Inthe letter Judge Vincent de- clares that his appointment of ex-Senator Dor- sey asa jury commissioner of Colfax county is the sole charge against him, All other papers on file, he says, are “testimonials and indorse- ments of my character asa man, my fairness and ability as a judge, and general ap) roval of my course while on the bench.” . Dorsey, Indge Vincent says, warappolnted asone of th ‘commissioners because he had taken no part, the trouble between the cattle and sheep ows ers; because he was a leading republican, and a representative cattleman and peacemaker. The custom was to appolut a republican on the com- mission to avoid having a political jury. Be- fore inting Mr. Dorsey the judge consulted Colonel! Breeden, the attorney. general, and others, who’sala the selec- tion was the best that could be.made. The selection did not occupy an hour, and atits conelusion Mr, Dorsey was discharged and bis duties forever ended. The juries for the next Suage Vic the per Repoignier tpn ever had, rn incent says he never inet Mr. Dorsey but once berore,and that gentleman did not remember the Judge, It did not occur to Judge Vincent that the appointment would have any effect upon national polities or the general policy of the adininisurution.

P, Mains, who has been couvicted ot murder, but escaped on technicality. the September Todge Vineont decided two casce against him, nd says that he doubtless caused iis brother- in-law to r the charge, Judge Vincent insléts that he has been true to his trust, and disks an investigation to the end that the great ‘wrong done him may be righted.

It is recommended that the new steel vessels contemplated consist of one of 2, of 2,400 tons, one of 3,600 tons, one of 5,000 tons, one of 7,500 tons, and two of $800 tons displacement. Tl b0-ton steel ship should have a length of 320 feet, breadth G4 tes an draught 24 feet, with ‘a speed of 16%, knots, and armed with rifled g: nd torpedoes. The proposed 5. uld have a length of 305 feet, nd mean draught 21 teet 4 should have a speed of 17%, knots. The 3,600-ton cruiser should ‘be 300 feet long, 46 feet broad, and have & mean draught 18 feet 6 inches and the speed to be 18 knots.

THE NAVY YARDS. He recommeads that one large navy yard be maintained at League Island, Pa., comvining the advantages of all the others. The Brook- lyn yard is now in condition to commence the building of steel ships. ‘The other yards should be put in like condition as soon as possible. If appropriations for more steel ships are made, it ts hoped that at east one-half the ships will be built in our own navy yards.. One great EARS is the need of better docking tacili- ties. A ‘MISCELLANEOUS RECOMMENDATIONS. It is recommended that the Ticonderoga, now at Brooklyn yard, be converted intoa school ship for the naval academy.
