 "When he got on board he walked around the ship. My people crowded about him, and he said for the first time in his life he felt confidence in . mob. His spirits seemed to revive, and he told me next morning that he had never slept better. Next day he asked me thousand questions and seemed quite initiated in nautical matters.

He told me he had been only once wounded; 1t was in the knee and by au English sergeant. He looks uncom- monly well and young, and is much changed for the better, being very stout.
