Situation.Washinoton, D.C., May 16\u2014An order posted this morning and signed by Secretary Long, relating to the publication of news emenating ftom the Navy Department, had the effect to-day of considerably curtailing the supply of information that heretofore has been rather freely given out.The Secretary\u2019s order was directed to Capt.Crowninshield, Chief of the Navigation Bureau, and he in turn gave it effect by making an order in his own name that no person connected with his Bureau, in any capacity, should have any conversation whatever upon subjects in any way pertaining to the navy with representatives of the pres*.As an offset it was ordered that bulletins of suoh fact* as have actually occurred and are proper for publication and are not connected with existing or projected movements, shall be prepared and ported on the bulletin ooard.The sum total of the information published by the bulletin board to day under this rule was a notice ot the intention to start the Philippine relief expedition and of the permission given to some foreign neutral vessels to pass the blockade at Havana.In explanation of the isane of this order, the naval authorities say that some of the leading American newspapers have been so far lacKing in patriotism as to print plans of campaign and projected movements of naval ships, with the result that the War Board has been obliged to completely revise its plans, in the knowledge that the Spaoiah had promptly taken notice of the publications and were prepared to profit by them.Complaint was made to Secretary Long that the newspapera were working injury to the Government in such oasea.It is not the purpose of the Secretary to prevent the press having any information that is not calculated to cause a miscarriage of the plans of the Department, but it remains to be seen whether the naval officers to whom the order has been directed will not, by their ironclad interpretation of it, bring about a modification iu the interest of liberality.The opening of the blockade at Havana to certain vessels is a rather curious prooeediog that may lead to a very considerable widening of the blockade itself, so that in the end the neutral vessels not loaded with contra-band or supplies, the carrying of which into Havana would interfere with the naval and military operations of the Goveromeot, may pass the blockade under suitable regulations aid down by the United States.The statement that th« Navy Department still hopes to make au exchange of priaoners at an early day, shows that the mission of the \u201cUaca*\u201d was by no means a complete failure, as has been stated.The troops going to Manila are to be prepared for a six monthp\u2019 stay, according to the number of rations furnished, 2.160,000, and preparations for ttajr departure are being pressed with the ' greatest energy.The \u201cCharlestnn\u201d should have sailed to day from San Francisco.\t* Intimations have been (received here that Captain General Blanco is very short of amunition, in which case the powerful batteries at the entrance of Havana harbor of coarse would be deprived of a large part of their defensive strength.This statement of affaire niay lead to some desperate attempts at blockade tunning op the p*rt of the Spaniards ip the hope of getting more amunition into Havana.It is believed that the supplies so frequently referred to as being on the Spanish flying squadron were of this character, rather than food supplies, which makes it all the more important that Admiral Sampson and Commodore Schley should succeed in keeping Admiral Oervera from reaching Havana or Cienfuegoa or any port in Cuba connected with Havana by rail.Commodore Schley is well down on the Florida coast now snd should be able to guard the Florida Strait* by tc-morrow or next day.H» appearance on that side of Cuba ^ ^ would enable Admiral (dampeon to bring bi*| Giy wIth Spsin.iron clads with perfect safety to Cienfuegos'\u2022\tJ\u2014 on\tthe south side, and with this disposition of the naval fores and the free use of a considerable number of soouliog vessels, it is hard tq see how the Spanish fleet oan

excess of $5,000, resorted to the expedient of splitting up the work into yearly sections, in order to be able to have the work done by day labor.The Opposition vigorously attacked the Minister of Public Works for having violated the law in this regard in order that he might find work for the small army of nsedy Liberals who had to be provided for at the Capital.The next contentious item which was struck was that of $17,000 for the maintenance of Ridean Hall.Mr.Monk objected to this item as altogether too large.In Montreal, which was a more expensive city than Ottawa, large establishments were kept up on half this sum.Hon.Mr.Tarte, answering those abjections, said that so long as he was the Minister of Public Works he would not see the Governor-General pul in a hole, and that h® would tee the representative of the Btitish Crown at least properly housed.The expenditure had been pared down as low as was consistent with the dignity and requirement* of the position.Mr.Monk said the

Roy, do to A Belanger, do to G C Scott, do to Hudson Ba^ i Two of the articles in the collection the public at large were cot permitted to see, because they never pass out of their owner\u2019s control.One of these is a gold match safe, twenty-two carats fine, containing matches placed in it by Mr.Webster himself.For years it has been the custom, at the annual dinner of the Ancient and Honorable Artil lery Company, to light the two candles in front of the commander with a match from this safe, and from these comes the blase which kindles all the cigars smoked while the speaking ia in progreas.The propriety of thus linking the present with the past at these meet ings uf the oldest military organisation in the country was the happy thought of the possessor of this beautiful example of the gold smtih's ait.The other at tide, which i guarded with equal care, is a large, white handled knife, of ingenious design and curi ons workmanship, presented to Mr.Webster by King Louis Philippe of France.Its only blade ia between four and five inches in length, and is intended for the killing and cleaning of fish.There is also a peculiar contrivance for the removing of scales, and what is more remarkable, the handle contains a tiny spring balance for the weighing of fish In the forties, while yet a king, Louis st nt a request to Mr.Webster for bis picture, and the gratified statesman had his portrait paint ed at a cost of $800 and sent, with his com pliments, to his royal fritn-l.There were alto to be seen in the cabinet which hang in the Pierce lodge two amcles of peculiar value, because they matk one of the most important epochs in the relations of the United Staten and Great Britain.Oue is silv-ir dog whistle, otrried by Lord Ashbur ton at the time of the memorable j >urucy of the two Commissioners over the route which now forms the boundary line botween this country and the British possessions, when the famous treaty was agreed upon which settled so satisfactorily the mooted question of Great Britain\u2019s rights on this continent.Before Ihegentlemen patted, his lordship presented Mr.Webster not only with the whistle, but with a small wooden brandy keg, hooped w.th wicker bauds, and with a mouthpiece which is protected from unlicensed lips by brass lock.Another article io this interesting collec tion is a pocket scale capable of weighing fish or game to the amount of 170 pounds.Ii believed it has never been duplicated ia this country.Not much amaller, but more geoteel in appearance, is a German ailver scale for weighing fish, also of equally small propor tiens and ingénions design, a silver drinkio flask and a silver cigar case combined, an tiro ptyner plates parried by Mr.Webster op his numeroas fishipg and hunting excursions ia Plymouth county, are not the- least ia teresting of these mementoes of the great man and his simple and manly tastes.The pair of antlers which occupied a conspicuous place over the door of the lodge were once worn by a buck which fell a victim to Mr.Webster\u2019s skill ss a marksman when hunting in Plymouth woods.They were presented by his son, Col.Fletcher Webster, to Mr.Hassam, who gave them to Mr.Wallace Pierce.The whole collection is one of great beauty and haa a value independent of its close and intimate association with the life of the greatest cil.zen of Massachusetts.The articles 3otnp3sing it were the accompaniments of his {tours of relaxation and ease, when be bad aid aside the cares of office and at his charm ing and beloved Marshfield followed the brooks snd tramped through the forests calling his dogs with the whistle, drinking from the flasks, eating from the plates and kindling his campfire with the matches he carried in their golden safe.It is impossible to conceive of anything more symbolic of the simplicity of the grand mind that never lost its touch with nature than these relics of the chase.\t_______________________ The Emperor William ia going May
