the river, which now assumed q more
pleasing aspect. At s o'clock in the
afternoon Mount Vernon, the retreat
of the illustrious Washington, opened
to our view and showed US for the
first time since we entered the Poto-
mac gentleman's residence. Higher
up the river, on the opposite side, Fort
Washington appeared to our anxious
eyes and to our great satisfaction
assailable. A little before sunset the
squadron anchored just out of the
gunshot. The bomb vessels at once
took up 0eir position to cover the
frigates in the protected attack at
daylight nsxt morning and began
throwing shells. The garrison, to
our great surprise, retreated from the
fort, and . short time afterward Fort
Washington was blown up, which left
the capital Of America and the popu-
lous town Of Alexandra open to the
squadron without loss Of . man. It
was too late to- ascertain whether
this catastrophe was occasioned by
one Of our shells or whether 1t had
been blown up by the garrison, but
the opinion was in favor Of the latter.
