Naval Afairs.

WASHINGTON, D. e., January S.-The con.
centration Of Was.yessels at Port Royal,
South Carolina, is in pursuance al O general
plan of the Secretary Of the Navy to MAKE
that port the headquarters Of the North At
lantic Station. Among its advantages are
healthful climate and harbor capacity for ma
val drills. The Secretary intends to have
the home squ.dron larger than those abroad,
because he believes in being prepared for
any emergency which may arise from pre-
sent diff :ulties ii Cuba; and while there is
no official announcement OF the condition Of
affairs between this. country and Spain, it is
believed in well. informed circles that the uu-
certain tenure which Spain has upon Cuba
may cause her to become involved with the
United States when she sees she cannot long.
er bold the island, and thus part with it as q
matter Of necessity.
Another reason given for ordering vessels
from northern rivers and harbors to Port
Royal is to free them from ice during win
ter, rs in case of emergency it would not do
to have them frozen up. The ShaWmut,
Dictator, Pawnee, and Hinta are now Mt Port
Royal, and the Congress and Juniata are
en- route. Other vessels will be ordered
to Port Royal from northern ports and
abroad. The Marion. now at Portsmouth,
and Vandalier, at Boston, will make Port
Royal the initial point for their West India
cr1lisn
