IMPORTANCE OF THE MONITOR SYSTEM Detailed Statement of Appropriations and Expenditures. ESTIMATES FOR THE COMING YEAR. Wasuiisotos, Dec. S, 1876. The report of the Secretary of the N?vy will show that there are belonging to the navy 146 vesicle ot 130,157 tons measurement. Kxclusive of howitzers and U ailing guns, they carry 1,142 gur.e; ol these, 123, carrying 013 guns with a measurement of 120,SOS tons, have stentn-powcr; and 23, carrying nominally 220 guns, are sailing vessels, in 1860 there wore 203 ves sels; of these, there have been sold, 46; brolteu up, 18; lost at sea, 5; malting 69 vessels, thus reducing the number to 134 vessels. To which udd new vosscls, 10; purchased vc.-sels, 2, thus malting the whole number or the register at the presont lime 146 vessels. MATKKIAI. or COXSTKl'CTIOJI. Of our present forco of every class, 40 aro built of Iron?namely, 5 doubleturroied Ironclads, 15 slngle turreted monitors, 2 torpedo boats and 18 steamers of various classes. Of the remaiudcr, 65 are of live ouk? namely, 1 Ironclad, 5 steamers of tho first rate, 20 iteamors of the second rate, 10 steamors of the third ruto, and 20 sailing vessels. The romaining 41 aro white oak amps of almost every class. CON1UTIOX Or VXisSKLS. Of the whole number, 75 aro in actual service and 4 ?re preparing lor sea; 16 may bo considered as en tirely unlit lor futuro service and the remainder are at the various navy yards, 6omc requiring slight anl others extensive repairs, but most of them could bo made ready for uuy special service in a short time. Seventeen ot our steamers have been furnished with compound engines and hoileis of the best class and with tho latest improvements, and nearly all our other steamors have, during the last eight yours, bocn sup plied with uow boilers and their machinery extensively repaired. There is also on band, stored at the various navy ynros, live ouk timber sufficient lor thirty-live new llnps ol war, besidos a large quantity of other valuable timber aud naval material of every kind. This state ment shows that alter oight years of active service ot gvery kind our navy is now in the character aud con tition of its ships und material?in a condition lar su perior to that in which it was in 1869, and indeed far iiorc poweriul lor wurllke purposes than It has ever lofore been in times ol peace. It docs not compare tither tn tho number or cbuructor of its vessels with Iho expeusivoeslubl.shmuuls ol those Kuropcan nations whose mutual relations keep them always In armed array, whose contiguous coasts und deep harbors at boino and scattered colonies all over the world seem to require that they should constantly rival each other at whatever expense, In tho size and power of their navul vessels and armaments; but tor the defensive purposes ot a peaceful people without colonics, with a dungeious coast and shallow harbors, .separated by a vast ocean Irom warliko naval I'owors, our navy is not without strength, and when its iron-clad licet shall be com pletely repaired?a work requiring now but Utile timo and expense?aud Its forco supplemented by tho com paratively cheap addition recommended, it will be found sufficient to resist any lorco which could be brought across the ocean to attack us aud powerful also for oltousivo operations upon tho seas and among tho islands which lie contiguous to our own shores. In view of the fart that tho appropriations for tho two principle working bureaus of the department aver age but little over $5,000,000 annually, and considering the cost ot merely maintaining a nav? consisting largely of ships hurriedly built ot porlahablo material, nhich, alter roquiring lor a few years constant repair, lually drop out ol the service from utter worthless less, tho Secretary thinks this slate of tnlngs rellects ?real credit upon those officers through whose pructi ml knowledge and ability the department has been able to utilize all tbere was valuable in the navy, aud to bring it to Its present .-tale ol cllicioucy. WHAT KAVY IS RKqtMKKU The question ot what should compose a sound and economical, but efficient naval force, bus presented luring the |>asl few years so many different aspects that we tuny perhaps congratulate ourselves that wo fiavo not followed step by siep in the practical, but cx oensive development of the problem in wbich other maritime nations have boun engaged. The question constantly recurs, however, brought up by con flicting Interests and optnloDs, shall we enter upon tho expensive and unsatisfactory construction of urmor-piuted, gun-bearing vessels involving millions ?>f dollars in the cost ol each ouo, or shall we be con ?eut with providing ourselves, at a minimum cost,' with the means ol destroying such vessels should they appear fit hostile altitude on our cum-is or in our laigor harbors? Fast, well built woodon cruisers, ?roper lor the police ot mn scar, serving as schools ol lusiruclion in time ot peace and capable ol destroying 'tu enemy's commerce In tune ol war, are, uudcr ail conditions, scrvici able. The monitor cluss ol vessels has. lor us, sjiecial and valuable uses in conjunction with oilier lories. Tho torpedo schools givo our officers the instruction necessary to ulilizo whatever there is in this most efficient arm ol attack and de fence. TUK 31 AKIN B 1UM. ?

Any vessel which can salely cross tlie seas to cntor our haibors or lie upon our shores will be louud vulnerable to camion ol moderate weight and caliber, while the heaviest armor will uot protect a ship from attacks ol torpedoes managed by brave and well Instructed officers. Thus our inouitor system, supported by the marine rum, commanded by enter prising officers, and reinforced by tno deadly torpedo, J In akiltul una scientific band-, will, 1 think, supply all that is absolutely necessary lor the naval share ol our coast-Icleio e, and will no lottnd efficient ior our purpose ayaiust any forrtga ir -u clans which :an reai It our coasts or enter our n.irliors.

AKPHOPHIATIONS AND (irlJIMTCtU. On the 1st ol July, 1875, the amount of the appro, priatlons applicable to the flscul year ending Juno 30, IsTii, was $18,301,731 27. The actual expenditures ol these appropriations during that period?namely, trom July 1, 1875, to Juuo 30, 1876. was $17,037,354 72, or about $304,370 55 less tbuu the whole amount. '(Tie appropriations available lor the present year, com mencing July 1, 1870, are in the aggroguta $12,d01.7t>0 90. The whole amount ol these appropri ation* drawn up to tho 1st ol tbo current mouth was $7,870,757 19. From this may be deducted the amount In tho hands of paymaster* and agents ol the government, aud the amounts refunded during tlio period ahove mentioned, which will reduce the amount of these appropriations actually expended since the commencement ol this fiscal year aud during the working mouths to less than $7,ooe,ooa Til2 KST1KATKS tor the general maintenance of the navy for the next year are $18,040,012. Tho amouut estimated lor new buildings and the repairs and improvements necessary at I lie various navy yards, slat tons uud hospital* is $2,908,6 90. I'liera is also submitted by the Bureau of Ordnance an estimate fur the sum ol $775,500, which Is deemed uccesaary to provide the proper armament for our large ironclads aud other ships now being titled for sea. This shows an aggregate aum of about $200,000 less than the amount which was asked for last year lor Iiko purposes. The Secretary says that however small tbo appropriations may be it is, nevertheless, (he duty of the department to reduce the expenses of the service upon the same scale, as far as It can be done, within the provisions ol existing laws. This It has endeavored to do, though It is not often economical nor always possible to conllnu the expenses of a mili tary establishment within Used and unyielding limit*. PAT Or OS'PICKKS. In regard to the pay of ofilcers of the navy the Secretary says that alter carelui consideration of this subject lie Is convinced Congress when they fully un dcastand it will have no real dcslro to withhold frcin any brunch of tho service the pay which would accrue to It under tho ordlnury operations of tho lawa and customs governing the uctlou of the department, uud will uul wish to deprive well-deserving ofllcers, whose lives aro consecrated to their country's service, and to whom no personal lault is imputed, of the means lor the proper support and education ol their fUmilies. a unriciKNCT KsriHATK.

Congress will bo earnestly pressed to mako Ibis provision, and If it do so ihe department will have great gratification In carrying it out, otherwise tho service and the department will have no alternative but to submit to the deticiuuey and tho roductiou which It cutuila.
