EFFECTIVENESS or THE BLOCKADE.
We shall probably hear very little more of
the inefecuveness Of the blockade. The en-
ergetic efforts OF the acting Secretary of the
Navy have been crowned with success There
are now one hundred and twenty-one yes
sells either actively employed in the block
ade, or else being prepared for that service.
This includes the gun-boats, which, being
properly armed, are the most effective YES
selH for the service. The gun-boat Pjaola
now icing built at Baltimore is nearly com
pleted. 1t is vessel ef great siren 9Th, and
will have a powerful armament. it is un-
derstood that at an early day some extensive
naval movements will be made, which will
put5a very different complexion Oh affairs in
Southern waters.

nation as may interfere with the crushing
of the Rebellion. The Union sheets, pf course.
