have relations with that empire. The dignity as well
the power Of civilized nations forbid that they
should remain indifferent spectators to this stolid
exclnsveness Of the court Of Picking. The spirit of
enterprise, active in Europe, camorously de-
mands that China should enter within its circle the
more 80 since Japan, yielding TO wiser counsels has
already determined to take that STEP.

/ have the honor to recommend Capt. Engle to your
high consideration officer who has superior in
the navy for skill and intelligence in the command of his
ship.
The admirable discipline of the crew Of the Wabash

The marines and seamen landed at Point Arenas
under circumstances of great difficulty whilst the ship in
heavy seaway, rolling her scuppers to the water.
The work of getting out the boats and arming at
tended with great labor and almost nsuperabe difficulty
yet everything done in seamanlike and skilfu
manner that it accomplished in the shortest possible
/ time without loss accident.
/ Lieutenant Sinclair, to whom Captain Engle and myself
are much indebted for his nnrng zeal and industry
pentended the general duty Of the ship and when the
marines and seamen embarked in the Fulton

ants Fairfax Beaumont, and Pauldng, landed and dis

| in number to about three hundred and fifty. .
| When these arrangements had been made, and the
broaside Of the Saratoga sprung TO bear ON the front
! there no chance Of successful resistance. sl
Captain Engle proceeded to the camp and In person
presented my letter to General Walker, demanding the
surrender Of his and his embarkation with his fol-
1 lowers and saw the flag hauled down.
To the excellent discipline and fine bearing of the Off
GERS and men indebted in the performance Of this
most unpleasant service for the exemption of all casualty
