We find, in the Richmond Examine,
Of the Goth, some extracts Of the re-
port recently printed and published by
the Richmond Congress, Of the evi-
denee taken before the Joint special
committee to investigate the affairs Of
the rebel navy department That de
partment appears to have labored from
the outset under great difficulties, prin-
cipaly for the want Of credit, and to
have opposed for long time the con
struetion of rams and gunboats 1t was
not until February, 1862, that the de
partment seriously undertook, at New
Orleans, the work of building war yes
sells, and then, between the want Of
credit and Buffers untimely visit to
that city, the experiment resulted in
ignOminioUs failure. The following, IN
