Having seen the library, collection, and arrangements of the Naval 

 Lyceum, we have been much gratified, both with what is already 

 accomplished in so short a time, and with the plan and design of 

 the Institution, which is worthy of all praise. Among its support- 

 ers, are gentlemen distinguished not less for their intelligent zeal and 

 liberal views, than for professional discipline and gallantry. Visit- 

 ing, in the course of their voyages, many distant countries, they will 

 bring home their scientific, antiquarian and historical treasures, and 

 their collection may, perhaps, one day emulate the splendid Mari- 

 ners' Museum at Salem. We trust that they will receive the warm 

 patronage of the government and the country. — Ed.
