The Secretary of the Navy and the Steam Service~ Whe Clerk of the House, &c. No measure ever proposed by Congress has, in in the sume lJengih of time, brought about such bereficiul results, as the union of public and pri- vate means in building und equipping twelve of the finest steamships iu the world. California has been peopled in a space of time unexampled in the annals of history; ecommerce has been increased, and the North and South are brought into suck close proximity, that it is scarerly more than a mere pleasure trp to start tor New Orleans from New Youk, and vee versa. One single year has made an entire change in the aspeet of our coun- try, euch as has not been witneaeed in the last ten years; and, Owing to the union of pudte and pri- vate means, American power aud aemoeratic in- stulutions wre now extendivg trom oue ocean to the other, It was not enovgn for our enterprising projle to have the will to yo io California,— they bad to be provided with the aenns of accom- pliehing their design; end this could not have been farutahed except by sieam. Had aot puplie and private enterprise gone band io hand, the means would either have been inadequate, or of such an inferior order, as to have ovcasioned immense losees of Life and property. Yet this same steam service—the means of hold- ing, Civihzing, aud umpreving our Western empire on the Pacitie—the present Secietary of the Navy deprecates 4s * injunous to the uaval service, and srrogates to himself the privilege of recom- mending its discontinusmece. Had nature given to Mr. Preston an understand- mg capable of devising means tor accomplish hus desires, he igltt, tn eed, the Pome tion of our you navy. aud th wnt of our na~ val officers. He would ereate ao! navy of his owr—an exclusive goverament offur, which he imagines would be less expensive, aad keep offi- cers and men better employed than the ynowae on board of merchant steamers of warlike dimen- sions, and capable of being, at any time, transfer- red to the navel service of the Uatted States. Mr. Preston, it seems, has not looked much into the history of maritime nations, or he would hare dis covered that none but a commercial people ever bad a military navy fit for use; and that, in mea- suring the maritime strength of a nation, reterence most be had not so much to the number of ships she has afoot, as to the number whe cao build and man. ‘The merchant navy rust furnish the sail- ore ; the man-of-war service can only employ them, after they have learned their lessons oa board of merchantmen. The same applies, pernays, with still greater torce to steamships. It is on board of merchant steamers, thet engincere,wachinists, me chanics of suitable description, aud tae whole per- sonale required for that hind of armament, find con- stant occupation and useful practice—the indis- peneable condiuons of arriving et perfection in their respective professions. Lnglaud, who has tome experience in maritime atfiire, and whose very existence depends on a powertal and efficient naval armament, has adopted the plan of unitin: public end private enterprise in the creation ©! merchant e#teamera, cartying her mails, end hable at all times to be dratted into the Queen’s service. In this manner she main- MIDS AN enormous steam, Navy, at a cost not yet exceeding one-fourth the amount whiel an in- dependent government eteam navy would inflict upon the public treasury. Yet the experience of Enpglend ia counted as nothing, wheo put in the cule againet the powerfsl intellect and intuitive knowledge of Mr. Preston. When Lord Ellen- borough was made Firet Lord of the Admiralty, a London peper perpetrated a piece of low witticisin, i speaking of him, thus :— “ Lord Ellemberough rules the fleet, His fame soreads wise aod fac; On India’s platus did Se. poys greet mare man of. war! Wet, Mr Preston's fame does not spread quite so far, for he was never more than a county court lawyer, and commanded, at best, but a company of militia in Virgivia. The Llonse, to-day, re-elected Mr. Campbell as Clerk, the South Car hinians bolting trom tae demo- cratic caucus nonnee, Col Joha W Forney. Theee South Carolina impracticables remind one strongly of the argument of the Freachmia, when accused of infidelity to his wife :—** Does not eve body love freedom?” * Yes” Well, then, © y one love to do what he is bouud to do “No” Well, Lam bound to love my wife; ergo, | cannot love her Wasnineton, January 10, 1850. Tne Policy of Mr. Clayton towards Germany— The Abolition of the Mission to the Central Go- wernment of that Cowntry. I have, in my last, alluded to the bunghag man- ner in which our diplomatic relations with Ger- many have been muneged by this administration, and will now furnish you with some details In the firet place, the admivistration, from per- sonal dislike to Daron Roenne, the representative ofthe central government here ia Washington, abelished or suppressed a mission which, in a commer point of view, was really the only use- ful ove to us ia Germany. Mr. Clayton suppressed this mission while a minister from the central pow- er of Germany was etill aceredited ia Washington, end without even alluding to this fret. He did not bow Ba Roenpe out, nor, iudeed, dismiss him in a hoff, as he did the red republican Poussin; bot he tells ‘him “the power which you represent is nothing at all, and | have no oveasion tor your presence here in Washington nay looger- | have recalled my minister from k furt-oo-the-Maine, aod your masters may de the suuie with you when- ever they please,” dispensing evea wih the cere- mony of shaking hands. To eay nothin ess of Mr, Clayton in thia matter, 1 is not true thet there i nothing left of w central gnveroment tw Germeny.
