THE NEW NAvY.-The Advisory
Board seem to have been behind the
age when they made their report pro-
posing to build naval ships Of wood
Of speed Of ten knots an hour.
There has not been fine steamer
built by any of the great English
ocean lines that has not second of
greater speed. Most Of them can
make from fourteen to seventeen
miles an hour. And all of them are
built for service in time of war as
cruisers. An English Naval officer
when asked his opinion Of the PROPOSE
tions Of the Advisory Board IepIied !:
''lt may be inferred from tbeir recon.
mendations that the officers compos-
ing that Board are not acquainted
with the facts Of modern naval archi-
lecture and warfare. Thoir report
reads as if they had examined the
facts of naval construction for the
past generations. The report ignores
the whole development Of naval war
fare since the close of your own civil
war. See how inadequate the pro.
posed new navy is. My Government
has designated forty of the fastest
steamships of our mercantile marine
to act as swift cruisers in the event of
war. These ships, as you know, have
u speed of from sixteen to eighteen
knots. They are the fastest and best
ships afoat, comprising the crack
ships Of the Atlantic and the Oriental
commercial fleets of Great Britain.
These ships we're built with a view to
the possible contingency of war, and
50 constructed that they can be, as
you will see, instantly converted into
very serviceable cruisers. Their decks
are prepared for the reception OF
ornaments, and right at hand, SO as
to be exceedingly valuable. Thi,
armament is held already constructed
and convenient of access. Each gun.
carriage is expressly made for the
designated place on each vessel.
and every bolt and every screw
is ready, SO that upon orders from the
Admiralty the whole could be shipped
and put into position and the vessel
made ready for action at forty-eiph ht
hours notice"
Itls matter of great importance
that our new navy shall be superior
to the English steamers. But such al
are recommended would not be equal
to the task of overtaking and captur.
ing one of the great passenger ships
that ply between New York aud Lon
don ; because they are all faster yes-
sells and No doubt would be armed
before war would be declared.

MORE Chinese came to this country
last year thas Scotchmen, AustrIans, or
Frenc1men, and as nearly all of them
settled on the Pacific coast, we may sx-
pect before long to hear Of another anti.
Chinese agitation out there. The influx
OF Cinnamon has indeed incr, ased at an
enormous rate per cent. within a twelve
month, though it is still very far from
being formldable-amounting to no more
than 10000 out of total Immigration
of 1866.

A WONDERFUL DKvRLoPMRMT-
THE EsFRcT OF STRIKIMa OIL
Last July the village of Riohburg, New
York, contained . population Of less
than Two huAdred. ItwAs psoplsd by
a community Of Seventh Day BArtists.
In July man named Boyle struck
250-barrel oil we'll in the village. Land
went from sic an acre to $500. There
are now $50 oil wells in the neighbor-
hood, producing 10000 barrels Of oil
a day. Riohburg has 5000 inhabi-
tants. 1t has had three murders
within six weeks There are several
hotels, an opera house, banks (faro
aud nationaD, Chinese laundries,
bagnios, and rum holss. Four rail.
roads have been built within three
months. The Seventh Day Baptists
have all sold their lands and become
rich. Six oil wells are complstsd
daily, yielding from 10 to $50 barrels
each, on the start. Every door yard
has its derrick, and one man has taken
his front porch for boiler house. A
short distance away village OF 8, COO
inhabitants, known as Bolivar, has
sprung up from collection OF farms.
Four railroads centre at that place.
The oil production Of this district at
the present rate Of increase will be
IL, 900 barrels day by February. No
district in the history of the trade was
ever developed so rapidly, notwith-
standing that Grade oil 10 only 90
cents q barrel, and that the Bradford
Geld is alone producing 20, 900 barrels
of oil more than there IL any demand
for. There are now stored in the
tanks OF the United Pipe Lines in the
oil region over $4,000, 900 barrels Of
oil, waiting for . market. AbsHt
65, COO barrels Of oil are run through
the pipe lines every day. There ia

field. Not less than S., 900, 900 have
found place for investment in this
new territory since it was opened. Al
the present very low price Of oil, pro-
ducers get twenty per cent. returns for
their money. The United Lines take
all the oil that is offered to them. II
the northern field becomes exhausted
rapidly, that company will control
about all the crude oil there is in the
country. With their 10, 200 miles Of
pipe line they hold the key to oil
transportation. They now pipe oil
from the oil regions to Cleveland, BuE
falo and to the seaboard. This latter
line extends from Olean to Rutherford
N. J., with double line completed tc
Port Jervis.

A VAST TRouBLE.-The counting
OF the gold, silver and notes at the
Sub Treasury, which was begun Janu-
ary 1, in connection with the transfer
from General Hillhouse to Mr.. Acton
was completed yesterday and General
Hillhouse's figures were found to be
correct to a cent. The total amount
counted was ss782s, 600, embracing
tue following items Gold coin, $5S,-
SIS, 600 silver coin, S26, 63s 600; sll,
yer certificates, $4,000, 600; legal
tender notes, So, 93S, 900; national
bank notes, 1900; minor coin,
S23,S73, and exchanges, $1,000. In
cluded in the gold com was So, 500. 600
in gold bars transferred from the
Assay Office some months ago bseaase
of lack of room in The Assay Office
vault. Mr.. Acton has given his re-
ceipts and now stands responsible for
everything in the Treasury. General
Hlllhouse will receive his final acquit
tance in few days.
This counting of so many millions
every time there is a change of the
Secretary of the Treasury is vast
deal of trouble that ought to be rid
of. The government has, or ought
to have good enough credit without
keeping SO large an amount of specie
or hand. It did not Go this be-
fore 1860, and need not do it now.
The gold aud silver should be used 20
pay Of hundred or two millions of
d. liars of bonds, aud thus the inter-
est be saved. 1t is never too lats to
correct mistake, and it was mis-
take in Dir. Sherman when he bought
two hundred millions of gold in
1878 ., and gave two hundred millions
Of bonds for it. That gold has been
a trouble to the government to keep
ever since, and it may be stolen some
time notwithstanding all the care
used to keep it secure. When one
''crank" will dare to take the risk of
numbering the President for an Office,
it is reasonable to suppose another
might take notion to rob the sub
treasury of its valuable deposits.
