Reconn aissance OF the Seas around China
and Japan.

and Japan.
In reply to a resolution of the Senate of the
United States, the SECRETARY OF THE NAVY
letter, setting forth his opinion as to the expe-
diency Of a reconnaissance of the routes of
navigation in the Northern and China and ia
pan seas, and as TO the probable expense Of such
a reconnaissance.
The Secretary cites communication from
tory Of the Sd Of December last on this subjects
and says that, with such facts before the Depart
ment, he does not hesitate in expressing an
opinion favorable to the measure suggested in
the resolution, nor in recommending such re-
connassance and survey as will establish ac-
curately the positions Of the prominent capes,
bays, headlands, and harbors.
AS to the expense, he says that the Depart
ment has not ut its command the vessels me-
Icessary for the contemplated undertaking, I'M
less by reducing the number Of vessels in
squadrons already on foreign service; but he
thinks that the requisite vessels can be built at
ournavy yards or purchased for a sum not ex-
ceeding $l25 900, and that no additional ap.
preparation, beyond that sum, need be made
The wear and tear of the vessels, pay Of the
officers and crews, stores, provisions, iDstru-
ments, &C., he says, can be provided for out of
current appropriations.
Accompanying the Secretary's letter is a
report from the Chief Of the Bureau of Ord
nance and photography, and papers prepared
by Commander RINGGoLD and Lieutenants
MAURy and PAGE, throwing additional light
upon the subject.

WAsHISoroN, April Z, 1852.
To the Editor Of the Republic:
SIR: An article is going the rounds of the public
prints said to be copied from the HALIFAX papers,
headed General Scott and the late Sir John Har-
voy." This is a small affair and scarcely worth
notcingi bot the facts incorrectly stated, and
not al all similar to thosc which did occur between
Sir John Harvey and an officer Of our army at the
battle Of Stoney Creek. General Scott was not
present at that battle. believe interview took
place between him and Sir John Harvey near Fort
George, which led TO the intimacy subsequently
existing between them.

fire broke out In the drug store of Dr. Bsbbit who has
been appointed under the new law to dispense liquors
according 10 the lop In this place and In shsrt time the
whole building, with It's contents, was burned to the
ground
About 5000 worth of quors had been recently stored,
which belong to the town. Dr. Rabbit fully insured

WIFE, was sleeping directly over the soreroom, where
