MIR. Fillmore. after having been razeed to
daily seven by nine, has been sold out, and
elongated into weekly paper. Cause the sus-
pension of supplies of government pap The
old Intehigeneer is the only daily paper in
Washington that has outlived its supplies of
the spells. The business of government Or
gan is precarious vocation. We trust that
General Pierce will persist in doing without
one. To the administration an organ is often a
heavy drawback, and it seldom yields o divi-
dend to any of the parties concerned. except to
the organ grinders IN pocketing the spoils. 1t
is at best but a shallow device for deep haul
upon the treasury. The Republic made some
thing; bat what advantage was it either to
General Taylor or Mr.. Fillmore? None at all.
And what good is the Union doing for General
Pierce, as volunteer experiment? None. The
country has had enough Of Washington organs.
supported by the public treasury. Let US have
no more.

Dome. WONDERS FOR THE NAVY - GOOD
NEws.-The Washington correspondent OF the
Richmond (Va.) Enquirer gives us the follow
mendous efforts of Mr. Secretary Dobbin to
build up steam navy which may defy the
world -
Secretary Dobbn is doing wonders to build up q
steam navy. He has advertised for proposals TO re-
pair the United States steamship San JacintO. This
is Indication that little more efc ency will
be Infused into our different navy yards When the
wOIknen IL the yards perceive that others are pre-
tered to them, they will soon understand that, Tor
the future there must be more failures IN The CON
strOction Of our N ,rins. Secretary Dobbin de.
serves the thanks of The country for this effort to
render DObe ship Ut rome me to the navy. We
believe this effort # his will be successful. and then
will follow Otoer important improvements that will
raise the sta1 daId III the Macy the affections OF the
people Of the States. Mr. D0bbn must progress"
III the good work, until the ships Of the navy, with
the y sonnet Of the service III condition to back
up Commander Ingruham, il the powers Of all Eu.
rope combined against him ia his effort to protect
the unfortunate Knszta from the grant grasp Of the
Austrian. We want ready aud efficient navy; and.
think we have in Mr. DObbin Secretary that will
bend all his energies to build up pow srfnl navy,
capable and ready to float the star and stripes"
Triumphant IN every sea.
Well the repairing Of the San Jacinto is
something, and Secretary Dobbin deserves the
thanks OF the country for it, because something
is better than nothing. And we must remem-
Der that he can't do much without the supplies
from Congress But we shall wait for his first
annual report with considerable interest. Ac-
cording to the recommendations and speciica-
tions Of reform therein contained, we shall be
enabled to form better judgment Of Mr.. Secre-
tary Dobbin than is afforded by the repairing
Of the San Jacinto. Wedo not expect any thing
very extraordinary from Mr.. Dobbin. in build
ing up steam navy; but shall be disappointed
if he turns out an unmitigated old fogy, like
many Of his predecessors. For the present we
are truly thankful for the wonders he is doing
in advertising proposals to repair the steamship
San Jacinto Mr.. Dobbn is awake
