 NAVY DEPARTMENT.

 Condensed fgonl the Report of tte Secretary

 of inc .Nimg.

 By the report, 1t appears that the whole expenses the past year, for all persons sit;i- ated at the seat of Government, connected with the naval department, has been about $48,000. There are connected with the naval establishment, about one thousand off, ficers, including those under warrants as well as commissions. The whole annual expenses for their maintenance are estimated at $85,000, or an average Of Ss50 foreach officer. The number of seamen h the na- ", including all the different grades. does not vary much from five thousand; and the annual expenses of their pay, rations and enlistment, are not far from $1, 1,l30,0 ,000, or an average of about $226 for each sea- man. The whole expenses of the marine corps, independent ot the erection of bar racks and officers quarters, are yearly about l $l90,000.

 l Respecting the employment and condi- ton of our public vessels, the Secretary

 tiisfs sf1i. of the line, four ifigates, eleven stoops, and seven schooners, distributed on four foreign stations All these squadrons have been actively employed, and our commerce n al l quarters of the globe, was probably nevel 1 known to be more free from menaccs, dan ger or actual violence.

 The present policy of the department is to launch no more vessels of the same slzt ] with these in ordinary, til the latter arf worn out. But 1t IS proposed to build iron time to time, and protect on the stocks, til ;. wanted, such new vessels as Congress may authorize to be constructed; because, Ii that condition, their timber will improve rather than decay, and the expense oi talk ing care of them, will be trliilng compared with that of vessels in ordinary.

 The cost of repairs of all public vessel the past year, has been $5SO,O0O. Durln the past ten years, the repairs have hee on m average, about $500,o00 annually. The whole estimates made the past yea' ! for the general wants of what is technlcall considered the navy, were only $3,l76,766 5 Those for inc year previous, were S3,227 3S3. Those for the present year, arc S5

 2o2,221. But it IS to be remembered thi :, under the head of naval expenditures, b' U sides what is paid from the amount vote 't on the aniual naval cstimates,itt is custen T ?. ary to class what is paid from half a mi ' lion appropriated for term of years 1 T gradual improvement; almost $2oo.J0o r the marine corps, the payments from |

 navy pension, hospital, and private pensi' at funds. and several miscellaneous sums Y g. ted by Congress on motions, resolntlo ef and petitions and part of which sun though charged under this head, have Int

 orpo concern with our naval establishmei

 On the contrary, some of the expens t. connected with the administration oi u

 department, at this place, are included ,s- the general appropriation bills for the si at, port of government, and are not usua it. sclasscd under the head of naval eSpen of tuFes.

 nd In disbursing between three and four ,ss lions the past year, 1t IS not known t1a re s,nole instance of any loss has occurred by T'he balances on hand, unexponded, DIG about sl .40O.0 .000s but most of them

 probably be wanted to close the diiie,

 e,nts, nll all ttl ttt different s,ii,iecfs VI IT. finally adjusted.
