Hts Inadequacy-The Injury to our
COmmeIce-Our Citizens Abroad
Unprotected
NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-Report of the Sec
rotary of the Navy is published. Although
brief, it is terse, and embracing numerous
matters Of Importance which are sue
cinctly stated. 1t shows that moth With
standing the enormous demends upon the
Department, the expenditures have been
Kept down and absolutely over 81, 900, 600
less for the )ear ending Dec. /, 1870,
than for the year ending Dec. /, 1869.
1t demonstrates that while the Depart
ment is responding to the demands of the
country for economy in expenditures, it
is at the serious cost of our commerce in
foreign seas and detriment of the rights
OF our citizens in foreign lands. With
one hundred and forty million square
miles of nsvigable waters and q coast
line of our own of 1000 miles, the Sec
rotary says 40 ships are terly INSULT
Gent.
de forcibly alludes to the tact that the
only means of enforcin. either respect
Tor the government or protection for its
cltlzens away from home are the guns of
the navy, and that scarce a mail comes
but brings intelligence of some call upon
naval vessels in distant seas for protec-
ton, and at the present time he saws
everywhere on the shores of civilized
Europe the security of American rights
and cltIzeship demands the presence of
our flag, while in all the civilized East
our commerce is constantly startled by
outbreaks which defy the power of friend.
ly governments
The Secretary slluding to important
American interests On the Asiatic stations
Gays, that The constant necessity for sn
increase of our force there, which we are
unable to afford, Expresses the Depart
mem; that the feeling of uncertainty and
alarm which all this time pervades all the
European settlements in China, extendsto
our own commercial and religious repre-
seRtatives, and the bulk of our Asiatic
feet is now cruising in that portion of the
station for the protection of any interests
that may be threatened, and dispropor-
tiODate as may be that armed force, it
makes the strongest appeal to Asiatic res
pect.
The Secretary alludes to the occupation
of our men-Ofwar during the past year,
the part it has taken in the interoceanic
canal survey, etc. He shows how made
quate our squadrons are to perform the
duties expected of them, and compares
their weakness in point of iron clads and
the number of vessels with the English
and French squadrons.

You'd the mere fixing of the tenure of

Senate, to make their appointing COM
plete. l would have it govern not the
tenure, but the manner of making all ap-
pointments. There is no duty which 80
much embarrasses the Executive and the
heads of Departments as that of appoint
ment. Nor is there any such arduous
and thankless labor imposed on Senators
and Representatives as that of finding
places for constituents. The present
system does not secure the best men, and
not often fit men, for public place. The
elevation and publication of the civil ser
vice of the Government will be hailed
with approval by The whole people of the

The condition of the archives at the

ton of Congress. The building now
rented by that department is frail struc-

Executive Mansion, and from the other
departments. 1t is ill-adapted to the pur-
pose for which it is used. 1t has not
capacity to accommodate the archives,
aud is not fire proof. Its remote situation,
its slender construction and the absence of

leaves but little hope of safety either for
the building Oh its contents in case of the
accident of fire. Its destruction would
involve the loss of the rolls containing the
original acts and resolutions of Congress,
aud the historic records of the Revolution
and of the Confederation; of the whole
series of diplomatic and consular archives
since the adoption Of the Constitution,
and of the many other valuable records
and papers left with that department when
