A THRILLING INCIDENT.

a thrilling incident Of kind rarely expe-
rienced in these times of national peace oc-
Cured on board the United States steamship
Mississippi during her recent cruise on the
coast Of japan. On the 7th Of October, 1853
the trigate arrived of the entrance Of the har.
Dor Of Nagasaki. Before leaving Hakodadi,
intelligence had been received Of the Difficult
ties between this country and England, grow
ing out Of the course Of the English cruisers
in boarding American ships in the Gulf, and.
50 strongly convinced were the officers Of the
Mississippi that war existed between the two
nations, every preparation was made TO meet
the ships Of the enemy, supposing any might
be lurking about the harbor Of Nagasaki,
awaiting theirapproach. They did not mean
to be caught as the Mississippi was, in the
war ofI8l2
At nine o'clock in the afternoon, sail
was discovered standing out Of the harbor, in
fighting trim, under topsails and iib-running
before the wind The strange sail was at
once conjecmred to be an English frigate
standing out, to give battle, andin moment
all was commotiOn on board the Mississippi
The crew were called to quarters, the guns
were cast loose, loaded with round shot and
shell, and trained upon the supposed enemy,
the boarders were armed with pistols and
cutlasses, the decks were covered with sand,
70 drink up the blood Of the dying, cots were
brought up to receive the wounded and the
surgeons were in readiness To operate, in
case their services were required. Pow
der boys ran hither and thither, and
everything on board bore a warlike appear
ence.
The strange sail, much larger ship than
the Mississippi, approached rapidly Every
man stood BY his guns. The lock-strings
were drawn out, and the men awaited IN
breathless silence the approach of the stran-
ger, determined, If she was beligerent, ~
give her one broadside at least The flag 81
the approaching vessel being concealed be-
hind her topsails, it could not be made out,
but as she neared the port bow ofthe Misss-
sippi, it was found to be the stars and stripes.
Every one drew long breath Butjustthen
the flag was hauled down, which induced
the fear that the stranger had played q y7tsc
de gue1re upon the Mississippi, in order 90
take her. Every man again sprang to his
gun, obedient to the order, Train the guns
upon her" But the American flag was again
run, and it was soon discovered that the YES
sci was the Y. s., steamship Minnesota, bound
for home. From her they learned that the
expected war had all ended in smoke. The
retreat was beat, the magazines closed, and at
ter exchanging greetings, the irisate
stood on for her anchorage at Negasaki
Boston lrareilcr.
