ADMIRAL WAGER.-It is perhaps not
generally known, even by the reading
public, that the celebrated Admiral
Wager, Of the British navy, when a
boy, was bound apprentice TO a quaker,
of the name Of John Hull, who sailed Il
vessel between Newport Rhode Island. J
and London ;and, IN whose service he
probably learned the rudiments OF that
nautical skill, as well as that upright
honor and integrity, for which he is so
much laudcd by his bographer. The
circumstance OF running his masters
vessel over prlvaleer, FIRST recon
Hcnded him to an advantageous place
in the British navy The facts OF this
encounter, as near as | can gather them
are these The privateer was small
schooner, iuII OF men, and was about
boarding the ship oi Capt Hull, whose
religious scruples prevented him from
taking any measures OF hostile nature.
Alter much persuasion from young
Wager, the peaceabIc captain retired to
his cabin, and gave the command ol
hls ship to his apprentice. His an&'
.cty, however, induced him to look out
from the companion way, and occasion
ally give directions To the boy, who, he
perceived, designed TO run over the
prIvateer, saying to hlm, "Charles, I
thee intends 10 run over that schooner
