SECRETARY WHITNEY evidently
means that we shall have navy that
will command respect the world over.
His address yesterday shows that he
means business. He says that the ad-
vlsory board should be guided in de.
signing the new cruisers by what has
been accomplished in naval architecture
throughout the world 1t is evident
he thinks that expense incurred in
the proper direction is not to
act in the slightest manner as draw
back. There was one statement Of
the Secretary's which may not be well
come to the advisory board. The Sec
retary said that he had, without con-
sulting the board, already expended
considerable money In securing in

formation that will be useful in building
the new cruisers. The naval officer is
very touchy in such matters. But the
advisory board ought not to feel bad
lbout what has been done without con.
sulting them. The matter is one Of
too greatimportancc to he crept into by

THURSDAY, July 80, 1885.

MIR. WHITNEY very frankly con-
fesses that he il no expert in navy
building, but in this respect he is not
peculiar. 1t is not at all strange that
y country which has no navy should
be correspondingly destitute of naval
architects. We have plenty Of men
with experience as members and
makers-ovcr of old wooden ships, tim
clad monitors and the like, but few,
II any, who are practically familiar
with the art cf building modern war
vessels in the best modern style.
Therefore it is not at all to Secretary
whitney 3 discredit that he should feel
somewhat at Il loss as to the
plan OF the new cruisers which
Congress has directed him to con-
struct. lie has never been in
the trade before. But this Is all the
better perhaps. The responsibility is
certain to be entered upon with the
utmost possible caution, and under
guidance of the highestengineerlng and
mechanical skill. There will b. no
reckless favoritism displayed or loose
contracts given out, unless Mr.. Whit
ney is an entirely different business
man from what he has the reputation
of being, and the country may have q
reasonable assurance that the great
work Of naval reconstruction will be
well begun, which is the first and all
essential requisite to its being well done,

MIR. s. b. PACKARD, late consul of
the United States at Liverpool, while
at Chicago the other day told reporter
that he thought the President had made
great mistake in removing Republi-
can consuls and appointing Democrats
in their places. This is rather weak,
unbusinesslike remark for man OF
Packard's reputation to make. The
fact that he has been a moderately good
consul and made himself socially popu-
lar in England, does not show
by any means that when lie was
appointed, the material for
Liverpool consulates was exhausted.
There are doubtless other men in the
world quite as competent for the place
as he. We know there are good many
with more savory political records.
The trouble seems to be that while he
posed abroad as a great man Of the
highest respectability, assisted by the
circumstances OF his official position, he
came home simply to find himself the
same old Packard that he was when
leading bushwhacking partisan fight
in Louisiana.

The New York Times is not so much
OF Mugwump as to be mortally offend
ed by Mr.. Smalley's appointment to
the collectorship of Burlington. In
fact, it knows him to be an excellent
man for the position and politically de.
serving Of it. 1t also calls attention to
the hypocrisy OF certain fault-fnding
Republicans who "seem to have over.
looked the fact that for some years,
under more than one Republican Adj
ministration, Mr.. Smalley has held a
Federal Office of some Importance in
that State. That he is a partisan and q
politician no one will deny. His Demo-
cratic partisan and political activity was
matter OF public notOriety while he
held Office under the Republican party,
but it does not appear to have been so
offensive then as it is now." OF course
not. There was nothing to be made
then by abusing him or the President,
who appointed him.
