votes had decided that the appropriation last year
the Navy enough; that it was insufficient to
protect the maritime interest Of the United States.
That decision was right. IL would be found that in
stead of having too many vessels to look to our TO-
reign commerce, we had too few. Without referring
to any allegations Of immediate belligeent
sity, he said that the peace policy Of the United
States demanded that the Navy should be maintained
on its present ootng both of personnel and materel
Then without adverting to the ordinary decamato-
ny TOPICS without discussing the gaantry and brave
ry Of the Navy, he would refer 10 one political re-
lation of this question, of vast and unceasing i'm
portance. There were in the House many
who had perpetual dread Of the augmentation of
the power of the Executive, in face of the fact that
there never was period when the power of the
Executive was so little, and when there man
fest tendency on the part of the Legislative depart
ment of the Government, he would not say to en-
croach upon, but to draw into its own hands the
functions which had heretofore been considered the
functions of the Executive. la reference to this,
and more especially to the fact that great deal had
been said about appointments, there very ma

ted States
service, the Army and Navy this permanent distnc-
ton between which pervaded all time thGt if they
were to augment the land force beyond the wants Of
the country, in that proportion they increased the
power of the Executive, and enabled it to become
dangerous in the hands of ambitious men, while no
maritime force. This universal fact in the his
tory of Republics. Athens and Carthage, in an
cient times, Venice and Genoa, in the middle
age, and Holland, in modern times, were examples.
The Army of the United States was capable Of being
employed any where and at any time; but the Navy
the ocean, and of its twelve thousand men
vey few could VOTE and they did not affect the ber-
ties of the country, either in military civil sense,
hence it had been the policy of all republics to curail
their land forces and promote the prosperity of their
naval arm of defence.
He appealed to gentlemen therefore for the fact,
that there Of apprehension to the Uni
ted States from the gradual augmentation of the Navy
and still less there any cause OF apprehension OF
the liberties of the country from maintaining it its
present footing On the contrary, if any arm of our
service is to be increased it the Navy, which,
whilst it gave military protection in war, the
safeguard of the of all parts of the coun-
try peace and in war and whilst it performed all
this important service in peace and in war; was, from
its nature, and from the genius of our institu-
TONS incapable of encloachng the liberties of the
Union.

Mr.. c. said that thus far he had argued on the
sumption that MIR. McK's premises were correct
Mr. c. doubted whether they were. He could not by
analysis show that they were incorrect, because Mr.
'>ScK. had not communicated to the committee the
elements of his calculation but Mr.. c. had examined
the subject little for himself without any bias and,
indeed, with perfect Indifference what the con-
cusion might be- his only object being that the
truth might appear. For this reason he should give
the details of his own calculation. For the same
reason, he should not give the cost per gun alone,
but should also give the cost per man, which ne con
sidered much more just criterion. He presented,
in the first place, the following:

Mr. c. then referred to the exaggerated idea when

paratvely large it was the other hand, compare
