NAVY PRoMoTIoEs.-We publish in another CO., lumu list ofrecent promotions in the navy. This reward of lsng and faithful service, (says the N. Y. American) while it is doubtless gratifying to the gal lant officers themselves, will be viewed Dy the public with great satisfaction also. It indicates not only that the country is mindful of those who devote their lives her defence but also, from the extent of the promotions, that enlargement is apout to be speedi- ly made in our wal establishment. This is greatly wanted. The institution of a Home Squadron, with the other acts of tbe Extra Session relative to the navy, will do very well for beginnings but if we would have navy commensurate with the value and extent of commerce, in keeping with the vast of the country, there is great deal yet to do before we can be said to have made even fair beRinnine.

No doubt he could give wholly different cdloring ts the state of facts and present them in entirely light But this he is not called upon to do. His position has been of immense trial and difficulty Surrounded by an aLle interested and strong party cabinet al proachng him daily and hourly with the most subtle arguments, that talent and ingenuity could urge to drive entice him from his consistency and into compliance wiih the wishes of his political friends it is not surprising that he has wavered. doubted and become confused.

BANK OR NO BAEK.-The Washington manfes to declares bank to be ihe rallyng cry of the anti Tyler and anti-democratic party. This is a admirable division of parties. and if the whig. only adhere the principle until they fary be. fore the people. we shalt have the matter of bank settled in way which it has never been before namely, by direct popular vote.
 The party is already breaking ground in opposition to Tyler, and Clay is to be the antasonistic cand date for the Presidency in 1S45. They have the matter all and dry as though there was such thing existing us a democratic party! Good easy souls! As the Frenchman said, ''They shall see vat they shall see.''
 At the recent Baltimore meeting, Mir. Clay was complimented in most magniloquent style, and the resolutions had particular squinlins towards the Presidency That gentleman very graciously dsclin- ed an invitation to public dinner, thinking it best not to strike until the iron was little heated Ills letter reminds us of the unambitous Gloster when solicited by the Lord Mayor condescendngly to take the Crown Gioster.-" Will you enforce to world of caresl We'll call them back again; made of stone, But penetrabie to your kind entreaties,
 Albeit against my conscience and my soul.
