The naval department is one OF the
principal jobbery shops of the Republican
dynasty The mere fact that the annual
appropriations since 1857 have aggregated
over three hundred and twenty-five mil
lion dollars, and that we have no navy,
so to speak, are sufficient to prove the
corruption of the Radical administration
of the affairs of the nation. No other
evidence is required. The palmy days Of
plumber through the machinery of the
naval establishment were during the eight
years reign of Secor Robson, when sue
cessive Republican Congresses authorized
appropriations TO the amount of over
twenty-five millions of dollars annually.
Then the stealage was enormous, and now
it is only less, for the same abuses con-
tinue. Here is a scrap of evidence fur
nished by Mr.. John +. Dezendorf, Re
publican member of the last Congress, in
An open letter to the President:
The abuses in the navy yard at Norfolk are
fragrant and outrageous violations of.the law and
regulations governing that department, and &C
count in some measure for the excessive cost OF
the work done on The Pinta recently repaired at
that yard. | call your special attention to this
vessel, tug of BOG tons She has had expended
on her more than 100000 for repairs. | am
satisfied and can prove that during the Congress
sonal campaign last fall men were borne upon
the rolls and paid for work weeks at a time who
did not put foot inside the navy yard or do an
hours work there"
And, as We learn from the New York
.>,0,, the vessel on which all this money
was expended has been already CON
demned as trustworthy.
Any one of six or seven powers could
blockade the ports of the United States
and lombard most of the coast cities, for
We have no war ships to meet their iron
clad fleets. Our helplessness on the sea
is an invitation to insult and aggression
which We cannot resent, for fear of con-
sequences, for our coast country lies at
the mercy of almost any one of the first
or second rate powers Of Europe Even

The State has been startled by the an
nouncemcnt of the disastrous prevalence
of smallpox in the city of Jacksonville
an announcement made by newspaper
of that city with the spectacular adluncts
of display type and emotional headlines.
That the disease exists there alarmingly
is fact, and that its continued existence
there depends upon the efforts of citizens
and the city government to control and
eradicate il is another fact. 1t is also
probable, if not fact, that citizens and
authorities might not be stirred up to
extreme effort if the newspapers did not
show the danger in its strongest light,
and force upon them the responsibilities
devolvlng-made so plain that a preteXt
