About a fortnight after Captain
Blakely had left the Enterprise that
vessel captured the British brig Box
ex, carrying two guns more than' the
American vessel carried. The crew
that had been disciplined so tho
roughly by Blakeley won the fight.
On May 1, 1814, the Wasp sailed
from Portsmouth, N. H. The crew
consisted of 179 persons, all ineluded.
They were" mainly raw recruits. The
"Wasp carried 22 guns. She sailed
directly, for the, British Channel.
Capt. Blakeley at once awakened
the admiration of his countrymen
and the anxiety of the Britishers. In
a short time he had captured thirteen
merchantmen, and two sloops of war
-r-AheiJ5eindeer and the Avon. The
vigor, resource and enterprise dis
played by our daring, gallant,
able Korth Carolinian excited the
7 highest- hepes- for bis future. The
official accounts of his naval engage-'
ments we&'blislied at the time in
all the papers. In the fight between
the Wasp and the Reindeer both
crews behaved splendidly. The of
ficers in command exhibited the high
est bravery. It was the first fight of
the crewjof fthe-Wasp. Short as was
the time that- Capt. Blakeley had
been drilling them their discipline
was excellent, and they fought with
a coolness and courage worthy of
the-most tried veterans. Capt. Man
ners of the Reindeer was killed in
an attempt to aptxrfe the Wasp by
boarding her. He was terribly
wounded, being hit in five places.
The Wasp lost 5 killed, 21 wounded
total 26. The Reindeer 23 killed,
42 wounded total 65.
James Fennimore Copper, in his
"NaVaXHistory of the United States,"
does full justice to this1 fight,- and
accords the highest praise to Capt.
Blakeley. In fifteen minutes after
the fight had ended Blakeley was
ready for actum again, such was his
self-possessibn, promptness anddash.
He sailed to L'Orient, where be had
his vessel repaired. He sailed again
August 27th, and in three days de
stroyed three brigs, one each day.
The last,. was. captured t at.rmicli risk.
He cut her Out actually rdm under
the charge of a frigate of 74 guns,
the Armada,and a Bomb-ketch, which
were convoying her.' It was a very
valuable prize, but Blakeley was com
pelled tq siteiier, gfoon ifjer this he
came up with -three aloops-of-waraone
of which he sunk See Mies' Megis
ter, December 3, 1814. The vessel
captured was the Avon, and her com
mander, -Capt. Aarbutbnot,was wound
ed severely. The Wasp lost 2 killed,
1 wounded total 3; the .Avon, from
40 to 50 killed and wounded.

further, that he was spoken early in

TTiere was hews oJ theVasp on
November 10th or 12th, to the effect
that Blakeley "was in the act of set
ting fire to an English vessel," when
seen, and that he attempted toj get
into Tybee, but was chased off by the
Lacedaemonian, a British frigate.) On
the 20th of November a British
cfrjgatej walseei1 off $tf$ U5leston
Lighthouse about sunset. Another
British ship, on the 20th or 21st,
Was seen off the? cty, fi Charles
ton. ' On' the 2 1 st heavy' firing was
heard. It began at 10 o'clock in th
morning, and lasted for four hours
It was -believed confidently in
Charleston that a naval fight had ta
ken place. Capt. Parker, of . the
Beaufort Packet, reported firing fiph
Monday, the 21st, fifteen miles out
at sea, arjd said it ws an .engage
merit ,' -between twcTheavy Vessels.
Others reported that they saw the
action. The vessels began fighting
off the coast and continued Until they
were out of sight. The Charleston
papers of that time contained much
evidence to show there had heen an
engagement.. It is altogether proba
ble that in this fight, against great
odds, the Wasp was sunk, with all
on board. There is other evidence
to show that this ii the. probitole so
lution of the matter, but We cannot
go into it. There, is but little,doubt,
in-oar own mind,-that th&brave and
able Captain Blakeley met-Ms early
death on" Monday, Novjanjber 21sty
1814, in that terrible sea, fight, with
a vessel three times his weight, and
that he and his gallant crew all per
ished in the "deep sea incarnadine."

ANOTHER GUNCE AitBELANO,
The outlook in If elarid within a ..
few days has become mor& favorable
for a successful executioijof the Land
act. It is apparent that . a large and
influential portion of thd people are in
favor of giving the act a fair test.l
The resolute purpose" manifested i by
the Government to put down all law
ti&i&if&ftsA, jgCi&.inabitity
of the Irish to make a!;successf.ul
revolution have induced thousands to
yield to the necessities of the hour
and to accept, a trial of the Land
act- the besfthey oP4tfiVaer the
circumstances. Mr.. Gladstone has
got the advantage so far as the Eng
lish are concerned, for tbey:eem to
regard the present attitude iff the
Government, ; arbitrary and ' oppres;
sive as it is, as justified by the pecu
liar circumstances.' 'The iTories re
joice in seeing the'great liberal lead
er driven to resort to their old, long
tried methods, relics- of theMiddle
Ages; whilst ttie greater part of the
Liberals bow to -what they? oonsider
an imperative noeessity. sUifey echo
their leader's voice in thfl opinion
that it is "a question betwden law
and chaos." : .'
In the meantime a great blow has
been given to the pretensi6nijf Eng

We recognize the factjthat in a
iciest beween law,however bad,
and . lawlessness,, Jio we ver provoked
by oppression,, the former occupies
the vantage ground, and this the
'Premier well 'understands. In his
speech on Thursday he said :
"The point was whether Ireland is to be
governed bv the laws made by Parliament
or by laws known to nobody, and written
nowhere, except in the brains of a few per
sons, and enforced by - tin' 'illegal, arbitrary
and- self-appointed association, which
sought to override by organized attempt
the free will of Irishmen."
He has insisted that the Land law
was good for Ireland, and would
prove an inestimable blessing if tried
fairly. :He says Ireland asked for
the law and now when it has it
declares it will not have any
ffn 4 Such : at f,( least
is the
attitude of " the leaders. This
gives him the advantage. Parnell

pathize ' yihi ft hfj oppressed. The
Irish leaders may go wrong in the
way of 'excess, but Americans know
it has been a long struggle between
the oppressor and oppressed. Ire
land does not faVor British rule.
Ireland wishes to be free and inde
pendent. The true Democrats of
the United States the lovers of lib
erty will always hurrah for the
weak in the great wrestle with the
strong. England under Liberal rule
may be willing to do something for
the amelioration of Ireland's wrongs,
but this ought not to be done by the
freetksei:of tyrannical laws and the
bayonet. It is impossible that South
ern Democrats shall ever sympathize
with bad laws and bad government
as against the down-trodden and the
despoiled.

CUJtHEKT COMMENT.
Guiteau, the demoniac murderer
who fired the deadly shot at Presi
dent Garfield, is, like Mr. Edmunds,
an ultra Republican. He says.: he was
divinely inspired to kill the President
in order to reunite the quarrelling
factions of the Republican party.
Except by this murder, he could not
see any other means of keeping the
Democracy out of power.- So far as
pan be gathered from their public ut
terances, Guiteau and Edmunds seem
to be about equally irrational regard
ing the results that might follow from
the restoration of the Democracy to
the control of the government.

, If any Southern man of uo-minence-ha
thoroughly eaten hum
ble pie, and earnestly begged pardon
of the INoTth "for having been "an
erring brother," that man is General
Longstreet. When he was in New
Orleans holding a "fat" Federal po
sition during the dark reconstruction
days when Grant attempted to pin
that city down to the ground with
Federal bayonets, - there was no
amount of zeal required to enable
him to successfully carry out his de
signs which Gen. Longstreet did not
show. . Whenever a negro procession
was to parade the streets an honor of
any event due to the conquest of the
South, General Longstreet was al
ways ready to prove his sorrow for
his rebellious acts, and, at the same
time, to rub salt in the smarting
wounds of his white fellow-citizens
by riding at the head of the column.
L And, indeed, so thoroughly was he
mixed up with the Kellogg admin
istration, with all its usurpations and
infamies, that when the usurper was
lorced, in tear and trembling, to seek
tor refuge from the wrath of an in
dignant people in the United States
custom house, General Longstreet
fled with him. Savannah News,
