Hansen says that the attack on the ship was made somewhere in the South seas, but that it was not discovéred until the Monitor was docked at San’ Francisco to -learn why she leaked. “The swordfish evidently took the Monitor for a whale said Capt. Hansen, “as that is the ewordfish's favorite methcd of attacking the big mammals, making a dive and coming up underneath with great momentum. We found the sword, minus the teeth, in the plank.’ WILL MEET IN CHICAGO. Southern Commercial Congress to Assemble in November.
