erable indentations Officers on deck of the U. S. S. Rhode Island This proved to be one of the most useful of the vessels purchased by the Navy Department during the war. Commissioned in May, 1861, she was one of the last of the Federal warships to go out of service, June, 1865. During the entire war she was commanded by Commander (later Rear-Admiral) Stephen Decatur Trenchard. At the time this picture was taken at Cape Haytien, her executive officers were Lieutenant Pennell, Lieutenant Farquhar, and Master Rodney Brown. Other officers were Chief-Engineer McCutcheon, Captain's Clerk F. C. T. Beck, Paymaster R. Hall Douglas, Paymaster's Clerk, Langdon Rodgers. She had first been employed as a special despatch-boat for the rapid transmission of Government orders to all squadron commanders. Her speed proved so great that she was soon converted into a heavily armed cruiser (twelve guns) and sent to West Indian waters to search for Confederate privateers and blockade-runners.

t. I am happy to bring to the attention of the Lieutenant-General the excellent behavior of the troops, both officers and men, which was all that could be desired. I am under special obligations to Captain Glisson, of the Santiago de Cuba, for the able and efficient manner in which he covered our landing; to Captain Alden, of the Brooklyn, for his prompt assistance and the excellent gunnery with which the Brooklyn cleared the shores of all opposers at the moment of debarkation. Lieutenant Farquhar, of the navy, having in charge the navy boats which assisted in the landing, deserves great credit for the energy and skill with which he managed the boats through the rolling surf. Especial commendation is due to Brigadier-General Graham and the officers and men of his naval brigade, for the organization of his boats and crews for landing, and the untiring energy and industry with which they all labored in re-embarking the troops during the stormy night of the twenty-fifth and the d

criticizes the fair ones of Charleston for promenading too much along the bay. I have heard, he says, that in Great Britain the Ladies and Gentlemen choose the Parks and such like Places to walk and take the Air in, but I never heard of any Places making use of the Wharfs for such Purpose except this. Essays of one sort or another were always popular in The South Carolina gazette. Here may be found interesting notices of the various performances (probably professional) of Otway's Orphan, Farquhar's Recruiting officer, and other popular plays of the period which were given at the Charleston theatres for twenty or thirty years before the first wandering professional companies began to play in the Northern colonies. Here, too, we find in the issue of 8 February, 1735, what is probably the first recorded prologue composed in the colonies. Early theatrical notices may also be followed in The Virginia gazette, a paper of unusual excellence, edited by William Parks in Williamsburg, the

the bombardment by the navy. Of the real assaults, a correspondent of the Baltimore American gives the following account: The naval assault. From Lieutenant Farquhar, of the Santiago, who accompanied the landing party from the navy, I have some interesting particulars of the repulse of these gallant men. Flag-Captain Brutenant Preston, assistant flag-captain; Lieutenant Benjamin H. Porter, commander of the flagship Malvern; Lieutenant Commanding Lamsden, of the Gettysburg; Lieutenant Farquhar, Lieutenant Cushing, and a large number of acting masters' ensigns and masters' mates. The sailors were in three divisions, under the command of Lieutennumber, burrowed into the sand, and thus protected themselves from the volleys that were constantly poured into them. Among these were Flag Captain Breeze, Lieutenant Farquhar, of the Santiago, and others, who made their escape after dark. Ensign Dayton, of the Nereus, who had been for eleven months a prisoner along with Lieutena
