la the war between Spain and the
Jnltwl States , It Is generally anticipated
hat the American navy would proceed to
nveat Havana and demand the unconditional
urmuler of that city. Such a course would
ut to an Immediate- test the. resources of
10 Spanish fleet , and the successful Irauo
f the American attack on their principal
aval station would put a terrible handicap
n all future operatlctvs undertaken by the
panlsh ships against ours. One can easily
naglne , therefore , the strenuous efforts
! iat would bo made , on the one hanJ to
arry out , and en the other to repel any
uch attack. Yet It Is dlfllcult to see how ,
i the face of a strong attacking fleet In
rent and an almost certain attempt from
ho rear by the Insurgents , aided possibly
y an Invading force of our troopa. the gar-
lion could hrpe to hold out agaU-Mt the
nevltably disastrous bombardment that
lust follow a vigorous resistance. 'Nothing
ive the presence of a powerful Spanish
auadron cculd avail to prevent the city
alllnfi at once Into our hands.
In view of these facts It Is IntcrcstV.j to
cvlc-vv the fates of some famous cities , which
referred the horrors of n bam'barduicnt ' to
n Ignominious surrender. The most re-
narkable Instances of recent years wcro
hose of Alexandria and Paris. In both casca
he attack prevailed over the defense , not-
vlthstar.llng that the fortifications of both
and up-to-uati-
Itlca were Immensely strong
n every particular. However , there were
xionuatlng circumstances In each case
which accounte.1 for the premature success
f the enemy.
BOrMUATCDMiENT Ol ? AtjEXANDUIA.
The contest at Alexandria wia short , but
leclplve. Within ten hour * the British fleet ,
under Admiral Seymour , had effectually al-
enced every gun on the shore. Ten thou
sand shell and solid shot VVCTU poured In on
he thoroughly frUhtencd Egyptian * , and n
complete evacuation of the 'orts was the re
sult Yet very little execution waa done by
this veritable hall of Iron , for the great
parapets -of sand , which protected the im-
erles , rendered harmless the huge 13-Inch
projectiles , and It was only because of the
lavoc caused by the fragments of r.nolla
which flew around every whore and accom
plished a frightful slaughter among the gal-
iiit adherents of Arabl Pasha , joined to a
( nowlcdgo that their want of accuracy in
aiming left the licet practically unharmed ,
that the defenses wcro so npceJlly relin
quished to the IJrltlsh admiral. A ? every
one knows , the guns were mottly all spiked
or blown to pieces by n landing party of
narlnos , but outside of the forts themselves
the destruction WMS very small , for the pres
ence of friends 04 well as toes In the city
forbade an extensive shelling of any but the
recognized native quarter , yet mifflclent damage -
ago was done by the Incendiary shell.i to
Mart a flro that almost destroyed the ontlro
toA-n. In this engagement the enormous
lower of Si-ton guns , the projectiles of which
weigh over 1,700 pounds , \vaa amply demon
strated ; but It was also evident that the
quickly thrown-up and" Inexpensive embank
ments of sind form an Invulnerable doferne
against o\en these terrlbln weapons , and
thtro can bo llttlo doubt that , In the binii
of experienced gunnem , the guns of the
harbor batteries would have glvtu a much
better account of themselves. It Is even
an open question whether the "fleet " would
not have been repulsed under such clrcum-
utancea. Herein lies an example and moral
which thcso who oppose all proposjU to In
crease the artillery branch of our army
might well ponder , for the succcis o' the
ships under Admiral Seymour's command
showed conclusively that the magnificent en-
glnea of niodern warfare can be manipulated
even moderately well by men , however brave
and willing , who have not undergone the
lengthy and arduous course of training that
Is necessary to turn out a properly qualified
gunner.
HOW THE GERMANS POUNDED PARIS.
The bombardment of ParU , though It can i
hardly bo compare with a risible attack
on Havana , Is yet worthy of iiptlo as Illus
trating what nur.surcs can be taken to rc-
duce an unwilling city to subjection. During
the month of January , 1871 , the Prussian
gurs literally ralnod on the fortlflc.itlonu of
the beautiful capital tie seemingly Impcst'Ible
"number of 10,000 shells each day , and of
these more than BOO fell on a dally average
Into the city proper ; the devastation caused
by the latter In some parts waa frightful ,
and the tires In consequence often threatened
to ruin whole districts. Many houses and
walls wcro thrown down by the parriwn , EO
oa to leave large open 8jces where shells
could do but little or no aarruge , yet many
a one who had endured the pan pa of hunger
In silence and submitted without complaint
to the severe regulations of the commissary
general , for the honor and cake of "Ln Belle
France , " found It hard to restrain both tears
and Indignation whtu , on returning from the
front after a long and hopelcsj ftriigslo
against an apparently Invincible foe , he could
discover nothing save the rules of his former
home.
During the civil war there , were many furi
ous bombardments , but they were principally
directed agalntt Important forts and in no
caos were the ports or cities threatened with

England had taken by storm a few ycar-i be
fore. For three yeans and woven months the
stronghold was Invested by a lirgo force of
all arms and a practically uninterrupted flro
from 135 guns , including sonic fifty mortar. . )
of thlrteen-lnch caliber , waa maintained from
January 12. 1780 , till February 2 , 1783. !
Meanwhile , the gallant little garrison waa
but once relieved and suffered all the panga
of starvation , not unmlngled sometimes with
a feeling of despair : atlll they clung to ho
glgantl : rock , impelling attack after ck
with Indomitable courage and endurance
and Inflicting enormous losses on their op
ponents. The latter , Indeed , arc deserving
of ppilse for the pertinacity and perseverance
with which they returned to the fray time
after time , undaunted by continual reveraeu
and hopeful ever to retrieve the disgrace
which they considered the presence of heir
bated "Intldelu" put upon them.
The interesting and exciting episode dur-
taff this long siege waa the ferocious at

In the event of the presence of a large Spanish
squadron In the Immediate vicinity of the
harbor , since , there Is no reaacrt to fear the
power of the gura of Morro castle In a prp-
longed bombardment. oi
It Is a bit cf history worth recalling that
Havana itaelf was once aucctsafully Invested
and cannonaded , and that , moreover , 'the
troops , to whose courage and mettle the c-lp-
lure of the o'Ay waa almost wholly due ,
were of American , or , as It was then called ,
provincial , extraction. On June C , 1762 , ; a
British fleet landed some 12,000 troops en the
coast a few miles cast of Havana. The work
of Investment wn quickly begun , end ilqt-
withstanding the gallant defense , made by
the garrison and the mortality caused ninon ?
the British trcops by dlsesese and famine ,
the JOth day of Juna saw the opening of a
fierce and destructive flre on the forts of
Morro castle. Seventeen days later flfo"
Spanish guns had benn all but silenced , anil ;
a footing was gained , by ( ho besiegers wlthn ]

cf the caatle. One. month after the opening
of the bombardment a breach of tmfflclent
dimensions had teen made and a storming'
party composed of provincial trosps , known
03 the Hoyal Amcrlcanii , carried the fortrou.
by burprlao. The city of Havana waa subco- ,
o.uently reduced to surrender and became
British property. Had Its oubsequent change
for t'he Fiorldas net been effected , how dlffi-r
cntly would have read the story of the' 'f
of the Antilles ! " It may be Incidentally
mentioned that the fleet cf ships of the II no
were compelled early In Iho l/ombardmenti
to retreat Ignomlnously , when the admiral
In command thought to supplement the land
attack by a cross-fire from the tea.
