CRUELTY in THE NAVY.

We find the following in late number of the
Old Dominion, and we ask with amazement if
the charges can be uue2 Will not the present
efficient Secretary ascertain the facts in The
case2
II is said that Capt VOORHEES,, on leaving the Canes
OF Virginia, at the commencement of his cruise had
the whole crew assembled, and made the follow inc
proclamation:
"Ipish every to understand that fhe is reported
Ipili punish him phether RIGHT OR WRONG for / be-
hepe that can place confidence in my officers that tteu
,olH not report man ,cithoM cause"
This fact we have vouched to us by one, with re-
ference to two other petty officers of the ship whose
names shall be given whenever the Secretary NAV
demand them for the purpose of having justice dealt
out to the offender. On our stating this order to
distinguished Naval officer, who ranks high on his
countrys annals, and asking his opinion he SAID i,
was equivalent to declaring that his ship should ,oiness
perpetual punishment.
Under this brutal policy, developed in the order
above set forth, punishment perpetual, and the
charge is boldly made that more than one sailor or
inferior person was WHIPPED TO DEATH! This we do
know, that the officers of that ship did not dare to
stay with and minge with the men, but hurried them
selves Oh at the earliest moment for threats of ven
geance were loud and deep against them, and we
have no doubt, had the been discharged serious
scenes would have been witnessed in this town
1t Is the duty of the Government to interpose ts
power between the Commander and his victim, and
We call upon the Secretary in behalf of Justice and
humanity 10 have this matter thoroughly probed

THE WEATHER.

Last evening, the wind after raising ire
mendous dust and slamming all the doors, win
dow blinds, and old garden gates in the city
took its departure and permitted the willing
clouds to rain undisturbed. The rain continued
with slight intermissions through the night, &C.
companied by thunder and lightning. The lat
ter rather extra.
This morning the trees have grown larger
and the gsin drops glitter upon myriads of new
leaves formed at the extremes OF branches scarce
ly visible before. All ladies OF our acquaintance
who could possibly leave off sleeping, were out
before sun rise plucking blooming roses to adorn
their lovely forms, and pryng into rain water
hogsheads as Narcissus looked into his walery
mirror, somewhat curious and particularly well
pleased.
The avenue that has been like A. GORDON
PrM's highway to the internal regions, for the last
month, is now quiet again, and lies like brown
ribbon extended from the Presidents House to
the Capitol Hill. The Street Commissioners
have avoided much unpleasant duty by putting
it off until The rain came; and if old shoes and
brick bats could be washed away by a flood, we
should never care about seeing them in our vi
cinty again As it is, however, if they ever
happen 10 pass up ii street, between 18th and
14th streets, they may see something requiring
their attention if they look sharp.

COMMUNICATED.
HIGHLY IMPORTANT.

We beg leave To call the attention Of the Govern
msnt and the American people To AN item OF news
from Madrid, which we hold TO be Of the very high
est importance. Great Britain II appears, has for
long time kept pontoon ship of war IN the Harbor
Of the Havana for the reception OF captured slaves
This constant spectacle Of British power and pre-
sence has given offence To the citizens Of the Havana
If not To the government Of the Island. Represents
tons TO that effect have been made To Lord Aber
deem aud his lordsbip very obligngly agrees to re-
move the nuisance, provided Spain will concede Il
England some convenient place the shores of Cubs
where she build proiessedly receptacle for lib
Grated negroes but in reality where another St JeaI
d.Acre, another Malta or Gilraltar can be erected
from whence 10 control the commerce Of the Gulf
10 make the conquest Of the Island peaceaby If the,
can, forcibly Il they must-or pour out black regi
meots Southern shores in the event Of wal
between this country aud England. There is no mis-
taking the import or importance Of this movement Of
the English Ministry, and we invite to il the promp
and serious attention Of the President.

BOSTON NAVY AGENT.

We have received a remarkably well written
communication, from highly respectable gen
tleman in the city of Boston, animadvertin in
the strongest terms upon a late article in the
Globe, in relation to the appointment of Mr..
Wright as Navy Agent. We hope moi TO give
offence TO the writer, whom we remember with
the highest respect when we say that we mus,
beg leave to withhold his communication from
the public eye for the present We do this,
not because that Mr.. Wright happens to be a
personal friend; that would not weigh with US
straw's value, if we deemed it our duty to
insert the communication but we think that no
good can result from theIcon,inuance of the
controversy. We fully and heartily endorse the
truth and justice of the following extract from
the communication Of our correspondent, in re-
la,ion to the excellence of the Worcester Pal
ladium:
"Now to us here, who are perfectly familiar with
all the circum of the case the statements Of the
article in the Globe supremacy ridiculous To call
in question the standing motives Of the orcester
Palladium among persons familiar with its character
is task futile in the extreme. That journal nesds
no endorsement from the Globe or from the writer

not the first among the democratic family in New
England, for ability, dignity, and unwavering advo-
cacy OF democratic principles, of the srictest Sect II
has no superior among the many able democratic
pl esses of this section Its able advocacy of all the
leading measures of the democracy has been such
to call forth encomlums from many distinguished gen.
uemen of the party in various sections of the country
including member, Of the present Cabine The oca-
ton of the Palladium is in the 9Th Congressional
District of this State, district which, at the election
for the 2Sth Congress, nominated their candidate
the Hon. David Henshaw. The nomination was fairly
and openly made, in open convention, by delegates
chosen by The people themselves. The nomination was
acquiesced in and perfectly satisfactory to- the people
Of The district, and no found fault with it, until
the Bay State Democrat, published in Boston, at re-
mote distance from the 9Th district, commenced wa,
upon the regular nominee of the party and by accu
sations the most unfounded both on the public and
private character Of the distinguished nominee, pro-
duced 70 much effect to elect Wing to Congress.

THE SECRETARY OF WAR.

We copy the following article from the Chi
esgo Democrat, and ask ios it the attention of
our friends aud Of the public generally
"Ws regret To see Ia some on, of the dem tic
papers la New YOIk, attacks upon this dist ing ushsd
statesman, who has ust been appointed Secretary OF
War and must protest sgans, any differences that
may exist IN New York la relation 10 the propnety OF
amending the constitution Of that State being inter
with the policy OF the democratic party in this
Union. Inaead We give the internal quarrel Of New
York too much importance when state that Il Is
about The property of changing the constitution Of
that State. II mistake moi the difference is only
10 the mean. Of making the change, some prefer
ring convention, and some preierrng 10 submit tho
proposed amendments directly TO The people. But
with this have nothing To do. All we want is that
the New York democrats should keep their quarrels

Almost every afternoon, when the weather is
pleasant, an intelligent-looking, brisk-moying,
snguarly dressed old gentlemen, may be seen
pulling for the long bridge, like Peter Schimel,
after his shadow, smiling 10 every greeter and
gazpg about him with an eye as insatiate as
that Of the sea Eagle, on an ocean erag. Hav-
ing reached the bridge, the spectator behods

seat himself on the rough pier, and bob with as

crowned hat and silk stockings, and knee

springing up with the alacrity Of youth al every

MR.. CALHOUN'S FRIENDS.


We find the following paragraph in the South
ern Advocate, a Wing paper published at Hunts
vile, Alabama, which requires explanation:
According to the Madsonian, the removal of Mr..
Williams, the collector of Boston, direct slight
of Mr.. Calhoun. The Madisonian says: Mr.. w. is
warm friend Of Mr. Calhoun's, and we understand,
in consequence of his intimate personal and political
relations with Mr. w. of long standing he departed
from his general rule and expressed his desire to Pre-
sident Tyler to have MIR. w. appointed"
If the Madisonian ever said any such thing,
it was, of course, before it passed into the hands
of the present proprietor. This statement
is incorrect. Mr.. Williams pas MOI APP
pointed because he was the friend of Mr..
Calhoun, but because he aoas the only person
(then) before the Cabinet as a candidate for the
ofiice--THIs WE HAPPEN TO KNOW AS TO "the
intimate personal and political relations" sc.
that is a poetcal license which may be excused
when one wishes to make out strong case.
The Wing papers have been industriously en-
gagged in endeavoring to ALLEVIATE the friends of
MIR. Calhoun from the President; in order to do
this they have relied almost wholly upon the
case we have alluded to above If the facts
were all known, no friend Of Mr.. Calhoun
would have reason to complain of injustice.
None was intended-none has been done. Win
our Wing friends "uy again2"

where in the State of Maine, that this sterling
advocate of Democracy els 10 be remored"
from The office of Collector in the city of New
York. 1t is great mistake--no such thing is
though, of by anybody except few disappoint-
ed politicians of that State, who did NOT aid in
the election Of Mr.. Polk. The People, the
masses, too well know how much they owe TO
the unwearied exer'ions of Gov. Van Ness
during the late Presidential contest, to consent
to his removal. He is faithful and efficient
officer, and will continue, we doubt not, TO hold
