be the fate, andthc fault, of our free instl-

at certain periods operate a positive evil-

We have been natch gratified, says the
Washington Telegraph, in examining, in
the possession of Mr. Woodbury, two hcau-
tiful specimens of Sewing 8ilk, from the
interior of New Hampshire, as far north ns
(lm forty third degree of latitude. The
colors are bright, tho thread very smooth
and even, and the quality throughout sel
dom. exceeded.—What adds to the interest
in this case is the circumstance, that with
in four years tho seeds of the mulberry trees
and die eggs of the silk worms, from which
these sji^cilnrns citin') were obtained by
Daniel Bailey Esq. of Woarc; ami that the
rearing of hoth, life winding front the
halls or cocoons, the twisting, coloring,and
whole manufacture, have bcca carried on
in M . B’s. own houuschold, by his own
family.
This it seems, U a genuine domestic man

Union—and requires for its success neither
the risk of large capital, nor tho dangerous
power of g eat corporations.
We are very reluct intly compelled, by
0 sepso of duty, to notice an article in the
Georgian of This Morning, signed OU
T VLISSt It relates to the title of the

—a s ihjact, which we had fondly hoped,
would find no agitator, at the present mb
ment, when ail obstacles to a fair settle

moved. The wise, among the Indians,
have adopted the policy pi escribed by the
Federal Government—a policy consult
tog, as much their interest, as that of the
states who*conflict with them—and which*,
to any rational mind, provides advantages,
that tHeir obstinate adherence to the prin
ciples of Outaiissi, if they were even yiel
ded*, could ndver secure to them. This
writer seems to' argUe under a delusion,
lie would claim, and retain a fancied right
although its acquirement ■ ottltl he mani-
fbstly injurious. The character of the Ih-

Tho force in the Pacific, consisting of
one frigate, a sloop and a schooner, is sta
ted as sufficient for the piotectiou of bur
interests in that sea.
The report of tho Commissioners of the
Navy to tho Secretary represent* life ships
of War in ordinary us in a slate of prema
ture and rapid decay. The principal rca
son assigned for this by the Secretary is
that extreme, division of duties allotted to
the Coinm.uidants of the Navy Yards, by
which proper care cannot be bostnwml on
the vessel* laid up in ordinary. The cul
ling down of tho best timber in the country
to construct ships subjected to this process
of rapid destruction, is properly reprehen
ded.
It is recommended a* the true policy of
tho government to suspend for the present
the building of ships of War, unless for
some special service } to provide for the
repair And equipment of those in ordinary,
for tho erection of jho necessity sheds for
their preservation, and for the establish
nient of a Police, at each of tho'Navnl sta
dons, for such superimlcnceas will best ef
fect these purposes. The prcpnrntlnn of
our public ships for service is fopresented
as very defective. They are compelled,in
consequence, to incur licavv expenses in
foreign ports for supplies and repairs. The
result is that where uia*erials (of effecting
repairs cannot be procured, tho vessel is
during die wholo ciuise in-a state, which
endangers her.safety and that oi lier erfew,
Such a system is properly condemned as
hazardous at all times, and in war pnrtic
ularfy perilous.
Tho practice of either discharging sea
men in foreign ports, when tho period of
tlieir enlistment has expired, or paying
their fexpeme* homo, is condomncd qs lea
ving the seaman, in tho one case, a wan
derer on a foreign sliorfe, suffering from
want, or compelled to enter another ser
vice, and in the o her c .se throwing a boa-
vy burthen op t ho funds provided for. the
Navy. To remedy this evil it i* proposed
to make the cruises of our ships of war
shorter,arid the period of enlistment longer
than Know customary. i* '
There is nothing the Report represents
that has tended to exhaust the general Na
vy fund more than the present inode of
building and maintaining the Navy Yards.
The permanent expenses on this head a
mounted in I«28 ta $268,744 The Sec
rotary proposes a reduction of their num
ber and “concenfrating the moans and ma
terials for building, repairing, &c. at two
or three points” as more beneficial to the
Nu al service. The Commissioners of the
Navy,Board have been instructed in their
last tour of inspection to exanfine them
w ith a viowf to this reduction, and the se
lection of other sites more convenient.-—
The Commissioners hato made a report
•n this subject, which is strongly rccom
mended to the notice of Congress for the
independence of its views and its freedom
from local prepossessions. -
