Most of our force has recently been

oiided Witli cotton came from Mata-

'•Heeling at tl e hi ff, they spread their
tuls and put out to sea. We thought
he blockaders were gone, but observa-
«>n from the top ;f Aransas lightlmus'
roves'-that they had «inly gone out
ew leagues íor security from some
ios8ibic rebel trick. They no doubt
onsider soldiers and cotton á dangtn-
ns "combination " The litile tick
.rial resulted in the capture of C&pta n
iv.itfridge and his party, and the joke
iliat cost the life of ,a Lieutenant and
iiree seamen, to pay nothing of otlie ,

their experience on other parts of the
