THE PENSACOLA MAYNARD.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Senator Jones
of Florida, and Senator Morgan and
preventative Forney, of Alabama,
called upon the Secretary of the Navy
Saturday for The purpose of advocating
the re-establisbment of the Pensacola
Navy-yard and to invite the Secretary
TO visit it, and also to visit Mobile and
the iron district of Alabama. The Sec.
retary expressed much interest in the
subject, and said that he expected to
visit Pensacola after his trip to Louis
vile in September next. He stated that
he found that he could give his dIrec-
tions concerning navy.yard much mcre
intelltgently after a personal examina-
tion, and he should, there fore, make it a
point to visit all OF the navy-yards OF the
country. A general conversation en-
sued in respect to the general subject of
the condition and wants of the navy, in
which the Secretary gave his views at
some length. The delegation urges that
the establishment of this navy-yard
is essential to the. protection OF the
commerce Of the Gulf in the
event of a. foreign war, and that
Pensacola possessee special advantages
for ship building. They are confident
that its claims will receive fair recogn =
tion by the Department.
