Extract of letter toa gentleman in New Bed
ford. dated
" Villa da Proya, 81. Jagc. March 81, 1890.
For the first time, arrived here on The
0Sth inst the United States ship Franklin ~,
Commodore Stewart, from the Mediterranean.
Il was an astonishing sigh, 10 the Portuguese
to witness an American ship of such complete
model and strength. Instead OF suhjeciing
the officers to the formaIities and humiliation
required Of unarmed or inferior vessels, every
indulgence was granted.
"Con,. Stewart having tbe next evening
obtained the supplies for which be entered
the port, acquainted the American Consul
Samuel Hodges, jun. Esq. that he was about
TO sail, and desired him TO inform bis Excel.
lency the Governor. General, who immediate.
ly issued orders for the ship 10 pass, but by
the negligence OF the officers charged with
communicating the order. the most distant
batteries were not apprized that bis Excel
lency's permission was granted. and opened a
FIRE upon the franklin His Excellency was
much alarmed for the Consequence, and in
SANITY sent express for them to cease firing
but before he reached, 12 or Is guns had
been discharged. and one shot passed through
her main top sail His Excelency then des
patched the Captain Of Portuguese 90 gun
brig Of war, then in the harbor, to Com. Stew
art, with an apology. The distance Of the
franklin prevented him from reaching her in
his boat. and he returned.
The American Consul being present, and
knowing tina, his Excellency was prompt in
issuing his orders for the ship TO pass, wrote
10 Com. S. at the earnest solicitation of bis
Excellency, to communicate his humble apol.
gy. and despatched the Harbor- Master with
the letter, who, alter being out all night,
returned without accomplishing his objest.
The ship having driited TO leeward, the next
morning bis Excel ency despatched large
pinnace with the Consul's letter to Com. S.
who replied, he was satisfied the firing was un-
intentional on the part Of his Excellency !;
but observed, that shot had passed through
bis ships main top sail, for which be should
demand satisfaction, and send his boat ashore
for The purpose but the strong lee current
prevented the ship from gaining to windwara,
and The wind increasing, she bore away, prob
ably for the West.In Next morning a
general order was issued, permitting any ship
Of war to leave whenever The commander
thinks proper, either by night or day. Thus
you see, a single American line Of battle ship
has effected what the English naval commah.
ders have long desired, and who have always
Inundated themselves to praying permission
