Federal (ion-Boat in a Tight Box Haw the Florida Dodged the St. Louis A Confederate Tessel Be - trayed bj A Spanish Official. (Petrol t Free Press.) One of the most embarrassing sita ations possible for an armed vessel ttd flud herself iu occurred to the Fetleral snm-boat Marblehead in Stono River. South Caro lina, in DecemlfCr. 18G3. At Charleston I found two men who were in. the party attarking the znn-boat, and how slie escaped them is a mystery which aggravates tbenr even yet. . , THE SITUATION. 9 JtSa M 4tehead. ra.s rat anchor mvflfttifittle hamlet of tiegreeville, three'oi'foftr miles from the month of the river, aud had kept that lo cality clear of Confederates for many flays past. She lay within nistol shot of the bank, and on the morningbf the attack no one had a suspicion that there was an armed Confederate within five miles of the spot. Daring the night a com mand numbering about ICO men. having' A : b.ittery or, live pieces. made a mirch of sixteen miles to strike the river where the gun-boat lay. ; One of the guns broke down on the march and was abandoned, and the Confederates ' . were thns left with'Only four field i pieces to match the six heavy guns on board the Federal. : "IU" POSITION. The Confederates took up posi tion in the woods near Ihe hamlet their gun being in battery and everything seady ibt the attack two hoars tefore daylight.- The entire body, were so close to the gun .boat that the lookout could, be heard talking. ' The apparently careless watch being maintained on board the vessel led to a plan to capture her as she lay.- Two Confederates, one of whom was named York, and the other Williams, threw off their clothe j on the bank above"the gun boat and swam out to her, each car rying knife in nis teetn. Xbe idea was to board her and ' kill the men- oh watch and then quietly signal for additional help to come on. - ai r. Williams 'Was the first oft", and had almost reached the vessel when he felt a ; cold nose touch ' his leg. He thought of alligators, sharks, and a dozen other , things, like a flash, and was so unnerved that be scarcely had strength, to turn and reach the shore. Whether it was a piece of drift wood or some reptile which touched him, he had no means ' of knowing, but the inci dent- so-cooled his ardor that be would nos take to the water again. ..Ybrk reached the gun-boat with out adventure, and while hanging to the rudder he beard the lookouts walking and talking and realized that they were too wiae awake to en able him to carry oat bis plan. One of them saw bis ripple in the water , as he ., swam away, but thonght it was caused by a fish. The Confederates could have easily affixed: a torpedo to ' the Marble- bead's stern, bnt the party had not come provided wit h anything of the kind oon alter 4o dock tue aarkness began to thin out, and by a quarter past the gunners could plainly make out the gon-boat before them. rTwo or three men wre seen mov ing aboatieta deeks, bat it was etidentrthaf th attack would be a grand tsnrpTise' "party - to all on board. AS" soon ;as jaayiigut was strong enougli -to-' enable the gun ners, to sight their pieces the fight began, the first shell passing over the hull,, and so near the head of the officer or tue watcu tnat ne dodged and fell flat. IN A BOX. The gun-boat had an anchor down and was without steam enough to move her. While the crew were tumbling up and rushing to their Stations, the majority of them only half-dressed and some without hats or shoes, the Confederate battery had everything its own way. Shell after shell struck the gun-boat and for ten . minutes she was perfectly helpless, having no steam to move and none of her guns bearing on the battery. It aeemecUos if the gun-boat mast surrender or go to the bottom, when she raised up steam enough to move her slowly. The cable was slipped, and as the vessel swung round she opened with her broadside on the battery. As she did so, she had two men killed at one of the guns, and almost the next shot took the top of a man's head off and carried it clear of the Rhip. CLOSE FIGHTING. ' Each moment gave the Federal more steam and more speed, and when she had a full head on she ran as close to the bank as possible and worked every gun which would bear. The Confederates stood square up to the fight, their guns being in sight and without protection, and for nearly an hour it was give and take, without tliucing. In this time, at least twenty shot and shell were lodged in the hull of the gun boat, knocking down bulk heads and smashing state-rooms, and she had three or four killed and half a dozen wounded. ON SHOEE. 'After the Marblehead got up steam and was able to move she kept up a steady fire with her heavy guns, and it seems wouderful that every Confederate on shore was not an nihilated. The shells from the eleven-inch guns shivered trees, cut off limbs, and in one in stance threw a cloud of dirt over one of the guns with such force as to drive every man from it. Be tween the Confederate guns and the river was a strip of marsh, and where a shell fell short and ex ploited in the soft ground black mud and dirty water were thrown clear over the tree tops. There was a detachment of Feder al infantry at Legreeville. but any movement which they might have made was checkmated at the start by the position of the Confederates, liad the Marblehead fought less valiantly, the Federal infantry would have been gobbled up. In deed, had she not fought as she did she would have been captured herself. DRIVEN AWAY. For more than an hour the fight continued with the greatest spirit on both sides; but then another gun-boat was seen approaching from the inlet, and the best gun in the shore battery was at the same Mme dismounted bv a shot from the Marblehead. Fearing that federal forte would lie landed zo cut off their retreat, the Confeder ates cave up the fight and left in such haste that the entire battery- was abandoned, it being impossi ble to bring a horse np under such a tire. It was not only a lucky escape for the gun-boat, but the bravery of the Confederates in planting a battery as they did and maintaining a fight for an hour and a half against big odds could not be overlooked. Their loss was only one killed and three wonnded. a privateer's escape. From the beginning of 1864 to the close of the war the Federal Govern ment, made the most determined efforts to wipe out the Confederate pnvateera. and these craft found little safety. In'the Atlantic In this year no one could longer donbt how the struggle would . terminate, and the Confederates began to 'lose their. welcome wnen they appeared in a neutral port. . xt iihm ueen as serted by men who were la position to know, that orders were . issued to the commanders of vessels in search of privateers to use every . fair and unfair means for their destruction. Consuls were instructed to coal or refit or ship men, and in this way to drive them from port to port, On several different occasions 'Fed eral commanders were accused of evading the neutrality , of ports in their eagerness to get some advan tage of a privateer, and daring 1864 the8ecretary of. State . must, nave been kept pretty busy ' in making explanations. In February the privateer.; Flori da ran into Madeira for coal and re pairs. TheTederal man-of-war St ix)uis was tneu lying in the roads. and her commander and the Ameri can Consul at once interviewed the Governor of the island and en tered protests against allowing (be Confederate to remain longer :tban twenty-four hours or coal ior a cruise.'' '' '' . 1 ' . ' A BTIFF GOVERNOR. The year "previous Madeira bad extended every courtesy to Confed erates, and was even anxious to aid privateers. - But when the r Florida ran iu she discovered a change of sentiment. The star of the Southern Confederacy, was on the wane, and the privateer was warned to leave the port within twenty-four hoursJ When she came to the docks for coal she was refused a pound more than would take her to Cadiz. The offer of double price, as well as all attempts to bribeunder-officials, resulted in tlisappotntmentr The Florida wanted eighteen men to fill her complement, and also needed repairs, but she could not enlist a i, and was not given . time to bring the talkers and carpenters aboard. PREPARING A TRAP. Acting under the advice of the Con sul, the commander of the St. Louis would have violated the neutrality of the port had he felt himself more than a match for the privateer. While he depended on his sails the Florida hkl both sails and steam, and in the event of a fight, would have won a victory. The St. Louis then sought to shift her position so as-to get alongside the privateer and either carry her by boarding or box her in until the twenty-fpur hours had expired, but the wind was contrary and no steam vessel could be induced to take a towline to help along the plot. cat and mocse. As the best thing she could do nnder the circumstances, the St. Louis secured such a berth that the Florida must pass close to her in going out, and it was the intention to follow her to sea and engage her. The Confederate knew t what was going on aboard the Federal, and realized that some sort of game would be played during the night if the Florida remained in her berth. To put to sea was to invite an attack, bnt as soon as night set in the privateer made ready. All the lights aboard were extinguished, the vessel shifted her position to throw spies off the scent, and when midnight came all was ready for the run to sea. Aboard the St. Louis the guns were shotted, look outs stationed and the crew ready for the call to quarters. SAFELY OUT. It was adark,nasty night, and when the privateer was ready she went ahead at less than half-speed, guns run out and men at quarters. She passed the St. Louis within a stone's throw,and there was a minute or two when the striking of a match aboard of the Confederate would have been the signal for a broad-side. An hour after the Florida was clear of the island the news of her escape was carried aboard the St. Louis and created mnch surprise and dis appointments. , There was scarcely a foreign government which did not make millions of dollars profit out of the Southern Confederacy, and there was not one which hesitated to be tray her when occasion offered. Irish Wit. ' If it1 is true, as an old proverb says, that "He must have a long spoon that must eat with the devil," it is aNo true that he must have not only a long but a nimble tongue who ' encounters an Irishman in a war of' wit: ! A one-legged Yankee orator : named Jones was pretty successful in bantering an Irishman, when the latter asked him, "How did you come to lose your leg!" "Well,'' said Jones, 'on examin-1 ing my pedigree and looking up my descent, I found there was some Irish blood in me, and becoming ; convinced that it had settled in left leg, I had it cut off at once." "Be the powers!" said Pat; ' would have been a better thing it had settled in your head!'' LffJISLATITE PBOCHEWINGS. (Con.leiiHed from News-Otenror.) EIGHTEENTH DAY. SENATE. REPORTS.

By the same, bill to amend chap ter 116, laws of 1881. ' CALENDAR. Bill in regard to sale of liquor on Sunday was taken from the cal endar for consideration. Mr. Womack said as the law now stands liquor dealers were not al lowed to sell on Sunday; and that the object of the present bill was to prevent the giving away of liquor on Sunday. Mr; Morehead favored the bill and said he thought it would do a great deal of good in the way of preventing the subterfuge of giving away liquor on Sunday, for it was very easy matter now for, the barkeeper to give drinks on Sunday and to step . around Monday . and get pay for them. This bill would havejhe effect of keeping the bar rooms, entirely closed on Sunday; as, they should be, and it ought to pass. Mr. Loftin moved to table the bill. Mr. Morehead called for the ayes and nays; the call was sustained, and the motion to table waa lost by 27 to 15 votes. Upon motion of Mr. Watson, the bill was referred to the judiiary committee. Bill to restore to attomeys-at-law their fees in civil cases, the special order for 12 o'clock, was put upon Its tnird reading. Mr. Morehead ottered a substi tute, which in effect accomplished the same, but was . worded dif ferently. The substitute was a.lopted and the bill passed its third reading and was ordered engrossed. Bill in regard to the dividing line between Craven and Carteret counties was informally passed over. Bill to amend chapter 141, laws of 1876-77, in regard to the office of country treasurer, was taken np for consideration. Mr. McLean explained that the chapter referred to above gave the county commissioners power to abolish the office of treasurer and place t he duties of that officer upon the sheriff, nnd that the effect of the pending bill was to give the commissioners power to pay him for this service in such cases as much as 1 per cent. Mr. .Battle sent forward " an amendment making the pay 2J per cent, instead ot li per cent. Upon motion of Mr. Loftin the bill and amendment were recom mitted to the judiciary committee HOUSE.

' ; " 1 ,i Mr. Stanford mov&l to amend by striking but the amendment to sub mit to a vote of the people, and stated that the gentleman who represented Lenoir county ran on that issue and was elected, and that he was supposed to know what his people wanted. - Mr. Page stated .that he lived near that section of country: and that the citizens of both political parties wished this : lawi and he thought it onght to be'passed with out submitting it to a vote of the people. Mr. Dixon, as an individual, op posed the law, but the people in that section wished it and he hoped it would pass. i Mr. Bledsoe said that it was the first time he ever heard both Dem ocrats and Republicans advocate a minority; that if a majority of the people wanted this law why not let them vote for it. He was satisfied that no man who advocated a mi nority rule would ever be governor of this State. Mr. Holt was opposed to the mi nority ruling, but it having been made an issue in the campaign in the county of Lenoir and the repre sentative from that county having been elected on that issne, he re garded it as a sufficient indication of the will of the majority, particu larly as it was a Republican county and had sent a Democrat to repre sent it on that issue. He therefore favored the amendment of Mr. Standford. Mr. Bunn did not speak to the merits of the bill, but to the amend ment proposed; he was in favor of Mr. Stand ford's amendment, be cause if the provision to submit remained it would in effect kill the bill. Mr. Bledsoe called for the ayes and nays on the amendment, and the call was sustained. The vote on the amendment to strike out the part submitting to the people was as follows: Yeas 70; nays 38. The bill as amended then passed. On motion of Mr. Standford, the vote by which the bill passed was reconsidered, and that motion laid upon the table. TWENTIETH DAY. SENATE.

The hour for the special order having arrived, the following was announced as the special order for this hour: , Substitute for an act to establish tweve judicial districts in North Carolina. Mr. Bailey, ;of Meeklenburg, thought the bill ought to pass, be cause from the increase of litigation it was impossible to transact the business of the courts with nine judges, for they were all worked down. The increase oi litigation demanded it, so that the people might have their rights adjudi cated. Mr. Powers, of Cumberland, was in favor of the passage of the bill be cause he thought that it was needed by the people of the whole State, except in few small counties, and by it the Inferior Courts could be got rid of. Mr. Bledsoe was in favor of the bill on account of the crowded dockets in the State, aud exhibited a calendar of Wake court to show the state of facts in that county. Mr. Worthington thought it was a want keenly felt by the people, and that the law-makers ought to trive them redress, and spoke of the crowded dockets in his own and other counties. Mr. Gilmer waa sorry to oppose his friends from the East, but that he would not be doing justice to the people ot his county it he did not oppose it: his county did not need it. Mr. Myers thought special terms of the court when needed wonld be sufficient for all purposes. Mr. Overman was in favor of the bill because he thought it was needed by the people, and the con stitution expressly declared that the people should have a speedy remedy by trial which they did not under the present law. Mr. Holt was in favor of the bill said that ho heard no one say that it was not expedient to have twelve judicial districts. Mr. Peebles spoke at length iu favor of thejbill, explaining the need of it, and giving the objections to the criminal court system, and fully met every objection to the bill now pending. Mr. Thompson desired it to be postponed, as did Messrs. Robins and Chandler. The bill was, on a vote being had, postponed. CALENDAR (resumed.) To amend the law incorporating the town of Beaufort, made the special order for Thursday next, at 15 o'clock, and ordered to be printed. Mr. Tate reported the bill chang ing the time of sheriffs .settling with the State Treasurer, without prejudice. Hew Berne Adrertlsementa.
