Card by John H. W. Hawkins accusing Alden Partridge of providing alcohol to students and encouraging drunkenness. ; HAWKINS' CARD. I was sorry to learn, both at Norwich and Hanover, from unquestionable authority, that Capt. Alden Partridge-whose head is whitened with the snows of many winters, and who has charge of a class of young men, mostly from other States, placed under his guardianship and tuition, by those who are little aware of the influence exerted upon them, is among the foremost in promoting;' both by precept and exam-ple, the habitual use of intoxicating drinks. That from y ir to year, he appoints himself a committee of arrangements, for cer.bratingthe 4th of July in the " old way," as he calls it. That on the last 44 4th," he got up a c lebration and carried it through in his own way-furnished the means of intoxication, in profusion-presided at a drunken revel with his own Students and others, with great apparent delight. That on the 3d and 4th of Sept. last, he held his commencement-and on the latter part of those days he had a Ball in his own building-furnished the liq-uor& himself, and many got " too much." That on the 26th of Sept. la t, he invited the Pha-lanx, a mili rry company compo d of stu dents of Dartmouth College, to march over to Norwich.- They went a.s ii vlted, noi, suspecting that a snare was set for them ;-he took them to his school building, where they w. re tree, ed with an abundance of the drunkard's beverage,so disguised as to deceive the un-wary. He then conduct . them to his own dwelling, where he again treated most liberally, urging the more cautious to drink, assuring them it was a very weak and harmless wine and would not hurt them.- The result was, as well might be expected, that sev-eral of he Dartmouth students, and of his own pupils were most decidedly intoxicated. Whereupon the authorities of Dartmouth College immediately dis-banded the Phalanx-returned their arms to the State, and placed the Banner in the Cabinet of Curi-osities attached to the College. Capt. Partridge, as the committee, ( self-styled ) has appointed the former Captain of the Phalanx to deliv-er an oration on the c ^ming 4th, anc has invited the former members of that company to join him in the celebration. And has despatched for Concord or Bos-ton, four huge demijons and some half-dozen capacious jugs, to be filled with divers kinds of choice liquors to be drank by himself-his students and guests, at his celebration of the 4th, and at his commencement in August ! I leave the comments to be made by yourself and others. Yours truly, JOHN H. W. HAWKINS

La interesante personalidad del navegante y corsario inglés John Hawkins -el Juan Acles o Juan Aquines de nuestros documentos y crónicas- es muy poco conocida por los españoles, no obstante la importancia que tiene su figura en el marco general de la historia americana del siglo XVI. Y menos conocida todavía si se hace abstracción de algunos episodios piráticos o acciones de índole militar, que no reflejan, ni mucho menos, la verdadera significación de la personalidad de Hawkins, cuyos viajes y empresas tienen mucha más honda trascendencia en el presente de su siglo y para el futuro, que el de unos simples encuentros navales en las inmensidades del Océano o en las encrucijadas de los puertos del Caribe. ; Peer reviewed
