At its eonclusfon, the neting Prestdent of the soclety called upan Commander Blake, who haopened to bo present. In reaponse the Com- mander sald that be consldered torpedoes the most detoralizing weapon of warfare. Wuen It was determined.to send tronclads up the James River as part of the combined attack upon Richmond, he was in comunnd of the Eutaw, mul psslizned to the daty of towing the moulior Onondnga.
