DECATUR.

The United States National Magazine
for September, in reviewing ii book called
"Baiiles of the British Navy, 10y Joseph ALI
en-, a task which implies only pointing OUT
glaring mlstatements, Tells an anecdoie of the
immortal Decatur, which, TO US at least. is
new. 1t seems the Englishnan, in the pIen-
litude of his assurance, !ntimates that Decatur
was mistaken in the identity of The Maced-
oman, and that he tried to escape when he
discovered the command of Capt. Garden.
TO show the absutdIly of such romance, the
Magazine tells the following anecdote:
before the war, Captain Garden and the
Macedonian were al Norfolk; Decatur was
there, too, and a warm intimacy soon joined
in friendship two kindred hearts. While dis
cussing naval affairs one day, Garden said,
Decatur, your ships are good enough, and you
are a clever SET OF fellows; but what practice
have you in war? there's the rub. One of
these days we will probably have a brush to-
gether, and if catch your ship at sea, | will
knock her into a cooked hat, Stephen .Will
you,' says Decatur;'I UiH bet you hat on it,
Tine bet was agreed on, and the conversation
changed.
"But a few months elapsed ere the war
that had been threatening commenced, and
the two captains, by some singular coinci-
dence, met. The result of the action are
known. Capt. Garden, on going on board
of the United States, was received bya lieu
tenant at the gangway, TO whom he rendered
his sword. Not to me, SIR said the officer,
sbut 10 the Captain Sand where is the Cap
tain?' said the embarrassed Englishmap. He
is Standing aft there: that is the gentleman,
sir, in a tarpaulin hat and round Jacket
"Carden went aft, and his feelings on meet
ing, under such circumstances, hisold friend
may be imagined. As he offered his sword
TO Decatur. that officer said, mo, Garden; |
never take the sword of a brave man; you
have fought CALAMITY But said he, lay
ing his hand on the others shoulder, Il will
take that hat, my dear fellow
sin transferring TO the United States the
suite ofCapt. Garden, a fine band was inclu-
ded. In the afternoon, when dinner was an
nounced in the cabin, Capt. Garden, said
TO Decatur, those musicians are very skill
full, and | have always had them on deck
while at my dinner.' 'Very WE'LL said De
caatir I'VE will have them up The band was
ordered on deck to play, and Com. Decatur
was asked what air he would like to hear.-
Let them play Britannia rules the Waves,
said he, with a SLY laugh"
The low spite which characterizes the En-
glish nation, always prompts them to calum-
Mate a successful enemy. We have seen
phamphlels which were written in England
in different languages, and circulated in i'm
mense numbers on the continent of Europe
many years ago, the object of which was TO
prove Napoleon a personal coward, and such
rubbish was not without its effect.-N. r
Neics.
