The Capture of the Florida.

The capture Of the pirate Florida having
become the subject of frequent Cabinet
meetings, and of much newspaper discuss
ion, because of its occurrence in foreign
port, the following particulars of the affair,
as officially reported by an officer of the
Wschusett, possess unusual interest:
The Florida arrived at Bahia Bay, off
San Salvador. on the 7th ult. Capt. Col
Inns, having held consultation with his
officers, determined to sink the Florida in
port. Accordingly, at about O'Clock the
cables were slipped, and the Wachusett
sieered for the Florida, hitting her on the
quarter without doing great injury. Capt.
Collins now called out to those on boari
the pirate TO surrender or he would sink
her. This demand was replied to by the
LIST Lieutenant, that under the circums tan
ces he surrendered. A hawser was now
made fast, the chain slipped, and the Flor
ida towed TO sea. In the melee several pis-
toi shots were trad, and, accidentally, two
guns from tie Wachusett.
Capt. Morris and half of the Florida's
crew were ashore on liberty. No lives were
lost.
The Florida was taken completely by sur
prise. Seventy of her men it is known
were on shore, and the others just returned,
were asleep and half intoxicated. The blow
given the Florida by the Wachusett carried
away the mizzenmast and mainyard, which
fell on the awning. preventing any one from
getting up from below. So unconscious
was the officer of the Wachusett's object,
that he sang out, "YOu will run into US if
you don't take care,' and the same time
calling for light Twelve officers and ff-
ty-eight of the crew of the Florida were
captured.
The Wachusett and Florida were to leave
St. Thomas on the Cd inst for New York.
The Florida has ran long and success
full career. Next to the Alabama, she has
been the most destructive to our commerce
of any of the rebel pIivatesrs. The num-
Der of her captures is legions, and the sto-
~ of her depredstions FERNS one of the
darkest chapters of the rebellion. Like the
q labama she seemed to wear charmed
life +; and although she was often closely
cornered. she always managed to escape.
She was fast sailer, while her armament
was quite formidable. She was for long
time commanded by the notorious Captain
MofFatt.
