Consulate, Kingston, Jamaica, ) January, 21,1863. J To lion. Gideon Welles, Secretary of Navy: Sir: It is my painful duty to inform the department of the destruction of the United States steamer Hatteras, recently under my command, by the rebel steamer Alabama, on the night of the 11th inBt., off the coast of texas. The circumstances of the disaster are as follows: On the afternoon of the 11th inst., at 3:30 o’clock, while at anchor in company with the fleet, with commander Bell, of Galveston, I was ordered, by signal from the flag-ship Brooklyn, to chase a sail to southward of eastward. I got unuer way immediately, £ and steamed with all speed in the ‘direction indicated. After some time, a strange sail could be seen from the Hatteras, and which was ascertained to be a steamer, which fact I communicated to the flag-ship by signal. I continued chase, and rapidly gained upon the suspicious vessel. When within about four miles of her, I observed that she had ceased to steam, and was ly ing broadside awaiting us. It was nearly seven o’clock, and quite dark; but. not-., withstanding the obscurity of the night, f ; felt assured, from the general character of, the vessel, and her maneuvering, that I ’ would soon encounter the steamer Ala bama. ■. Being able to’ work but four guns on the sides of the Hatteras—two short thiity- two-poundera, one thirty—pounder rifled gun, and one twenty-pounder rifled gun— 1 concluded to close with her, that my guns nught be as effective as possible. I came witbin easy speaking range, and, upon asking, “What steamer is that?" I re* ceived answer, “Her Britannic Majesty’s ship Vixen.” I replied I would send a boat aboard, and immediately gave the order. * In the mean time both vessels were changing their positions, the stranger en<> deavoringto gain a desirable position for a raking fire. Almost simultaneously with piping away tie boat the stranger replied: “We are the Confederate steamer Alabama," which — t-t* - V—rrf-’ijewiT it the same moment returned the lire, an steered directly toward the Alabama, but she was enabled, "by her great speed and%y the foulness of the bottom of the Hatteras, and, consequently, her diminished speed, to thwart my attempt, when 1 had gained a digtanoe of but thirty ym-ds from her.

Another entered the cylin der, Billing the engine room and deck with steam, and depriving me of any power to maneuver the vessel or to work the pumps, on which a reduction of the fire depended. With the vessel onfire in two places, and beyond human power, a hopeless wreok, with her walking beam shot away, and her engine rendered’ useless, I still maintained an active fire, with' the double hope of disabling the Alabama and attracting the attention of the fleet off Galveston, which was'only twenty-eight miles distant. It was soon reported to me that shelis had entered the Hatteras at water line, tearing off entire sheets of iron, and that water was rushing in rapidly, utterly defy ing every attempt to remedy the evil, and that she was rapidly sinking. Learning this melancholy truth, and observing that the Alabama was on my port bows, entirely STEAM ENGINES. 16) NEW STEAM ENGINES FOB SALE, complete, and -£> {without boilers) are 116 inches stoke and 12 lnchee Lure.

To prevent the blowing up of the Hatteras from the fire, weich was making much progress, I ordered the Magazine flooded, and, afterward, a lee gun to be fired. The Alabama then asked if assistance was desired, to which an affirm ative answer was given. The Hatteras was now going down, and, in order to save the lives of* my officers and men, I caused the armament* on the port-side to be thrown overboard. After considerable delay, caused by the report that a steamer was seen coming from Galveston, the Alabama sent us assistance, and I have the pleasure of informing the department that every living being was conveyed safely from the Hatteras to the Alabama. Ten minutes after leaving the Hatteras she went down, bow first, with her pennant at her masthead, and with all her muskets and stores of every character. The enemy not being able, owing to her rapid sinking, to obtain a single weapon. The battery upon the Alabama, brought into action against the steamer Hatteras, numbered seven guns. From the character of the cotcat, and the amount of damage done to the Ala bama, I have no reason to believe tbaf any officer failed in his duty. To the men of the Hatteras I cannot give too much pra{3e. Their enthusiasm and bravery were of the highest order. I mclose the report of the Assistant Surgeon, by which you will ob serve that five men were wounded and two killed.
