THE ARMY AND NAVY.

We did suppose that the present Congress had long
ago done about much it could to bring itself and
the nation into disrepute. We had made up our
minds to be astonshed at nothing that it might do UNI
less by strange reformation it should chance to
act IN a manner worthy Of the Republic. But we
confess that we are amazed and COMPOUNDED by the
headlong move that has been made in the House for
the reduction of our little Army and NAVY We can
scarcely find words with which to express our views
of this rash and i'll advised STEP 1t is more than
could reasonably be looked for even from Congress
SO marked with eccentricity and delinquency as this
has been.

while our commerce is rapidly spreading itself over

talking OF cutting down army of twelve thousand

II is now conceded on all hands that Mr. Roberts,
the Collector of the port of Philadelphia, is to be
speedily removed from Office. The Washington cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Evening Journal says,
"hs is positively determined on, and then The sweep

Well, the Clay men cannot complain,-their imma-
cuate chief who can in their eyes, do no wrong has,
by his violent, undignifed, and prosecuting conduct
rendered 1t absolutely necessary that the President

The irigate Rartan, was not launched, last We1nes
day. as it had been ordered by the Board of Navy
Commissioners, and announced by the commandant
Of the yard. The cause of it, was the defeat Of the
bill in The House of Representatives making appro-
priations for the Mayor more properly the reduc-
ton of the amount recommended and necessary for
the support of this department. to such extent
forbid the fitting on, of the vessels about to be
launched The order countermanding the launch,
reached Philadelphia, after IL o'clock on Tuesday
night and notice of the fact given early the
suing morning; but it was either generally unbe-
iieved unseen, for vast concourse of people
sembled at the yard to witness the expected scene,
who it is said, could hardly be persuaded into be-
lief of their disappointment.
The same messenger fastened on TO New York TO
counermand the launching of the Savannah, at that
port, which to take place the day. but at
about o'clock in the morning. He was too late,
however and the Savannah now floats upon her ''

The conduct of Congress in regard to The Navy
appropriations, is highly censurabe, and doubt

other. The Navy is the pet of the country. All
parties in every quarter, desire to see it growing
with our growth, and strengthening with our
strength; !" while not word of complaint is ever
heard against any calculated to bring about
his desirable consummation. The present Admins
ration understanding the real Importance of this
of our defence, and desiring also to meet the unani
nous wishes of the people, have made praiseworthy
efforts to renovate and strengthen the Navy, and to
make it indeed worthy of our great Republic. For
this, universal credit bestowed. But the
hands of the Administration tied they are
hwarted in their fond expectations, by the contcmpti
bic conduct of Congress, if we may SO express our
SELF in refusing to vote money for the actual require
ments ofthe Department Ofthe cause of this extra
ordinary proceeding, we have means of judging
with certainty; but it does really TO if hos
tity to the President was the ruling motive No
good reason thus far has been assigned and in the
absence of such, bound to believe that of
the greanteress of the country has again been made
to wither by the poisonous breath of that monster,
party spirit And if 50, how deeplyis it to be de-
pIored Devoutly will the day be hailed when Con-
gress shall legisate solely for the good of the
try when politicians, merely SUCH shall find
rest there for the soles of their feet when measures
shall be judged OF, not whether they will tend to up
set an Administration, benefit party, curse it
but whether, after calm, just and careful examna-
ton OF neir merits, they well adapted the OBJ
jects which they designed to accomplish.

CONGRESS-THE NAVY-PUBLlC MEET

dsgraceful conduct of Congress, for their attempts
to disorganize the navy. All parties joined in the

There is also TO be meeting of the citizens of
BROOKLYN tonight to take also into consideration the
recent conduct of Congress in cutting down the Navy.
1t is expected to be the largest meeting ever held in
that city.
In connection with this we learn that orders have
been received from Washington to lay up the steam
ship Mississippi in ordinary and to stop work the
experimental steamer building in the yard. Nearly
all the hands have been discharged, and every thing
is in statu quo
Is it not time for New York to mover
