high reputation, however, which it has deservedly
acquired, is.likely to plocore for him at least a fak
indemnity, as we are assured that the 'Lords of
the Admiralty, the Na.vy Board, 'and the East
India Company, have, in testimony of their ap-
probation, taken each•as many copies its altoge-
ther amount to a hundred. We trust that all the

ollwr BOards, which have any connection with
our naval Establishments, will follow:the example,
as the work is really national, and deserves the
patronage of all who feel a sense of tree patriot -

istn, and are a.live to the honour of ourlSlavy.
As there was a peculiar excess of- vaunting arro-
gance on the part of Commodore. Ronoeas, the
American Commander of the President, and as
much illiberal abuse was thrown upon our Plan-
taganet, we shall subjoin an extract from the work
hefote us on that subject. It should be observed,
that so persuaded are the Americans that it was
,the Plantaganet, and • not the Loire, that fell in
with the President off New York, ,ghat the cele-
brated Commodore BARNEY, when in London, a
few months ago, maintained a warm argument
upon the subject. The joint declarations of Of-
ficers beloriging to British ships, at last convinced

him, and he pi:omised that as soon as lie returned
to the United States -he would expose the bragging
cowardice of Commodore RODGERS. It does not
appear that he has kept his word. It is hut jus-
tice to as gallant a crew as ever stepped on a
ship's deck; to clear the Plantaganet from the
charge : .

"The President sailed upon her third crnize,
from Providence, Rhode Island, on the sth of
December, 1813 ; and arrived at Sandy-hook on
the evening of the 18th of February : a period of
seventy-five days.
.Commodore Rodgers dates his
official letter on the 19th, and the following is
its concluding paragraph :—" From the Dela-
ware 1 saw nothing, until I made Sandy-hook,
when I again fell in. with another of the enemy's
squadrons ; and, by some unaccountable cause,
wa's permitted to enter the bay, a:though in the
presence of a decidedly superior force, after hav-
ing been obliged to remain outside seven hours
and a half, waiting for the tide."

This " unaccountable" story required some-
thing to back it. Accordingly, the following
more circumstantial account appeared in the
" Naval Monument."*

" A private letter from an officer on hoarl the
'resident states thus :—" Situations in which we
lave been placed this cruize, will add lustre to

e vell•established character of Commodore

Rodgers."—" After passing the light, saw several
sail, one large sail to windward ; backed our
main-top-sail, and cleared ship for action. The
strange sail came down within gun•shot, and
hauled her wind on the starboard-tack. We con-

tinned with our main-top-sail to the mast three
hours ; aini, seeing no probability of the seventy-
tour gun ship's hearing down to engage the Pre-
sident, gave her a shot to windward, and hoisted
our colours ; when she bore up for us, reluct-
antly. When within halt gun-shot, backed his
main-top-sail. At this moment, all hands were
called to muster aft ; and the commodore said a
few but impressive words, though it was unne-
cessary ; for, what other stimulant could,'true
Americans want, than fighting gloriously, in the
sight of their native, shore, where huncireds were
assembled 'to witness the_ engagement. Wore
ship to enage ; but, at this moment; the cutter
being discovered coining back, backed' again to
take in the pilot ; and the British 74 (strange as
it must appear) making sail to the southward and
eastward. Orders were given to haul a-board the
fore and main tacks, to run in ; there being then
in sight, from our deck, a frigate and gun-brig.
The commander of the '74 had it in his power,
for five hours, to bring us at any ttoment to an
engagement ; our main-top-sail to the mast (lur-
ing that tithe."
.

" It was," says the editor of the Naval Monu-
ment, " afterwards ascertained, that the ship
which declined the battle with the President was

the Pldntaganet 74; Capt. Lloyd. The reason
given by Captain Lloyd for avoiding an engage-

meat was, that his Crew were in a state a
Mo-. p. -232.)
" This is a•most atrocious libel upon the officers
and crew of 11. M. S. Plantaganet ; which ship
had lett Sandy-hook aboo a fortnight previous
to the arrival of Commodore Rodgtrs. Scarcely
a ship the Service was so well maimed as the
Piantaganet. In proof ot this, Captaiii Lloyd
had .a boat's crew of 27 men, taken in the Che>a-
peake; and yet nekber promises, threats, nor
ill-
usage, could induce one of them to desert: So
sensible were the Lords of the Admiralty of this
gmui behaviour of these men, that they had al
special leave granted, and the coxswain was pro-
moted. This is tire crew that the editor of
" Naval Monument" says, " Were in :4 state of.
mutiny."—N;ty, the editor of the " Sketches of
the War" clinches the whole, by stating, that
" Captain Lloyd, after returning to'Eugland, ac-
counted for his conduct, by alleging a mutiny in
his ship ; and had several of his suitors. tried and
executed upon that charge"!l
" Although the world at large, and the reflect-
ing part of the American people, treat the thi,!4
-as a, gasconading puff, it siill stands recorded
among the aichives at Washing,on, that a Bri-
tish 74 gun ship declined engaging an American
frigate. What then was the British ship which
was cruizing off the Hook, when the Presidtnt
arrived there ?—The Loire, of 46 gun, Captain
Brown. This ship chased the 'President, till she
got close in ; when Captaiu Brow), having- an
eye to the batteries at-Sandy-hook, anel.the gun-
boats which he knew, were stationed tsithiu-< de,
hove-to. The' Loire's crew, at this time, neitig
reduced, by manning prizes, to 130 men and 20•
boys,-40 of the former unable, from sickness, to
attenttr heir quartets,--none hut a madman would
have thought of 6,4litiog such a ship as the Pre-
sident. Fortunately for the Loire, Commodore
Rodgers, with all his boasting, was less anxious•
to give baffle, than to reach,. New York its
safety."
