ex-senator EATON, in an interview
with the correspondent OF the New
York Herald, says the navigation laws
of tho United States mast be amended
before We can make anything out OF the
war likely TO arise between England
and Russia. He explains by showing
that whilst there IL an exception TO The
law against the registering Of foreign
vessels bought by the citizens OF this
country, In the case Of vessels carrying
1900 tons and over, yet such IL not the
class OF bottows our psople buy, and the
carrying trade would fallinto the honds
OF German and French ship-owners.
Mr.. Eaton Is also inclined TO the opln-
ion that In the event Of war an extra
session OF congress should bo called for
for the express purpose Of eifscting thl,
amendment.
