And when all was bright again, site f.anr- d to wander front Iter sister, and her spoils foi Ids illustrious services in (lie cause of our Independence. The fate of Paul Jones, living and dead, 1ms been a strange and a hard one, nnd contains as many items of injustice as ever fell to one man’s lot.

The only nnvat officer in the service who showed the intuitive genius of n great chief, lie not only was not placed where he belonged, at the head of the Navy, hut was postponed in rank to a long string of men who Imd no reputation nnd never acquired any. En gaged in Ihe most arrive and successful service, for seven years, he not only receiv ed not a dollar of pay, and no rations, but lie was almost the whole time in advance to the Congress for money paid out in re pairing his ships and feeding bis crew*.-— From lime to unto ho occupied himself in giving to the navy deunriment his views, full of sound sense nfitl comprehensive sys tem, of the organization of 'lie navy, lint while time has confirmed his views and led to their adoption, it was not till the world Imd forgotten who Was their author.
