stress the praiseworthy efforts of our
infant Navy, however, give little or
no space to the stirring exploits of
the American privateers which
played important parts in bringing
the wars to close. The loss of a
few frigates meant nothing, except
loss of prestige, to Great Britain;
but the havoc wrought by our priva-
teers on British commerce was an
other matter.
In its inception, privateering was
q form of legalized piracy, but in
time 1t came to be governed by we'll
defined law. During the almost
continual state of war that existed
between Great Britain and France
in the 18th century privateers Of
each country preyed on the COM
merce of the other, and 1t proved
such a profitable business that. the
American Colonies became inter-
ested and furnished many privateers
which flew the British flag.
Privateering Authorized.
Thus it was that, upon the out
break of the Revolution, privateer-
ing was not an unknown profession
In the Colonies, and the Continental
Congress, as early as November Is,
ITS, authorized this form Of attack
on British commerce. All expenses
Of these vessels were borne by their
owners, and they sailed under a
Government commission known az
letters of marque and reprisal.'
The wages paid the crews amounted
to practically nothing, but the op-

made exempt from capture on the
high seas in time of war.
Early In 1861, the Confederate
States began issuing letters of
marque, and few small privateers
ventured forth. They were poorly
adapted for their intended work and
met with such scant success that
their use was soon discontinued. The
Federal Government threatened to
treat all captured privateersmen as
pirates, and placed several crews on
trial. The resulting convictions
stirred up hornets nest, and the
Confederate authorities warned of
their intention to retaliate on Union
prisoners of war. When they went
so far as to select hostages by lot
from among captured officers, the
Federal Government gave its decision
second thought and decided that
captured privateersmen should be
considered ordinary prisoners of war.
In 1863, Congress empowered the
President to issue letters Of marque
and reprisal, but this authority was
never exercised. The reason for this
legislation is not now readily appar-
ent, unless 1t was q gesture for the
benefit Of foreign powers, which
contemplated possible intervention
In behalf of the Confederacy.
The manner of making war on the
seas has changed. Privateers have
no place in modern warfare, and
never again will those scourges Of the
sea spread terror and devastation iu
their wakes,

many inducements to make new
acquaintance"
A correspondent, writing of state
dinner at the White House during
President Fillmore's administration,
1850-1853, makes the following men
ton of this notable woman:
"At state dinner we met Mrs.
Alexander Hamilton. whom Mr.. Fill
more escorted to the table-a plain,
little old lady and very plainly
dressed. The dinner consisted Of
nine courses and we sat from to 9.
Through the entire length of the
table was a mirror about a foot in
width with a sort of bird-cage ar
rangement at the edges, on which, at
intervals, were placed vases of arti-
f1cial overs; we saw very few natu-
raj flowers and there was no con-
servatory at the White House"
Previous to this we find at the
"birth-night ball" at the White
House, February %, 1845, that
President Tyler was accompanied by
President-elect Polk, and that Mrs.
Madison was present with Mrs.
Alexander Hamilton"
How interesting these social func-
tions must have been, since 1t was
