NAVAL AFFAIRS. MOVEMENTS OF OUR NAVAL VESSELS, WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 1873, Yo ras Epivor or Taz Heratp:— ‘The United States steam frigate Colorado, Cap- tain 0. H. Baldwin, lately ordered to return from the Asiatic squadron (commanded by Rear Admiral T. A. Jenkins), is now upon her way home. She 1s Probably at this time to the westward of the Cape of Good Hope, running toward the Island of St. Helena, and by Marcn 10 or 15 she may be expected St this port. Upon her arrival the Colorado will be inspected throughout by the Board of Inspection, consisting of Commodore W. E. Le Roy, Commo- dore Join Guest and Commander R. Lewis, and after said inspection she will be placed out of com- ‘mission and laid up in ordinary, as it is the inten- tion of the Secretary of the Navy to. keep in com- mission few, if any, of the large ships of the. navy, he believing the iew men allowed the navy (8,500) can better be divided up among a greater number of smull vessels, tius better repre- senting our navy abroad. The United States steamer Hartford, Captain E, T. McCauley, is the relieving ship for the Colorado. She is now on her way from Aden to Bombay, where Rear Admiral Jenkins will hoist his fag on board of her and use her as ‘is flag ship im command of the United States East India fleet. The Ugited States steamer Alaska, Captain A. C. Blake, is now daily expected to arrive in the United States, she having sailed in November, 1872, fur home, She will be inspected upon her arrival, and be repaired for another cruise if pronounced fit for the same by the Board of Survey. The United States steamer Yantic, Commander B. Wilson, is the reliei upon the Astatic station of the Alaska, she having been diverted from her di- rect route to the East Indies in order to proceed to Zanzibar and inquire into the Airican slave trade upon the Hastern Coast of Alrica. This will delay | her arrival upon tie station. She is now probably. near Singapore, or on her way up the China Seas towards Hong Kong. ‘The United States sloop-of-war St. Marys, Com- mander T, C. Harris, is upon her way home from the Pacific Ocean, under orders to one o! the United States Eastern coast ports to be placed out of commission. She is a sailing vessel of the old class, mounting sixteen guns, of about eleven hun- dred tons displicement, and will probably before again going on a cruise, be altered into a steamer. ‘The United States steamer Plymouth, Captain R. W. Shufeidt, which vessel has nearly completed a cruise of tiree years upon the Mediterranean sta- ben ooy now under orders to make a short cruise up- on west coast o1 Africa, proceeding as far down the coast as Monrovia, and from thence to return to the United States. She is tobe placed out of commission atter inspection upon her arrival, and he will be repaired for another cruise as soon ag possible. As yet no vessel has been assigned as the relief of tiie St, Mary’s or Plymouth, nor is it thought to be the intent of the Naval Depart- ment to order any, although a rumor prevails in thie pisoe that the United States steamer Juniata, or Monongahela, will be ordered, the one to pro- ceed to the Brazil squadron and the other to the Mediterrancan squadron. All political matters in Europe, except in Spain, being in beautiful quiet- ‘ness, the necessity for any further imcrease of the Mediterranean squadron seems unnecessary, and probably three vessels will be assigned to the Bra- wil squadron, where there is said tg be only two efficient vessels and one lame duck, the latter cailed the Wasp, said to be not in a condition to go to sea and enly useful for cruising in the quiet ‘waters of the Rio de la Plata, ‘The United States steamer Shawmut will soon be ordered to return to the United States from the North Atlantic Squadron, and rumor has it that the Rear Admiral of that command will transfer his flag to the. United States steamer Richmond, and hig present flagship, the United States steamer Worcester, will be orderea home and placed out of commission. The United States storeships Guard and Supply, now nearly ready for receiving stores jor transpor- tation to the Vienna Exposition, may not both aiteeed upon that service, as it is believed thé juard will prove sufficiently large to carry all the freight which will be torwarded. This last-named vessel is commanded by Commander 0. A. Babcock and will probably sail tor Trieste by Marcn 15, should all i} goods for the Exhibition arrive, as is ex- ect . be Orders have been sent tothe Mare Island Navy Yard (California) to prepare the Kearsarge for sea cruising. P THE NAVAL RETIRED BILL. WASHINGTON, Jan. 22, 1878. ‘To THe EpiTOR OF THE HERALD:— ‘The passage of the House bill to prevent the fu- ture employment of officers of the navy on the re- tired list, which was favorably reported upon to- day by Mr. Cragin, chairman of the Naval Commit- tee of the Senate, and which places the officers of the mavy upon the same footing as their brothers of the army, appears to give great general satis- faction to all the navy officers here who are upon the active list, and it correspondingly depresses the officers of the retired list who by political in- fluence and friends at the Navy Department have succeeded in keeping upon duty. Should this bill pass to alaw it may be safely said that for the present the Naval Ring wili be broken here, and a new formation will be required betore it can again it in successful operation. Aspirants are alre! at work for the commands afloat held dy retired officers, and if the reports be true the plum is the Mediterranean squadron, at present commanded by retired Rear ‘Admiral James Alden, whom President Grant nominated and the Senate confirmed in his command aiter he had been retired under the law now in force. Under this proposed law for retirement the Rear Admiral commanding the North Atlantic Squadron will be Telieved; but some of the most unexpected hits will be the special duty officers, light house boards, naval asylums, navy yards, receiving ships. There can be no doubt that this retired law now proposed for the navy, and so far upon its passage, should not be allowed to delay, for it will introduce in the active list of the navy an energy slowly but surel, of late years failing off, because of their satisie feeling that the retired officers always on shore de- voted their best energies to secure the best place: irrespective of the just claims of the active lis Ollicers, who away upon distant cruises could not see after the place which they so much desired and deserved, uiter active duty oats and which they expected as their reward. I think you will agree with your correspondent and urge the speedy pas- Bage of the Naval Retired bill now befere Congress. CHANGES IN THE NAVY REGISTER. To THE Epitor or THE HERALD:— It appears that 52 officers, originally of the mer- chant marine, but admitted in 1868 to the regular navy, are now endeavoring to be advanced gn the Navy Register. On admission they were com- missioned as lieutenants, masters and ensigns; but, in the natural order of promotion, 16 of them bave become lieutenant commanders, while the remaining 36 are lieutenants. Now, however, they claim to go over graduates of the Naval Academy as follows:—Of the lieutenant command- ers 5 to pass over 34 numbers, while the remaining ‘11 (in another part of the list) want to go over 25 numbers; of the 36 lieutenants 8 (now at the head of the list) claim promotion wo the grade of lleu- tenant commander, and then to pass over 27 officers in that grade; the remaining 28 want frst to goovera whole class of 42 licutenants, then be promoted to the grade of lieutenant com- mander aud finally go over 27 officers of that grade—a grand total of 52, going over 103. Such stupendous Jumping was never before attempted dn the navy, and, even if based on justice, must, 4f brought about, cause inconceivable discontent among those passed over. Retardment of prome- tion for years, consequent loss of pay, recetviny orders trom former juniors im rank—these, ali questions of the greatest moment tu the naval officer, arc involved. The volunteer officers claim their a cement under @ law of Congress. It would, therefore, scem that they are simply askin, justice. the regular officers have ni laws o a8, even More explicit than those relating to the voluatecrs, which, if carried out, would not only secure beyond ali doubt their present (tion on the Navy Kegister, but also probably advance them above some of the volunteer ofcers put in ahead of them. That such iaws exist we have only to refer to an article which appeared ina recent number of the army and Navy entitled “The Advancement of Certain Oiicers in the Navy,” wherein the writer, accerding to excellent legal opinion, has made a Clear case, with arguments. We deemethe cases similar, not conflicting. Both are equitabic; hence a partial fulfilment of the law, as for the volanteers alone, must evidently inflict a in- justice on the regular officers. The fact of the ‘volunteer officers plo legal talent to P mn their claims has the graduates of the Naval Academy to do likewise; and we can congratulate the latter on having secured @ gentieman who, for honor, ability and legal acumen, stands at the head of his protession in America—the Hon. William M. Evarts, of New York, ANOTHER SAN JUAN QUESTION. {From the Alta California, Jan. 19, 1873.) It is reported that the Northern Pacific Railroad Company has laid claim to San Juan and the adja- cent islands of Orcas and Lopez, under the law au- thorizing it to take up unsurveyed land as part of its land subsidy, and that it will try be ceyposness the American settiers, who have established them- eelves with the intention of making permanent homes there. ‘These isiands could not be surveyed while the title was in dispute, and the sompeay could probably not make a better selection wi! reference to its own profit, but we should be much astonisned if is should appear that Vongresg had J € NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JANUARY 30, 1873.—-TRIPLE SHEET, left settiers The Minnde® have & soll, an abundant wth of nutril grass, well adapted fr sheep, 7 woel_ will gpronebiy. te aitustion is also favorable tr smuggling, a busi- ness that will alwavs thrive so long as the tariff is high in the United States and trade is ree in Van- couver Island, Congress has provided in ali the acts granting lands to rail that the settlers who previously taken up pre emption or homestead claims, in accordance with law, within the limits o{ the railroad grant, should not be dis- turbed; but some oversight may have been com- mitted with reference to these islands because of the dispute. Ifit should turn out that the settlers there have been left. without protection, the com- pany, by recognizing their superior rights, will ave an opportunity of gaining credit for prudence and gensrortty, and of saving itself from an ani- mosity that might cost dear in the future. THE OCEAN STEERAGE ABUSES. at as, International Co-operation Required. To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— Mr. McDonnell’s narrative of his voyage from London via Havre, in the steerage of the steam- ship Erin, as detailed in yesterday's HERALD, ex- Poses a condition of the emigrant trafic which calls for speedy and effective relief. and I trust that you will not permit the subject to drop out of publicity until the rights of the thousands of humble but decent and deserving families who crowd the steerages ofthe Atlantic steamers are thoroughly protected, It may, perhaps, occur to many of your readers that a speedy remedy for such abuses as are detailed by Mr. McDonnell 1s to be HORSE NOTES. After a brief respite, to give the horses a breath- ing spell, the snow storm of Thursday and the other one on Monday made excellent sleighing. In fact it was never better than it is at present, Everything available for the purpose of a drive on the snowpath has been in use ever since. More sleighs have been sold in New York during the past six weeks than ever before in the same space of time, and it is reported that the manufac- turers in some parts of the country have closed out their stock entirely to fill their New York orders. Mr. Irving’s thoroughbred trotting horse Jim Irving hasecreated a great deal of excitement on the road lately. He has shown the most remarka- ble speed, and seems actually to fly when called on, This king among the trotters is so perfect a driver that he can be sent to the top of his tremendous speed and the driver holding the reins in one hand. Some old horsemen who witnessed his speed on the road said they thought he could go “a two- minute: gait.” His size, pedigree, shape, color, speed, disposition and soundness cannot be ex- celled, and his future promises a remarkable career on the turf. An immense number of people were out driving on Sunday, and the Park and roads were crowded to their utmost capacity. Three or four accidents daily occur, and the wonder is that there are not more. It is a singular fact that when an accident occurs in the Park the report of it never finds its way into the newspapers, found in Congressional legislation, and this wouldbetrue ifthe offending ships were Ameri- can vessels, subject to American laws; but unfor- tunately we have no transatlantic steamers to regulate. The emigrant business is entirely in the hands of foreigners, and out of nearly three hundred thousand passengers who landed in New York last year more than ninety per cent were brought in British and German steamships. Over these ships we have no control until they arrive in our own waters. Steamers that come here with a large number of passengers from Great Britain and Ireland are fitted out under the regulations of the British Passenger acts of 1855 and 1863, which are rigidly and impartially en- forced before the ship sails. They are very full and complete; in fact,a few and comparatively unimportant amendments to those acts would se- cure tull protection to the emigrant passenger, provided jurisdiction over the ships when at sea can be procured by treaty, and an international tribunal be created, with power to punish viola- tions of the act during the voyage. Ihave copies of the acts of 1855 and 1863 before me, and, with your permission, I will quote some of the sections which guard against the abuses of which Mr. McDonnell specially complains. DETENTION OF SHIP AFTER FIXED DAY OF DE- PARTURE. Section 48 provides that pemcnsers shall be maintained by the ship or paid subsistence money, and if detained ionger than ten days the passenger may recover back his passage money, with dam- ages not exceeding £10 each, BERTHS. There shall not be more than two tiers of berths on any one deck, and the interval between, the floor of the berth and the deck beneath shall not be less’than six inches, nor the interval between the tiers and between the upper tier and the deck above less than two feet six inches. The berths shall be securely constructed, and shall not be less than six fect in length and eightcen inches wide for each statute adult, and shall be sufficient in numbers for the proper accommodation of all the passengers, No berths occupied by passengers sed the voyage shall be taken down until forty- eight hours after the arrival of the ship at her final port of discharge unless all the passengers shall have voluntarily quitted the ship before the expiration of the time. SEPARATION OF MALES AND FEMALES. All the male passengers of fourteen years and ues who shall not occupy berths with their wives shall be. berthed in the forward part of the ship, in a compartment divided off from the space appropriated to the other passengers. Not more than one passenger, unless husband and wife or femaleaor children, shall occupy one berth. WATER CLOSETS. There shall be at least two, with two additional closets for every 100 passengers, with separate closets for the exclusive use of women and youn, children. All the closets shall be firmly construct: and maintained in a serviceable and cleanly con- dition during the voyage and shall not be taken aoe until forty-eight hours after the arrival of the ship. CARGO OR STORES ON PASSENGER DECKS. No part of the cai or of the passengers’ lug- pare, or of the provisions, water or stores, witether for the use of the passengers or crew, shall be car- ried on the upper deck or on the passenger decks, unless in the opinion of the emigration officer it shall be securely stowed and so placed as not to in- terfere with the light or ventilation or with the comlort of passengers. Foon, The act provides an ample allowance of bread and biscuit, wheat flour, oatmeal, rice, peas, pota- toes, beef, pork, tea and coffee, sugar, salt, mus- tard, pepper and vinegar, with three quarts of water daily to each statute adult, exclusive of the coeneey necessary for cooking the above-named stores. The act also provides for an efficient crew, boats, Ife buoys, anchors, night signals, fire engines, light and ventilation, &c. It prohibits the carriage articles injurious to health, aud directs that the ship and all her appurtenances, water, pro- visions, &c., shall be inspected by the emigration officers at the port of departure. It also provides for medical attendance, hospitals and medicines; for forwarding Lipeerag toil to their destination in case of disuster; for the recovery in British and colonial courts of penalties for violation of the act. Now, if Mr. McDonnell’s statement is strictly correct it is plain that the Erin, although a British ship, pee no regard to the British Passenger act, and that if sbe had carried her passengers under the act she would have violated many of its most essential enactments and would have subjected her owners to heavy damages if prosecuted in a British Court. You may be surprised to learn that, be piterinne t her character as a British ship, she escaped all liability under the British Passenger act by embarking her passengers at a foreign port (Havre). The Erin left England with only. fifty passengers, including children, whereas @ pas- genger ship under the act is ‘ta ship proceeding from the United Kingdom to any port out of En- rope, &c., &c., and carrying more than fifty statute adults, or more than in the proportion of one stat- ute adult to every twenty tons register, if pro- pelled by steam.” For any violations of United States laws which may have occurred on board the Erin after her arrival in our harbor her officers and owners may, ofcourse, be called to account; but for offences committed upon the ocean she is scot-free, so-far as the laws of the United States or the Passenger act of Great Britain are concerned. And herein exists a state of affairs which should be promptly remedied through the agency of an international reement, which should bring all such cases as that of the Erin under the control of the Passenger law enacted for the pro- tection of emigrants sailing from British ports, and providing @ court or mixed com- Mission to sit in New York for the summary tria’ and punishment of all violations of the act upon the voyage. So long as we are without Amert- can steainships suited for the transportation of steerage passengers across the Atiantic, so long must we depend, a8 we are now doing, upon for- eign steamships, and our own laws are Inoper- ative and powerless to protect the emigrant upon the ocean. Next to the estadlishment of suitable | and well-conducted American steamship lines the one remedy within our reach in favor of the emi- grant is international co-operation with tue mari- time Powers under whose flags the snips sail, espe- cially with Great Britain and Germany. If lam not misinformed each of those governments is ready to join the United States government in & convention for the better protection of steerage passengersat sea, but our government, for some inscrutable reason of its own, ts holding back, and if it is not directly Ra tae to the negotiation it is | } 8 desire to brin; languid and tnert int it to a satis. ke, &6., factory conclusion. Iam, BSERVER, THE FIRE UNDERWRITERS’ MEETING, Report on Gas Machines and the Dan- gers Attending Their Use—Gasoline as @ Fire Agent. The Board of Fire Underwriters held a special meeting, at 156 Broadway, yesterday afternoon, to Msten to the report of the Committee on Gas Machines, &c. The report is an exhaustive one and occupies twelve pages. The committee seem to have omitted nothing from their observation that im any way appertained to their office. In their report they state that gasoline, which is used im these gas machines, is extremely dangerous, Sithough it is not a taneously combustible fluid. e danger in asiag it arises from the fact that, unless w! enclosed in metalitc vessels, it fmpregnates the surrounding atmosphere with its vapors, thas formin, josive »_ Which renders the approaching e ceedingly dangerous 5? ae 5 eS Oe pioaion ; im fact, an ex} or fre is sure nt’, ig i. from what reason it is hat to say. One horse died Saturday afternoon in the Park trom bursting a blood vessel, Mr, William Johnson’s bay horse has been trot- tring very iast on the snowpath during the last few oars. Mr. KE, A. Williams has a pair of very fine bay horses, ence he parohased recency. They can step well, r, William H. Gray drives a pair of fine sized 2 horses on the road. They can step fast to- gether and can go the length of the “pike.” They are on the road every day attached to an elegant sleigh, and are driven with great skill by their 0 wner. Among the far from pleasant sights which one encounters nowadays in the streets of New York, and which our patent rulers perhaps consider a treat to their taxpaying friends, we note the dead horse sledge (drawn by four horses), upon which is miles. uncovered, a ghastly Joad of dead ani- mals in various stages of decomposition. This sight shocks the nerves of strong men, and must have a far from pleasant effect upon delicate ladies, Decency would suggest a covered vehicle for the transportation of dead animals, and itis a to a civilized city that contractors are allowed to convey them in this manner. In Boston and other cities covered carts are used, and there is no reason why New York should not have them also. Mr. Asa Lewis owns a very fast bay mare, by Su- perb, which is a splendid driver, and can ratile a sleigh down the length of the read at a 2:35 gait. ‘The road horses have been well patronized dur- ing the last few days. Heintzel’s and Judge Smith, on Central avenue; Florence’s, Bertholf’s and the Old Club House on the Eighth avenue, and Stet- son’s, in the Park, have had all they could do to accommodate their friends, A feature of the amusements at some of these places has been the introduction of sable minstrel bands, who play, sing and dance in true darky style, and make one nee they are among the plantations of “Ole irginny.' ir, Robert Bonner’s Ethan Allen, mare Poca- hontas, has been trotting very fast to a sleigh this Winter, and this daughter of Ethan Allen and Po- gahontas, the pacer, shows in every limb and move- ment that ‘blood will tell.” Mr. J. Q. Law’s team is recognized on the road as one of the fastest gentleman’s teams of New York. Mr. Law has many a sly laugh at those who, hav- ing fast single horses, try to beat him down the road and fail. The chestnut mare of his team trotted in her four year oid form in 2:41, The veteran horseman, George N. Ferguson, has just retarned from San Francisco. He reports all quiet on the Pacific slope. Mr. Ferguson has a very tast horse in his stables, named Crown Prince, who will, during the coming trotting season, carry off many of the purses and stakes for which he will be engaged. is Valuable horse is now in the right man’s hands, and when he starts the public will be able to back him with confidence. Elisha B. Vatl, of Poughkeepsie, has sold his trotting gelding, Black Beauty, to a gentleman in this city for $1,200. TROTTING IN CALIFORNIA.
