THE NAyIEs OF FRANCE AND ENGLAND.-The Wash
ington Union contains u carefully prepared list of
the Navy of France from which We learn that ii is
composed Of 3lT sailing vessels, carrying 9,l76
guns and 30 steamers, carrying 4,9Ol guns-ma-
king q total of 537 vessels and li077 guns Accord
ing to the navy list of Great Britain for 1856 the
effective force of that country WAS 269 sailing yes
sells carrying 1882 guns, and 25S steamers, with
4,5lS guns-making total of 52 vessels and 49,
$50 guns 1t will thus be that the navy Of
France exceeds that of Great Britain by 10 vessels
and lg7 guns. This Is very small difference, and
the nayies of the two most powerful maritime
mowers in Europe may therefore be set down about
equal When compared with the naval force of our
own country the latter falls almost into insignf-
canoe, but az there appears to be fresh interest
springng up in favor ofthis branch OF our national
defence we have yet strong hopes of seeing ii
placed OH proper footing before many years
