e letter from you on my return. Tear this letter up as soon as you have read it. Did you get my letter I sent by hand? Hoping that we may meet again, I remain as ever, Your affectionate cousin, D. P. S.—Please excuse that bad-looking blot. (Envelope addressed: Miss Minnie Wilcox (or Wilcore) Rodney, Miss.) United States Mississippi Squadron, flagship Black Hawk, Mount city, November 18, 1864. Sir,—Referring to my No. 2, of 2d inst., I inclose a copy of a communication dated 7th inst., from Lieutenant-Commander R. L. May, with inclosures, as therein stated, reporting the desertion of Acting-Master G. W. Glenney, late commanding the Rattler, and Acting-Ensign E. P. Nellis, of the same vessel, on the 4th inst. The Department's letter of the 8th inst., giving instructions as to the disposition to be made of Acting-Master Glenny's case, was received on the 12th inst. I have the honor to be, sir, Very respectfully yours, S. P. Lee, Acting Rear-Admiral, Commanding M<

Considering General Lee's extremely difficult environment at the time and under the circumstances it was written, I think it will be regarded as one of the best illustrations of the mens aequa in arduis to be found in military annals. After General Gordon had studied the note with the aid of our maps, I put it in my pocket and preserved it, tog

Tucker, carrying twelve guns of modern force; the latter under Lieutenat Barney, with a battery of two heavy pieces; and three tugs metamorphosed into gunboats and carrying a single gun each; the Teazer, the Beaufort and the Raleigh, commanded respectively by Lieutenants W. A. Webb, W. H. Parker and J. W. Alexander. Early in March these vessels made rendezvous at a harbor in the lower James, convenient for communication with Norfolk, and on the 7th of that month the senior officer was notified to be in readiness for action on the following day — a day to be forever memorable in naval annals. The events are yet fresh in a mind which was filled with pride and enthusiasm while witnessing them, but in this attempt to reproduce the leading features I shall verify and enlarge my recollections by liberal use of the official reports of the participants on either side of the heroic struggle. The night before the battle a whisper went throu
