,
Sundays excepted. All the tickets were on the
School Fund Lottery in Rhode Island. He fur
Their testified that he had recently failed, and that
his creditors wished to know what had become
of his property, and he told them that he had OK
pended it all in lottery tickets, except so much as
he spent for his living. For the want Of bail in
the havy sum Of ten thousand dollars, for his APP
pearance at the Municipal Court, he was COM
mitted to Jail.
