been made in their execution.
/ or the particulars concerning the operations
OF the ar Department you viii be informed
py tbe Secretary IN his report and the accom-
panylng documents.
The report of the Secretary of the Navy
embraces the operations and present condi-
ton Of this branch of the public service,
both afloat and ashore, the construction and
equipment of armed vessels, at home and
abroad, the manufacture Of ordnance and
ordnance stores, and the establishment of
workshops, and the development of our re-
sources OF coal aud iron. Some Legislation
seems essential Tor securing screws for yes
seis.
The difficulties now experienced on this
point are fully stated in the Secretary's re-
port, and invite your attention TO providing
d remedy.
The report of the Postmaster General dis
closes the embarrassment which resulted in
the postal service from the occupation by
the enemy of the Mississippi river and por
lions Of the territory of the different States.
The measures taken by the Department for
reIlevingsthese embarrassments as far as Prac-
tlcable are detailed in the report. it Is
subject of congratulatiou that during the ten
months that ended on the third of March
last the expenses IF the Department were
largely decreased, whilst It's revenue vas
aug HeAled, as compared with correspond
ing period ending on the thirteenth Of June,
eighteen hundred and sixty one, when the
postal system was conducted under the au-
thority delegated to the Uuited States.
Sufficient time has not vet elapsed 20 de-
termine whether the measures heretofore
devised by Congress will accomplish the end
of bringing the expenditures of the Depart.
meut within the limits of its own revenues
by the first of March next, as required BY
the Constitution.
| am happy to inform you that, in spite
both of Establishments and threats, used in
profusiOn by the agents of the Government OF
the United States, the Indian nations within
the Contederacy have remained firm in their
loyalty, and in the observance of treaty
engagements with this Government. Nor has
their fidelity been shaken by. the fact that
owing to the vacancies in some of the off,
ces of the agent and superintendent, delay
has occurred in the payments of the annui-
ties and allowances to which they are en-
titled. | now advise some provision au-
thOrizing payments to be made by other Off
GERS, in the absence of those especially
charged by law with this duty.
We have neyer-ceasing cause tosbe CRATE
full for the favor with which God has protected
our infant Oonfederacy and it becomes US
reverently to return our thanks and humbly
ask of his bOunteousness that wisdom which
IS needful for the performance of the high
trust with which we are charged.

THE UNITED STATES NAVY.

/ The n. Y. Times gives lengthy de-
scription of the U. S. Navy as at present
ahoat. and adds
From our resume it will be seen that
the entire strength Of our navy is close
upon three Hundred vessels nearly all OF
which are propelled by steam and that
among those are two iron clad frigates.
twenty three iron clad gunboats, and a
good stock of the highly effective naval
weapon, the ram. OF the latter the mum
Der can be increased indefinitely, and at
any moment, as they may be needed. All
we have 80 do is to fit beak on to any
staunch steam craft. plate its most vuI-
nerable parts. and it is ready for service in
sinking and destroying wooden walls, or
whatever else it can get drive at. la
this way the magnificent ocean steam
ship Vanderbilt was fitted up in a short
time in this port, and sent down TO
Hampton Roads for tilt with the Mer-
rimac and the river ram fleet of Col.
Elicit was turned out in the same way.
In case of contest with naval Power,
the ram, we believe, would be one Of our
most formidable weapons. Fifty Of them,
stout and swift, cruising along our coast.
and it would be hard work for an enemy
TO land troops any where on our shores.
If the foe sent mailed conveys with his .
the rams would simply dodge f.
The iron clads and sink the transports, If.
indeed. they could not quickly destroy
both
We believe that these three hundred
armed vessels are match for any naval
orce that any one, or any two, foreign
Powers could send to these shores and
hat the same time they could keep the
ebels in easy check. We have, or will
lave directly, a larger number Of iron
Lad vessels than England and France
and of far more available
ind. Upon these we look as the best
guardians of our liberty, our Union, and
ur independence, from any and all for
ign Intermediates.
The speed with which this splendid
laval force has been gotten up and put
n to service, is one of its most remark
bic characteristics. The greater part Of
has sprung into being within the last
ear. Twelve months since we had but |
lightly vessels of war, only one third of |
hitch were steamers. But thirty then
lree hundred now For of these, all !
ave some of the iron clads and steam l
.igates are actually afoat. Within the
ear we have constructed alone nearly
5 many vessels as the entire number of
Hips on the naval register of 1861. We
ad but 900 sailors and marines year
20 now there are over $4,000 in our I
avail service.
