and the General, and all his staff saw
him also thru their glasses, and was
sent to bring him to the General, and
he came and was dusty, sweaty and
covered with blood caused from a blow
from Il rebel gun on his head. When
he came out of the works he brought
II or 3 Confederate soldiers with him.
AS he said, they thought we had cap
tured Vicksburg, consequently they
were easily captured but, mind you,
all of them, including our man, came
out and into our lines on their hands
and knees, as it was not safe for anyone
TO be upon his feet at that place and
at that particular time. The man who
came out with those Confederates was
afterward promoted to First Lieuten-
ant and placed on Gen. Grants staff for
his bravery. My company was escort

The Ram Albemarle.


Editor National Tribune: 1 notice in
recent issue of your paper a subscrib-
er wants some information about the
Confederate ram Albemarle. This YES
sci was built at Edwards Ferry, n. c.,
on the Roanoke River. in 1863, and car
ried two guns. Capt James w. Cook
was the commander while at Plymouth,
n. c., Oct. 81, 1864. The vessel was
destroyed by Lieut.. VIM. B. Cushing,
U. S. Navy, and a boats crew OF Is
men selected from the Commodore
Hull, Chicopee, Otsego and Shamrock
The estimated value of the ram was
$79,944. The cost of condemnation was
S2,645. The balance was distributed
among the men who did the work, and
was paid to them Aug. %, 1865. Lieut..
Cushing was appointed in the Navy
from the State of New York Sept. 25,
1857, and died Dec. II, 1874. In the
