Whoever now claims the honour of this inven tion, it certainly is not of present age. l'he following description of one, and its operation, is extra/led from an old " Treatise of Artillery and Com Ordnance." It is ther • given a; a quotation from « Hondius, his Fortifications and Artillery." During the siege of Antwerp by the Duke of Par ma, he built a bridge of boats, the better to enable him to carry on his operations. This bridge the Hollanders in various ways endeavoured to destroy, and one of the engines employed is described as fol lows : " There were two vessels equipped, one called rk Hope, and the other The Fortwie, which was fitted by Pieter Timmerrnan, Engineer of Antwerp. and not by Frederick Jenibelly, though he had fitted many before, as F. de Metereus in his history rela teth, for he is abused, and assuredly Timmerman fitted them, and in which he made a chest of suong wood and stone in a triangular form as long as the vessel, four foot broad at the bottom, and two at the top, and in which were put 13,000 pounds of powder. At the bottom was a pipe of latten, having little holes in the middle, to give fire on all sides .n an instant, from which went out four other little pipes, for to give more certain tire at the time ap pointed. And then this chest was well built with square stones, laid in mortass all about, then co vered with grave stones in the manner of the roof of an house, and upon which grave stones there were gutters of fine powder. And also be laid 400 waggon load of stones without mortar or sand, and upon the tomb stones in the gutters there were 24 matches, which night to fire at the prefixed time ; and also they put poles round about to hinder the .;aemy from boarding, and encompassed the vessel with great pitched casks which were to be fired, that none could possibly enter. The said Timmerman took with him a Captain named I.ankhear, for to guide the boats in the way, who with his seamen did so fit it, putting underneath a sail (that the course of the river might better carry it before), a foot under water, and the said Captain put behind a certain tail or train, viz. fastened behind the rudder tour fathom long, and at the end was fastened a great bundle of old nets, with a heavy piece of timber, which kept the ship ste:sdy in its c urse, , h it it could not roll or sheer on eitl•er side ; and being so finished, was conduEled in the night to wards the bridge, by the said Pieter Timmerman, with other four seamen in company to condua the rudder ; and so floating very near the bridge, the said 'finstraerrnan fired the '24 matches, and wtnt behind the rudder to tsse other warners, and im ~e-diately diately the pitched casks were on a T zh; t. • ,•1 about the ship. They tired many .h 0:, fro:n an both sides the river,' whieh 'forced Timtnerman tet retire as fast as he could, after whom the Spaniards 11 , made many shots, but all in vain. The ship arriv- k ing at the bridge, one would have thought that heaven and earth had finished their coat WheY the powder took fire, it gave so great a blow wider water, that the water lcpt nn the outer side of ti* bank;filled the fort on Cello side, and laid all tht 1 fields round about under water ; ail the fire an matches were extinguished, the greatest part of thlft said furt thrown down, and the cannon lost. - Owe might have seen great heavy stones fly in the air,. arid driven half a league into the country. It blew up six ships of th•e bridge; of which three were so torn, that one could not so much as find a piece,- the others cast and thrown with their bottom ;ape welds, so that the brick,e was entirely broke. There were also more than 800 people blown up, anti some persons of (pulite, as the Martinis of R e es.- bork, General of the Cavaii ; my Lord Billy, for merly Governor. of Freeze, my Lord Tojae, and twenty-three Captains, and some of the Prince of Parma's Court, the Prince himself being in great danger ; for as Metteran relates, the Spaniards made all their endeavours to extinguish the fi.e by casting in of water, which they did all round about (not dreaming of the pOwder, and that the matches were then ready to fir 1, begun to mock at its vain effeas, thinking that alt die outward fire was the produEt of this engine. The Duke was so long tins a looking on, that AU the fire was quenched, but being already retired at some distance, the blow was given with such fury, that the Duke, and the Mare quis of Guest°, and others that accompanied them, were all blown down, and one could liot perceive the least trace of footing of 'the fort Awsterwell.— But the said Timmerm in, willing that they --Arnold pursue the vi Rory, signified to the Lords, tbat there was made a sufficient hole or opening in the bridge; but some seeing from afar the Spaniardsturning and returning with torches and lanthorns upon the bridge, could not believe that there was a sufficient aperture made, or that it had done any great tiff:a. and therefore did not at all folfow that a dvantage. In the mean time, the Duke repaired it with all tole ginattle diligence, much Aimairig that the Antwerp. era and Zealanders hat .wt Wien hold of that oc casion, and given an ass nth. For the breach ivas . so great, that the city might have been ease!; stip plied with necessary provisions; Ind fr this, os may observe, how one ought to fodow a 'idol tiny dertaken, an i how one ought to condinft such waits, without leaving of them in such time, as the design is ready to take eftia. Moreover the Apure ( A spews how the a.iip was fitted a -stern, with its mar san's work, and the ea.k ; and how the tra, •s and free -a came within. Also the matches were dipped in r,il of turn -urine, to give better tire together, for - that gives a MOW as swift as lightning. Artive the stone. were faggots with straw, and great taunics of green word &stens:aryl:li chains of h-en to:7_, it.her, all about the ship, as the letter (8) ith :hew, which could not but frighten the beholfees."
