OUR COUNTRY : Plrst, Last and Torevci . TllHltK is room for more liberal dis play of lings in Slieimmlou.il. The fciiars and Stripes should llont from every housetop. Tun new olliciuls under the Ooiu iiiif.sniner.s are moving along the lnai'liinory of that ollicu so smoothly that it isdiluoult to note that changes have been made. It doesn't make much diHerc'iiee to what political party our naval com manders alliliate with. Thoy are all true blue Americans, und that ought to be sufllcient. Shenandoah has a small army of men who imagine they could conduct the war much better than those in authority. And this community is not unlike others. Stain complains that the blockade at Cuba is not olleetive, and wants other nations to consider it as such. Suppose the Spanish fleet, now play ing hide und-seek, attempts to run llie blockade. Then they will know for a certainty whether or not it is elfei'ti ve. It is pleasing to note that the rumors of Cienuany's hostility to this country are not well founded. The North (ierman Ciazette, a seiui-olll-cial organ, say there is no truth in these stories, unl adds that Uerinany has no mind to disturb her century old friendship with the United States without urgent reasons. War Ships. The distinction between battleshipf and cruisers is not generally under stood. A battleship is primarily a es-ul designed to hear the brunt of battle with the most powerful ships of an enemy's lleet. To inrft'e her lit for such work she must possess the greatest olfensive and defensive ability. Offensive ability, of course, means a heavy main battery, while defensive ability means heavy armor. Tnese two factors produce a largo and heavy vessel, which would re quire enormous engine power to drive her at u high rate of speed. Hence, in a battleship great speed must be sacrillced, because the machi nery necessary to operate the big guns, the complicated framework ) etled to give the vessel strength, . id the thicknos-i of her armor render mposible to give her sulllciently l.irge engines and coal capacity to iduce the speed. Furthermore, a li ittleship, being so limited in her ml capacity, is not expected to make 1 i,truies. Her business is to tight 1 not Tii run about. A cruUer, on i'.. ii i wry. is expected to do u great I i (raveling. She makes long and does duty on foreign us in time of pence.

Washington, Mny 17. An order post ed yesterday morning nnd signed by Secretary Long, relative to the publi cation of news emanating from the navy department, will have tlio effect of considerably curtailing the supply of Information thnt heretofore has been rather freely given out. The sec retary's order wns directed to Cnptntn CrownlnRflcld, chief of tlio navigation bureau, and ho in turn gave it effect by making an order in his own name that no person connected with his bureau in tiny capacity should hnve nuy conversation wbatever upon sub jects In any way pertaining to the navy with representatives of the press. As nn offset, It was ordered that bulletins of such facts as hnvo actually occurred nnd are proper for publication, and are not connected with oxistlng or pro jected movements, shall be prepared und posted on the bulletin board. The sum total of tlio information published by the bulletin board yester day under this rulo was a notice of the intention to start tlio Philippines relief expedition, and of the permission given to soino foreign neutral vessels to pass the blockade at Havana. In explanation of tlio Issuo of this order, the naval authorities say that some of the leading American news papers hnvo been so far lacking in patriotism ns to print plans of cam paign and projected movements of naval vessels, with tho result that the war board has been obliged to com pletely revlso its plans, in tho knowl edge that tho Spaniards had promptly taken notleo of tho publications and wore prepared to profit by them. Com plaint was then mado to Secretary Long that the newspapers wero work ing injury to tho government In such cases. It Is not the purpose of the sec retory to prevent tho press having any Information that Is not calculated to cause a miscarriage of the plans of the department, but It remains to bo seen whether tho naval officers to whom the order has been directed will not, by their interpretation ot it, bring nbout a modification, In the Interest of liber ality. The aliening of the hlockado at Hn vana to certain vessels is a rathor curious proceeding, thnt may lead to n very considerable widening of the hlockado Itself, so that in tho end the neutral vobboIs not loaded with con traband or supplies, tho carrying of which Into Havana would Interfere with tho naval and military opera tions of our government, may pass tho blockade under suitahlo regulations laid down by tho United States. Tho statement that the war depart ment still hopes to make an exchange of prisoners nt an early day Bhows that tho mission of tho Uncas on Sun day was by no means a comploto fail ure, as has beon stated. Tho troops going to Manila aro to ho prepared for a six months' Btny, and preparations for tholr departuro are being pressed with tho greatest energy. Intimations have beon rocelved here that Captain General Ulanco, at Ha vana, Is very short of ammunition, In which enso the powerful batteries nt tho cntinnco of Havana harbor, of course, would ho deprived of a large part of tholr defensive strength. This state of affairs may load to some dos perato attempts at hlockado running on the part of tho Spaniards, In the hope of getting moro ammunition Into Havana, It Is behoved that tho sup plies so frequently referred to ns being on tho Spanish flying squadron wore of this character, rathor than food sup plies, which makes It nil tho moro Im portant that Sampson and Schloy Bhould succeed In keeping Admiral Cervera from reaching Havana, Cion fuegos or any port Jn Cuba connected with Havana by rail. Commodore Schloy probably Is woll down on tlio Florida coast now, and should soon ho able to guard the Florida straits.

Tho wnr department rushed ahead its preparations for the mobilization and thorouh equipment of tho volun teer army, and the progress which Is being mado is most gratifying. The Important development of tho day was the definite selection of the corps com mnuders.

Tho United States and North Carolina yesterday presented noble tribute to the memory of the Gallant enslen, Worth IJagley the first officer killed In the war with Spain. Nothing to approach yester day's funeral pageant was ever seen here. The body arrived lato Sunday night, was met by an escort of the First regiment volunteers and taken to the homo of Ensign Ilngley's wid owed mother, where a detail of troops kept constant guard. The love of all the classes of people for the dead was shown In the stream of Callers and the wpalth of flornl trlhues. The lat ter came from near and far, and It was significant that most of them were red, white nnd blue. On the casket were the dead officer's chnpeau and sword. Among the lloral offerings which literally banked tho casket and filled nil available space In the room wero palms sent by General Breckinridge In memory of his son, thfr late Cabell RreeUlnrldge, young Bag ley's classmate. Karly In the afternoon tho body was taken to the capltol und placed In tho rotunda. A steady stream of people flowed by for two hours. The face was not exposed, It bad been reported that It wus disfigured by tho explosion of the shell, but this was inaccurate. The face woie a smile. The casket wan removed from the ro- ; tunda at 6 o'clock and placed In front 1 of the statue of Washington, where the exorcises weie held n tho presence of the faintly and the city clergy and 10,- ' 000 people, Including all the United Btates, state ijnd city officialism, mili tary, veterans, cadets and school chil dren. After the services the body was es corted to Oakwood cemetery by a monster proeostilon, viewed by 15,000 people. As the procession moved 11 guns were lrd by a battery and 11 wero fired at the jrravo. and then the two regiments' tired throe volleys.
