NAVAL STORES.

For the information of those Of our readers
who may be interested in the matter, we will
state that the late act OF the Legislature regu
lating the weight and size of the barrel of
Turpentine, is as follows: Each barrel OF
Soft Turpentne is to weigh $50 lbs. gross,
and each barrel of Scrape Turpentine $40 lbs.
gross The Soft to have twelve, and the Scrape
ten, good hoops around each barrel. The
slaves are to be thirty inches long, OF the usual
thickness. The law will 60 into operation on
the first day of June next. We understand
that the law has been framed with a view Of
bringing, as nearly as possible, the weight Of
the barrel to correspond with the weight re-
CURED in New York, and also to make it a
general law throughout this State We think
upon the whole it will work we'll once it gets
into operation, for every maker of Turpentine
will know at once what he is to receive for
his labor, whether his Turpentine be hard OF
soft. II the barrel should exceed the weight
above stated, OF course he will get pay for all
that is over. We have been informed that
240 lbs OF scrape is about equal to half bar
rel of $50 lbs. of dip, and as this article
generally sells for half as much as the soft ar
ticle, it was thought right that it should be
made to correspond in value; and in addition
to this, there is another material advantage
to the maker: the same sized barrel that will
hold $50 lbs. of dip will conveniently hold
240 lbs of scrape.

GENERAL ORDER -The President has caus-
ed to be published, paragraph No. $50 OF the
Army Regulations, which is required to be
strictly observed by the Army. The paragraph
is in the following words
$3.50. Private letters or reports, relative to
military marches and operations, are frequent
ly mischievous in design, and always dis
graceful to the army. They are, therefore,
strictly forbidden; and any officer found gull
ty of making such report for publication, with
out special permission, or OF placing the wri-
ting beyond his control, so that it finds it,
way to the press, within one month after the
termination OF the campaign to which it re-
lates, shall be dismissed from the service
The above order has been in existance since
1925, but it has not been considered necessa
~ to enforce it till lately, and we presum.
that even now it would not have been deemed
necessary, did not our position with foreign
foe make it imperative to the safety of our ar
my in Mexico.

GEN. TAYLOR'S LETTER.

A somewhat mysterious letter, said to have
been written by Gen. Taylor to friend OF his
in New York, (supposed to be Gen. Gaines,)
has, within the last fortnight. made its appear
ance in the public prints. 1t first appeared in
the New York Express. We say it is mys-
ferrous affair, for we cannot see the object OF
it's publication, unless it was for the purpose
Of kicking up little dust, in order to feel the
pulse of the country as to Gen. Taylor's popu-
larity and chance Of success for the Presiden-
cy. But we are clearly of the opinion that
the Federalists, who in former days showed
themselves SO much opposed to the election Of
military chieftains to the Presidential chair
have missed the figure this time. 1t is true
the letter is calculated on first blush to make
things, think that there must be something
wrong But when the country is told thai
Gen Taylor has all along had everything he
asked for, and that he was authorized to make
acquisitions for whatever he might need, the
whole plan OF the Federalists must fall to the
ground We do not believe, even supposing
Gen. Taylor wrote the letter, that he ever in
tended it for publication, or had the least idea
that it would ever find its way into the public
prints. As the letter has been going the rounds
we suppose our readers will also be desirou.
to see it, and we therefore give it to them.
P. S.-Since we penned the foregoing re
marks, we see from the papers that Genera
Gaines has gone to Washington, and that hi
admits that the letter from Gen. Taylor wa
addressed to him, and that he had it published
If this be a fact, we are the more strongly per
suaded than ever that we are correct in GU
opinion about the object of its publication.
