and the lustre of the old flag has been

every naval officer from Admiral 10 Mate,
who fails Gas in the case OF British Ad-

have our blockade effective, or preserve
our ancient naval renown, We demand,

of the war, and the retention OF all back

is no lack of the true metal, or requisite
talent, in oar army; all that is required,
is that, they be placed in responsible po'
sitions, to the absolute exclusion of fools
aud traitors. LOt no considerations Of
influential friends, Iormer position, or
friendship delay the blow, a decorated
