That wicked wag, Punch, thus helps the nation
to smile at its losses, taking for his text what he
calls the I" Humors of the Navy
Last week Sir Charles Napier wrote letter to
the Times, exposing the disgraceful state Of Old
Englands Wooden Walls, which, by his account,
seem regulated by heads of their own material.
The gallant officer has made some extraordinary
disclosures From his letter it appears that " con-
versions to vast amount have occurred IN the
British Navy. This announcement may lead some
to suppose that q great many OF our ships have
gone over to Rome, whereas very few of them have
gone any where except to Jericho. The conversion
of bad vessels means turning men of war into con-
vict and coal -hulks azaretos, and receiving ships
and even into firewood, by breaking them up, and
thus fulfilling them the nautical imprecation,
So Shiver my timbcrs." We find that since the
Ill two-deckcrs and l25 frigates have, in some
mysterious manner, vanished, actually disappeared
altogether and after this shall not be surprised
to hear Jack Tars making nothing of the Flying
Dutchman, tell us of between two and three hun
dred sail of Flying Englishmen-the missing
ships-seen on the eve of hurricane. The docu-
ment in question further informs us that "Lord
Spencer's Admiralty built whole lot of fiat and
uscless -brigs, and called them after his lord
ships hounds not, perhaps, without reason, since
it would seem that they were about capable Of
chasing a fox as an enemy. But it gives another
instance of naval nomenclature even happier than
the last, that of twenty ships of % guns, built
since the war, being called "Donkcys,' named,
we must conclude, after their designers. The ma
jority of these proved donkeys that wouldn't go,
and were consequently converted"
So far Sir Charles Napiers revelations partake of
the character of Jokes. But now comes a statement
which cannot at all be classed in that category.
" The Admiralty costs f136, 1903, e., 800 of which
goes TO a First Lord, who knows nothing" In
fact, the First Lord of the Admiralty is lands
man, although, in the execution OF his Office
tainly always sea. The upshot of all this pretty
management, according to the Times, is, that ninety
millions of money have been spent TO purpose;
that what might have been now grand floating
