A LETTER FROM THE CAPTAIN OF
THE DEERHOUND.

Two correspondents of the Daily (Lon-
don) News-which, by the way, is one
OF the few English papers which mani
tests an earnest and genuine sympathy
towards our government in this strug-
gle. and which doesn't toady to seces-
sion-having denounced the part taken
BY the Deerhound in rescuing Captain
Semmes and his subsequent detention from
Federal custody, as "dishonorable," the
captain of that yacht defends himself in
letter to the News. He denies any COM
plicity with Semmes. Says that he rem
dered assistance at the earnest request Of
Capt. Winslow OF the Kearsarge, who ap-
pealed to him, "For Gods sake, do what
you can to save them Thinks that he
would have been justifable in saving
them without any request on the part Of
Winslow-"that man drowning in the
open sea ccannot be regarded as an ene-
my at the time to anybody, and is there
lore entitled to the assistance of any pas
ser by" That Winslow's request was
not coupled with any stipulation that the
prisoners should be delivered up, or he
should have declined the task. And he
says further, that when the rescued men
began to thank him, he told them, "Gen-
tlemen, you have no need to give any one
special thanks, should have done ex-
acdy the same for the other people, if they
had needed it."
We may add in this connection that
Mason wrote the captain of the Deer
hound letter of thanks to which he re-.
sponded as follows:
"HINDLKY HALL, NEAR
Wigan, June "a.
"DEAR SIR: am in due receipt of.
your esteemed favor of the 2lst instant,
and am grstified to find that the timely
aid we rendered with ihe yacht Deer
hound to the gallant captain and officers

your approval. shall always look back
to that event with that satisfaction, how
ever much we may regret the result
which necessitated my interference.
