ness that called them to Washington.

Feat Of the Vesuvius.
CHARLESTON, s. c., February 13.-Not-
withstanding Admiral Bunces carefully
arranged plans for the effectuai blockade
of Charleston harbor, the dynamite cruiser
Vesuvius successfully ran the gauntlet of
the North Atlantic squadron last night.
The blockaders were not aware of the
feat Of the ocean PAGER until the prear-
ranged signal. a skyrocket. was fired from
the bow of the Vesuvius. Admiral Bunce
was surprised and disappointed. He had
thought the thirg impossible, and was
10th to believe the report, 1t is said. when
it was conveyed to him.
How blockade was run Is priced as a
secret on board the Vesuvius. The officers
are all boasting Of the feat, and are as
pleased over 1t as the blockaders are cha
grined.
