The 'Virginia Index is publishing a.. lades o
interesting sketches', by Mr: 'Titos. Chase, of
Cheitertleld, of the Life, Citsranter, and, times
of Paul Jones: .They throw much light no the ,
character of Pant Jones, add , gien,lwe'Aisitit
not,, a most'filthful account of ; the famous
tlo of hii ship, the Bon Houirae.Richerd,' with
the Seraphs. After stating that the ships were
locked together, which was effected by Jones .
because he saw that 'to keep at at liar gear
shot, with a new:,and strong' frigate like. the
Seraphs, would never, do for such a crazy old
hulk as the Eon Flonnne -Richard; Mn . . Chase
proceeds: d:
"The working of the big guns had been
_sus
pended during the time s of lashing the ships to. ,

these were nearly mottle to rpursle— , so near

“The firing. was net rapid, particular ''on
Jones' part, for, it could do the ships'.nn hurt
encepl to knock the guns about a' little,sand
knock iff the gunwales, and occasionally . raise
a' cloud of splinters from each other's decks:-.?
Jones and his men kept a .very sharp lookout
that rharson'and his' men did: not sever' the'
ships.
,Neither of these , ships '.were &image
between wind and, water, nor could they now
be by any, use of the big guns. • Both 'had men
in the rigging doing all the tmechief they cOuld.' •
In this • kind of play, Jones had the best of
,it;.
for. his men Were more terrible, and his Spars
and yards were longer, still Pearson would not
surrender, insisted that Jones ought to. ,
Capt.•Laindais, with the Alliance, clime. up
to help Jones, ithci fired a. broadside; but of, ne- ,
cesaity it, hurt Jones as mush as itdid Pearion.
Jones immediately• cried out, “Capt. Landzis,'
let us alone; I can handle hini.H Both ships
were often on fire, and as often the fire 'eitin
guished. Had It• not beep for the men In the
rigging, this yips one of the safest seafights so
far as those on dick were concerned, that al
most ever happened—l mean after the shins
were lashed together. The Hash of the..gun°
