A Correct Naval “Reserved List,” &¢.— We heard this morning that the Secretary of the Navy had no objections whatever to any person having a correct eopy of the classifica- tion of the Naval Board, and accordingly ap- We take the liberty of publish- ing it, with the simple announcement that it is the only correct list published anywhere up Nothings desiting’ to retati” them, and their late allies to clutch them themselves. Whigs, though up to this time they have hon- ored and placed implicit confidence in Mr. Rockwell, will do so no longer, as he has cer- tainly identified himself with their mortal po- litical foc. The Republican press is hoping, from the silence of the Boston Courier and Advertiser, that the Whig State convention, | Soon to meet, may adopt Mr. R. But they hope against hope; the particular purpose of making a Whig itomination at this time being to break the backbono of the project for a Northern sectional party, which Mr. Rockwell , only’ to" build up. We have no doubt that if the Republicans smuggle & majority of their men into the approaching Whig convention, to nominate Rockwell, as will of course be attemipted, that the real Whigs will vote the straight-out Democratic ticket at the election, to make assurance of his defeat doubly sure. Such are the premises on which we base our views of the probability of the success of the Democrats in the Massa- chusetts election soon to come off. The Want of the Two Pence is the Pother. The New York Evening Post is again in extacies over Col. Kinney’s purchase of the lands of Nicaragua underthe Mosquito King’s bogus grant to Shephard and Haley, the latter of whom, in a communication to that journal, represents the 30,000,000 of acres as being the veriest paradise on earth in its capabilities. The Post, however, on this occasion, stretches the payment of the fiush Colonel for this moon-territory, $200,000—making it just $500, 060, instead of $300,000, as it not long since stated the price to have been. This is at the dog cheap rate of 1.66-100 cents per acre. Only think, cheaper than potatoes in Ireland at two pence a bushel, ‘‘ony—where the divil the two pence was to come from, to buy them, made ail the pother wid tho poorcrathers that was astarvin’ for the want of thim.”’ Really, the Post ts good at humbugging.

It was held on the 7th instant, at Readirg, Pennsylvania. Our friend, Isaae N. Carey, who kept a hair-cutting establishment for many years on Sixth street, near the corner of Pennsylvania avenue, was a representative from the socicty in this city. They could not have bad a worthier one, for he is well known for his excellent sense and serupulously-cor- rect conduct as a man, and consequently er- joys the sincere respect of all who know him personally—and who does not?

Though on the up- riging of Know Nothingism he was the veriest Hunker of the Hunkerism (as it is termed) of his State. He has implicitly followed the lead of his fugleman, Senator Wilson; signing the personal liberty biil, playing intense Aboli- tionist at the Philadelphia Know National convention, and declaring intense indignation at the idea that he was not as true a champion of the cause of ‘‘ freedom,’’ in the Abolition sense of the term, as any ultra Abolitionist .£ Massachusettes. Iis purpose is now ayowed to have been to obtain the nomination of the new He has done his best to Abolitionise the Know Nothings of Massachusetts, as they believe, to deceive them into again placing the Know Nothings-proper in power there. So long as he was thus playing into the hands of Abolitionists, they pretended to swear by him, But on coming to make their nominations re- cently at Worcester, they proved that he, not they, is tha deeeived and used party. They throw him overboard sans ceremenie, as so much useless lumber so far as their future purposes are concerned. His late friends in the South washed their hands cf him some time ago. So he stands in a forlorn condition truly. He has wasted his opportunities in devising and carrying out tricks to overreach others, and has succeeded in accomplishing two things: first, in overreaching himself; and, next, in losing the confdence and respect of every one.
