The history and performances of thts noble ship,
which waa built in Philadelphia, must be pecu
liar pride and Interest to our citizens, and, as she
returned here about a week since, it may not be
considered Inappropriate for ns to give an outline of
her career since she was fitted* out at our Nary
Yard, In 1862. It has been furnished to ua by an
officer who has served In her. She was so well, con
structed, that although' no ship of any nation hM
endured such fire as' she passed through at various
times, yet she lies at this moment, dismantled at
the Navy Yard, not in any respect materially In’
juted, but ready for an engagement to-morrow Ifshd
were recommissioned. ;
In the early autumn of 1862, under command o!
Commodore Turner, she was ordered to the mouth*
of the James river, to await the expected coming of*
the rebel iron-clad.. “Richmond,” where she r«-‘j
malned Until January 11,1863. Prom thence she|
was ordered to Port Royal to prepare for the attack f
upon Charleston, A few days after her arrival at;
Port Royal, the rebel rams : made an attaisk upon |
the blockade forces off Charleston. Commodore;
Tfirner was ordered Immediately to that point, to j
take np his position with her. In command of the >
squadron off that city. Great anxiety wss felt by
him as to her ability to hold on through the fierce
gales which prevail there at that season, and great'
was his satisfaction and joy when he found she
minded as little the great waves of the At:
! antlc breaking over her bow as she did
the rebel projectiles spending themselves upon,
her Iron sides. She rode out every gale,; from'
the Ist of Pebrnary till the latter part of July, with
the most perfect success, rising .gracefully and
calmly, from each billow as it rolled over her, not
unlike the motions and actions of a sea turtle float
ing near the surface. On the memorable' 7th or
April, the day of the attack-upon Port Sumpter, ;
she received the concentrated fire of the forts multi-'
piled on either side of the approach to Charleston.
Por two hours and a hair a storm of the. heaviest
projectiles rained upon her devoted sides and deokj
suoh as, in the words of "General Hunter,a spectator:
outside, “ the world never saw.” Of the nine ves
sels which joined In the attack (one being sunk—the
Keokuk), every one came out of the fight materially
Crippled. Yet this noble oia craft was ready for a fight"
the next day, as she had been upon the first, having,
received no material Injury, excepting In her wood:
work, whloh did not In the least impair her fighting
condition. Her deoks had been protected by a ear
pet of green raw-hides and sand bags, upon : whloh
the shower of shot fell harmless, glancing off wher
ever they struok, only ripping up the bags,land,
scattering the sand.
In the following.month of July she again took up
her place Inside the bar; under Commodore Rowan,
when-the writer was not on board of her; but we
hsd'Continued accounts of-her engaging the batte
rles'day after day, passing through each Urns a most:
terrific fire. . . .
During the last summer she was ordered to Phlla.
delphiato.be docked,undehe sailed hence to Fortress
Monroe, to take partinthe attack upon Fort Fisher,
commanded by Commodore Radford. In the offl
olaldespatohes wo have a full account of her per
formances on this occasion, taking up-her position,
some thousand yards from the fort, and holding It
'during the, entire days and nightsofthe attaok,
pouring Hi a heavy fire throughout that eventful.
occasion, and receiving the oonttnuous flre of the
fortinreturn. . :
She is how lying at the Navy Yard, and Is well
worth a visit lrom the curious, to examine her hun
dreds of soars, whloh appear in every case as mere
Indentations, with scarce a fracture of-her armor,
anywhere. -s
We are, obliged to make this article short, and
will conclnde It by an allusion to the effect of her
appearance upon spectators falling in with her on
the ooean. Without mast or spar, moving along
like some great spur of a mountain torn away, lrom
its base, she was regarded with''awe and amaze
ment. They-gpemed to gaze upon her as something
supernatural,’or as some huge fortress whloh had
broken away, from Its moorings. Sailing around or
close to her they would Inquire In tones of eonater-'
nation, “In the name or. God, sir, what la that?”
One Inquirer said he thought it must be the devil
let loose upon the ocean. ;
She was built by the Messrs, Cramp, the ma
chinery by-the Messrs. Merrick. . Her tonnage Is
3,609,;. Her battery consists of fourteen 11-lnoh Dahl
grbhs and two 160-pound rifles on the main deck,
and two 50-pound Parrotts on the spar deok.-.' - ~

any similar request-based on equally cogent con

Earl Russell Inreply, dated Sept. 28,1861, says:
“In the first place it is undoubtedly true that the
Alabama was* partly fitted out In a British port.
Bnijas soon asevidencewas obtained that acts had
heennommlttcd with regard to that vessel In vio
lation of a British statute, orders were sent to seize
her,;.fhe, however, escaped from Britlsß.waters, in
■a state of half equipment, under a fraudulent pre
tence of making a trial Grip. Her equipment was
sdterwardß completed In a foreignport, neither Bri
tish nor American, and a Commission from the so
styled Oohfedefate.Govenunent was there, delivered
to Capt. Semrnes, her oommander, himself an Ame
rican citizen. -
'' Secondly, I have to stale that It. appears to her
majesty’s Government that the commander of the
private British yacht, the .Deerhound, In saving
.Item drownlng tome of. the officers and orew of the
= Alabama, alter that vessel had sunk, performed a
praiseworthy act of humanity, to whloh, moreover,
he had been exhorted by.the commander of the
Kearshrge, to which' ‘vCSßerthe Deerhound had, lit
the first Instance, gone, In order to offer to tee
Kearaarge any assistance whloh, after her action
with the Alabama, she might stand in need of; and
it appears, further, to her Majesty’s Government
that, under all the circumstances of theoase, Mr.
Lancaster was not under any obligation deliver
to the eapt&in .of the Kearsarge the officers and
men whom he had rescued from the waves.
"But, however that may be with regard to the
demand made by you bj Instructions from your Go
vernment that ttese officers.and-men should now
be delivered np to the Government of the’ United
States as esoaped prisoners of war, her Majesty’s
Government would beg leave to observe that there
Isno obligation to deliver up to a belligerent pri
soners of war who may have escaped from the pow
er of such belligerent and may have taken rerage
within the territory of such neutral. Therefore,
even if her Majest}’* Government had any power
•bylaw to comply with the above mentioned dev
mand, her Majesty's Government could not do so
without being guilty or a violation of the duties of
hospitality.
“In point of fact, however, her Majesty’s Go
vernment have no lawful power to arrest and dell-:
vet up the persons In question. They have been
guilty of no oifenoe against the laws of England,
and they have committed no aot which could bring
them within the provisions of the treaty between
Great Britain and the United States : for the mu
tual surrender of offenders, and her Majesty’s Go
vernment are, therefore, entirely without any legal
means by which; even If. they wished to do so, they
could comply with your above mentioned demand.
“Thirdly, with regard,to the statement mode to
the United States Government, that British autho
rities afford pecuniary assistance or supplies, or
furnish regular payment of wages to persons form
ing the esew of the Alabama, for the purpose of en
abling them more effectually to carry on hostile
operations against the United States, I have to say
that her Majesty’s Government have no knowledge
whatever of any snch circumstances, and do not
believe that there Is any foundation for such state
ments. Private Individuals may very possibly have
contributed to relieve the necessities of the persons
In question, but with .the pecuniary contributions
of private individuals her Majesty’s Government
have on power to Interfere.
. “I beg further to assure you that her Majesty’s
Government have adopted, and will continue to
adopt, to the utmost of their lawful power, such
measures as maybe effective to prevent the pro?
S nation, equipment, and outfit of any naval expe
tlon from British shores to make war against the
United States. ■
“The detention and seizure of the Birkenhead
iron-dads, and the discussion in Parliament on that
subject, suffice to show that If complete prevention
in this respset has not been attained, all that the
Govenapent of this free country can do to stop such
expeditions has been fully pertormed.
“Lastly, in expressing the regret of her Majesty’s
Government that they should find themselves un
able to comply with any application which the Go
vernment of the United States may have thought
themselves entitled to make, I cannot refrain Bom
observing that her Majesty’s Government have been
’ far more successful' in preventing breaches of neu
trality, withregard to the fitting out of cruisers to
take part In the eivU war In Worth America, than
the Government of the United States were to pre
venting the fitting out of ships of war to aid the
South American republics to their revolt against
Spain, which. Power then stood to the position of a
central authority resisting Insurrection.’’ >
MB.*ADAMS’ SECOND LBTTBB.
Mr. Adams, in reply to Earl Bussell, November
10, 1804, begs to recall his lordship’s attention to the
original allegation to his note, which was to the
effect that Capt. Semmes and his companions, after
being saved from drownlngby the intervention of a
British subject, did not reach the limits of this King
dom as a relugee claiming the rights of hospitality,
so muchas to the position of a belligerent determined
to make his escape fromcapturo or death tb a neu
tral territory useful to himself and his cause by toi- •
tiating further hostile proceedings against his ene
my in the very place where he olalmed hospitality.
“ I have,” he says, “ the strongest reasonsfor believ
ing that the time which. has passed. whilst I have
had the honor to eonduot this correspondence with
vour lordship has been[spent by the enemies of the
United Stateß, British and native-born, in fitting
out another vessel from this Kingdom, to do the
same sort of ptratloal work which the Ala
bama did until she was sent to the bottom,
which vessel has sailed from here to an
agreed plaoe on the ocean, when the same sort
ofequlpment and armament which was- placed on
the Alabama has been placed on board of her by
another Brltlsh vessel sent from this' Kingdom for
the purpose, and where were transferred Captain
Semmes and his. companions, the persons saved by
tbe alleged humanity of Mr. Lancaster, for the ulti
mate object of continuing a war of destruction of
life and property against the people of the United
States. Whether 1 am correct or not to these
statements, as yet founded only on Information of a
private character, time will not be long In esta
blishing. Should' it prove to be so, your lord
ship will perhaps pardon me if I persist In main
taining the opinion that neither was the act of Mr.
Lancaster, in saving Captain Semmes from cap
ture, humane, nor Is the aot of her Majesty’s Go-,
vejwnent to protecting him to be viewed as wholly
within the limits of that sort of hospitality which It
wonld value to any other nation if practiced
towards the people ol Great Britain.
" Your lordship is pleased farther to. observe to
ward the close ol your note, that her Majesty’s Go
vernment have been far more successful to prevent
ing breaches of neutrality, with regard to the fitting
out of cruisers to this war, than the Government of
the United States were to preventing the fitting out
of ships to aid the South American republics to
their revolt against Spain.
“ Were it expedient, at this late day, to enter neon
an examination of the relative merit of the two Go
vernments to the two very widely different stages
of their condition In acquitting themselvoß of their
obligations of neutrality under olroumstances of
difficulty, I am.not aware that anyresult which
'•might be arrived-at would have an effect to mate
rially vary ing the views that shonld be taken of the
eborcoomlsgs of either. Very fortunately, lam
saved'the necessity of farther discussion of a by
pointing oat to your lordship a circumstance which
seems to have entirely escaped your attention. What
ever may have been the deficiencies of the United
.Stales in the instance alluded to, compensation therefor
has been made to Spain, and her full and free release
has been 'given under the sanction of her hand to a
solemn treaty- Wheneverefier Majesty’s Government
shall acknowledge itself prepared to perfect the parallel
instance the example may he cited against the United
States, but not until then.
“I have now the honor to inform your lordship,
that, after a careful consideration of your note of
the S«th of September, my Government thinks it-:
self entitled to adhere to the several positions it has
heretofore assumed In regard to the patolul transac
tion In question, as these have been made known
through me .to-her Majesty’s Government. lam
further directed.to expresayon the President’s eon
eern at thefaUrire, thus'far, of tuSfesftorts that have:
been made to avert a mlsnnderstauutog between the
two countries upon a point whiohithe American
people have canee to regard ob seriously affeoting
their national honor and dignity.”

THE EAIDS FROM ENGLISH SOIL.
Mr. Seward, In a letter to Mr, Adams, dated Oc
tober at, 1884, says: “It Is my-dnty to Invite,
through you, the serious attention ofher Majesty’s
Government to the instances which, unfortunately,
seem to be multiplying, In whloh the British pos
sessions in our neighborhood, both continental and
issnlar, have been made. bsußes for hostile proceed
ings of the insurgents against this country. The
motives for suoh proceedings have-undoubtedly
been, not a conviction that material damage would
result directly from the hostile acts of the Insurgents,
but a hope that a just sense of national dignity ana
self preservation on our. part might induce us to re
sent the toleration of tho British authorities, and
ultimately, perhapß, lead that Government to take
part with the Insurgents as an open and declared
enemy of the Unites States. The Insufficiency of
the British Neutrality sot, and of the warnings of
the Queen's proclamation, to arrest the causes of
complaint referred to, were anticipated early In the
existing struggle, and that Government was asked
to apply a remedy by parsing an act more stringent
In Its character—snoh as ours of the 10th of March,
1888, which was occasioned by a similar condition of
affairs. This request has not been compiled with,
though its reasonableness and necessity have been
Shown by subsequent events.”
The Secretary, after giving the particulars ap
pertaining to. the seizure by Insurgents: of the
steamers Chesapeake, the Pnllo Parsons, mid the
island- Queen,: Ac., says: “ The primary objeot In
capturing these steamers was confessedly to release
the Insurgent officers confined at-JoHnson’slsland.
There Is reason to beHeve that-the conspiracy was
organized and set In motion by prominent Insur
gents, who have, for some time past; been residing'
m Canada for such- purposes, Indeed, this Depart
ment ban proor tbat Mr. Jacob Thompson has ac
knowledged-: that he. was oommfsslohedTand pro
vided with funds to carry teem into effect, and had
interviews with oonsplcnons members of the gang,
just before the steamers were captured.
“ It is obvious that at the time el the Informahar
rangcment between the two Governments oi April,
181 T, limiting their naval force on the lakes, a con
dition of things like the present could scarcely have
been anticipated.' The object of that arrangement
was to prevent either party fromkeeplngln commis
sion the considerable naval foroe which they hail
both employed In that quarter during the war then
recently dosed. II peace was expected to continue,
the force was an unnecessary burden to both par
ties ; but, on tee contrary, if war should suddenly
be renewed, one or tee other might, in anticipation
of teat event, have clandestinely or otherwise so
augmented its force as to Insure to it a dangerous
advantage. -
“ Believing that these were the views entertained
at the time this arrangement was entered Into, and
teat neither tee United States nor Great Britain
expected to relinquish teelr right to self-defenoe In
tee event of a'clvll war in tee territories of either,
by the limitation referred to by the Secretary of the
Treasury, as you will see from tee correspondence,
a copy of whloh Is enclosed, this Government has
chartered two propellers, one on Lake Brie and tee
other on Lake Ontario, for the purpose of checking
and suppressing depredations on our trade and
territory, in that region, similar to those above
mentioned.
“I had just prepared the foregoing statement of
the transaetion on Lake Erie, when information or
a new and equally desperate outrage on another
part-of the border reached this Department. A
band, said to consist of twenty-five desperate men,
clandestinely armed, crossed the frontier and pro
ceeded to several parties, by stage coaeb, to St.
Albans, Vermont, In the customary way ol travel
lers. At a concerted time they raised a fleece of
terror to that peaceful town, ana broke into board
ing-houses ana other buildings and carried off large'
amounts of treasure, said to be two hundred and
twenty-five thousand dollars, together with other
valuable property. As soon as the people recovered
from their surprise they arose and hotly pursued
the felons, who sought safety by returning on'atolen
horses across the frontier Into Canada.- The Cana
dian municipal agents seem to have co-operated
with the pursuers from Vermont with alacrity and
diligence. Twelve of the robbers-were arrested,
stripped of them plunder, and taken Into custody
by toe Canadian authorities. It Is also understood
that a considerable part of the recovered property
was promptly restored to Its owners. Hete the im
perfect accounts which I have received of this trans
action end. , T ■ ' • ,
“I have requested J. Hume Burnley, Esq, her
Majesty’s charge d’affaires here, that the felons
maybe detained until,alter having obtained the
exact Information which Is essential, I shall have
addressed to the British Government a demand for
the surrender of the offenders, In conformity with
the provisions for extradition: contained to the
Ashburton treaty. The subject has been discussed
to a friendly Bplrit between myself and Mr. Burn
ley, who, has received telegraphic advloes from
Lord Lyons, who yet remains In New York. I
give you a copy of the note which I addressed to
Mr. Burnley on the 2lst instant, and also a copy of
a note I afterwards received from him In answer to
my verbal request that Lord Monk, the Governor
General, shonld be [advised to detain tbe offenders
for extradition.
“-I wlßh yonto bring this transaction also to the
notice of Earl Bussell, and say to him that, taken
to connection with events of the same character
which have occurred oh the Canadian frontier, It is
regarded here as deserving prompt and decisive
proceedings on the part of her Majesty’s Govern
ment, to order to prevent the danger of ultimate
conflict upon-the Canadian borders. It is a plea
tsnt circumstance' that, making this communi
cation, we are not only able but obliged to acknow
ledge that the Canadian authority has, in this in
stanee, thus far co-operated with this Government
to faithful and diligent efforts to bring the dis
turbers of ; the public peace to due account. It is,
however, Impossible to resist the conviction that
peace cannot be reliably maintained upon the
border unless some more effective measures
shall be adopted to secure that end than'those
that have hitherto been used by both Governments.
“We knowjwell, although we have not judicial
evidence, that all the movements of this character
are set on foot by Jaoob Thompson and other dis
loyal American citizens who are temporarily domi
ciled to Canada, raid furnished with funds there for
these iniquitous purposes through, the banking In
stitutions ol Canada. It is now my duty to instruct
you to give notice to Earl Bussell, to conformity
with the treaty reservation of. that right, that at
the expiration of six months after you shall have
made this communication, the United States will
deem themselves at liberty to increase the naval
armament upon tbKlakes if, to their judgment, the,
condition of affairs^to,that quarter shall then re
quire it. And you will be oarefal to advise us of
the day on which this notice Is given. You.wiH as
sure the Earl, however, that this proceeding is
adopted only as a necessary measure of national de
fence, and not only with no purpoee or hostility,
but, on the other hand, with a desire no less earnest
than heretofore to preserve the most friendly rela
tions with Great Britain. Moreover, this Govern
ment will, in every oase. direct its best efforts
to prevent invasion of British territory, whether
by way of popnlar retaliation or otherwise.
It Is not fdr.us to indicate the means her Majesty’s
Government should adopt to maintain neutrality
on their side of tbe border. You will, again sug
gest to her Majesty’s Government that, to. our
opinion, a policy similar to that which was Inau
gurated by our enactment before mentioned might
be followed with advantage by. Great Britain to
ibe American provinces during our present civil
war. I should fall, however, to express a sincere
conviction of this Government If I should not re-,
peat now, what I have heretofore so often had oo
to say, that, praotleaHy,.the policy of neu-
S which her Majesty has proclaimed, has.
as well to the British home ports as to the
British colonies, and especially to the latter; and
that It must continue to fall more conspicuously
every day, so long as asylum is allowed, there to
aotlve agents of the enemies of the United States,
and they sue to any wajf able, by evasion or other
wise, to use the'British ports and British borders as
a base for felonious depredations against the citizens,
of the United States.
“ Nor are we able to conceive of any remedy ade.
; quate to the present exigency, bnt the recognition
by her Majesty’s Government of the just and ex-,
oluslve sovereignty, of the United States in. all the
waters and territories legally subject to tbe juris
diction of this Government. I use the word exi
gency with a oonsdlousuess of Its just effect.
“ The welfare and prosperity of the British pro*
vinces on our borders, are as sincerely desired by
us as they oanbeby the British Government; In
a practical sense these provinces are sources of
wealth and influence for the United, States* al
bthongh they are subject t» a foreign jurisdiction,
raye have proved that this Is a sincere conviction on
Irar part by entering Into relations of reciprocal
free trade with the British provinces BlmiMbss toU
rbate as the relations of free trade which, under our
Constitution, prevail between the several States of
the American Union.
' “ Thus far we have been content with these rela
tions, and probably we should remain content,
whether the colonies adhere to their ties with Great
Britain, or, with her consenVehould assume the re
sponsibilities of self-government j provided, always,
that our friendship Is reciprocated, while peace and
harmony on the border are essential to the very ex
istence of such friendship. On the other hand, we
have aright to expect that the dwellers within
those provinces will be content to fulfil toward us
. the obligations of good nelghb9rii.q9a, a? w? are ex-
pesfed to .fulfil the same obligations on our part.
Even If this Government could be satisfied with less
than what I have thus indicated, It must, neverthe
less, US admitted that, from the very foroe of cir
cumstances, peace coaid hardly be expected to pre
vail on # border which should not afford 1 Jo me com
munliles Which It divides an adequate' protection
against mutual aggression and reprisal
“ Political agitation Is aa frequent in tbd British

A liBGAX. AmoiTioir to tub Mxbbiaoe Gbbs
. homy.— The New Orleans Picayune- tells us that
“A few evenlngselnee, a gay party assembled in
' tie ‘Ghrflen District,’ to witness tha''alw4ya inte
reatlngmarriage ceremony. Tie brideelect was-u
beautiful daughter of the Crescent City, and the
.bridegroom a gallant gentleman attached to the
Government.- :s
. “ The butz qf general oonversatlonpeeullar to such
'Occasions wsasuddenly hushed when the bridal train
was' heard descending 'the, a talrs on Its way to the
j parlor:' At length "the door opened, and, preceded
bj:ODe of cbr gravest and most popular divines, the
'party was nshored In. It Included, of course, prin
; cipals, seconds, and immediate friends. The mar
: riage ceremony-was performed according to the im
, presslve service of the Episcopal OhurofiVand when
; there- was uttered the solemn and responsible an
nonncement, by the officiating minister, ‘I pro
nounce yen-man and wife;,’ one of the groomsmen,
i ‘ taking advantage of the occasion,’ seized the bride
by the hand, drewher towards him, she evidently
willing to be the recipient of h congratulatory kiss. .
But judge or the surprise and. amazement which
: lollowed among all present, when the bride, hlnsh-'
log and contused, was seen to have an ‘ Internal re
venue stamp’ pasted upon the centre or her fair
forehead, while, at the same Instant, a similar 1 tax’
appeared upon the intellectual front of the bride
groom I
“it is hardly necessary to say that all this was
done by a Government official, who is so liberal in
his construction of the revenue laws that he deems
even the sacred rite of marriage only legal when It
Is sanctioned by a revenue stamp. The 1 Insignia’
remained on the official parties throughout-the eve
ning, and the Incident has'caused considerable flat
tering among certain parties who have been recently
mauled-without the revenue stamp attached.
“It Iswellknown that a title ton pleoeof land Is
worthless without a stamp. Why should the-title to
a wife or to a husband be of 4®ss careful concern 1
If the revenue laws apply In such general terms to
all the-transactions of life, and very properly select
far impost all the products of domestic industry,
then the marriage ceremony must be accompanied
with the-fqrmula of stamps, otherwise It might be
'declared illegal, and subject the parties ■to much
'domestic uneasiness.”
