OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE COMMANDER.
BAHIA, Oct. 13.
SIR; 1t is with great pain that l
have to report tile Seizure of the Con-
federate steamer Florida, lately under
my command.
arrived at this port on the 4th inst,
at P. NJ, to procure coal and provis-
ions, and also to get some slight re-
pairs, after cruise of sixty -one days.
Just after anchoring, q boat passing
around us asked the name of our yes.
sci, and upon receiving our reply sta.
ted that the boat was from Her Bri.
tanic Majesty's steamer Curlew. Next
morning | found that the United States
steamer Wachusett was at anchor near
us, but no English steamer; 80 1 at
once concluded that the boat which
had hailed us the evening before was
from the Wachusett,
We were visited on the morning of
the 9th by Brazilian officer, to whom
| stated my wants, and was informed
by him that he would report the same
to the President, and that until this
answer was received, we cou id hold no
communication with the shore. At
noon | received a communication
(Which was left on board the Florida, }
from the President, stating that he was
ready to receive me. AT ourinterview
he informed me that forty eight hours
would be allowed me to retit and re.
pair, but that should his chief engin-
eer, whom he would send on board to
examine machinery, deem the time too
snort, he would grant the necessary
extension. He was most urgent in his
request that l would strictly observe
the laws of neutrality, at the same
time stating to me that he had received
the most soluTn. assurances, from the
United States Consul that the United
States steamer would do nothing while
in port contrary to the laws Of nations
and of Brazil; and that he desired the
same from me, which ! unhesitatingly
gave. The Brazilian Admiral, who
was present at the interview, suggested
that l had better move my vessel in
between his ship and the shore, as our
proximity to the Wachusett might
cause some difficulty. Ny assurances

there was nothing in the hospital but
cnmphor, whisky, and q decoction Of
some kind Of bark white oak, / think.
He often expressed his regret that he
had not more medicines. The limita-
ton OF military orders Under which
the surgeon in charge was placed, is
shown by the following circumstar ce:
A supposed private wounded in the
thigh, was under treatment in the hos
pital, when it was discovered that ho
was q Major Of colored regiment
The assistant surgeon under whose
immediate charge he wns, proceeded
at once, not only 10 remove him, but
to kick him out, and be was returned 20
the stockade, to shift for himself as
we'll as he could. DR.. White could
not, nor did not attempt to restore
him.
After entering on my duties at the
hospital l was occasionally favored
with double rations and somo wild TO-
matoes. A few OF our men succeeded
in spite of tho closest examination of
our clothes, in secreting some green
backs, and with these were able to buy
useful articles at exorbltant prices
tea cup full Of -four at one dollar !;
eggs, three 10 six dollars u dozen; salt
four dollars pound; molasses, thirty
dollars a gallon; niger beans, small,

pigs, but highly relished by u.s. fifty
cents a pint. These figures, multi
piled b5 ten, will give very nearly the
price in Confederate currency. Tho
the country aboundcd in pine and oak,
sticks were sold at various prices, ac-
cording to size.
Our men, especially the mechanics,
were tempted with the offer of liberty
and high wages, TO take the oath Of
allegiance TO the Confederacy, but it
was very rare. that their patriotism.
even under such a fiery trial, ever
gave way. l carry'this message from
one of my companions to his mother /:

ceding the night fixed tor the escape,
it was announced to US that the plot
was discovered, and from our huge
pen we could see on the bill above us
the regiments just arriving tostrength-
en- the guard. We had been betrayed.
1t was our belief that spies We're kept
in the camp, which could very easily
be done.
The number in camp when I left
was nearly thirty five thousand, and
daily increasing. The number in the
hospital was about five thousand.
