Volume 27 of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Navies in the War of the Rebellion completes Series I of this publi- cation, preparation for which was begun in 1884 and the publication authorized by act of Congress, approved July 31, 1894. The plan of publication is fully set forth in each of the 27 volumes published, but it is found advisable to make a slight change in Series II. Series II, as now planned, after giving the statistical data of Union ships in volume 1, will treat mainly of Confederate matter. SERIES 11.VoL. 1. Part 1.The Statistical Data of Ships, both Union and Con- federate, is from the original rolls and records. Part 2.Muster Rolls of Confederate Government Vessels. Pub- lished in order that, as far a~ possible, the locations of individuals may be determined. The muster roll of a ship is continued throughout her commission, and accordingly changed from day to day. It is a paper which is submitted by the commanding officer at the end of each quarter of the fiscal year. It will be observed that these muster rolls, in many cases, cover but a limited part of the vessels commission and therefore can not give the entire personnel - that served on that vessel. In the lack of more complete data such information as is available is herewith published. Part 3.Letters of marque and reprisal. This information is published as,bearing on the subject of one of the most interesting features of the War of the Rebellion. Part 4.Confederate departmental investigations. It is believed that the information disclosed by these investigations will be of great interest, revealing the condition of the Confederacy as to its meager supply of all that is included in the words naval stores, also the exceedingly limited facilities in the way of dock- yards, machinery, foundries, etc. ILLUSTRATIONS. The vessels, of which illustrations are given in this volume, are practically all types that were incidental to the peculiar geographical 1 Page 14 14 PREFACE TO SERIES lIVOL. 1. conditions, the rivers and bayous and other inland waters. They are practically all types that have ceased to exist, and it is doubtful if any of these will ever be reproduced. The naval campaign during the War of the Rebellion was unlike that of any other naval campaign in history, in that it was fought largely in inland waters. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the campaign was the ingenuity displayed by both sides, in the design, construction, and handling of the vessels of unusual types. To the Confederacy is due the credit of having accomplished so much with so few resources. C. C. MARSH, Captain, U. S. N., Retired, Oflicer in charge Naroal Records wad Libr& ry Page 15 INDEX.

SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith an application from William Hone, Esq., of this city, for letters of marque and reprisal. He desires, if possible, liberty to change the name of the schooner Gallatin. Mr. Hone enters intQ satistactory bonds, and it is im- portant to him to receive the commission at as early a date as pos- sible. You will therefore, if there is anything more necessary to be done by him or us to facilitate the matter, please telegraph him, the telegraph dispatch to be paid by Mr. Hone. Yours, very respectfully, JOHN BOSTON, Collector. Hon. ROBERT TooMBs Secretary of Sta5e, Montgomery, Ala. [Enclosure. I SAVANNAH, April 18, 1861. The undersigned asks for a letter of marque for schooner Gallatin. She is a topsail schooner of about 150 tons and was until within the last year in the service of the United States. She will be owned by F. W. Simms, D. H. Baldwin, J. A. Cour- voisie, Win. Stamch, and Win. Hone, all of the city of Savannah. It is intended to place two 12-pounders on the main deck, and supply the crew of about 40 men with rifles, cutlasses, and revolvers. The undersigned will give satisfactory bond that the owners, officers, and crew will observe the laws of the Confederate States and the regu- lations for their conduct. The undersigned will be master of the vessel. W~I. HONE. lion. JOHN BosToN, Collector of Cu8toms, Savannah, Ga. SAVANNAH, April 18, 1861. DEAR SIR: Having a vessel admirably adapted to the service of privateering and being stimulated by the call of his Excellency (our most worthy) President Jefferson Davis, I beg leave herewith to apply for a letter of marque, being prepared to give the required bonds or necessary vouchers for a proper and strict adherence to the requirements and regulations thereto attached. The brig Hallie Jack8on, for which I desire the letter, is now one year old, is built of the strongest material (white and live oak), copper fastened, built under my own direction; would carry two large, or four small 32 Page 330 330 LETTERS OF MARQUE AND REPRISAL. deck guns, with a crew of, say, 30 men all told, and is owned exclu- sively by me, and is expected to arrive in a few days. I would prefer selling the vessel as a coast guard, and would take $9,000 for her; she would in that capacity do active service. This vessel has the exalted honor of having hoisted the first Confederate flag within the limits of a foreign country, having by my instruc- tion displayed our flag for one week while in the port of Matanzas, Cuba; although not yet recognized it was respected. I beg leave to refer you to IR. R. Cuyler, Prest. C. R. R., John P. King, Prest. Ga. IR. Th, and am ready to give my bondsmen at any time that may be required. I remain, dear sir, very respectfully, yours, B. S. SANCHEZ. Hon. ROBERT TooMBs, Secretary Qf State, Montgomery, Ala. NEW ORLEANS, April 19, 1861. M~ OLD FRIEND: I want a letter of marque and reprisal, and dont know what steps are necessary to take to obtain it. Can you send it to me here? At this request you may be at first astonished, as it has been so long since we met you may have forgotten me; I will therefore jog your memory of Auld Lang Syne, when we were boys together, you at Oxford and I at Burlingham. This will, I know, suffice to bring me at least in your minds eye, Horatio! My wife, formerly Miss Sallie Ragland, sends her regards to her old friend and I conclude by trusting you will procure me the docu- ments that will enable me to overhaul at least a Cincinnati flatboat. Your friend as ever, - JNO. S. KENNEDY. R.OBT. JOSSELYN, Esq. Please direct care of Thorndike & Co., New Orleans. APRIL 22, 61.

Enclosed please find application for letters of marque and reprisal for schooner Triton, and also bond for faithful compliance with laws, etc. You will discover that our vessel is small, but small boats should keep near the shore, it is said, and we will therefore use her until we can procure a larger and better ofie. We intend to do the Black Republicans as much harm as possible and from our knowledge of them the most effectual way of injuring them is to touch their pockets. We have an eye on several vessels, and we wish to secure our letters of marque as early as possible, so that we can capture them before they get too far off. You will indeed confer a lasting obligation by sending us the commission as early as convenient, as we are anxious to be at work. Very respectfully, JAMES HOUSTON. lion. ROBERT TooMBs.

I have full confidence in their integrity and capacity to faithfully perform the services usual for such expeditions. In relation to myself I refer you to Governor Brown, Surveyor General A. J.

Your early atten- tion will greatly oblige. Respectfully, C. H. STEVENS. Hon. S. R. MALLORY, Secretary Navy, Mcrmtgomery. NEW ORLEANS, May 4, 1861. IDEAR S~ra: Since my interview with you, I have made arrange- ments to prosecute the contemplated enterprise ou a large scale. And as in the nature of things the Gulf will soon be cleared of Yan- kee merchautmen, my intention is to cripple Northern commerce on foreign seas. To do this effectually I must be in a situation to do it with dis- patch. I wish therefore some 20 or 3Q letters of marque (accom- panied with instructions) sent me with the name of the ship and commander left blank. As soon as received they will be dispatched by intelligent messen- gers to Europe with instructions to put ships in commission so SOOIX as we are recognized abroad. It is alike unnecessary and imprudent to go into detail lest by accident this letter might fall into improper hands. The Iresident knows me well enough to tell you that I am incapable of abusing the trust I ask. And as Mr. Lincoln seems disposed to prosecute his war like a vandal, it is our duty to cripple his resources and impov- erish his people by all the means known to honorable warfare. Please telegraph me on receipt of this. Yours, truly, W. IR. MILES. Hon. IR. TooMBs, Montgomery, Ala. MAY 6, 1861.

Whereas the earnest efforts made by this Government to estab- lish friendly relations between the Government of the United States and the Confederate States, and to settle all questions of disagree- ment between the two Governments upon principles of right, justice, equity, and good faith, have proved unavailing by reason of the refusal of the Government. of the United States to hold any inter- course with the commissioners appointed by this Government for the purposes aforesaid, or to listen to any proposals they had to make for the peaceful solution of all causes of difficulty between the two Governments; and whereas the President of the United States of America has issued his proclamation making requisition upon th Page 336 336 LETTERS OF MARQUE AND REPRISAL.

HOWELL Coun, President of the Congress. Approved May 6, 1861. JEFFERSON DAVIS. PRESIDENTS INSTRUCTIONS TO PRIVATE ARMED VESSELS. 1. The tenor of youi~ commission under the act of Congress, en- titled An act, recognizing the existence of war between the IJnited States and the Confederate States; and concerning letters of marque, prizes, and prize goods, a copy of which is hereto annexed,, will be kept constantly in your view. The high seas, referred to in your commissions, you will understand generally, to refer to low-water mark; but with the exception of the space within one league, or three miles from the shore of countries at peace both with the United States and the Confederate States. You may nevertheless execute your commission within that distance of the shore of a nation at war with the United States, and even on the waters within the jurisdiction of such nation, if permitted to do so. 2. You are to pay the strictest regard to the rights of neutral pow- ers, and the usages of civilized nations; and in all your proceedings towards neutral vessels, you are to give them as little molestation or interruption as will consist with the right of ascertaining their neu- tral character, and of detaining and bringing them in for regular adjudication, in the proper cases. You are particularly to avoid even the appearance of using force or seduction, with a view to deprive such vessels of their crews or of their passengers, other than persons in the military service of the enemy. 3. Towards enemy vessels and their crews, you are to proceed in exercising the rights of war, with all the justice and humanity which characterize this Government and its citizens. 4. The master, and one or more of the principal persons belonging to the captured vessels, are to be sent, as soon after the capture as may be, to the judge or judges of the proper court in the Confederate States, to be examined upon oath touching the interest or property of the captured vessel and her lading; and at the same time are to be delivered to the judge or judges, all papers, charter parties, bills of lading, letters and other documents, aild writings found on board; the said papers to be proved by the affidavit of the commander of the capturing vessel, or some other person present at the capture, to be produced as they were received, without fraud, addition, subduction, or embezzlement Page 341 LETTERS OF MARQUE AND REPRISAL. 341 5. Property, even of the enemy, is exempt from seizure on neutral vessels, unless it be contraband of war. If goods contraband of war are found on any neutral vessel, and the commander thereof shall offer to deliver them up, the offer shall be accepted, and the vessel left at liberty to pursue its voyage, unless the quantity of contraband goods be greater than can be conveniently received on board your vessel, in which case the neutral vessel may be carried into port for the delivery of the contraband goods. The following articles are deemed by this Government contraband of war, as well as all others that are so declared by the law of nations, viz: All arms and implements, serving for the purposes of war by land or sea, such as cannons, mortars, guns, muskets, rifles, pistols, petards, bombs, grenades, ball, shot, shell, fuses, pikes, swords, bayonets, javelins, lances, horse furniture, holsters, belts and generally all other implements of war. Also, timber for ship building, pitch, tar, rosin, copper in sheets, sails, hemp, cordage, and generally whatever may serve directly to the equipment of vessels, unwrought iron and planks only excepted. Neutral vessels conveying enemies dispatches or military persons in the service of the enemy, forfeit their neutral character, and are liable to capture and condemnation. But this rule does not apply to neutral vessels bearing dispatches from the public ministers or am- bassadors of the enemy residing in neutral countries. By the command of the President of the Confederate States. ROBERT TooMBs, Secretary of State. FORM OF BOND.

He instructs me to reply that he can not issue a blank commission as solicited by you, but if you can furnish this department with the certificate of the collector of your port that you are a person to whom such information may properly be given, you shall be furnished with the names of agents in Vera Cruz or in Eng- land, from whom you may obtain the desired commission. Respectfully, M. MENNINGER, Esq., New Orleann. W. F. ALEXANDER, Chief Clerk. LIVERPOOL, May 20, 1861. SIR: I have addressed you this morning through favor of the Vicomte A. de Lassus; now with his knowledge I beg to inform you of some of my plans. I have long had an idea and have named it to your military com- missioners here at the beginning of the struggle, of iron plating the bows (it may be after Coles or others system) of some of our steam tugboats, or, if suitable vessels can be found ready built here of en- tirely plating them, putting their armament and stores, etc., on board and sending them over say to the Buenos Ayrean Government or 34 Page 347 LETTERS OF MARQUE AND REPRISAL. 347 other ostensible and likely buyers, they might call at some convenient port en route where a crew might be ready collected, to whom she could be handed over, who might run her into a Southern port, fight- ing any opponents in her way. By skill and good management, I think several vessels might so be collected, and meet at a given date, and if fortune favored they might make some captures most serious to the enemy. I cant he!p thinking New York or some vital point could be burned by a bold stratagem of this nature, by the daring of a single vessel and the determination of her crew, and stand a very f air chance of getting away unhurt, by the very boldness of the movement, running ~n under the Federal flag at dark, and trust to night to escape; fortune favors the bold! I suppose they could not hang them! They would be for letters of marque and reprisal. Description Tonnag Number Name of Amount ~Th~ of vessel. e. Armament, of crew, sureties, of bond. issued.

If I had been a Russian I would have so undertaken to have destroyed Liver- pool in the Crimean war, but it may be you are better prepared at your ports than we were here. Another idea of mine is to tise petroleum as a fl-reship say against gunboats on the Mississippi, where the situation suits, in fact it might be used as an adjunct to the steamer attacking, towing it in,, and after having fired enough setting it in a blaze in the best position, and under the cover of the confusion escape. You must have plenty of of- ficers who would undertake and run the risk. But to return to busi- ness. I am unable to manage such heavy money operations out of my own funds as armor plating suital4e vessels for your government, nor would it be -fair that I should do -so. I am willing to leave all profits open till they get there, but you must find me means to work here for -all outlay. I have full confidence in the result and being able to carry out the schemes and am content to -arrange with you to receive for my services only a commission for -my loss of~ time -and that of -the Count de -Lassus, say 10 per cent if the vessel is captured, would require the whole, say 100 per cent if the vessel succeeds. I know several likely vessels and think far an outlay of say 25,000 each, several excellent gunboats plated at the bows with a sufticient cover for four heavy guns amidships could be constructed to be used for- ward only when under fire and they could be got ready in 8 or 10 weeks. I know most of the shipbuilders and think a, flotilla could be ready in time for your ally, -the yellow -fever, deserting you. I wil Page 348 348 LETTERS OF MARQUE AND REPRISAL. take the risk of such an act as regards my government on my own shoulders, and believe I can find a sufficiently good ostensible pur- pose for the steamboats and perhaps documents authorizing the affair from some government as a screen in case of need. I would call in some of the cleverest of my friends, in the altera- tions to gain the end desired, and I have some knowledge of these matters myself. I am, yours, most obediently, W. J.

It is agreed that the parties of the first part will with all possible speed bring the steamer to the port of Mobile, and get her ready for a voyage beyond the Confederacy. The said steamer to be appraised by two disinterested citizens, one to be chosen by each of the contracting parties, and in case of differ- ence of opinion of her value, by their umpire to be chosen by them. One-half of the value so appraised shall be paid in Treasury notes of the Government by the party of the second part to the parties who are principals of the first part, in case of loss or capture. The expenses of altering and fitting out said steamer and of the voyage to be borne equally by the con4acting parties. The party of the second part agrees to deliver with dispatch at the port of Mobile, sufficient bales of cotton to load said steamer, at the market price of such cotton in the Mobile market, not to exceed 22 cents per pound. The party of the first part agrees to carry and direct said steamer to havana, saving dangers of the seas and public enemies, and there dispose of said cargo for the equal benefit of the contracting parties of the first and second parts, share and share alike, deducting ex- penses of voyage. And it is further agreed, that the parties of the first part shall have exclusive control of said steamer and of the voyage out and in, subject only to the stipulations of this agreement and of the recitals which are to have the effect of express covenants. 176429voL 121 2 Page 354 354 LETTERS OF MAUQUE AND ]~EPRISAL. As soon as the cargo outward is sold or otherwise disposed of, which shall be done with all reasonable dispatch, the parties of the first part shall receive and deliver at the port of Mobile, danger of the seas and public enemies excepted, all goods and property of any description which may be ready for transportation, by an authorized agent, acting and shipping for the Confederate Government, provid- ing the amount so shipped does not exceed the one-half of the freight- ing capacity of the steamer, loaded with the view to speed and safety. The other half of the transporting capacity is to be reserved to the parties of the first part for such goods as they may purchase. Should the agent of the Government use less than one-half of the transporting capacity of said steamer, then the party of the first part shall have the right to use it, and shall pay freights at current rates for that portion so used. Should the party of the second part or his agent use no part of the freighting capacity of said steamer, then the return cargo is to be purchased on joint account, and the party of the first part and the party of the second part shall each receive one-half of the profits thereon, share and share alike, first deducting all costs and expenses. It is further agreed that on the return of the steamer to Mobile and the close of the adventure, the vessel is to be again appraised by two disinterested parties as above; and the one-half of the differ- ence between the first and second appraised value, if any, shall be paid by the party of the second part in Treasury notes of the Gov- ernment, it being the intention of this instrument in no wise to disturb the ownership of the vessel. It is further agreed that the parties of the first part shall, when- ever called upon by a duly authorized agent of the party of the second part, furnish detailed statements of the adventure and sub- mit for his inspection and copies all books and papers appertaining to said steamer, cargo, and voyage.

[Endorsement: Sent two blank commissions and four instructions June 10, 1861.] CHARLESTON, S. C., June 8, 1861. SIR: An association of gentlemen, with which I am connected, pro- poses to apply for letters of marqtie and reprisal, under the provi- sions of the act of Congress approved May 6, 1861, and I desire in their behalf to obtain some information as to the proper mode of making the application, the circumstances of the case rendering a literal compliance with the conditions of the 3d and 4th sections of the act impracticable at present. The association proposes to purchase in Glasgow, Scotland, an iron barque-rigged propeller of seven or eight hundred tons burthen, of great speed, and to fit, arm., equip, provision, and man her, either there or at some other port beyond the limits of the Confederate States. While, therefore, it would be easy to give the names and resi- dences of the owners, and to execute the necessary bonds, it is im- possible to give other particulars required by the terms of the sections referred to. Would it be possible to issue a conditional commission Page 359 LETTERS OF MARQIJTE AND REPRISAL. 35~ to be exchanged for a regular one as soon as the vessel was pur- chased, armed, and manned? I should be greatly obliged by early information on this and on such other points as maybe necessary for my guidance, including copies of instructions, printed forms, etc. With great respect, your obedient servant, (Captain) WM.
