An application was made last week to the Circuit Court of Washington City, by Wm. C. Brashears, for a rule against the Secretary of the Navy, to show cause why mandamns should not issue ,o command him to payment of the salary of the said Brashears who at the time of the annexation, was Lieutenant in the service of that Republic. -.

 Able counsel appeared the part of the applicant, and after an argument, tke question postponed, to allow the Secretary of the Navy 10 be heard. The question it is understood, will have to be finally de- citled by the Supreme Court. This Is matter az will readily bc seen, which intimately interests the officers of the Navy of the United States, involving as it does, not merely question of pay, bat es rank, by the decision of which, if tn favor oi the applicant many of them will be superseded by shose who never held commissions nader the U. States
