cal year, the public works of that description
have been suspended, and, in pursuance of the
policy adopted by Congress at its last session,
no estimates are presented for their continu-
ance during the next fiscal year.
The Secretary caused an examination to be
made of the Philadelphia Naval Hospital, and
reports that it is in admirable condition.
The agencies for the preservation of liye-oak
timber belonging to the United States have
been successfully conducted, and the system
Row established and in operation through the
present corps of agents will, it is believed, eff
ectually secure that important object.
The Superintendent of the Naval Observe
tory recommends that larger force be EN-
ployed in that institution. As the appropria-
ton for the Nautical Almanac failed to receive
the sanction of Congress at the last session, it
becomes necessary that a small appropriation
for that object be made early at the approach
ing session, or the work will be arrested for
want OF funds to carry it on.
The Secretary has caused thorough exami-
nation to be made of the several Atlantic navy
yards, and has issued instructions to al the
navy yards, establishing uniform system of
organization and management, adapted TO In
sure economy, efficiency, and responsibility.
For the support of the navy and marine
corps, and ali other objects under the control
of the Navy Department for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1853, the estimates were
