Promotions in the navy.

--We understand that Commanders Lee and Whittle have been promoted to the rank of Captains — Captains ‘"for the war."’ From this we gather that it is the intention of our Government to establish something of a Provisional navy, and under that impression take leave to protest in the strongest terms against any policy which has a tendency to dwarf the growth and development of this important arm of our defence. It is a vast mistake — a most serious error, to suppose that either now or hereafter we can dispense with a large naval establishment.--Norfolk Day Book.
