	1812_constitutionandjava
		At this game the Constitution was overwhelming "Java" with her 44---24 pounder guns in her main battery as opposed to "Java's" 38---18 pounders, and the English Captain determined to "close and board" in the dashing and fearless way that had made the British Navy the terror of all maritime peoples.
		"Java" proved to be a rich prize, as she was one of the best of the English frigates, and had been fitted up for the accommodation of the governor general of Bombay, General Hislop, and his staff.
		"Java" was too badly cut up to save, and her having lost 48 dead and one hundred and five wounded to "Constitution's" twelve killed and twenty wounded crowded the Constitution with a large number of extra men and taxed her accommodation and her medical capability to the limit.
