No officer on duty is allowed to appear there, unless he is dressed in his uniform ; and on ascending it from below, or in coming over the ship's side, he is obliged to pay it his respects by touching his hat. I have been reprimanded for walking there on a hot summer's day, without a cravat on, and the etiquette of touching the hat is in some instances so rigorously exacted, that midshipmen are sus- pended or quarantined for neglecting to comply with it. In port, the starboard-side of the quart...er- deck is appropriated to the captain and wardroom officers, and the larboard to the inferior officers. I have seen a sailor taken to the gangway, and receive a dozen, for walking aft on the starboard side of tha 140 UNITED STATES OP AMERICA. deck. At sea, the higher officers are entitled to the weather side, that is, the side upon which the wind blows, whichever it may be. There are three hatches on the quarter- deck, the after one of which belongs exclusively to the supe- rior officers. Near the centre is the capstan, a large wooden cylinder, by means of which the anchor and other heavy weights are ruined.
