We lay the following correspondence between
Captain AuLIcK and the Secretary of the Navy with
great pleasure before our readers. 1t is calculated
to put down idle rumor from an anonymous
source in newspaper, which Captain Aulck never
would have condescended to make the basis of Of
fetal action if it had not also been suggested that
this rumor had reached the Department 1t appears
from the Secretarys letter that there was no founda
ton Tor any such supposition. We do not mistake
Capt Aullck's character when we say that he de-
hes any one to produce the slightest evidence of the
truth OF such rumor. Let it be submitted to the
department and Capt. A. is prepared to meet it, let
assume whatever phase it may:
