The Daily Dispatch: July 23, 1864., [Electronic resource], The Alabama and Kearsarge. (search)
The Alabama and Kearsarge. The Yankees have not done writing about the tremendous exploit of the Kearsarge in sinking the Alabama. The Paris correspondent of the New York Times writes an extremely Yankee letter to that paper, dated july 5th. We copy a portion of it: La France, a paper which receives the inspirations of Mr. Slidell, says that on account of his shattered health Capt Semmes is soon going to the springs of Germany, and that his 1st Lieutenant has been recommended by the Captain to the Confederate Government to take his place on the new Confederate vessel which is soon coming out. The commission of the new commander cannot, however, arrive before the end of this month. La France does not state, of course, where the new vessel is to come from, but it is almost certain now that the two frigates which were built by M Arman have gone definitively into the hands of Prussia; so that if the successor of Capt Semmes does get a new vessel, it can only be in England.
