EACH WAS A VALIANT FIGHTER StlrrlnK RoinlnUopncm nnil Intcrcul- IIIHT Fill tire PiKMllilllllrH of the Uuithit itilnr ofVnr ut LeiiKiie Inland , ScarroJ nnd Indented with the marlts of shot and shell the eight old monitors at League Island , Philadelphia , which nro being overhauled to test their fitness for service n case of need , display Indisputable evidence of the worthy service they rendered durltiK llie civil war. The turrets of every ono of the stout little sea warriors bear tlic Im prints of cannon balls , testifying to the nu merous engagements In which they took part. The records of the navy prove , re lates the Philadelphia Record , that these eight monitors , which have been peacefully moored so long In the back channel , dis tinguished themselves almost as nobly aa their celebrated prototype , Ericsson's orig inal monitor. It was probably the thought ot naval oRl- ccrs that the old monitors would pnd their days at League Island and never be called upon again to n uro In the defense of the country. Years have passed since their ma chinery was In motion , for even when they arrived at Ioague Island they wore towed by tugs , Instead of using their own engines and propellers. It was with a certain de- srce of respect that they were given berths In the back channel n.s their last resting place , as was then atipiwscj , for they repre sented a typo of war vessels which com pletely revolutionized modern warfare , and were the forerunners of the great armorclads of the present day. MAY DO YAILIANT SBHVIOB AGAIN. . Hut although discarded and left to rust away , their qualities as coast and harbor de fense vessels were not lost sight of. Ilcnco it Is qulto In the natural order of events that orJers have been received at Washing ton to start the engines on the old monitors once more , and thoroughly lest their ma chinery. One by one , the monitors are being towed out Into the reserve basin to undergo the test , and'It'is ' believed that their engines will be found to bo still In comparatively good working order. Necessary repairs will bo made , however , and the eight iron-bound veterans will then only need gun batteries to bo ready -for service. inuring the war of the rebellion the mon itors bad batteries cf heavy smooth borea of and Dahlgren guns , the most scientific then In use. H Is now proposed to place modern rifles In their turrets if It Is found that the gun.i . can bo properly mounted and that the old vessels can stand the strain of firing the powerful now pieces. They were built staunchly , however , as wa well proven , and It la anticipated tlmt they will stand every test well. Stationed for harbor defense , they would provo ugly customers for any In > vading fleet. The .monitors arc the Montauk , Mahopac , Manhattan , Canoiilcus , Nahant , Catsklll , Jason and Lehlgh. They were all built In 1SG2 , and are of about , thc same size , from BOO to C50 tons regUter , with a speed of six knots an hour. The Montauk , Catsklll , Jason and Lehlgh were built by Ericsson , tlio designer 'and builder of the first moni tor , the first two at , Brooklyn , and the last be two at Chester , on the Delaware. The Ma hopac and Manhattan were built at Jersey City , and the Canonlcus and Nahant at Bos sea ton. "CHEESE-BOX" AND THE MERRIMAC. Ho In Ericsson's monitor , the much-ridiculed the "cheese-box on raft " a , was commissioned on February 25 , 18G2 , and opportunely ar rived at Hampton Roads on March S , the day the dreaded Merrlmac destroyed the Cumberland and Congress and wrought such havoc In the union fleet of wooden vessels. was on March 9 that the celebrated en was counter between , the llttlo Monitor and her in formidable adversary took place. As Is well known , that engagement sealed the doom of wooden vessels for naval warfare the and the success of the Monitor led the government to build a number of similar Ironclads , among which were the eight now the being overhauled at League Island , to The Montauk has on especially distin all guished naval record. This monitor first were came Into prominence on February 28 , 1863 , during the blockade of Charleston , S. C. to Two wooden vessels In the union that blockading fleet had been crippled the two armor-clad confederate rams fitted ing In Charleston , and' there had been other disheartening reverses. Commander John L. Wordon , who made himself a hero as com mander of the Monitor during the Mer- rlmac engagement , was In command of the Montauk , which , was " ordered with other ves to bombird Fort McAllister , over looking the Great Ogeechee river. In the river the confederate cruiser and the that blockade runner Nashville bad b.een penned the for some time by the union fleet. A line piles driven In the river prevented a more dash past the fort. , but Commander Worden the Montauk up to the piles and shelled most Nashville- a range of 1,200 yards. cruiser was destroyed by the effectual had of the Montauk. retary The gallant Worden was quite as proud this feat as of his light with the Mor- Martin rltcac , and Justly so. The Montauk was under a terrible fire from the fort while mer. It ' shelled the cruiser , but Its Iron tur withstood the shells , although In j remark ually dented ! n several places by solid shot. and attack was .made by the Montauk , the their Nahant , another of the present League Island veterans , and several other monitors quiry. wooden vessels upon Fort McAllister , , although wide breaches wore made In a embankment by their fire , the fort cald withstood capture. the A FURIOUS ENGAGEMENT. the On April 7 the first serious attack on sister Charleston was made.

But the attempt 'to ' reduce the to and capture Charleston did not suc . The Nabant was close to the belching be from the forts , and was disabled during Austrian action.

IN FAIUtAQUrs FAMOUS FLEET. The Manhattan , under Commander J. W. A. Nicholson , was one of the four monitors pent 'to ' relnfcrco Fatrogut's fleet for tlio capture of Mobile , during the summer of 1SC1. Every schoolboy knonn , or ought to know , that Farragut , during the engagement , was lashed to tlio masthead of the llagship Harfonl , auil that when the squadron wavered btvause ono of his veait-ls fcareJ to cross tbo Hue of torpedoes , the brave admiral shouted : "Damn the torpedoes ! " and ordered his ship to bo the > flrst to crotii. Although the monitor Tecumsch was blown up by torpedoes , the squadron safely passed Fort Galnca and. Fort Morgan , only to en counter the formidable ram Tennessee. This Iron-plated vetdel was under the confederate admiral , Buchanan , the commander of the Merrlmac , ami the Tcnnroace threatened to create art much havoc with Farragitt's wooden vessels as the Merrlmac did with the Hamp ton Ko.td * lltx > t. Under Farragul's orders , the Tcrme&seo was rammed by several union vessels , among them the Manhattan , it ml the monitor ! was foremast In the light which compelled tlio surrender ol the confederate vessel. At the bombardment and .capture of Fort Fisher , which wa followed by the surrender of Wilmington , X. C. , the Canonlctis and Mahopac played Imiwrtarri parts. Wllmlng- aon was the last open gateway between tlio confederacy and the outer world , all other pot'ts having been effectually -closed. Fort Flaher was the lock ) in the gate , and on the control of the gateway depended ' 'hu maln tcnanco of Leo's army , The confederate general sent word to Colonel William Lamb , thu gallant ccmmatulcr of Fort Fisher , that It must too held or the confederate army could not be subsisted. MBMOUAULB PAL.1 * OF FOIIT FISHER. In December , 1864 , Admiral Porter col lected a fleet of tilxty vessels , the mcdt for- nildablo atmada of the war , 'to reduce Fort ' Flslie'r. Two attacks were made , .and . .he fort was captured by land force after hav ing been severely handled by the guns of the fleot. The Mahopac and Canonlcus during the engagement were stationed , with , three other Ironclads , only a half-mlo | .from Mio fort , drawing its heaviest lire. The fall of Fort Fisher und the capture of Wilmington cut off Lee's supplies und hastened the cud f the war. The Jason and Lehlgh also figured aa valiant fighters , ami no other group of eight could have shown a better record during the war 'Chan the old monitors at League Island. The Montauk likewise * has a claim to his toric Interest In addition to her hoiioatble naval service. When the body of J. Wllkcs Booth was brought back to Washington after the assaslnation of President Lincoln it was placed on board tbo Montauk , th'en lying with her sister monitor Saugus at the Wash ington navy yard. The body of Booth wao kept on the Montauk for thirty-six hours , anil was examined by the surgeon general and his staff. General L. C. Baker , chief of the' War let department detective bureau , received or ders to "put Booth's body where It will not disturbed until Gabriel blows. Ills last trumpet. " It was consequently a. popular belief that the Montauk carried 'the body to for burial ; but the testimony of Lieu tenant L. B.Baker , one of the army officers charge of the body. Is to thu contrary. stated that the remains were taken down Potomac river In a rowboat , and a heavy bait and chain was taken along to give tbo " Impression that' the corpse was to be con signed to the river. Under cover of darkness , has the however , the rowboat went 'to the old peni tentiary , or aiscnal , where the body was temporarily burled under a stone floor. It afterward removed , the lieutenant stated a letter , and interred In Baltimore. The Mem'auk ; and Saugus also served as and temporary prisons for the Incarceration of but conspirators who planned tlio deaths of President Lincoln , Secretary Seward and will other members of the administration. With It exception of Mrs. Surratt , who was taken the penitentiary , the conspirators were you taken to the monitors aa soon as they captured , and held there until the prisoners were executed or taken to prison fact serve their sentences. It was believed the the monitors wculd bo safer places for of Imprisonment of tho' conspirators , pend " their trial , than any jail.

When the Maine arrived ho called at the ofllci of the Union Constitutional tlonal to see Diaz , to an effort to secure the origin of the letter. Some days after the Maine explosion Laine met Diaz , who asked him if i ho remembered the letter and what Its contents were about the American war ship. The American correspondent replied that ho 1 did and that he believed some ono had followed Weyler's adviceLaino says that he | has filnce found out that Diaz In formed the chief of police that he ( Lalno ) hail a copy of a letter written by Wcylcr which might bring trouble to the Spanish government , especially as ho was an Anict/l- can newspaper correspondent , who was as sociating with Captain Slgsbce. On March 4 Lalne was arrested by the chief of police of Havana. His friends were Informed of his being Imprisoned by a cab man who knew him. According to Lalne , Chief I'aglierl enld to him : "Well ( , sir , we have you here flccured , and me < tell you that the secret that I know you posseis will never be known through you by others , as no one will over know what become of you. " Lalne replied : "If you think that you can murder me as were Araza and Potasa , the two young men who were taken from hero and i killed In the Cerro , you are mis taken. " Tlio colctiel replied in a calm , but stern Way : -"No , sir , I am not mistaken. " "Vo may not be mistaken , " said Lalno , "but I can tell you that at this moment French , as well cut the American , coMul been notified that I am here. " This changed the chief's attitude eor.i - what , but he persisted in trying to Recur * information from Laine. "I know , " he said , "all about a copy of m letter of General Weyler's which you bavo , the trouble you Intend to cause with It , I do cot care very much about that. What I want to know now and I hope you answer me , In consideration of the good may bring you , l what Information did give to Consul Lee on the 21st of Feb ruary about your suspicions of a plot sug gcstcd by that letter and the placing of dynamite mines In the harbor , with which you said you became acquainted during period of your Incarceration in the tlmo Weyler ? " "This was really a surprise to me , " Lalno'a narrative continues. "I had referred to the Incident of the letter to General Leo and spoken to him about what I had seen durlnj my Imprisonment In the Cabanaa fortress , which lasted for more than a year. during the most bloody period of the rcl n Weyler. "I had 1 noticed for several nights mya- terlou ; works which were being done In the fortrei On inquiring from a soldier whom knew wa aware of what It was , he In formed me that they were carrying from the magazine of the fortress large quantities of dynamite which were being laid in the har . " "My Invcstlgatlen during my period of Imprisonment was carried as far as a poli prisoner could do In a Spanish fortress It was sufficient for mete ascertain with certainty that tie ! quantity of dynamite in the harbor In different places was tons and that wires from the mines were connected with the Cabanas fortrcra tad the Capltanla Puerto , or may'io : headquarters.
