THE GALLANT oAPT. BoeGs, U. 8.
NAVY, oomMANDING U. S, STEAMER
"coHhEorIoUT"
The services of this meritorious officer
are too well known to the country to re-
quire eulogiEing; but the following is
worthy of that gall liant old sailor,
Capt. Boggs sailed in his ship from
Boston on the oath of February last and
arrived at the anchorage at St. Georges,
Bermuda, on the 9th of said month; aud
to inform our countrymen what means
are used by Queen Victoria's subjects,
particularly as regards neutrality, we give
the following The pilot informed Capt.
Boggs, that the Governor of the Island
required all, to anchor Federal and Con.
tederate vessels at certain anchorage.
The American captain directed the pilot
where to anchor his ship. On the follow
ing morning along came a John Bull
gunboat with message from his Excel
lency, the Governor, to get up anchor
and go to Grassy Bay, as he was not
anchored in the proper place for Federal
or Confederate ships. The gallant Capt.
boggs did not return him verbal message,
but In gentlemanly reply informed his
Excellency, that his was not Federal or
Confederate ship, but man.of.war Of the
United States of America, and that he
anchored at his own discretion. John
Bull did not send any more messages
during his stay at the Island. So that
night the captain went to sea.
The reason for the message, no doubt
was, that when the Connecticut" an
chored, there were four blockade runners
in the harbor, who, no doubt, were await
ing favorable time to run out, and had
the Connecticut" been anchored at
Grassy Bay, the distance would have
Afforded an opportunity for them to
escape. 1t is to be regretted that Mr.
Seward had not known this fact, as he
might have alluded to it in his recent
remarks in his speech at Washington.

ETono Of the most. horrible events
Of modern times has lately occurred In
Japan, illustrating the depravsd snd
burbarouS sentiments yet prevalent In
that country. Tie JSpansIO mode Of
Furnishing the ViolAtSrS Of Law, involves
the wholesale destruction of tho proper.
ly Of the criminal--hia entire house,
hold Of servants and goods. Recently
the Prince Of NOgatO Oigned promise
nnder treaty, 10 pay stipulated sum
Of money, which he refused to discharge
ct the Designated time, and, in cOnGS'
quencs, one Of tho Japanese Courts has
subjected him to the punishment Of hsv-
ing his two palaces utterly destroyed,
and four hundred and thirIy.fVo Oerv
ants consigned to a cruel death. The
Tycoon and Mikudo. the temporal and
spiritual rulers Of Japan, sustained tho
verdict Of the court under which this
horrible penalty was inAictad. This IN.
stance Of barbarity hos no parhllsl In
modern times, and it seems to Ne that
by Christian nations. 10 pre-.
vent similar occurrence, would be jus.

dent entreaties, in causing her TO con
