PRIYATEERING.

To The Editor Of The Wig:
Are we giving up privateerng9 Practically we seem
to be; and It giving up one of the most formidable
means Of harrassng the enemy.
If volunteers on land can be organized and used as
regular arny why cannot volunteers on the be made
to supply the place of navy. Regard them "mita
men on the seas and govern them accordiDgly. there
be danger Of private armed ships dcgeneratng into buc
caneerl-ihc only danger the great maritime powers
pretend to fear and aim TO guard against in their at
tempt to abolish prvateeriDglet them be governed by
proper naval laws and regulations.
Why not assimilate them to naval ships? Let them
be regularly commissioned, and such from the
chant service be put on boird sas GERS, shall be
found competent in rautcal kaoxledge aud experience
as well as intelligence and cha,aser If there be any
peculiar virtue merit n naval i,ors let sui oent of
them be put board In proper capacities Ia gunnery
and naval tactics, these would be desirable il not iods-
psnsabe. Many merchant ans jas: brave have
tie high dignity and honor, and much ia,elli-
gence and sagacy, regular naval Officers ard they
would be likely to 40. conformaby to the high cha.
acr, which glad and proud to see our Goyernment
assume, and strive to maintain.
Why then shouli there not be regular board OF ex.
amner and regular commissions issued to those found
to be thoroughly competent and naval officers placed
on board such crafts as far proper-in command, If
necessary Such vessel', regularly commissioned,
though set ta,a by private capital would be, virtually
