JUDGE MoREAU RosE.-The Dardanelle Post in noticing the appointment of Judge ROSE as Receiver of Public Moneys at ClarkaviIe pays him high and just compliment. It speaks of him as < eminently distinguished by his talent, worth and services" and as enjoying " the confidence and affection of the citizens ofJohn- son and the surrounding counties" No one is better able to pass upon the Judges qualifca- tions than COleburn of the Post. He h;.s known him long and intimately.

Memphis Navy Yard.

We learn from the Appeal that telegraphic despatch has been received at Memphis by Capt. Platt, informing him that the sale at the Navy Yard has been suspended until further action by Congress. The whole south and southwest have taken deep interest in the progress of this great public work and learned with pro- found astonishment and indignation the deter mination of the last Congress to abandon it. Its re-estabEshment was seriously thought of at the last session and was only defeactd by a committee on conference. A large majority of the Senate were in favor of it. The follow ing letter to the Secretary of the Navy, in re- lation to the matter, appeared some months since in the Appeal. It, doubtless, had its effect in bringing about the present suspension from sale, of the government property belonging to the Navy Yard:
 St. Bout "Ben Franklin" }
 March l6th, 1855 { ! Hon. J. C. DoBB1Ns-My Dear Slr: feel very strong interest in the preservation and continuance of the Memphis Navy Yard, as you are aware from our interviews on the sub- ject.
 That its re-establishment was defeated by the committee which was appointed ON coNFE- RENcE on the part of the House. and by that only every one must admit. IT CANNOT BE DENIED.
 The city of Memphis may continue it's ten. der and state of facts will then exist throw ing upon you the responsibility of refusing to leave to Congress the settlement of the question, by destroying the Yard at once or, of so far re- specting the almost unanimous action of the Senate respecting it, etc., etc., etc., to take no step whilst the tender stands, which shall do injury to the public service, should next Con- gross choose to adopt and re-establishit.
 The latter course Respectfully bat earnestly urge. Keep all things dn statu quo, until the next Congress. This one did the act in pet, and in three months, more than half of the bo- dy changed it's mind and favored its re-esta- bshment The question belongs to new and unprejudiced Congress.
