WASHINGTON, August 20.--As several re-
spectacle journals have denied the truth of
the statementof the Washington Reporter of
the Associated Press, that the Vinccnnes and
the Martin are included in the African Squad
ron, as arranged by the Secretary Of the
Navy, it may beproper to say that flag Officer
Inlan, who succeeds Captain Conover, was
lately SO informed by the Navy Department,
where the names of these two vessels appear
in the same list with the others, which have
recently been designated fer that service.
The Marion has been ont twenty-one months,
and the Vincennes sixteen, not twenty three
and twenty-one, as some Of the newspapers
have erroneously stated. H
The Secretary of the Navy has Just issued
the following general order: No order will be
given to the medical officers of the navy to
render professional aid to any person who ia
not attached to the naval service, or on board
II ship-of-war. The Department will confde
in their humanity TO respond to any appeal
for their assistance, whenever the requisite
aid can not be obtained elsewhere. An ex-
ception may be made in favor of vessels in
| distress, when, if necessary to secure the re.
| quiste medical aid, theauthority of the Com.
nander may be interposed. ..
Secretary Thompson has returned to Wash.
Dgton. Allthe members of the Cabinet are
now here, with the exception of Secretary

Since the appearance of the Aurora Boreals,

took BREAKFAST, and paid his bill. There all

DRAMATIC DRoLLERIgs.-A new tragedy has

her conslderate friends conceal from her for
six years. The young lady was one of those

man is unseated in the British Parliament
for bribery, if the case be SO plain against
him that the defense be pronounced "irvo-

costs OF investigation on both sides. They
are sometimes very heavy. For q man to
buy seat in Parliament for $lOO, 900, and
then to pay $4,000 for proving that he is
not entitled to it, is poor encouragement to
