	11								ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: See "From Sandy Hook to 62 Degrees" by Charles Edward Russell. [From The Golden Rule, Saturday, February 21, 1846] THE LATE Awful, Shipwreck.-We hear from all quarters that the snow storm of Saturday and Sunday last, in which so many lives were lost on our coast, was accompanied by the severest gale of the season. It commenced at Philadelphia at 5 o'clock P. M. on Saturday, wind N. E.; at New York, same day, 8 A. M., wind N. N. E. at Boston, next day, Sunday, at 5 o'clock A. M., wind N. E. Of the vessels reported to have been lost, we are happy to say that one, the Orleans, arrived safe yesterday morning, having weathered the gale off Barnegat. The vessels lost on Squam beach were the packet ship John Minturn, Swedish bark Lotty, Bark New Jersey; and schooners Register, Arkansas, Pioneer, Alabama, and a ship unknown. The packet ship, J. Minturn, Capt. Stark, sailed from New Orleans, on the 27th, ult., for this port, and in approaching Sandy Hook on Saturday, being caught in the storm, was driven south, going ashore on Squam beach at 3 o'clock on Sunday morning. A boat was immediately sent out in charge of five of the crew and one steerage passenger, with a rope, which was fastened to the shore to facilitate the landing of the others. Capt. Starks attempted to guide the second boat to the shore, but the rope parted—so it is stated by those saved—and, he was drowned, with all in the boat. The cries of those remaining on the wreck, which now heeled of shore, were heard until ten o'clock Sunday morning, when it is supposed they all perished in the breaking up of the wreck. The following are reported as lost; Capt. Stark and lady, their son, daughter, and two servants; Mr. Kohler and lady; Capt. Babcock; Messrs. J. Leeds, Levy and Baker, four of the crew and twenty or thirty steerage passengers, part of them the crew of the ship Cherokee burnt at New Orleans. A pilot belonging to this port is supposed to have been lost also....The pilot on board the John Minturn was Mr. Thomas Freeborn of the New York pilot boat Blossom. He has not yet been heard from.

	12								NOTES: In this cartoon Henry Winter Davis (1817-1865) is shown as Don Quixote, armed with Board of Admiralty spear with Wade & Davis Manifesto as shield, he is charging upon the windmill, the Navy Department. John Parker Hale (1806-1873) represents Sancho Panza. Upon the windmill is the head of Gideon Welles (1806-1878) and a fox, representing Gustavas V. Fox (1821-1883) Assistant Secretary of the Navy. Upon the vanes of the windmill are represented the MONITOR and VIRGINIA. Davis' speech belittling the MONITOR'S victory is quoted. Another figure, it is thought, represents Edward N. Dickerson, one of the great critics of the Navy department at that time. The title is that of Davis' book of 1852. Dickerson (?) "quotation" includes mention of the PENSACOLA and the CLARA CLARITA. Concerning the investigation of the PENSACOLA-- engine troubles see: "House of Representatives Report No. 8, 38th Congress, 2nd Session, Washington Jan. 30, 1865: Report of A.H. Rice from Committee on Naval Affairs." Concerning the CLARA CLARITA see LP 2435 and references listed on record sheet for that print. This print is from a book written by Henry Winter Davis entitled The War of Ormuzd and Ahriman in the Ninteenth Century (1852), in which he combated the southern contention that slavery was a divine institution. the book was published in 1852 by James S. Waters of 244 Baltimore Street, Baltimore. Maryland. SPELLING NOTE: MERRIMACK, MERRIMAC - According to a letter from the office of The Secretary of the Navy, W.R. Furlong, Acting, dated August 31, 1937, the correct way of spelling the name of this vessel is MERRIMACK. The Bureau of Construction and Repair recommends that all labels of models adhere to this manner of spelling. The official position of the United States Navy is that this vessel was named for the Merrimack River in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and was correctly spelled with the terminal "k".	CL7766
