House of Representatives. Wasnixetos, Feb. 13, 1355. DISCIPLINE LY THE NAVY, This being the day set apart for the consideration of business appertaining to the Navy, Mr. Bocock, from the Naval Committee, reported a Dill providing for more efficient discipline in the Navy. He explained its pro- visions. There was not, so far as he could learn, the alightest objection to the bill. Its passage was desirable from the fact that there has been no legislation concern- ing discipline in the navy since the year 1800—with the exception of the abolition of punishment by the lash, in 1850—notbing having been substituted in lien therefor. The bill provides that sailcrs serving three years, if aithful, shall receive an honorable discharge, and one re-enlisticg within three months after his discharge, on presestt ig his certificate of fidelity und obedience, shall entitled to full pay during said taree months, Sum. mary Courts Martial may be ordered on petty officers and pergons of in‘erici ratings, who, on conviction of an offence, msy be sentinced to any one of the following punishments :—Discharge from service, with a bad con- duet discharge; sobtary confinement ir irons, single or double, on bread snd water, or d'minished rations; itary confinement in irons, single or double—the ement not to exceed thirty days; solitary confinement, in irons, not exceeding two months; a to next inferior rating; deprivation of libert; onshore oa foreign stacious. Extra police duties ani loas of pay, not to excee! three months, may be added toany of the above mentioned punishments. No sen- tence of a court mart‘al to be carried into eilect without the approval of the officer ordering the court, who shall have power to remit in part or altogether, but not to commute any sentence. Exceptions made in case of sickness or ibjury to the health of the person sentenced. After amendment, that sentence of dismissal shall not a {ato effect in a foreign country. The bill was passed. EFFICIENCY IN THE NAVY. Mr, Bocock reported the Senate bill with the amend- ments to prom the efficiency of the navy. It prevides that the ‘cent shall summon a board of naval offi- cers to make @ careful examination into the efficiency of id to report to the Secretary of the the of ‘ank of all officers of said grades who shall be incapable of performing promptly and efficiently their duty, both on shore and afloat. If the finding be ap- Proved of by the President, they shall be placed in the order of their ik and seniority at the time upon a list in the Navy Register, to be called the re- worved list, They are to receive leave of avsence or furl y, to which they may be entitled whea a0 , aod shall be ineligible to further promo- tion, but shall be subject to the orders of the Navy De- tment at all times fordvty. The vacancies created im the active service list, by placing officers on the re. served list, shall be filled by Sp toned Promotion in the order of rank or seniority. Al! officers who may be pi moted to fill vacancies shall, while Lege ma receive only on leave of absence, or waiting orders, the pay to whieh they would have been entitled if euch promotion had not been made; but when employed at or on other duty, the; ll reeeive in addition the di oe between tha sea or other duty pay, of the grade to which they may be promoted. I€ is provided that this scrutiny and reservation of officers shall extend only to the grades of captain, commander, lieutenant, passed ipmen, and masters. Mr. Bocock said no opinion was better founded than that there ought to be . 8 the yuapeet searching reform in the of the navy. y officers are now on the list who we to have been placed there, and draw pay wil it mag oy? service. There is revelting in the idea of turning off old naval officers without the means of subsistence, and this bill makes pronjsion for them. He adverted to the varions abuses wi the bill will correet, and related the following as ® case in point :—An old captain, not long since, called on the Secretary of the Navy and said something about buai- nem; but the Secretary did not know him until he told him his name and the State from which he came. He eaidbaving had nothing to do for some time. he had been farming; but he came here semi-annually and drew leave of absence pay. Me. Packuam, (dem ) of N. Y.—Who is to blame for those captains not being in service? Mr. Bocock replied— In some instances officers are in- gompetent. No discreet Secretary of the Navy would men who had not done active service for twenty- five years. Mz. Sxxttox, em) of N.Y., thought we had too many officers. ineficient ones ought to be dis. and no more retained than can be employed. He argued it was oy and anti republican to retire officers on pay while was summarily beeen od.roIt was & class of legislation derived from the Englis! stem. Ne Cuasvuen, (whig) of Pa., while willing for the creation or board of officers to pass on the of those submitted to their examination, op 14 retiracy of any of them without formal Mr. Stantor, om.) of Tenn., would vote for the bill because he believed it to be a step of advancement Sy t direction. 2 . ees, (hie) of N. ¥., sportivel said, that re- tiring members of Congress abould be placea on a list, as by this bill the House was about to establish an enor- mous ¢: vil pension system. +: wes by a vote of 116 against 46. .

SEWARD, (dem.) of Ga., offered an amendment, making a tions for harbor improvements. He thought it infinately better to appropriate the mi to iwprove Southern harbors that the largest class of s! may enter them, than to spend it in the construction of vessels with a draft adapted to Southera harbors. Without condnting action on the bill the conimittee rose and the House adjourned. Our Washington Correspondence. Wasnrvaros Feb. 12, 1855. Doings in the Snpreme Court—Large California Claim. The Supreme Court was engaged to-day, by Attorney General Cushing, in the ease of Archibald A. Ritchie, appellee, against the United States, appellants, This is a case involving claims to lands in California against the United States, Under the act of Congress of March 3, 1851, “to ascertain and aettle the private land claims in the State of Cslifornia,” Archibald A. Ritchie presented to the Board of Commissioners, his claim to a tract of land, called “Suisun,” of four square leagues, original granted to Francisco Solano, who conveyed it to MM. G Vallego, who conveyed it to Ritchie, The Commissioners confirmed Ritchie's claim, and the United States appealed to the District Court’ forgthe Dorthera district of California, which also conarme’ it, ‘The United States now appeal to the Supreme Court, The government contends that the grant to Solono was not made sccording to law, and is, therefora, null and void: and the lands in question being mission lands, were not colonizable.

Mr, Do¢ge is a ine, manly specimen of a representative of the West—a thoroughly national man, and @ good appointment. With the return to the conservative policy of Mr. Marey, the duties of our Minister to Spain will be hght. If he make himself popu- lar with the Spanish people, and It and fight no- bony, he will have fulfilled his miss‘on, ‘The appointment of Mr Appleton, of Maine, to the Seeretaryship ef Legation to England is alao very credite- ble.

Miller was withdrawn, and Mr, Cox, of Ohio, substituted for Secretary of Legation to Peru. Other appointments were mado of an unimpor- tunt character. The tariff men—that is, those who wish a modification of the tariff—are still sanguine of success; but I cannot see the reason of their hope and expectation. They can only meditate a surprise of the members from Pennayl- vania ina midnight attack, against which they will to guard, In the eqelee, course of business, the tariff by pits is as dead as Hector, who was slain by Achi'les, ‘The patent extension of Colt’s firearms was yestorday unmercifully beheaded. The enacting clause being struck out in committee, the House concurred by a large majority, and left the bill a lifeless trunk. he following measures are now pending, with some hope of their passage: Ist. Mr, Brodhead’s bill for the establishment of a Board of Claims. 2d. The Solvier’s Poa, Land Bill. 3d. Mr. Mallory’s bill for increasing the efficiency of the Navy. This bill seems to be quite popular with many officers now here in Washington. 4th. A bill for building several additional sloops of war. ‘These bills, with the annual appropriat’on bills, are probably all that will be passed this cession of ‘Con- gress. Mr. Fuller’s bill, for building tour additional revenue cutters, passed the House this morniog., The bill con- tains one very valuable and useful provision—namely, that no person shall be appointed Captain or Lieutenant to any United States Revenue Cutter, unless he shall have served at least one year before the mast, and is ac- quainted with navivation. Mr, Brodhead’s bill for the establishment of a Board of Claims is the only thing which, if passed, would put anend to the profession of ignorant lob>y members, and establish in their places lawyers, learned in the law, who would be obliged to argue the 8 of their clients. If Congress really wants to put anend to log- rolling and all undue influences on members in respect to the passage of private claims, the passage ef Mr. Brodhead’s bill will answer the purpose. ‘There seems to be some disagreemont between the government organs in Washington, and some further disagreement between the organs and a large and re- spectable portion of the democratic members and Sena- tors in Congress. Congress, however, is so rapidly drawing toa clo:e, and publi: matters point so visibly to an entire change in public opinion, that these mat- ters remain unteeded. The New York softs, who for some time past had gar- risoned the hotels in Washington, have left us. A rumor peels that the New York democrats are to have a jarge consolidation meeting of hards and softs, and that some great national democrat, now here in Washington, is to preside over it or make a speech, They may hold the meeting, but I doubt whether the person selected to preside over them, or address them, will be forth- coming. After all, the meeting’ will not nominate Gen. Pierce nor Governor, Morey, but Gov. Seymour, who is believed to be the only man who can unite the demo- cracy of the Empire State.
