The Failures In Our New Navy
The Navy Department has recently made
public the official reports of certain test trials
of the frigates Piscataqua apd Guerrero, two
sof class of nine vessels which are to make
part Of the American navy of the future.
Admiral Rowan reports that the Piscataqua,
."under favorable circumstances, with the wind
fresh and about abeam, under her courses,
topgallant sails and topmast studding sails,
logged twelve knots, the propeller making
thirty revolutions per minute under low
bteam." Twelve knots an hour under full sail
with fresh breeze and thirty revolu-
lions Of the propeller are not satisfac-
tory result from ship which has cost quite as
much money as large and more effective
frigate, like the Wabash, carrying twice as
many guns, quartering her crew with comfort
and carrying supplies for long cruise.
Under the same circumstances the frigate
Colorado or Wabash would run off as many
knots, and yet neither can make more than
seven knots under steam alone. The Piscata-
qua has not been tried under steam alone, but
the Guerrero, according to Admiral Davis,
out of Rio Janeiro, while she made thirteen
knots under steam and sail. The ships seem
to sail tolerably well, but their steaming quail
Lies are far from being what we have a
right to expect, considering their i'm
mense cost and the sacrifices that
were made in everything that relates to the
efficiency of the vessels and the comfort of the
crew, merely to secure speed. We have sacri-
feed almost everything for speed and we have
failed to obtain it. The ships are not equal to
the old fashioned auxiliary steam frigates of
the French or English navy. In fact, they fall
30 far short of the high standard which the de-
signers sought to attain in speed, battery
power and general effectiveness, that we are
Justified in placing them with the other failures
which the present administration has put afioat.
The light draught monitors, the Wampanoag and
now the Piscataqua classes of vessels, are pain
full evidence of the fact that we are on the
wrong tack in building our navy. We have
spent enough money to have created an efficient
navy, but the results of trials recently show
that we have lavished our money in vain.
How long is this lamentable policy to prevail ?
We fear so long as the navy is in the hands OF
The present constructors and engine designers.
They cannot or will not return to principles in
the construction of men of-war which expert
ence has shown to be sound, and the only cor
rection we have is to adopt the proposed board
of naval survey and take new departure,
with the lights of experience and common sense
to guide us in the future. We have had costly
wanderings from accepted rules and principles
long enough; let us now return again to safe
and familiar paths and all will be well with
the navy.

form the contractor that the streets were not
''decently passable;" but that was evidently
mere jocular remark, and was probably 80
regarded by the contractor, who informed the
Mayor that he had done as much as he could
to keep the streets clean. On all other points
the testimony of the Mayor is gratifyingly non
Icommfttal. He would not say whether the
present contractor is good one or not; ne
must refer to the Corporation Counsel as to
how to proceed to annul the present contract;
he believed some people were satisfied and
Others dissatisfied with the condition of Broad
way; something, in his opinion, ought to be
done, but what that something may be he pro-
Tossed himself unable to decide. This first
days labor ought to be enough to satisfy the
Senatorial Committee that the best thing they
can do Is to leave the people Of New York
alone. Any reform they may undertake to
make in the affairs Of the city will only lead
from bad to worse. The result Of the last
election proves that the people Of New York
love to be taxed and plundered on the grandest
scale, and they should be allowed to indulge
their inclnations without outside interference.
