AUtllKAI. IMRHIUtTa AKOtiXT OF
II If4 tllTORV.
Wasuiiiotois, August 27. The Navy Depart
ment is in receipt of de-pitebos from Admiral
Parrngut, dated Mobile hay, An nst 12, giving a
detailed report of hla entrance into Mobile bay oa
tbe "ih Ins'.
. He says, notwithstanding the lose of life, ptr
licnlarly in the Har'fmJ, and tho terrible dia
aster to tbe Te.umieh, tbe ronnlt of the fight waa
a g orious victory! and he has reason to feel
proud of tbo officers, seamen, and marines of tbe
siiuaJron nuder hla eommnud, for it has never
fal cn to ibe lot of an oitlc r to be thus aim ited
and thus sustained. Regular dia:iplliie w.II bfing
rren to any amount of endurance, bat there la a
patoral fear of bidden dangers, particularly when
to awfully destructive of himiaa life as tho tor
pec'o, which re'iniroi nure than diaelplinc to
overcome. , . . . .
He fays it was nn'y nt the urgent reqneat of the
rantuinsand commanding oilt.-ers that ho yielded
the Driml.hm being lhe leading ship of the line, as
tho bad tour clnv-c-Bun and an ingenious ar
rangement fur picking up torpedoes, nnd because
. V " - i.:d ln,rl.if sin. ilit tiiif ts-k Kit
in their juugmuui u.. ..b".r o ...
too much exposed.
This he believes to be an error, for apart from
tbe fact tbiitexposuic is one of the peualtici of
ruuk, in the m.vy it will always lie the aim of
the enemv to destroy the nag-hip, aud, as ap
ieured in the seqtiel. such attempt was very per
sistently niiule, but I'roi idence did not permit it
to be successful. , , . , . ,
In the course of biB narrative, the Admiral
says "As 1 bad an elevated position iu the
main rk'giug near the top, 1 was able to overlook
not only the deck ot the Hart tout, but the other
vessels of tbe lleet.
"I aitnested tbe tciriMe iDecta of the enemy a
shot and the good conduct ol the meu ut their
Kuus tHud although I bnd nol loul.t their hearts
sickened as mine did.wlieu their shiHnntcs were
struck down beside thim, yet there waa not a
moment s hesitation to lay their comrades aide
and spring ajaiu to their deadly work.
