The U.S.S. Niagara visits Dover on the English coast to drop off a captured British crew

The Niagara had seized the former Confederate raider Georgia outside Lisbon as she set about her first charter, with the Portuguese government, after the Confederacy had sold her to a Liverpool shipping company. Captured with their ship, her captain and thirty-three man British crew were well-treated and dropped off at the English Channel port of Dover. The Georgia herself was already sailing with a prize crew to Boston.  (By John Osborne)
