vessels at the Navy Yard has proved more
difficult than was anticipated; indeed, ap.
prehensions exist that the raising of the
Plymouth cannot be accomplished. 1t is
some consolation to state, however, that
the Germantown, sloop-of-war, and the
Dolphin, brig, will be gotten up. With
respect to the fine steamer Merrimac, al
ready docked, the decision is to cover with
iron and convert her into floating battery.
The experiences at Sumter, and the further
fact that Fortress Monroe must be in oul
possession by September, explains this de-
termination.
President Davis could, By no single fea'
ture of policy, more efectually promote
Confederate interests than by issuing or
ders for the Commandant at the Navy Yard
here to furnish cannon for privateers. A
number of ships would at once enter the
service if their owners could secure prop.
erarmament
Several steamers of light draught, but
substantial, will leave here this week for
the coast of North Carolina. They have
been strengthened, armed, manned, and
will render good service.
