The ironclad Merrimac which har-
assed the Union feet, and was herself
finally disabled by the Monitor, made
during her first unquestionable triumphs
a victim OF the frigate Congress. After
the fight had continued for some time,
the Merrimac was so fortunate as to take
such a position relative to her enemy
that the destruction of the Congress be-
game only a question Of moments.
Her commander was slain, she had
been repeatedly set on fire, and her decks
were covered with dead and wounded.
She was accordingly run ashore. and
there hoisted the white flag.
The Merrimsc now sent alongside two
tugs to take possession and remove the
prisoners, but these were driven back bv
a sharp firing from the shore.
General Mansfield had directed the
Twentieth Indiana to deploy along the
beach, behind a sand ridge, and two
guns were wheeled into position to pre-
tent the enemy's making away With its
prize.
Captain Reed, who was as good a law
yer as soldier, raised a question Of mill
tary law.
Since the ship has surrendered. said
he, ''has not the enemy the right to take
possession Of herr
Then General Mansfield uttered one
of the shortest and most conclusive opin-
ions on record

said ne, ''but we haven't"
That settled it. Unable to take pos
session Of the prize, the Merrimac opened
upon her with incendiary fire and then
withdrew. The remnant of the Union
crew was brought on shore, and that
night, when the fire had reached her
magazine, the Congress blew up. That
lightning decision had at least saved her
crew.-Youth's Companion.
