Discovery of a Burled Torpedo Boat off
Charleston-Remarkable Career of a
Remarkable Cran.
Ia l?64 the fleet of Admiral Farragut
waa blookadiag Mobile, while a heavy
laud and na^jul attack was directed
against Charleston.
During our long defensivo war a great
deal of ingenuity had been expeuded by
the Confederates upon torpedoes and
torpedo boats. Tho most remarkable of
these boats wus constructed in Mobile by
Messrs. Huudley & Mcclintock, und
launched in 1864; and nothing which has
gone down into tho sea waa moro won?

frioud and foe. Sho was built of boiler
iron, nud impervious to water or air.
Her extreme length was about thirty
feet, with fivo or six feet beam, and
about "five or six feet depth of hold. In
general contour sho resembled a cigar,
sharp nt both euds. Sho was propelled
by a screw, tho shaft of which ran hori?
zontally along her hold, almost from storn
to stem, and was turned by the manual
force of eight men, seated along it on
either side. Tho only hatchway was cir?
cular, about, two feet in diameter, with a
low combing ttrouud it, which was placed
well forward, and when desired, could
be closed by au iron cap working on
hinges und made air-tight. In tho for?
ward part of this cap was inserted a
clear glass bull's eye, through which tho
pilot could seo. She was provided with
water-tight compartments, by filling or
emptying which sho would 6ink or rise,
and to enable her to riso instantly, her
ballasting of railroad bars was placed on
her bottom, outside of her hull, and by
means of keys accessible to her crew,
could be detached iu a moment, so that
she would rise quickly to tho surface.
Besides her rudder, which was of thc
usual form, this vessel was equipped
with side paddles or fins, which, like
those of a fish, served to guido it up 01
down with reference to tho surface ol
the water.
To prepnre for action a floating torpo
do was scoured to her stern by a linc
more than 100 feet long, and her crev
having embarked, tho water tanks wen
filled until tho boat was in equilibrio
and almost submerged. The hatchway
was closed, the men revolved the shaft
the captain or pilot, standing under th
batch, steered the boat, regulating at th
game time, by the action of her Intern
fins, the depth at which she would move
Her greatest speed did not exceed fou
knots. She could remain submerged fo
half an hour or an hour, without an
great inconvenience to her crew-an
on one occasion has been known to rc
main under water two hours, without a<
tu al injury to them, although no mear
were provided for procuring fresh ail
and from tho moment the hatch wt
closed/ tho men, thus fastened in the
living tomb, inhaled and exhaled coi
tinuously the atmosphere which was ei
closed with them. The plan of attnc
proposed by the inventors, was to dh
beneath tho keel of an enemy's shi]
hauling tho torpedo after her. Its trij
gers or sensitive primers would thi
press against tho ship's bottom, exploi
the torpedo and inevitably sink tho shi
Not anticipating an early opportunity
using this dangerous vessel against tl
fleet of Farragut, Gen. Maury sent h
by rail to Geo. Beauregard, at Chark
ton, believing tho waters of that barb
butter suited to her peculiar constru
tion, while in the Ironsides, or sor
other gigantic war ship then attackii
Charleston, might be found an obje
worth tho great risk to which her o\
crew was exposed in any enterprise th
might undertake in her.
Geu. Beauregard changed tho anauj
meut of tho torpedo by fastening it
the bow. Its front was terminated by
sharp and barbed lauco-head, so tl
when tho boat was driven end on agaii
a ship's sides, tho lance-head would
forced deep into tho timbers, below t
water line, and would fasten the i
pedo firmly nguinst tho ship. Then t
torpedo boat would back off and explc
it by a lanyard.
Gen. Beauregard's call upon tho C<
federate fleet for veluuteers to mau t
dangerous craft was promptly aoswei
by Lieut. Payne, a Virginian, and eij
sailors. They were soon ready
action; and on tho evening set for tb
expedition, the last preparation 1
been made. Tho torpedo boat 1
lying alongside I ho steamer from wh
the crew had embarked; she was s
merged till tho combing of her ha
alono was visible above tho water. ]
commander, Payne, was standing in
hatch-way, in the act of ordering he:
bo cast off, wheu tho swell of a pass
steamer rolled over her and sunk her
stantly, with her eight men, in sev
fathoms of water. Lieut. Pay no spr
out of the hatch-way as tho boat s
from under him, and lie alone wan
alive. In a few days she was raised,
again made ready for .service. A{
Payne volunteered, and eight men >
him. The embarkation for their sec
attempt was made from Fort Suai
and, as before, all having boon n
ready, Payue, standing at his post in
hatch-way, ordered tho hawser to be
off-when tho boat careened and f
instautly. Payne sprang ont; tw<
tho men followed him; tho oilier
went down in tho boat and perished
Again tho boat wus raised and L
ready for action, and her owner, C;\\
Hundley, took her for an experiuu
trip into tho St no river, wh.ne,
going through her usual evolutions
dived in deep water, nud for hours
for days, the return of poor Hui
and his crow was watched for and lo
for in vain. Arter near a week's se
she waa found, inclining at an aug
forty degrees; her nozzle was d
deep into tho soft mud o? tho bol
Her crew of niuo dead men were h
iug, sifting and lying about in her
asphyxiated. Hundley was stai
d ;?ul nt his post, a caudle in one]
whilo the other had grown stiff
death in his vain efforts to uuclam]
hatch. Others had been working ?
keys of thc ballas!, but the in si i ii
nt WHICH ino uoat tin.il gotio down lind
jammed tho keys so that tho men could
not cast off tho heavy weight which held
thom down. Thuir deaths had bean bard
and lingering. Again this fateful vessel
was mude ready for action, and volun?
teers being called for, Lieutenant
Dixou, Twenty-first Alabama Volun?
teers, a nativo of Mobile, aud eight
men, volunteered to take her against thc
eu erny.
Tho new and powerful war ship Housa
touic was selected for attack, nud ou
a quiet night tho bravest crew set out
from Charleston in this terrible, nameless
torpedo boat, that over manned a craft
before. Wo nil know tho futo of tho
Housatonic. Brave Dixon guided tho
torpedo fairly against her, tho explosion
toro up tho great war- ship's sidos, so
that shu went down with nearly all her
crew within two minutos. Tho torpedo
vessel also disappeared forever from
mortal view. Whether sho went down
with her enemy, or whether she drifted
out to sea to bury her gallant dead, was
never known, and their fate wns left till
tho gi*eat day when the sea shall give np
its dead.
But within a low weeks past, divers in
submarino armor havo visited tho wreck
of tho Housatonic, and they havo found
tho little torpedo vessel lyiog by her
hugo victim, and within ber are the
bones of tho most devoted aud during
men who ever went to war.
