The Mississippi really had the hard
est end of the struggle to bear. By the
time she reached the bend where all
the vessels came to grief the smoke
made it impossible for her pilots or her
gunners to see beyond the ships rail.
Moreover. the Confederate gunners had

Federals grounded. Doubtless their
range had already been fixed there as
the one place where the ships would be
most exposed to difficulty in making
out the channel. Whatever the cause,
their missiles found the target with
deadly accuracy for night fighting.
The ironclad Essex did not go far

His Letter of Acceptance After His

Second Nomination. ia
Abraham Lincoln was chosen to his
! second term as president Of the United
States in November, 1861. After the
official canvass of the votes 4 commit
tee of the two houses of congress was
appointed to notify him of his election
The committee consisted of Lyman
Irumbull of Illinois on the part of the
senate and james +. Wilson of Iowa
on the part of the house Waiting upon
him at the executive mansion the COM
m1ttee, by its chairman, notified him OF
: his election to a second term. Mr.. Lin
coin IN anticipation of this official visit
had his acceptance, written by his own
hand and filling little more than half
a page Of old fashioned letter paper,
ready for the occasion. He read as fol-
lows:

this view and with assured reliance on

clously sustained thus far, and with lln+Y
creased gratitude to the generous peo-.
pie for their continued confidence. I ac-
cept the renewed trust, with its vet
onerous and perplexing duties and re-
