FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 3. AN EN&LISH VISIT TO THE FLORIDA. The Richmond Dispatch makes the lol- lowing extract from a highly interesting ac count, by a correspondent of the London Times, of a visit to the Confederate States steamer Florida, now lying at Brest, France. The letter will be found to repay an atten tive perusal: I had no difficulty in making out this now celebrated' vessel, as she lay at anchor among some of the giants of the French navy—a loug, low, black, rakish looking craft, not over smart in appearance, yet useful every inch of her—a pigmy among theso mon sters, and yet a formidable pigmy, even to the unpractised eye, the palmetto £ag flying proudly at her mizzen. We happened to have a French Vice Admiral; a Russian Vice Admiral, and a Senator of the Empire on board, and you may imagine that there was an iuflnity of gossip, hut no reliable in formation. When we landed at the Calc in the harbor the crowd which usually assembless to wel come or pester new comers, was fulLof “La Floride’’ and her doings. “Wle ct,” cried an enthusiastic commissionaire to me, “elle a, Monsieur, je vous assure,_sur maparoled'hon- neur, pour deus millions livres sterling au bord, tout en Por,je vous asssure” “Eh, mon Dieu ! o'est beancoup /” cried a smart little mousse from the Turenue. I could not help agreeing with the mousse that the sum named was certainly a great deal. That evening.(aided by my fellow travel er, Mr. Henry Tupper, Vice Consul ol France, in Guernsey, and one of the jurats of that Island,) I found some of tho officers of the Florida at the Hotel do Nantes (rue d’Alguillon.) Lieut. Lingard Hoolo (a young man who apparently did not number more than three and twenty years) received us courteously, and gave us his card to assure us admission on board. : He stated, howev er, that his superior officer, Capt. Mafflt, was generally to be found ou board the vessel, and would be glad to see us. The frank ness, courtesy and total absence of boasting manifested by this young officer impressed us most favorably. All next day it blew a gale of wind in the Hade, and we could not find a boat to ven ture out. To day, however, the weather was most propitious, and early moruiug found us alongside of the Florida. We sent our cards to Capt. Mafflt, and were immedi ately admitted on board, the Captain him self coming to the top of the companion to receive us. Directly Capt. Maffit understood that we were British subjects he invited us below in. his little cabin, and when I told him there were many people in England who regarded his career with great interest he entered very freely into a recital of lm . adventures. Of the Captain himself I may say that he is a slight, middle-sized, well knit man, of about 43; a merry looking man, with a rea dy, determined air, full of life and business —apparently the sort of man who is equally ready for a light or a jollilicatiou, aud whose preterence Mr tho latter would by no means interfere with his creditable conduct of the former. His plainly furnished little state room looked as business like as a merchant’s office. The round table in the centre was strewn.with books and innumerable manu scripts, and on the shelves were formidable looking rows of account books, charts, I may observe of the cabin, as of every part of the Florida, that nome of it appears to have been built for ornament—all for usa— “You see,” said the Captain, pointing to the heaps of papers, letters^ on files, account books, &c., which literally littered tho table, “you see I’ve no sinecure of it. Since my paymaster died I’ve had to be my own pay master. There’s a young man, named Davis, (no relation to our President,) who does pay master’s duty, but he’s not yet quite up to the work.’- Capt Maffit forthwith began an animated recital of his career and adventures. He is lorty-two .years old, and is the oldest officer on board. All the officers were born in the Confederate States, and most of them were officers in the United States Navy before the outbreak of the war. The oldest of the offi cers is not more than twenty-three. The men are more mixed. There are one hun dred able seamen on board the Florida, and about thirteen officers. Four fine fellows are from the neighborhood of Brest. Capt. Maffit says that he has hardly ever taken a prize but what some of the crew of the prize have come forward to say, ^‘Should like to serve with you sir.’’ Generally speaking, he has to refuse, but if he sees a very likely fel low he takes him on. Capt Maffit was a Lieutenant of the Unit ed States Ncvy before the outbreak, and in that capacity distinguished himself greatly. In 1858 he commanded the brig Dolphin, when liq captured the slaver Echo with 400 slaves on board, and took her into Charles ton. For this feat his health was drank at a public dinner at Liverpool; and it is a cu rious fact, for those who maintain that the m nteUipiccr “ERROR CEASES TO BE DAHQEROP8 WHIM REA8QN IB hlfl : REE TO COMBAT IT.”—Jefferson. YOL. IX. ATLANTA, GEO., OCTOBER 2. 1863. NO. 254 NOTICE. 1 LQST my Trunk on Saturday last oa the Rail Road between L&Grange and Atlanta. Before arriving in Atlanta I gave my check to Maj.

Ga. civil war in America is founded upon the slave question, that the commander of this important Confederate cruiser should be the very man who has distinguished himself ac tively against the slave trade. In 1859 Cap tain Maffit commanded the United States steamer Crusader, and captured four slavers. The captain had a great deal to say about his successful feat at Mobile. Iu his opin ion it has been the greatest naval feat of modern times, ne dwelt long and warmly upon the incidents of the affair, and pointed proudly to the marks of shrapnel, which are numerous enough, on the masts and smoke stacks. The Florida was struck with three heavy -shot upon that occasion, and one can easily perceive in the side of the ship where the mischief caused by the 11 inch shell has been repaired. The Florida made no en deavor to reply to the fire which she receiv ed, the flea running too high to admit of stea dy aim, and her small crew being loo much occupied in the management of the ship.— The captain showed us a water color sketch (very well drawn by one of the midship men) of the Florida running the blockade. It would not have disgraced a professional artist. The only broadside which the Florida has fired in anger was against the Ericsson, an armed merchantman, which she encounter ed some 40 miles from N. York. The Eric- son, a very large vessel, did reply, but made the best of her way off, and succeeded in escaping. When they ventured within 40 miles of N. York they did not know that the arrival of the Tacony, one of their ‘out- fits,’ ha’d put the No.v Yorkers upon their guard, and they soon found that there were about 70 armed vessels out searching for them, and so were glad to retreat. "‘We never seek a fight,” 4aid Capt. Maffltt, “ and we don’t avoid one. You eee, we’ve only two vessels against 1500, so we should stand a poor chance. Our object is merely to de stroy their commerce, so as to bring about a peace. We have taken altogether 72 prizes, and estimate the value at $15,000,000. The Jacob Bell alone was worth $3,100,000.” The Captain exhibited a book in which all the prizes were regularly entered and all particulars relating thereto. He explained that their mode of procedure was to burn and destroy the property of the Northern States wherever they found it. I asked if they took gold and precious articles, and the reply was, “Preity quick when we get them.” The papers of the burned pi izes are all kept aud a valuation is made before the 1 destruction ot the vessels, in the expectation that when peace is restored the Confederate Government will make an appropriation of money equivalent to the claims of the cap- tors. In consequence of this arrangement there is very little actual treasure ou board the Florida, and the officers and crew are working mainly on the faith of the future independence and solvency of the Confede racy. “ Anyway,” said Capt. Maffit, “ wo have cost the Government very little, for we lived on the enemy. Oh, yes, we’ve served them out beautifully.” In reply to some questions as to the me thod of capture the captain said, “We only make war with the United States Govern ment, and we respect little property. We treat prisoners of war with the greatest re spect. Moat of those whom we have captur ed have spoken well of us. To be sure we have met with some uagrateful rascals, but you meet with these the world over. The last prize we took was the Anglo-Saxon, which we took in the English-Channel,about sixty miles from Cork. She had coal on board, and we burnt her. The pilot was a saucy fellow, and maintained that he was on his piloting ground. He insisted on being landed in an English port, but we could not do that. I brought him aud twenty-four men here to Brest, and sent them to the En • gliah Consul. If the pilot has any j ust claim upon us it will be settled by the Confederate government. That's not my business. My business is to take care of the ship.” When theFlorida wentto Brest she had been at sea for eight months without spending more than four entire days in port. Before entering the port of Brest she had not been more than twenty-four hours in any one port, although she visited Nassau, Bermuda, Pernambuco, and Sterra (Brazil.) “Yes, in deed, sir,” said the Captain, “two hundred and forty-five days upon solid junk, without repairs or provisions.” During all this time they had only lost fifteen men, includ ing those who were killed and wounded at Mobile, the paymasterfwho died of consump tion) and one officer (who was accidentally drowned.) They have come into Brest to repair the engines, which are somewhat out of order, the shaft being quite out of line.— The Emperor has given orders that the Flor ida is to be admitted into the port for all necessary repairs, and is to bo supplied with everything she may require except muni tions of war. In the course of conversation Capt. Maf fit gave me ah account of what he called “the outfits” of the Florida. These have been three in number. The Clarence was captured off Pernambuco on the 5th of May, and Lt. Reed was put ou board with twenty men and one gun. These were af terwards changed to the Tacony, a better vessel, which was captured shortly after, and, to borrow Capt. Maffit’s expression, “ she captured right and left. Finally she took tho revenue cutter off Portland harbor. The other “ fit out ” was the Lapwing, on board of which Lieut. Averett was put to cruise on the Equator. He made several captures and has now returned to hia ship. Capt Mafflt showed us over his ship, whit h was in pretty good order, considering the eight months almost uninterrupted cruise, and he presented ua both with a photograph ic picture of her which was taken at Bermu da. The Florida mounts only eight guns— six 48-pounders of the Blakeley pattern, made at Low Moor, and stern and bow cha sers. - • On taking our seats I asked Capt Maffit whether he expected to be interrupted on leaving Bre3t, pointing at the same time to the Ooulet—the narrow passage which af fords the only ingress and egress to and from the Rade. “ Well," replied he, “ I expect there will be seven or eight of them out there before long; but I’m notafrail. I’ve run eight blockades already, and it’ll go hard, but I’ll run’the ninth.” SOUTHERN lirRESS COlPill. LARGE SALE O I* UNCALLED FOR FREIGHTS.
