� 106 and gave them three cheers. At that moment we were in excellent range of the Sewall's point battery. As we passed the Vanderbilt we gave them three cheers, too, in honor of the part she is expected to take in extinguishing the Monitor's rival. Three cheers, too, for the Minnesota, and all the gunboats that we pass. The blue jackets give us a specimen of their gallant cheering in return. The French frigate we notice also, But they do not reply. The officers simply raise their caps. And so on we go the noble steam quivering beneath us from the force of its ponderous and swiftly moving engines, the bands playing national airs, and our men sending up enthusiastic huzzas.
An hours sail toward Ship Point and we anchor in the bay.
