The First "Ironcladn Rnttle.

Perhaps the nearest to correct YER
sion OF the battle between the Confeder-
ate ironclad Virginia and the Federal
turret ship Monitor. written by a North
ern author, is that OF Admiral David ID.
Porter In his forthcoming book entitled
"The Naval History OF the civil War"
Although bis narrative lie not entire
ly unbiased, too much weight be-
ing given 20 reports OF the fight
which are in tone at variance
with admitted facts, II sets forever at
rest the claims recently made that the re.
suit OF the historic contest was a great
victory for the Monitor. The most that
Admiral Porter claims is that
II was drawn battle, but be shows that
the Monitor was the first TO retreat aud 10

not follow; that afterwards she took par

Baltimore several years agi, aud just before
he was to begin his discourse Tie newspaper
man, who had been cent to report the address,
inquired n an otf-haBd way:
'Well, Or. ! almage, are you going to give
us many points to night?"
''Pniuts?" repeated the clergyman.
"Pointss"
"I es," replied the reporter, ''you won't get
much space TO- morrow unless your lie .ture is
lull OF good points that the paper can't afford
to leave out"

Frederick Aubin's Funny Secret.


Frederick Aubin, tall and mysterious, stood
before Judge Moore yesterday in the Brook
lyn court OF sessions for sentence. He threw
a BRICK through the $3.50 plate glass window

gave himself up to pOlicen an, He was IN

guilty. When asked as to his motive for
smashing the window he said ne would not
make II public, but he had no objection to
telling Judge Moore in private. He did go,
and hls Ho or keeps the secret locked within
his capacious bosom. When the Judge ia
questioned on the subject he smiles and "a! 6

A very strong circular letter has been
sent to the authorities of the South Attain
tic States by the committee that is
charged with the duty Of collecting infor-
nation for the use of the harbor conven-
ton that meets in this city on Nov. %.
The purpose Of the committee is to get
all the information it can respecting the
depths of water in the South Atlantic har-
bors, the improvements that have been
made, and are now being made,
in them, the results obtained from
these improvements, the amount Of terri
tory tributary to the South Atlantic ports,
the amount of commerce of thes
ports, the benefits which would come to
them from improved harbors, and other
matters Of general interest connected
with the subject of harbOr i'm movements.
This Information will be arranged so chat
it Will be possible to see at glance how
important it is that the work of improv-
ing the South Atlantic harbors shall be
pushed forward much more vigorously
than is being done at present.
or course the commute depends largely
for this information upon the authorities
at the various ports Interested, and has
no doubt that it Will be willingly
furnished. Self-interest, il nothing
else, should insure the prompt
forwarding Of all the facts that are nec-
essary to a full understanding OF the needs
of the different harbors.
The prospects for full and enthusi-
astic convention are very promising. The
responses that are being received by the
committee In charge of the undertaking
are In every resnact salisfantnrx

| Monitor over the Virginia, and that she
did not slnE her unwieldy antagonist was
without doubt due TO the fact that her
officers were not posted as to the weak
| points of the Virginia and did not handle
| their guns with any creditable degree oil
skill. This theory is supported by the
! fact that not a shot fired by the Monitor
| did any damage of consequence, although
her great guns were often fired at pistol
range, and the Virginia's large port holes
were entirely open. and her hull below
] the water line, as well as her propeller
and rudder, unprotected by armor. The
officers OF the British and French men-of-
war present saw the fight from beginning
TO end, and it is said that the reports
made by them to their respective govern
ments ascribe the victory to the virginia.
SO far as the mannuyrng of the Monitor
is concerned, it seems to be admitted that
it was admirable up TO the time Lieut..
Worden was wounded.
No book can rise to the dignity of his
tory that is not the work OF true histo-
rian. No account of the late war between
the States, or any part Of it, perhaps, that
Z
vestigation has yet been written. The
works that have been published as his
tories must be considered as Of more or
less value in furnishing materials 10 be
weighed and sifted by future historians,
to be freed Of artisan and sectional bias,
unwarranted assertions, aud undue praise
and censure. The object of all history is
the recording and preserving OF the truth
concerning current events for the benefit
Of future generations. 1t is hardly possible
that history Of the late civil war can be
written until the principal actors in it
ana their too partial friends and too bitter
enemies shall have passed from the stage
OF life.
Admiral Porter's account Of the first
battle between ironclad warships will be
valuable to the historian, not because his
testimony is that of an eyewitness, for it
is not, but because he collects the evil
dence obtainable with certain degree of
impartiality, although his judgment does
not appear to be altogether in accordance
with acknow lodged facts. 1t is to be re-
greet ed that Admiral Porter and other
writers. while they are so Just and cOur-
teOus as to allude to the celebrated iron
clad as the confederate" vessel, can not
20 a step further and call her by her Con-
tederate name of "Virginia," instead of
calling her the "Merrimac," which was
the name Of the original frigate before be-
ing burned by the Federals, the hull of
which was raised and used in the con-
struction of the celebrated war-ship.

A Georgia Farm Exhibit.

1t is not claiming too much tor Mr.. W.
o. Wadley when it asserted that his ex-
hibit at the Macon fair was the biggest
and best part of the exhibition. IL occu-
pied about quarter Of the first floor OF
the agricultural building, but it might
have been better if the entire floor had
been given to Mr.. Wadley. The exhibit
comprised vegetables, fruits, sugar cane,
pickles, preserves, wines, jellies, butter,
lard, cotton, and several varieties OF
gram. The cotton exhibit was in the
form OF a bell which overhung a
house built OF sheaves OF different cereals,
and was intended to illustrate the idea
that the farmer, having provided himself
with all the necessaries OF life, might ben
cultivate cotton. All the articles OF the
exhibit were the products of Mr.. Wadley's
farm at Bolingbroke. Monroe county, Ga.
In addition to the articles already men
toned Mr.. Wadley exhibited samples of
the native woods Of the State.
The products OF bis farm, however,
were OF themselves worth visit
to the fair. If such an exhibit Of the re-
sources OF a Georgia farm could be made
at the American exhibition, TO be held
next year in London, 1t would doubtless
do the State great deal of good. Mr..
Wadley possesses the same energetic
character and practical turn Of mind
that his father, the late distinguished
Col.W. NJ. Wadley, did, and, like him, be-
lieves that success depends more upon
the man than upon the opportunity. Good
farming VIII pay well In Georgia rs else.
where, and poor farming will not pay
anywhere.
