A Roy Hero.

Our readers will probably recoect the circnm-
stance OF lad on board the Harriet Lane exhibiting
uuusual courage in the 6ght that took place on the
deck of that vessel, ending in her capture on the
morning Of January 1. He was then erroneously
stated to be the son Of the lamented Commander
Wainwright, and subsequent to the correction OF
that mistake. during the temporary interest excited
by the affair, several gentlemen offered through the
medium of the public prints, to Subscribe sums oil
money for hs education and advancement in life
Whether anything came Of this we are unaware:
that the subject is every way worthy, the following
particulars derived from the paroed officers OF the
luekless vessel may testify:
The boy, Robert Cummings, is OF Scottish parent
age; his aQe IA years. His father was machinist
who died some years ago in Paterson, New Jersey
his mother, a poor washerwonan, resides in Phils-
delohia in part supported by half of her sons wages
duly RENTED to her, since bis employment in the
Navy. Robert was engaged AS messenger boy
on board the Harriet Lane, and won the goodwill
of her officers by his pluck good humor and vyscty
When the attack occurred and the storm Of bullets
was pouring down upon the overmatched crew from
the cotton bulwarks OF the Neptune and Bayou City
as our wounded men We're carried below, the lad
pieked up two of their fallen revovers, and taking
his place upon the quarterback, blazed away at the
invaders, firing off every charge of both weapons
and then hurling them overheard. AS the Rebels
clustered thick as bees the cotton.baes, in the
words of our informant, "eyery shot must hsve
told" Robert was subsequently wounded in the
hand, by Il musket.bulle, when momentariy biz
spri; gave way. Surrendering with the rest, be-
shared TIE fortunes of the paroled officers, naturally
becoming great favorite with them, and messing
at their table during their journey through the in
terror of Tcxas to be conveyed to New-Orleans via
Red River. The lad ID now on board the Kensing-
ton, at that city. In the words of his friends and
,des, the officers, something ought to be done
for him."
