OUR NAVAL POWER.

The London Times says that. consider
ing The vigilance with .shich the Ameri-
cans have maintained the general effective
ness of their navy, it seem, singular that
they should hav. taken no particular pains
to augment it, although remarkably a,ten-
tive TO armaments and dock yards.
There never has been, at any period, a
desire on the part of our people to in
crease the navy to any extent beyond what
was necessary to protect the interest. Of
commerce in various parts of the world.
Wha, have the GAG ships of war achieved
for England? A heavy national debt,
the title of 'mistres> Of the seas and a
never-tailing de.ire for wars and glo,y.-
But we have 4 substitute worth more and
in fact more potent, than all the navy of
England and that is our private armed ma
rine. In the event of war, more than 500
swift sailing privateers will sconr the O.
cean in every direction. Every large
steamship, and every packet Of 1000 tons,
will have an armament. There will be no
navy in the world equal to it; but a. such
an armament can only grow cut of the
contingency of war, there is no necessity
to cxpcnd dollar in anticipation Of such
an issue.
We are probably the most remarkable
nation on earth for promptness and prepar-
alton for war after it exists. a valuable
corps Of 100000 men, armed, equipped
and disciplined, can be ready for the field
in thirty days after war i, declared, and
50 it may be said Of the ships of war. We
will state one fact illustrative of this posi-
ton. Daring the war with England, and
while stationed on the Barbary coast, we
were surprised one lay, while exploring
the ruin. of Carthage, to see sharp clip
per built schooner under full sail, with the
American flag floating to brisk breeze,
doubling Cape Bon and making directly
for the bay. We rode down TO the for
tre.s of Go.etta, ordered launch to be
made ready, and found ourselves alongside
the schooner just As she had cast anchor.
"Where are you from, sir?"
"From Boston," replied the Captain, a
smart, dashing looking young fellow.
ain what passage?"
"Twen'y-three days, SIR"
We began to have our mi<sivings.-
Twenty-three days from Boston? We sus-
pected she had been fitted out at Mar
seilles to cruise in the Mediterranean. II

Fl The Bolton Clairpoyanf.-The Man
chester Guardian contains long account
q the second interview between Mr. Had
duck friend Of Sir John Franklin, and
the Bolton Cla,rvoyant. She profes>ed to
have hadinterviews with Sir John Frank
lin, and Sir James Ross, described their
position in the ice, with sundry other
minutie. She sail she had some refresh
ments with Sir John franklin, who had
his provisions in thick tis boxes. He.had
also some hard meat in a big tub. Sir
John, she said, would be out OF the ice in
less than nine moI,hs, That it was ten
minutes past eleven by Sir Johns time;
and quarter past ten good while after,
BY Sir James Ross time. That she went
.sBood way further than Sir James Ross,
where il was very dark, and The stars went
round and did not twinkle, bat she was
cure it was quite ridiculous to attempt to
find road Tor ships over there. That she
found Sir John in house made of large
blocks Of ice, about 8 yards from the ship.
That Sir John had been great way over
the country, but had returned to his ships.
That Sir John Franklin had seen the ma
lives, but not Sir james Ross, and that
there were two ships on their way home
which would bring good news. The state
ments Of this girl have excited great inter-
est oil over the country. 1t has excited the
attention OF the Admiralty, and the matter
y srid to have been enquired after in high
quarters.

Yankee Sailcrs Erhibited.-A Yankee
vessel, called the Alert, being lately of
the Tartary cost, sent boats crew ashore
for wood; but as they did not return, the
captain sent second and third boat
neither Of which came back. While the
vessel was cruising about in the vicinity,
some two weeks later, the boats returned,
and the sailors reported that on going
ashofe they had been seized blythe natives
and exhibited through the country as GU
riosities, until their exhibitors were tired,
when they were set free: and returned.-
Ihey were treated with the utmost kind

FAT MEN.


From the Lectures Of Rev. Henry Giles,
now going through the press Of Mes
srs Ticknor, Reed & Fields, Boston.
MThere is something cordial in a FAT
nan. Every body likes him, and he likes
everybody. Your Ishmaelites are, in truth,
!, bare -boned race lank tribe are they
all skeleton and bile. Food does fat
nan good; i clings TO him, it frnctifies
upon him; he swell. nobly out, and fiji. a
generous space in life. He is living,
walking specimen Of gratitude to the bonn
Il Of the earth, and the fnllness thereof:
On incarnate testimony against the vanity
Of care; radiant manifestation Of the wis
dom Of good humor. A fat man, there.
fore, almost in virture Of being fat man.
i, per Sc, popular man; and commonly
he deserve. his popularity. In a crowded
vehicle the fattest man will ever be the
6rst to make room. Indeed, he .eems
half sorry for his size, lest It he in the
way Of others; hut others would not have
him less than lie is for his humanity is
usually commensurate with his bulk. A
fat man has abundance Of rich juices. The
hinges Of his system are well oiled; the
springs Of hi. being are noiseless; and so
he goes his way rejoicing in full content
ment and placidity. A fat man
feels his position solid in the world /; he
knows his being j. cogni<able; he knows
he has marked place in the universe. and
that he need take no extraordinary pains to
advertise mankind that he is among them;
he knows that he is in no danger Of being
overlooked. Your thin man is uncertain.
and therefore he is uneasy. He NAV van
i,h any hour into nothing; already he i.
almost ! shadow, and hence it is that he
uses such lahorious efforts to convince you
sfhis existence; to persuade you that he
Is actually something; tha. he is more than
anon-entity; tha, he j. positive substance
- we'll as his corpnlent fellow creature.
It really does take deal Of
wrong to make one hate tat man; aud ii
we are not always SO cordial to a thin man
a. we ought 10 be, Christian charity should
take into account the force OF prejudice
which we have to overcome against his
thinness. A fat man is the nearest to tha.
most perfect Of figures, mathematical
sphere, thin man to that most limited Of
conceivable dimensions, a simple line. A
fat man, is being of harmonious volume,
and holds relationto the material universe
in every directions; a thin man has nothing
but length; thin man, in fact, is but the
continuation Of point. VI Western Lit.
