DOING WONDERS FOR THE NAvY-GOoD
NEws.-The Washington correspondent of
the Richmond (Va.) Enquirer gives us the
following cheering information concerning
the tremendous efforts of Mr.. Secretary Dob.
bin to build up steam navy which may defy
the world -
Secretary Dobbin is doing wonders to build
up steam navy. He has advertised for pro-
posals to repair the United States steamship
San Jacinto. This is a sure indication that Il
little more efficiency will be infused into our
different navy yards. When the workmen in
the yards perceive that others are preferred
to them, they will soon understand that, for
the future, there must be no more failures in
the construction of our war marine. Sccre-
tary Dobbin deserves the thanks of the coun.
try for this effort to rende. noble ship OF
some use to the navy. We believe this effort
Of his will be successful, and then will follow
other important improvements that will raise
the standard OF the navy in the affections OF
the people of the States. Mr.. Dobbin must
'progrcss" in the good work, until the ships
of the navy, with the personnel Of the service
are in Il condition to back up Commander
lngraham. if the powers of all Europe are
combined against him in his effort to protect
the unfortunate Koszta from the tyrant grasp
of the Austrian. We want Il ready and e-
cicnt navy: and, think, we have in Mr.. Dob
bin Secretary that will bend all his energies
to build up a powerful navy, one capable and
ready TO float the ''stars and stripes triun-
phant in every sea.
