A letter from Captain Robley


A letter from Captain Robley
d. Evans. of the Iowa. written
at Guantanamo bay. Cuba. July
81, to the Rev. III. FL. Clark,
d. D.. of Annapolis, Md. his
former chaplain. is published In

cons abusive attack on Captain
Evans, a perusal of the latter's
letter can scarcely fail to show
which Of the two exhibits the
higher type of Christiany. 1t
says: ut certainly was the
most beautiful sight that have
ever witnessed to see my men
at one instant tearing the ene-
my's ship literally to pieces.
and with the desire to kill every
man on board of them, and
half an holr afterward taking
off their clothing to cover the
wounded prisoners. 1t gave
me higher opinion of Ameri-
can manhood under a blue shirt
than | have ever had before.
and that is saying a great deal.
1t comes very near being pure
Christianity, according to my
notion.

Here is one Of the humors of
the war: When the cruiser
Topeka was brought across the
ocean her officers had a merry
time with the crew. The yes
sci was built for Portugal, and
her name, when our govern
ment purchased her. was the
Diogenes. On the third day out
from Liverpool her officers de-
cided to mount few guns, but
when the order was issued
there was loud grumbling
among the crew. Having no.
ticed the prevailing mutinous
spirit, the lieutenant in com
mand had the troublesome men
called before him and asked
what was wrong. The leading
sea lawyer of the party stepped
forward and made the follow
ing brief and pithy speech:
when we shipped on this 'ere
vessel. sir. she was in a British
yard, an we thort she was
British from stem to stern.
But the anchors no more'n
h'isted an we're no more'n un-
