1 believe that of thu niiitiilroii tho
Alliance wa most like a uhlp-of-war,
linil nlie only been properly commaml

proved of little value. In thu early
part of the engagement nhe Is described
a.s sailing at hoiiiu dUtaneu round tho
Talbw, and tho Countess of Scarbor
ough, firing promiscuously at loth of
thorn, which, In tho dark, whllo tho
moon was only yet rislug, did as much
harm to friend as to foe; and she floe
not seem purposly to have at any tlmo
really engaged tho Serapls in support
of her consort, the llonhommu Kichard.
But the force of tho Serapis was such
as might bo considered not a very un
equal IUIUCIl lor l lie iioniiomiiio iieiinni
and tho Alliance together. She was of
a class then much esteemed for service
In the narrow seas and smooth water,
being particularly handy by reason of
their shortness. She was s 41 gun
two decker; on her lower deck sho
mounted 1H pounders, 12 pounders on
her main deck. Tho doublo battery
nnd tho heavier guns gave her an un
doubted superiority over tho llonhom
mo Richard, two of whoso make shift 18
jMHinilors in tho gun room old worn

killing and wounding a number of men,
and partlv blowing up tho deck over
head, 'fho accident spread a panic
among thu ship's company.whlch Jones,
by personal exertions, was ablo to stop;
but, naturally, no further attempt was
wadu to ii!o tho rest of tueso guns.
Hut, more even than In armament,
tho Seraiils was superior to the lion
hommo Kichard in rate of sailing and
iiandiuoss. Sho seems to have had it
in her power to sail round her onuiny
and to weather on her at pleasue. Al
though she began the action leeward,
(broadside to broadside, sho presently
shot ohend and crossed tho Bonhommo
Kichard's Ihjws passing to windward,
and raking her as she did so. then back
again, again raking her. Tho advan

ought, beyond a doubt, to have won an
easy victory. Captain I'earsoo waa
brave man and a goon seaman, uoi no
was uot eijunl to unwonted emergencies;
h nnd when after about an hour's engage
ment, Jones Uniting tho Honhomnio
Kichnl seriously Ill-treated by tho heav
ier guns and superior sailing of tho Ser
pis, resolved to grapple with her. Pear
son had not the tactical skill nor the
presence of mind to prevent him or to
free his ship.
It may bo left an open question by
what maneuver Jones caught tho Se
rapis. In their official reports Jones
said, and Pearson said, that the Bon

tho two men in charge of tno two snips
t the time. On the other hand, Dale,
who was in commando! the Bonhommo
Richard's main deck, and who could
not possibly see what was being done,
wrote in a private account that the Se
rapis "wore short round her heels,"
and tried to pass astern of the Bon
bomme Kichard to rake her, and his
statement, made in greater detail to Mr
l'hu esuloslon ran from the mainmast
aft. disabled many of the gun, and
kilicd, wounded, or horribly scorched
every man of them. Tho effect was
disastrous, and tor a minute it was de
bated whether tho Serapis should not
surrender.
But on board tho Bonhommu Richard
tilings were 11s bad. The carpenter came
up to Jones nml said thu ship was sink
ing; thu gunner, hearing this, ran aft
to haul down thu llagstaff, but finding
that thu Hag and llagstaff had already
been shot away, began to bellow,
"(iuarterl for God's sake, ijuarterl" un
til Jones stopped his nolso by staving
In his skull with tho but of his pistol.
Tho master-at-arms of tho Bonhommo
Richard, hearing the carpenter's state
mont, and tho gunner's ouU-rv. released
the prisoners f rent the hold. More than
a hundred of them rushed on duck; they
might and should have rendered them
selves masters of the ship, or at least
have enabled their friends of tho Sera
pis to do so, but they were bewildered
and nanic stricken: Jones, with a ores
ence of mind and an impudence that
rises to tho sublime, set mem to work
at tho pumps, and at tho pumps they
continued. One only among them re
tained his sclf-posscstlon, and escaping
on board tho Serapis through u tort,
told Captain Pearson tho state tho ene
my was in. It was too late to lie of use.
Both ships were, in fact, thoroughly
beaten, ami it was almost a matter of
change which should giro in. I believe
tho Alliance decided It- She did not
assist tho Bonhommo Richard as sho
ought to have done; her fire had caused
as much damage to friend as to foe, but
sho served to discourage tho Seraiils,
and that discouragement was sufficient
to turn tho scale. About half-past ton
o'clock tho Serapis struck, and was ta
ken possession of. Tho Bonhommo
Richard wo with difficulty kept nfloot
through the night, and sank about ten
o'clock tho next forenoon. There Is no
trustworthy return of killed nnd wound
ed; tho numbers are said to have een
about ',200 on loard the Serapis, 120 on
board the Bonhommo Richard; but this
is little better than a guess, and it is
very probable they were much larger.
The accounts aro widely different, ris
ing to nearly JKK) for each ship, and nil
that can lie positively said Is that, as
compared with tho numbers engaged,
it is the bloodiest battle on modern rec
ord. Throughout tho action Jones' conduct
as the captain of tho ship of war is be
yond all praise. Ills ship was In every
way rery interior 10 me oerapis, ami
Pearson was a man of known courago
and good repute. I do not think, though
every American writer thinks, that
Jones took the Serapis, not only single
handed, but against the treasonable as
sistance of Landals, in the Alliance that
determined the result. The presence
of the Pallas was also without effect In
this I think that Pearson's report agree
able to common sense, untrammeled by
national Dreiudlos. if. indeed, national
prejudice has anything to do with the
matter. But, on the other hand, I
think that it Is impossible Ut overrate
the ability, the pluck, tho determina
tion, and the presence of mind with
which Jones fought and won the battle.
The Alliance gare Pearson an excuse for
striking his flag. It was Jones alone,
rather than the Bonboame Richard,
who first beat him to a stand-still.

Why (ilrl Cannot Threw Stones.
Tho difference between a girl's throw
ing nnd a boy's is this: The boy crooks
id elbow and reaches back with tho
upper part of his urin at about right
angles with hi lxidy, and tho fore-arm
at an angle of about forty-five degrees;
tho direct act of throwing is accom
plished by bringing tho arm back with
a sort of snap, like tho tall of a snake or
whip lash, working every Joint from
shoulder to wrist, nnd sometimes mak
ing your clltfjw sing as though yon had
gotten 11 whack on tho cra.y-bonu.
Tho girl throws with her whole arm

difference exists we norer learned until
at a somewhat advanced period we dove

that the clavicle, or collar-bone, in the

crooked, awkward bone interferes with
the full and free action of the shoulder,
