Report o. the Sserttary 81 tie Navy.
we abridgs the following from an abb
ssract pade BY The HNsw York Times"
The annual report from the Navy De-
parsment IL document Of moderate
length, considerable ability and general
interest.
Six squadrons are actively employed
on the ocean. or these, the Home squad
ron, yet under the command Of Conmo-
dors Parker, consists ef Eve vessels, and
has cruised in the West Indies and along
the coat Or the Caribbean Sea and the
Gulf Of Mexico. The Mediterranean
squadron, Com. Morgan commanding,
consists Of four vessels; the African
squadron, Com. Lavaetts, comprising Eve
brigs and sleeps; the squadron on the
coast o. Brazil, Com. Mclkeever, includ-
e. the flagship Coneress and three others;
the Pacific squadron, Com. Nice auley, in
clndes eleven sea-worthy vessels and
store-ships; and the squadron for the East
Indies, Con. Aulick, commanding. COM
prehends the steam-frgate Susqnehannah
and three sloops-of-wsr. Il
The total number Of vessels employed
in squadron service, 10 therefore, 33. The
report announces, with satisfaction, that,
in al quarters Of the Globe, tie reception
Of American cruisers has been respectful
and cordial.
The number Of ofiicers employed dur
&g the year In the coast survey, was so.
pc Secretary rsaews his recommends
lion that the supervision or this work be
transferred to the Navy Department.
The necessity Of I revision Of the laws
relatihgte the Navy, and the adoption Of
u suitable and efficient system Of Naval
policy, il recommended to the attention of
Congress-. Mr.. Graham does not concur
in the policy sometimes advocated, that
we should apportion our Naval force to
that Of the principal nations Of Europe
with which We may possibly come in col
lision; yet he recommends that all the aids
afforded BY science and experience be APP
piled to the Improvement OF our Naval es-
tablishmsnt. Our obvious policy is 10
continue to build ships, not Only to sup
ply losses, but to keep pace with the inn
provement of the age.
The report argues that the abolilien Of
Naval Flogging has been attended with
Improbable consequences; that justice is
delayed By. confinement; that honest men
ara made the servants of the unworthy,
while the latter are in confinement; and
that the ships effective force il weaken
ed. The Secretary considers that the
consequences Of the change have thus far
been detrimental to the service, and COM
meade the subject to the consideration Of
Congress.
The scientific researches which have
been presented during the year, under
the direction Of the Navy Department, are
producing valuable results. The Naval
Observatory, and Typographical Office
have been in active and vigorous opera
lion; The Wind and Current Charts plan
ned by Lieut.. Maury, are being extend
ed to tho Pacific and Indian Oceans; the
Astronomical expedition to Chill, under
the direction Of Lieut.. Gilliss, has been
actively conducted, and the first pulbica-
ton of tho National Almanac under the
superintendent Of Lieut.. Davis, may be
expected in the course Of the next fiscal
year.
