It haa bee kept la taind that in the counting houae of the modern historian traditions are at a dieeount and fai ls nt a premium. The acta and orders on which the moat important meaeurcs of hia administration of the Navy rest have, therefore, beea set forth at length. They tell the tale Governor, Graham emphaaites Mr. Badger devo tion to truth ia its broadest and high eat meaning, and to trifle with it for the purpose of making the world think him ether, tbaa he sraa would be an im pertinence to his memory. In a service of len years In the Senate, whenever Naval' matters were under dn cuaaion he took an active part in it, end tbe proceedings show that his views were sought and his opinions deferred to. There could hardly bo better proof that he acquired grct rouge aud vast quantity ef informatiow as twthe theory and practice of naval administration, and that he held it at the disposal of hia brother Senators. This made him anthoritT. If hia connection with1 the Navy had been pf that pcrfunetory character which the ultra holding of the Seeretaryehip render unhappily pos sible, whea he lecam a legislator he would not have been su,etivai.s associ ated in the public mird ith his for ner dignity lirorrt E.

The main feature of his plan waa to make good tho doctrine of defease as opposed to tho doctrine of aggression, and to carry abroad an unmistakable guarantee of tho country's commercial rights. In his report of May 29th, submitted to the session of Congress called to meet on the last day of May, he brought forward the policy, and committed the administration, to it,, of a greater Navy, a better Navy, and a Navy primarily for home defense. This is what ia meant by hia proposal to establish a "Home Bquodrou." a "sufficient supply of suit able munitions" and "a reorganization of the Navy to fit H to the changing methods of construction and propulsion." Tbe "home squadron" proposed by him grew to be the Atlantic fleet of today; the prime aceessity for abundant ord nance and education In its uses is the preparedness advocated today; the re organization of the Navy ia its en lightened and enlarged adaption to what has been found to be best suited to Ha purposes. The report is not only torn prehensile, hut suggestive. Its state ments of the needs of thif branch orf the service were the arguments whic,h secur ed the adoption, at least of its mowt material recommendations, before 'that Congress adjourned, and as it would lose in attempt at rohdeusatioa, it snswers the better purpose tos submit It in full n ri ) "It is presumed that Congress will scarcely be willing to give attention to general matters unconnected with the objects for which the extraordinary ses sion of that body was convoked, yet re cent events induce me to bring to your notice, with a view to the action of Con gress, two subjects as northy of present consideration. The first is the establish ment of home squadron. While squad rons are maintained in various parts of the world for the preservation of eur commerce our own shores hsve been left without any adequate protection. - Had a war with Great Britain been the re sult, aa it was at one time generally feared, of the subjects of diffleulpy now in a course of adjustments between that power and the L'niU'd Ktats, not only would our trade have lusn I is Me to great interruption, BOif uV 'orvrlftanta to.greut lostes abroad, liirt a naval Torre, comparatively, small might, on our very J shores, hav sdzd our"jmcrcliantlis"1 sna msuitca our ring, without suitable means of resistance or immediate re taliation being at tho command 6T the Government. To guard egainat apehf g result, to be ever roa.ly to rejn( tr promptly to ehr.stise acereasroris nimn our' own whores, If is ncccswry tliar a powerful squadron should be kept afloat nt home. This measure is recommended by other considerations. There is no situation in which greater skill or sea manship can be exercised and acquired than on the coast of the I'nited States- and in no service would our officers and seauien leconie more thorough iuitiated in all that ia necogsnry for the nation al defense and glory. Ia that service, aided by the coast survey now in prog ress, a thorough acquaintance would be pained with osir own acaronvt, extensive but imperfectly known, the various ports won Id Ik- visited, the Uys, inlets, and harbors carefully, examined, the uses to which each could be made available during war either for escape, defense, or annoyance, be nwortajned, and the confidence resulting from perfect knowl edge would give to us, hat we ought surely to possess, a decided advantage over nn enemy on our own shores. Should it be thought desirable that snch a squadron be put in rommiasion im mediately, and kept constantly on duty, an additional appropriation may be a nee ssnryt-for the nwnnt 'mvTffiu well as the forces deemed proper to ! employed- I beg to refer to the ac companying repo't on the subject.' t- pared under my djrctioo, by the BosJJ oi .mo y Loinniisatonera "The attention of Congress has been heretofore earnestly tgriwd fb the .ale tat of owr ordnance and ordrfhce storra, and I deem It worthy of itumeliat'csV sideration. A sufficient supply of suit able arms and munitions of war ia in dispensable to the successful operation of the bravest offiWrs and men, gad taken not from the nature of the ease, but provided upon a sudden emergency. Sailors may be hastily collected from our commercial marine, ships may be purchased, but ordnance cannot be sup plied on such an emergency, nor can some of the materials for the prepara tion of ammunition be procured either by purchase or manufacture re. Heaee the ordnance should, by a timely fort night, be provided in advance aad mate ria la be secured, from which a supply of ammunition can he speedily prepared. The accompanying report f roan the Board of Navy Commissioaars shows the smonnt of expenditure which will be required under thia head. Should the object be deemed of sock Importance and urgency ss te require the immedi ate attention of Congress, I reepeetfuirT r ..-commend that aa appropriation of eae- third of the est ins ted amount bo new made. The opinion seem to hare become' general, as well la the nerviee aa la tho nation at mrge, that a thorough reor ganization of tho nary ia demanded be consideration connected with the defense aad honor of the eOrrntry. aad a thia opinioa I heartily eonewr, . Yet I am fully a war that aay pin for thia far- pose should be the result of the nrnat careful deliberatioa, snd that it be at once unwise aad injurious to snbmit to Congroaa and tho country any proposed arrangements which should Ix- liable to tbe charge of haste and iuconsideration." To have rested on the oars of recom mendation might rune argued a very enlightened grasp of the work to t done, its scope and its magnitude, but it would have been sn incomplete per formance. The new Secretary proceed ed hot-haste to impress his views on Congress. In the House, Henry A. Wise, Chairman of the Committee on Naval Affairs brought in the bills carrying into effect the aew policy ; he had as com mittee associates Mallory of Florida, afterward Heeietary of the Navy of the Confederate Btatoa; Clifford of Msine, afterwards Mr. Justice Clifford of ths Electoral Commission, Mr. Htsnly of North Carolina, and other notable men. Ia the Henate, Mr. Mangiim, afterwards its President pro tempore, was Chair man of the Committee on Naval Affairs, aad guided these bills to a eae aad successful passage.

From this source can le obtained the real view of his'" relation to tie department itself i In oae nf his ewrl'rev letters he exhibits his jealyury of the Nsvy't dignity and t.ia hostility to influence which could affca-t Its morale. He was not a Jurist nrncl head of the Admiralty only for place aad power, but the tone of hia letter show that he became a sailor of the sailors. The politics, even of those halcyon daya. was aot above burrowing iuto the Navy. Complaints were ms 'e to him that the navy yard in New York had beea made use of ia an election. He at oaee addressed a letter to Captain Mat tnew . Calbraith Perry, a brother to Commodore Terry, which is such a com plots exposition of tbe attitude of the Navy to Such pernicious practice and his eondeni nation of them that it is even now a precedent muck respected, after notifying Captaia Perry that he had appointed him to the command of tho navy yard from confidence in his ability to discharge delicate duties, aad that the appointment had not been sought by aim either directly or indi rectly, aad railing hia atteatioa to the eojaphainta a boat politics being allowed to ooatrol its operations aad influence thereby freedom of slertioas, ho sBys: It ss deemed alike a seea ry to tho hoaor of the Navy aad to the welfare of the) eoaatry that thm evil should bo eointsed, aad froa yea I. feat assured that as eoantenaaeo will bo given to a system allks lajoriooa aad disreputable W tho Berries.

I request therefore that the changes may be made. It ia my earnest desire that nn person in the service shall be either the better or tho worse off. in con sequence of his political opinions merely that he shall feed himself at per fect liberty to exercise the elective franchise according to the ilirtntea of hia own judgment and corif n nce, and that ao agent of the government shall be allowed to impose any restraint upon him for any party pr political purposea, and that it be made manifest that aa the Navy belongs to the nation, so its stations, are established, their officers appointed, their laborers employed and their whole Operations directed solely for the honorable and rflirient service of the country."
