In October last he was transferred from tbe U. 8. Ship Wolverine, which ciuised on the northern lakes during the spring and summer and most of the fall, to the U. 8.8. Dolphin, at Washington. After he was transferred to the same tbe snip sailed to New Yoik and remained there about a month, returning to Washington about three weeks ago. He says tbe Dolphin bas been completely renovated and improved and although she has been In the service more than twenty years, looks as good as new. That the new Commander Is very popular and tbe ves sel one of the finest in the navy. Ensign Irwin has had almost constant service since he graduated al Annapolis, serving ou different vessels, along the Atlantic coast from Florida to Nova Sco tia, aud was about two years in the Chi nese and Japanese seas and the Philip pines. We understand the Dolphin is one of the most beautifully equipped ships In the navy, and is much used by (lie navy officials, as she is a fast sailer and excellent vessel. We are pleased to bear from our friend, the promising young naval officer, who is a credit to bis native state aud the service. It may interest some of our citizens to know that Ensign Irwin has with blra the famous old Pete Couver violin, which many of our citizens remember, and tbat he is a violinist of considerable ability. With it he can relieve the tedium of bis voyages and entertain bis comrades with "concord of sweet sounds," Our Alumni.
