USS Sacramento (1862)
The first USS ''Sacramento'' was a sloop-of-war in the United States Navy.
''Sacramento'' was launched on 28 April 1862 at the Portsmouth Navy Yard, in Kittery, Maine; sponsored by a Mrs. Tilton of Boston; and commissioned on 7 January 1863, Commander Andrew E. K. Benham in command.
==Civil War, 1863-1865==
''Sacramento''s first assignment was blockade duty off the North Carolina coast as part of the effort to eliminate Confederate shipping operations at Wilmington. During her cruising off the Western Bar at Wilmington on 1 May 1863, she captured the British blockade runner ''Wanderer''. Ordered to European waters after refitting, ''Sacramento'' departed Boston on 2 February 1864, calling at the Azores, Cape Town, and the Canary Islands before arriving at Cherbourg, France on 5 July. Subsequently, she cruised off the British and French coasts in the search for Confederate vessels engaged in both commerce raiding and blockade running operations. ''Sacramento'' assisted in blockading the Confederate gun vessel detained at Calais, France, in early 1865, and in March joined off Ferrol, Spain, to observe the movements of the formidable Confederate casemate turret ram ''Stonewall'' bound for Cuba from Bordeaux, France. Departing Queenstown, Ireland on 25 July, after the conclusion of hostilities in home waters, ''Sacramento'' arrived at Boston on 12 August. Decommissioned on 21 August at the Boston Navy Yard, she remained inactive into 1866.
