Tho gunboats Mystic ‘end Victoria were in company with us. The schooner, ‘undor cover of the morning mist, which here ts ‘genc- wally vory donso, had succeeded in reaching the entrance toa ‘arrow and circuitous channel, which, if ‘Choroughiy known, allows a vessel of not more than five foot draught of water to reach the main ship channel at ‘igh water, between the shoal and the island.

The professors (twenty-two in number), with one solitary exception, asgort, without . qualification, their belief in the loyalty of the Superintendent, and affirm, that on all occasions the offesrs, professors and students have exhibited *the utmost propriety of conduct, language and sentiment.” Tho exception re- forred to is William Rogers Hopkins, Assistant Professor of Natural and Experimental Philosophy, who refused to answer the questions submitted to him by the com- raittes.

We have already alluded to the printing establishment introduced on the Nort Carolina, and will simply affix the following order, which, for neatness of execution, would rival many of the large printing offices of this city: — Navy Deranrwunt, July 16, 1862. Sm—Hereafter when enlistments are expressed on the shipping artic'ss for different terms of service, the time of each man must be written in full on the margin to the Joft of his name, thus: The paymaster’s department of this ship deserves special notice, from the fact that its employes aro obliged almost continually to bo at thoir posts, The number of crows that are daily arriving at this port to bo paid off, transferred, &c., 18 incredible, all of whom have to pass through Paymasters Marcy and Meade’s department. The assidulty of these gentlemen and those under them, to forward the interest of the government, is proverbial, and although they are on the home stati n, aro entitled to the same consideration from the Depart” ment as those under fire, Pencvix—five guns, steam gunboat—Licutenant J. F. Williamson commanding—went into commission on the 22d inst. at this station. Since her repairs have beeu completed she presents quite a formidable appearance. Somo soventy-four inen were put on board from tho receiving ship North Caroli a, all hale and hearty looking fellows. She was unger orders to sail yesterday for Key West. We havo already published a list of her officers. Punasxi—one gun, steamer—was at Montevideo Juno ‘20; crow all well. She is ove of the purchased steamers, and was formerly called the Mctacomet. Promotep. —Licutenant Commanding T. M. Dungan, the energetic commander of the United States gunboat Her- cules, has beon promoted, and rocelved his commission as captain. The Hercules has left ou another trip to frus- trate the rebel contraband trade on the waters of the Chegare ko. Sanmg—fitty guna, sailing frigate—Capt. Rioggold.— isat New Loudon, completiag the complement of her crew. She is to Wave for New Bedford in a fow days, Owing to the depth of water required for her, she will, while at the lattér port, have to be anchored in the lower harbor off Clarke's Pojat. Savaxxau.—Out: of, commission, It is reported that Lieutenant Barrett, the efficient instructsr of gunnery at this naval station,Ins applied to the Navy Depart- ‘ment for the use of this old sloop-of-war as a echool ship for the practices of gunnery. Lieutenant Bs. class at present numbers some thirty-sevon members, and from all we have observed they cannot devote suffi cient time tothe school, in consequence of haying to board in Brooklyn and Now York. It froyucntly occurs, too, thrt masters and maste-2’ mates are ordered to join their vessels before they have spent two weeks at school. To Dring them under the discipline necessary to qualify them to enter upon active duty, they should be quartered on board a regular man of-war, under the control of their instructor. Hero one weck’s training would be worth six of the present method; by the present system they lose s0 much time going and coming from their meals that not more than a couple of, hours per day can bo devoted to their class. Although Lieutenant B, has every reason to feel proud of his exortions since his appointment to his present position, yet he is very anx. jous that the department should uot ship any of his o'ass under six weeks’ tuition, We hope that the departmont witl grant his petition; but if it does not, tho class at least should be so arranged as to be under the full con- trol of their instructor. Since writing the above we un- derstand that tho Department at Washington has ordered the Savannah to be fitted out immediately for a school ship,and Lieutenant Bennett has been appointed her commander, Semixo1k—steam gunbont—has taken the berth occu pied by the Adirondack. She is receiving vory oxtensivo ropairs to her wood work and machinery. 3 Sosoma—ten gans, steam gunboat—arrived at For- tress Monroo on tho 19th instant, after a short and pleasant passage of firty-six hours from Portsmouth, N.

She is about 240 fect long, and carries ox¢eloven Inch Dabigren’ gun, one 100-pounder Parrott rifle and eight twenty-four-pounder howitzers. She is considered one of tho finest vossels of hor claas.

Already the recruiting officers attached to tho receiving ships Allegheny, at Paltimore; Ohio, at Charlestown, and North Carolina, at this port, have put the new Jaw ‘in force, and report enlisting as brightening up. There are now over 300 men on rd the Uhio, nearly 700 on tho North Carolina, and as many more in Baltimore and Portland. Seven hundred men have lately been enlisted at Portsmouth, N.
