UariRc MtcAigcnce.--Pr Presidential Fieet-rhe
Massachusetts ship Hartford Convention, Daniel
Webster, commander This is an easton vessel
chartered by the surviving tories ofthe Revolution to
sail for Port Presidents her is composed OF recl
less prize hunters of all descriptions: and during the
waroflSI2 she hosted blue lights aid and comfort
foreign foe; and on account ofthis base act many
view her with suspicious eye. From her mizen
peak floats large flag and on 1t in legble charac-
tcrs are Inscribed take of the rich AMI the rich
will take OF the poor; various ilags hang from all
parts of her rigging, bearing the mottos despo>m,
executive usurpatons, the union of the purse and
sword some suppose these words are intended TO
trghten the crews of other vessels but the ma or-
ity Judge them to be the workings of the weak
ina gnation of the Commander of the Federal ship.
This craft never a tavorIte of the Jolly tars
of America; she has sailed 80 long in the waters
of arstocracv, that her bottom is corroded, and
in 1885, ii is probable she will he condemned as
unscaworthy. If her wealthy and opnlent owners
had not used their influence upon her captain, she
never would nave hosted sail unfolded her ban
ner to the breeze in her rash expedition to Port
President.
Western ship Tennessee, Hugh Lawson White,
Commander This craft is built of live oak: for
many years with generous enthusiasm, she sup
ported the staunch ship of the line Old Hickory
that fought so well near the coast of Louisiana
but of late years she has forgotten the P0-. from
whence she formerly s,Iled and fllsiied those
principles on which she recently fought and con-
qucred This vessel has one large gun amidships
called Executive Patronage, and the report of this
piece OF artillery acts like Il charm upon the mind
of the gallant but infatuated commander of the
Tennessee Desperate and unavang efforts have
been made by the Navy Department to rescue
this craft from her infamous aud deuded voyage
to Port President, but from last accounts her
BILE had parted, and she was rapidly drifting upou
the sands of notification; guns of distress were
fred but the report of executive patronage cannot
save her; the waves of popular Indignation had
made terrible brccches in her sides, and her con-
sort the ship Apostacy brought that if another
reinforcement of men was not sent, she would foun-
der between the rocks called duty and iIl-timed
ambition.
Kentucky ship American System, Henry Clay
ommander-This ship is remarkable for the ease
and beauty of her motion and her works of Inter
nal Improvements are by no means bad. This craft
has lain off Port President since the gallant frgate
James Madison made her triumphant entry; the rea-
son given hy some for the American System not en-
tcring the harbour is, that her commander keeps
not in view the light house termed popular opinion
and the result is her disappointed in their
ardent expectations. During the vessel
served her country better; but since that glorious
day her commander has attempted greater fcats, and
maddened Ivy repeated losses, he blazes away in
cessanty at the good ship Hickory the plea of her
sailing in unconstitutional water but old seamen
declare that the American System has an nveterate
grudge against the old Hickory, because she has
been safely anchored hy noble and patriotic crew
in Port President for the last eigh, years but the
commander ofthe American System listens to neith-
the dictates of reason the calm voice of public
sentiment. According to last accounts he had hauled
down his flag aud refused to sail in company with
the Federal Hartford convention ship but this was
only from the impulse of the moment. She now
lays stranded upon the banks regret, beating upon
the rocks Of blasted ambition.
