presented themselves to the legal sd-

Dramatic Encounter.
A scarcity Of prizes led Commander
Semmes TO relinquish any hope of taking
many on his voyage to Europe.
As he steamed out of Table Bay he had
visual evidence Of the reason of his re-
cent nonsuccess. An American bark
called the Urania, trader between Boston
and the Cape, had lain in Table Bay when
the Alabama was there six months be-
fore. and each day had flown a large and
handsome American flag.
The Urania in the Alabama's absence
had made a voyage to Boston and back.
and as the Alabama steamed out Of the
bay the Urania sailed in-but this time
under the British flag.
Another interesting incident of the Ala
bama's departure was her passing a new
American steamer-the Quantung-invard
bound, the vessel being on her way to
China.
Both ships were within the marine
league. and safe in neutral waters the
Quantung passed so close under the Ala
bama's guns that her American flag
seemed almost to touch the Stars and
Bars floating from a mizzen peak OF
the Confederate cruiser. The crews Of
the two vessels looked on in silence as
they passed.
The steamer kept on her course into

bama was hull down on the horizon.
