Report ou the Movements OF the Vessel
Up to August Sth.
WASHINGTON, October Ist.-Lieutenant
Commander Charles II. Stockton, COM
manding the Thetis, in letter to the Sec
retary of the Navy, dated at Point Barrow,
August Sth, reports the movements of that
vessel since the Sth of July. After leaving
st. Michaels, on the 10Th of July, the vessel
visited Port Clarence and found twelve of
the whaling feet and two other vessels at
anchor, took on board coal, oyerhauled
the boiler and examined the shoal ground
outside and in the vicinity of Port CIar-
ence.
The ship America with coal and stores
for the fleet not having arrived, proceeded
on the 18th as far as ST. Lawrence Island to
search forh her, thence to Cape Prince of
Wales. Learned since arrival at Point Bar
row that the America reached Port Clar-
ance on the 10Th of July. Made HYDRO
graphic examinations in the vicinity of
Prince of Wales anchorage. Leaving that
place passed through Behring's Strait and
reached Cape Blossom, KotZebue Sound
on 22d July; left on the 9th and anchored
off Cape Sabine; on the 9th examined the
mouth of Pitmsgea river. Encountered
but little ice between that place and Point
Barrow, where We arrived July 10Th and
Iound IN port the revenue steamer Bear
and few whalers.
Captain Healy had selected the site for
the refuge station and all the facilities of
the Thetis were placed at his command
and under his energetic supervision the
stores and materials were landed, the house
then being well under way. The boats and
men OF the whaling feet also rendered con-
siderable assistance. The house is practi-
cally finished and inhabitable. AS the
Bear would remain there, the Thetis would
leave on the Sth for a short cruise to
eastward, where the whaling fleet is act
lively cruising, SO as TO render any assist
ance necessary, and then return to Point
Barrow.
The whaling fleet in the vicinity mum.
bers in all thirty-seven vessels, ten being
steam vessels. Fifteen are cruising to the
eastward of Point Barrow; the remainder
are at anchor off the Point or within its
neighborhood. The weather is unexcep.
tionally good. From information obtained
the season is almost if not quite as open as
last year. As the refuge station NAV now
be considered as established, the Thetis
would devote her time in the Arctic Ocean,
principally cruising in the vicinity of the
whaling fleet, and return south at the end
OF the season. The officers and men of the
Thetis are in excellent health.

PROTECTION OF THE RIVERS.

Frank Leslie's newspaper believes that
the sentiment in favor of national protec-
tion to our waterways is rapidly growing.
It is a correct conclusion all the evidences
prove that the people of the United States
are demanding more and more emphatic
ally that the great free highways of the
nation shall be well cared for by the Fed
eral Government, prevented from deterio-
rating, and where clogged and injured,
that they shall be cleared and restored
This policy has clearly been made mani
fest in the case of the Mississippi river.
1t is to be regretted that in the recent
Waterways Convention held at Cincinnati
and where twelve States were represented
there was no voice from California, whose
rivers and harbors have had only the min
imum of Federal attention. That conyen-
ton called upon Congress to further inn
prove the navigation of the Mississippi
and its tributaries, and to aid and protect
all the waterways of the nation by freeing
Lhen oi opstructlons and putting them
into condition favorable to commercial
vigor. And why not :? The rivers are the
nations, the States have only limited con-
troll over them; their care devolves upon
the nation, but the results of their neglect
is visited most severely upon the people of
the States through which they course
The Federal Government holds the
rivers in trust for the Use of all the people;
they are not the heritage alone of those
who live along their banks Since, there
fore, the interests of all the people in
them are mutual, it is the duty of the ma
tional arm to conserve their navigation by
keeping them open and preventing them
from degenerating into non-navigable
streams

THE EUROPEAN SQUADRON.
Commodore Walker Placed in Charge
Copy of the Order


Copy of the Order.
WASHINGTON, October 1st-The Secre.
tary of the Treasury has relieved Commo.
dore Walker from the head of the Bureau
of Navigation of the Navy Department
The text of the order is as follows:
SIR: You will proceed to the hayward at
New York and confer with the Commandant
and hoist your flag on board the Chicago, as
Acting Rear Admiral and the Commauder-in-
Chief of the Squadron of Evolution.
You will prepare the squadron for sea with
all proper dispatch. and when in all respects
ready, you will sail for Europe and assume
command of the European Station until further
orders
The squadron will for the present consist OF
the Chicago, Allan a. Boston and Yorktown, 10
which the Enterprise viii be added.
Upon your arrival within the limits of the
European Station, when you have hoisted your
porariiy resume your present duties in the Navy
Department. BENJAMIN F. TRACY,
Secretary OF the Navy.
The Secretary says that the relief OF
Commodore Walker grew out of no per-
sonal or official differences between him
self and the Commodore.
That officer has been eight years at the
head of the Navigation Bureau, and his
time would soon expire. To reappoint
him for another term would mean con-
tinuous service on shore in the Department
for twelve years, q precedent which the
Secretary does not care to establish The
vessels which will be under Con- modore
Walkers command are the pick of the
Navy, and in fact, with the exception of
the Charleston and Baltimore, which have
not yet been accepted, represent all of the
navy

THE trip upon which Mr.. Secretary
Blaine is to take the guests of the nation
this week, will extend through twenty
States and cover more than 5000 miles of
travel in one train, in which no cars will
be changed, though thirty trunk roads will
be passed over in the forty-two days time
the trip will consume. 1t is not conceiv-
able that these South and Central Ameri-
can delegates could be any better enter
tanned. They will gain very compre-
hensive idea of the extent, capacity and
general character of the United States,
and win be brought into contact with
nearly all classes of the American people,
and that such an experience will better fit
them for the consultations to follow on the
opening of the Pan-American Congress,
can scarcely be doubted

fresh and intended for immediate con-
sumption, and should have been passed

The Department has informed the Col
lector if be has no reason to doubt the
statement of the appellant it is the opinion
of the Department that the fish should be
passed free of duty under the provisions

lector is authorized to refund the duty ex-
acted in this case.

MINISTER DOUGLASS, with his white
wife and colored maid. would have shown
himself much better American had he
quietly taken passage by usual lines for
his post, as he would have done if going
upon private journey. 1t is very un-
usual thing for the United States Govern
ment to furnish ship-of-war TO take Min
listers to their stations. But, the order
having teen made, and Mr Douglass being
the representative Of the nation, the naval
officers are very properly required to show
him the same courtesies that they would
