NAVY YARD


The steamer Bat, "a captured blockade run
ner,) now in service, arrived at the Navy
Yard yesterday afternoon from Hampton
koads, for a foremost, to replace one lost ON
her passage from Boston, where she had been
condemned and fitted out. She is under the
command Of Lieut.. Hawiey, who had receauy
had charge OF the receiving ship Ohio, IN Bos-
ton harbor.
The Saco, fourth class vessel, also arrived
at the Yard yesterday from Hampton Roads,
and will probably remain some time, as we
hear that it Is in contemp lation to subject her
machinery to a number of experiments, and
also to repair her boilers, some OF which are
out OF order. The Saco was built at the
Charlestown (Mass Yard, and launched in
August, 1869. Her engines were built bY the
Corliss Steam Engine Co., ct Providence, r. L.,
and are horizontal, direct-acting engines. OF rs
inch cylinder. She has fourteen cylindrical
boilers, W hich it was claimed could make their
OWE fresh water; but thus far, we hear, they
have not worked as well as could be desired,
and in consequence the vessel has seen but
little sea service, and the state Of the boilers
rendered it necessary that she should be sent
here. The following Is a list Of the officers =
Lieut.. Commando J. NV alker, commanding;
Acting Master w. F. Hunt Executive Officer;
LIST Assistant Surgeon, A. Matherson; Acting
EpsiRns, o. T. Wixon, w. II. Potter, A. II.
Ostrander, T. j. Rollins; A. A. Paymaster, 9.
