One hundred years ago today oc-
Cured the battle Of the barges," be-
tween q force OF British from the
blOckadinE squadron in Chesapeake
bay and a fIOtilla Of barges and gun
boats designed TO aid in the defence OF
the city Of Washington. Commodore
Barney, in command Of the American
flOtilla, being threatened with attack
by several large British warships had
taken his boats up the Patuxent river
and found a refuge in St Leonard's
creek The British followed with a
superior force Of barges and small
schOoners. Having no guns with which
to wage a fight at long range, cOmmO-
dOre Barney dashed forward into the
midst Of the enemy. Soon the barges
were engaged in desperate hand to
hand conflicts For more than an hour
the action ragged. both sides fighting
with vigOr and gallantry. But the
Americans having pierced the British
lines. the enemy abandoned the fight
and fled precipitately to their ships.

for president in 1852. but was defeated
by Pierce. This shows the difference
between the United States and Mex
leo. When the commander OF the
Mexican army runs for president the
other candidates all run in the oppo-
site direction
When the Civil war broke out. Gen
Scott was 70 years old. and retired
from command He died in 1856. This
was a mistake on his part II he had
died in 1850. he would have been a far

II became famous by strolling
across Mexico in 1876. through
hostile army three times the size Of
his own, was Nirginian who was born
in Petersburg in 1856, and became 4
captain in the army % years later
In those days when the United
States was young and was picked up
on with great enthusiasm BY most
anybody, a captain in the army led 3
busy life. In 1872, Scot was captured
by the British at Queenstown, Canada,
but was afterwards exchanged The
Yankees always could beat the British
trading. but they never beat them so
badly as they did at this time A year
later Scott raised such havoc with the
British armies at Chippewa and Lun-
dy's Lane that he was brevetted brig
adler general, and was offered the
secretaryship of war
Scott declined, however, and kept on
doing odd Jobs OF fighting for many
years He had charge OF the Black
hawk war, and helped tame the Sem
inoles in Florida IN 1889, he got %
votes for president in the Wing CON-
ventiOn which nominated Harrison. and
when the Mexican war broke out, ne
was in command OF the United States
army which went to Veracruz-
A great many people have deprecated
the cruelty OF the United States IN
pitching onto feeble little Mexico in
this war. but it must be remembered
that the pitching was done with an
army of never more than half the size
OF the Mexican army General Scott
was Of a methodical disposition, and
when he set out for Mexico City, he
didn't linEer by the way. Each day
he advanced the usual distance, AMI If
he had to advance through a Mexican
army OF twice his size or over q eta
del perched hundreds Of feet above
him. II was all in the days business.
He arrived in Mexico exactly on sched-
ule time, and experts in the war bust
ness have said that Napoleon couldn't
have done more workmanlike job.
