n full uniform. I was presented to them, and when this little ceremony was over we all went to Cozzens's, where all were presented to the rest of the Board of Examiners. The Board then went to a room by itself, and was called to order by Commodore Bainbridge, and General Houston, being the chief military personage on the ground, was chosen President; though for the rest, he is a pretty coarse Tennessean, who tries to be kind, good-natured, and even elegant. . . . . The other members are pleasant enough, particularly the three commodores, Bainbridge, Chauncey, and Jones, who are very agreeable indeed, and Colonel White of Florida, who proves an amiable, gentlemanlike man. We went forthwith to the examination, which was extremely thorough. Thirteen young men were under the screw four hours, on a single branch, and never less than four on the floor, either drawing on the blackboard or answering questions every moment, so that each one had above an hour's work to go through; and, as

war, the old South furnished more than her proportion of troops. Southern troops flocked North, and, in the battles in Canada, a large number of general officers were from the old South: Harrison, Scott, Wilkinson, Izzard, Winder, Hampton, Gaines, Towson, Brooke, Drayton, etc. Kentucky sent more men for the invasion of Canada than did any other State. All honor to the United States sailors of the North, who had no sympathy with the Hartford Convention, and nobly did their duty— Perry, Bainbridge, Stewart, Lawrence, Porter, Preble, &c. The Don't Give up the Ship of dying Lawrence is a precious legacy to the whole American people. But the unmaritime South claims, among the naval heroes of that period, Decatur, of Maryland; MacDonough, of Delaware; Jacob Jones, of same State; the two Shubricks, of South Carolina; Jesse D. Elliott, of Maryland; Blakely, of North Carolina, etc. A very large proportion of the naval heroes of the war of 1812 came from Maryland. In the Mexican war,

e House (7 stories high) was filled with people, who with glasses watched the course of the Chesapeake down the harbor. During that afternoon and night the public excitement in Boston and the neighboring towns was intense. The streets were thronged with people all night, and the air was full of rumors. It was only too certain that a sharp, desperate fight had taken place, and that both frigates had sailed out of the harbor, instead of coming in. The next day, to calm the public mind, Com. Bainbridge requested Mr. Knox, the pilot, to publish a statement of what he saw after leaving the Chesapeake, but it gave no satisfaction. No action in the war of 1812 occasioned greater mortification to Americans, or more exultation in England. Capt. Broke was welcomed home with great distinction, and knighted. (He died in 1840.) The Chesapeake was a clumsy, unlucky old frigate, built at Baltimore or Norfolk in 1798, and had always been a source of trouble and expense to this country. From

his march on the morning of the 27th, and was advancing along the railroad, while Streight was bearing southward in order to reach Russellville. The former was in hope of drawing all Roddy's attention to himself, thus enabling Streight to pass behind him unperceived. This plan would have succeeded if the Federals had had only Roddy and his twelve hundred men and four guns to cope with. But on the morning of the 17th he had been reinforced by the six hundred men that Forrest had sent to Bainbridge, and had posted his forces behind Town Creek, a small stream which empties into the Tennessee near the rapids called Muscle Shoals, where the fords had been entirely submerged by the recent rains. The Federals had reached the opposite side during the evening, and on the morning of the 28th they attacked Roddy's strong positions. But Forrest, by a night-march, had reinforced the latter before daylight, and Dodge met with such a stubborn resistance along the whole line that he soon gave
