NAVY YARD.
The gunboat Pinola having received her anna
ment on board-two 2i's, 11-inch pivot gun,
and 36-pounder rihed gun forward-left the
yard yesterday afternoon at o'clock.
The Harriet Lane left Indian Head, bound
down, on Friday light, and, It is believed, passed
the Confederate batteries without being fred on.
Lieut.. Parker, who left the yard on a weeks
furlough, has returned after an absence Of only
four days-an example Of attention to duty worthy
Of imitation.

cause he is a candidate for Office under the
state government, with which the national
authorities have nothing directly to do, but
because he is a suspected traitor moving to-
ward position where he can make his trea-

candidate can run for office at this election,
except as perjurer.
