OUR NAVY. fume Examination at the Naval Academy— Proficiency of the Cadets— The Advantages ef the Naval School as Set Forth During the Present War—Four Fall Clames to In- amgurate the Next Academic Year—Cadets te Gradeate After Three Years Study— The Number Now im the Academy and What They Are Tanght, Ree, Rees ae @ur Newport Correspondence, Nawrorr, R. I., June 16, 1862. ‘Fhe June examination at the Naval Academy has just been brought to a close, and it is gratifying to know that , mpder all the disadvantages attending a sudden change ef location, the nursery of our navy still continues to ‘maintain its high reputation, The examination in the ‘various departments of theoretical study, and the usual Mmfantry, great gun ~nd howitzer drills, were witnessed ‘Dy & board of distinguished naval officers, whe bore ample testimony to the skill and ‘proficiency of the eadets. It really seemed as if the distracted state of ‘Me country had inspired tnese youths with a desire to @ake such progress in military exercises as would reader ‘Meir services desirable im case of an emergency. @ighty-four of them, comprising the first and second ‘lasses, and a portion of theadvanced division of the third ‘gieas, have already sailed in the practice ship Jobo éams,en a cruise of instruction wlong our coast, and ‘will return here with a practical knowledge of the life und duties of the sailor. During their absence the mem” Ders of the third and fourth glasses, numbering about ene hundred and ninety, will ate their studies on ‘Deard of the schoolship Constitution. ‘The success which has attended the administration of time Naval Academy during the past year is due to the ‘enceasing care and industry of the academic staff. When ‘the institution was transferred from Annapolis to New- port, in May, 1861, the want of young officers was sorely Sek by the Navy Department, and the deficiency was wapplied by ordering into active sorvice the first, second fgnd third classes then pursuing their studies at the @eademy. These gallant youths, suddenly launched into ‘he stern realities of naval warfare, entered upon the Besponsidle duties of heutenants, sailing masters and @idshipmen with a determined spirit that overcame el difficulties; and, in the engagements at Hattcras Inlet, Bort Royal, Roanoke Island , aud wherever our navy has @perated, they won the encomiums of their commanders gad nobly enstained the reputation of the academy. After their departure from the academy, the fourth class mambering eighty-one members, remained, and were in- structed during the summer in gunnery, infantry tactics feamanship and French. A’ the commencement of the fell term in September this fourth eluss became the third, and its members were transferred to shore quar, fers in the Atlantic House, which had been rented for ‘at purpose. Then the mewly appointed candidates bo- gan to arrive, aud of thom a fourth class of two hundred amembers was goon quartered on board of the Constita- ‘tion. When these two classes came up for their semi- ganna) examination in February it was resolved to form @dvanced divisions of both, te be composed of all who {had the ability to Keep ahead of the regular classes, This experiment has beon attended with great success. ‘Pwenty-four members of the third class have already ‘ecmpleted the studios of the second, and forty-five mem- Doers of the fourth class hive compictted the studies of the ‘Wied; 80 that the old classification ts once more restored, fend the new academic year will be inaugurated in Sep- ember with four full classes, and thoso who were in the @dvanced divisions will graduate im three instead of Seer years from the date of their admission into the eendemy. ‘The whole number of cadets at the academy is 274 ‘thes distributed :-— @a sehoolship Constitution... @m practice ship Joka Adams. , Great attention is now being paid te the theory and Practice of naval gunnery, target fring with rolid shot ‘and shell, howitzer exercise, best howitzer exercise, in- entry exeraive, use of signals (Myer’s code), sword ex- @reise axsi navalarchitec:ure. ‘The art of rigging, knotting anc splicing is taught by Practical sailors. Cadets use the masiixepike, tar and slush buckets freely in these operations. So you see ‘this does away with the idea of fancy sailors. Cadets ‘fare taught to hand, rocfand steer; to mancuvrea ship, ‘te sail and row # boat, to keep watch on deck, to mount gard, and to act, finally, in the capacities of b offi ears, petty officers and seamen. From this you may $adge that they are receiving # thorough grounding in @very branch. Numerous rejections occur at the exam.

It is « positive loss of money and time, The government, which gives ® youth a professional @fncation, with salary of $500 per annum while re- oriving it, is entitled to the best talent the country can Sora. Competitive examinations should be held in every Congressional district, and the successful ones ap_ pointed. Each clase passes an apprenticeship of six years, fout @f which are pent at the academy and twe atsea. At the ‘expiration of this period they are subjected to a final (qnd severe examination, after which they are fairly in- @agurated into the service, and must ever afterwards ‘trust to chance and good conduct for promotion throngh ‘Ghe higher grades. ‘The following are tho States not now represented in the meaderny — North line, eearen ce aces Arkansas has one cadet new at the academy. ‘Virginia bas six cadets mow at the academy. ‘Texas has one new at the academy. ‘The following is as list Of the officers of the Nava, Meaderny at the present time:— Captain GEORGE 8.

During the course of conversation with another man of note the following was said:— By locating this institution here it will make a de- eided change for Lhe better in the character of those who are now stadying to compose our future navy.

At Annajolis model pars were made use of to a great extent for the purpose of instruction; but here the ships theinse!ves can be brought mto active operation; and in the end, and in this way, as1 have said before, better pra-tical seamen can be produced, Congress might make frat rate riggers; but I doubt whether it could turn out as many good seamen. ‘It is claimed that Narragansett Bay is the enly harber that is known on the Atlantic where vessels can run in with a northern wind. The wind blows here sixty-dve days out of 3650n an sverage. Vosselscan reach it by twenty points of the compass. It alfords excellent anchorage, and is safe from winds, storms and floating ice. It is abundantly provided with fresh water. It ‘would be very diflicuit to blockade it. All this is based upon information acquired by the governinent through its own surveyors. ‘A great deai bus been said tending to reflect much dis- @redit on the couduct of the scholars, and which | am compelled, from observation and infermation, to declare false. Tho better lo substantiate this assertion, I wouid foform yeu that Mayor Crampton, of this cliy, has lately written a letter to Secrotary Welles, in which he says “that he is highly gratificd with the result of the experi- ment.

Between the boards the market was inactive and prices were unchanged. At the’second board there was farther increase in the supply of stock, and a farther decline ensued. Several leading stocks have been rising steadily for several days past, and a reaction was natu- ral. Central advanced almost without stopping from 88 to 96, and some of the Western shares in proportion. A movement, which is said to have substantial support, is going on in Harlem, which is selling at 5 to 7 per cent above the price which ruled so long. It is understood to be based on the prospective advantages of the new city railroad through Madison avenue, which cannot fail to increase the net revenue of ihe com- pany in avery marked degree. An active busi- ness was done ia railway bonds. The issues of the Erie, &c., which are coming from abroad are eagerly absorbed at full prices.

There appears to be less excitement than there ‘was among people in Wall street on the subject of Mr. Chase’s new application to Congress. Certain forcign bankers and certain city journals continue to berate the Secretary; but their influence is im- paired by the fact that they denounced with equal bitterness the law of February, which has worked so well. Every one of the arguments which is now used by the faction calling themselves the “hard money” party was employed to defeat the original issue of Treasury notes—to which issue it is now clear that the success of Mr. Chase’s finan- cial policy has been mainly due. It is ru- mored im the street that Senator Fessen- den will oppose the bili introduced into the Honse by Mr. Stevens. The Senator was opposed to the first bill for an issue of iegal ten- der paper, and made known his objections, though he voted for tho measure. He will probably do the same thing now. The simple question for Con. gress to decide is whether it is better for Mr. Chase to go on negotiating six per cent five year bonds at par, by the simple and easy procese of conversion, at the rate of halfa million a day, or to call upoa the foreign bunkers and capitalists for a loan. It is possible that at Washington this question may adinit of debate; here, in the finan. cial centre of the country, it docs not. Mr. Ciseo received to-day $C00,000, of which $350,000 was for deposit at four per cent, and $250,000 for conversion.
