What Cushing Did.

IN proud reference To the gallantry
of the American sailors who sank
the Merrimac at the entrance to
Santiago harbor. the press dispatches
Temark hat already the war has de-
veloped a parallel for Cushing's MEM
orable act of brayery. 1t is timely to
tell the ever-interesting story of Cush-
3ng's brilliant performance. He was n
native of Wisconsin. He had distin-
guished himself in the Union navy dur
ing the early years of the war. In 1864.
when he was twenty-five years old. his
brilliant exploit was the destruction
of h Confederate ronclad ram Abe
marie.
This powerful vessel had successfully
encountered a strong fleet of United
States gunboats and fought them for
several hours without sustaining mate
Sial damage. There was nothing able
10 cope with her in the sounds. Cush-
3ng volunteered 10 destroy her. and
with a steam launch and a volunteer
crew he assembled Roanoke river. tow
ing an armed cutter. The river was
lined with pickets Ca guard against
such an attack as this: but Cushing's
1uc did not desert him. and he was
within a few yards of the Albemarle
before he was discovered. Casting off
the boa that was in tow. he ordered
by. while, with a full head of steam.
he drove the launch straight at the
huge bull of the ironclad. whose crew
rushed to quarters and at once opened
fire.
The launch replied effectively with
her howitzer. A raft of heavy logs
surrounded the larger vessel. but the
launch was driven over them. and by
the time she received her death
rvound from the Albemarle's guns
Gushing had coolly swung the torpedo
boom under the great ships o~verhang
and exploded the charge. A large hole
was blown in the i%ronclad's side. she
sank at her moorings and was never
raised. Telling his companions to
look out for themselves. Cushing left
his sinking launch and swan down
stream, reaching the bank thoroughly
exhausted half a mile below.
As soon as he recovered his strength
Gushing plunged into the dense swamp.
and after many hours of tedious wad-
ing came u pom the shore of a creek,
where. with his usual good luck. he
found a picket boat and at
IL o'clock on the following night he
reached the federal gunboat at the
mouth OF the river. OF the gallant fell
lows who risked their lives with him
only one escaped besides himself.
when he started out to destroy the
ram Cushing said laughingly TO the
companions he MAS leaving. Another
stripe or a coffin.'
Thereafter other splendid deeds
passed to Cushing's credit. He re-
manned in the naval service and. in
1872. reached the rank of commander,
being the youngest officer of that rank
in the navy. III health overlook him.

of the past three weeks has served to
simplify the problem. For a time there
was all the reason in the world for
anxiety concerning Dewey. IL was easy
for Spain to put him in peril: Cervera

Manila came upon us like a fash; this

turned "a the Philippines on that first
of-May Sunday when Dewey steamed
past Corregidor island and braved the
Spaniards in their own harbor. This
country was not at all prepared to
hasten to his relief-the Spaniards could
have anticipated us by weeks. as the
slow advance toward Manila from the
Pacific coast proves.
1t is too late now; Spain may not
hope to retrieve her i'll fortunes In
Asiatic waters. Cervera is mad use
less. What the Spnaiards have. with
which to go TO Manila or anywhere else
Is Admiral Camara's fleet. He has the
Pelayo and the Emperor Charles V; he
doubtless can also have placed at his
service two or three swift, well-armored
cruisers like the Cisneros.
But. even II Spain were to consent to
leave her coast uncovered. the advan-
tage which would have been with this
fleet three weeks or a fortnight ago has
vanished. We ave not advanced so
very far Manila-ward. yet. after all. we
have done enough to overcome the rad

ton of twenty days ago placed us. The

The voyage from a Francisco is a

tage didn't mean much; 1t counts now.
Indeed. that the Spanlards. with Cervera
shut in, will trouble us in Asiatic waters
seems altogether unlikely.
