REPLY TO MR. MARRYAT'S OBSERVATIONS ON THE WEST INDIA DOCK CHARTER, &c. kc: (coNTntruti).) (No. III.) No. 4.—SOLIDITY OF BUILDFSGS AND 'WORKS. It is difficult to imagine why the importance of a separate title was given to this head, except to indulge the spleen of the writer. He again quotes the Company-la Memorial; btit' afraid of fairly and openly combating anything advanced in that docu ment, he'takes little more than a line and an half, and that without its context., for the purpose of introducing a vulgar sarcasm; his remark is this : " In the memorial of the "%Vest India Dock Company to the Board' of Trade, they mention r the extraordinary energy and rapidity displayed in the execution of this great work ;' but from the evidence given upon this branch of . the subject, they seem to have studied rapidity rather than durability ; and to have verified the old proverb, the more haste • the worse speed.' " „ This demands the following quotation from the Memerial itself:— " To shed the objects which were in the contemplation of the Legislature, it is only necessary to refer to the Reports of the Committees of the House of Commons, from the year 1796 to the year 1800, on the improvement of the Port of London ; the Report of 1796 (p• 16) states, in a comprehensive form, the general considerations of Mercantile Accommodation and Public advantage,' viz. " • Practicability and expence.' . 44 • The time necessary for completion, and progressive uti lity until completed.' " accommodation 'and arrangement of Ships' and Trades at their moorings and stations.' " • The facilitating Navigation into Port and outwards.' " The speedy landing and delivery of Cargoes.' " The security of Cargoes from plunderage and from smuggling.', - " "rhe.expediting both Imports and Exports with safety to the Revenue.' " ' The obviating circumstance of new dangers to Shipping from fire, stranding, or other' accidents.' " Just regard in avoidin g i unnecessary trespass op local concerns or private interest.' ' The passages of which it has suited Mr. Marryat to take so small a portion, refer to the accomplishMent of all the - original objects, as above quoted, by the West India Dock Ccanyany.! They are as follows " The Act of Parliament constituting the Company, passed on the 12th July, MY; the purchases being completed, and the excavations considerably advanced, the first stone of the Warehouses was laid on the 12th July, 1800 ; and the Docks opene4l far business, by the. admission of ships, on - the 2d of September, 1802. • " The extraorlinary 'energy 'displayed in the execution of this great work, of itself argues that a strong feeling as to its necessity must have existed; the progressive extension of the works was equally rapid; and their utility fully tried, by the resources of the establishment. haring been called into action and put to the test,:et,periods of peculiar difficulty during the late war,* when Item an almost total stagnation of export, the accumulation of produce on hand became excessive." 31r,11.1arryat concludes his observations under this head, thus • "If the Blackwell' entrance is in the alarming state described by 111 r. Longlantla ; if it is subject to a great number of casualties, as stated by Mr. Rennie ; if any casualty should actually betel it ; and If, us - Mr. - Walker recollects, the Lime house entry is hardly wide enough to receive the largest loaded ships, to what a situation is the West India trade exposed ? Without, however, anticipating evils; which, although possible, are not certain, (bat against .which it is the duty t.t, the IVes t India Dock Conipany' to provide,) the evidence of their own' officers , stifficiently proves, that in the execution of their works and buildings, they paid greater regard to rapidity, than to that solidity which they who deposit their property in them have a• right to expect." To all this it is only necessary to reply, that IF Mr. Mar. ryat had placed it under either of the other heads he has chosen for his observationi, wjtiCh relate to "repairs and improve- ments," or the " accumulated fund," to shew the necessity of makinglittch repairs, and retaining a fund for the purpose, it might have heen applicable. As to the dreadful situation to which the Street India Trade might be exposed, it seems necessary to intbrrn Mr..Marry . att that the Legislature was not so u nwise as to omit a provnuon for any calamity which might betel the Docks, which he will perceive if he can take the trouble to refer to the original Act. No. IL—MEANS OF ACCOMMODATION. This title Is chiefly confined to castles in the air, to ware house* in the. London Decks, which are only ground floors, and could be raised upon at any time," and to their having having" the meani (which may be-questioned) of extending their weter by making another Dock. Scmilardreanttare indulged in, as respects the Commercial Docks; they are to be deepen ed,' a new entrance niade, and warehouses, to any extent, built if weszerv. In addition tO. all this (although it is not so stated), they are probably like the Chapel of. - our Lady of Lo. retto, to be taken up through the atr, and deposited in the borough of Southwark, tbr the mercantile ttecorninodation of which Mr. Marryat seems very solicitous. - It is with reference to these visionary speculations that Mr. Illarryat declares in solemn seriousness, under this head," " that ample means of accommodation for every branch of cam " mace are provided by the different Dock Establishments in " the port of London! !" had he said that they, had provided ample means for their r e-, spectivo branches of commerce the obeervatien might pass ; but with what motive can any, thing so delusive as this be ad vanced Mr. Marryat will reply, " recollect what I stated " before, tithe proprietors raise funds for these undertakings " (and capital may always be found in/this metropolis for any "• In the period between the beginning - of July and the be ginning of December 1808, a space of, five months, when cir can►stances of die greatest difficulty occurred, apwardi of 46t ships were unloaded, exclusive of xmaller vessels and craft, w•'' cargoes consisting of 159,804 Ilhds, and Trs. of Sugar 26,917 Puns, 4nd Inds.

This is very true baked; and it' funds.cOUld be raised for the purpose, another Wraterloo Bridge could be erected by the side of the present one; and " under a 'sys tem of fair and open competition, " the - toll-keeper at the One,. was to demand nothing, while the extortioners at the other de manded a farthing per head for passing over, there can he little doubt as to which of them would he most used by the public—but people might entertain doubts whether 'the same thing would happen with the Docks, and, if it did, whether it would prove, that the object was one " 'which capital could be invested with advantage," and then it would be discovered that capital is not always to be found in this metropolis for sucit under. inking:. " - The means of accommodation," says Mr. M. ". for " West India produce, in the West India Docks, are un-, " doubtedly complete and perfect." 'No. This head seems only to have been adopted for the purpose of introducing a garbled quotation as the foundation for a splenetic remark :---" TheWilliditiDoilt Company, in their " Memorial to the Board of-: 'Ade, mention the costly .31a -14 chinery which the Company have provided, and which %fag . " adapted to the difihrent description of goods, under the able " superintendence of the late Mr. Rennie;"--this is the quo tation, upon which Mr. 3larryat, after discovering:from the evidence that " Machinery produces a great saving of manual labour," And remarking that the mahogany to which it is -ap plied 44 is sot in fact the produce of the West Indies," comes to this conclusion :—" From this o:vidence, it is clear that the West India Dock Company, although intitledsto great credit ",ffr the masterly application of scientific prineiples to practical " porpoises, in Many parts of their establishment, haYe no right " to claim any extraordinary superiority, on account of the " costly machinery mentioned in their Memorial." The Dock Company in that paper were representing to his Majesty's Government the then existing state of their Esta blishment ; they were not speaking of their machinery only (although it has suited Mr. Marryat in this, as in other instances, to take only a part of the sentence), they were detailing " the system of accommodation and dispatch, " which had arisen out of a particular trade being confined to their Docks. The passage of the memorial is as follows : " It must 'be obvious that work or business of any kind is " transacted with the greater facility and dispatch, in proportion " as the operations are similar in their nature, and confined to " particular places, especially under able and experienced au. perintendence. This is peculiarly the case at present at the ." West India Docks; where the dispatch which is universally '" acknowledged, would be unattainable without the costly " machinery which the Company have provided, and which was " adapted .to the different descriptions of goods, under the able $ 4 superintendence of the late Mr. Rennie. In furtherance 'of $ 1 the system of accommodation anti dispatch, it has been found " necessary to attend . minutely to the proper Classification of " produce at the different wharfs and warehouses, and to the " distribution of the work, so as to derive the full advantage of " that machinery, and of the experience of the' Officers of Re " venue and Servants of the Company." Do the Dock Company' arrogate to themselves " any extra ordinary superiority ", on account of their machinery, in this passage ? Assuredly they do not ; and is it any answer to a simple statement of the advantages they possess, for affording accommodation to the public, that the same means may, sonic time hence, be possessed by other establishments.— All that the West India" 'Dock Company either asserted, or meant to'tontend for, was that they, at that time, possessed the means .of giving every necessary accommodation ;. that those means were all combined in one well regulated system ; that that combination consisted, not of the judicious appropri ation of machinery only, but of an exprrienced superintendence and a judicious distribntion of the work and business of every kind, the whole being in a great degree dependent. upon that business being confined to a limited number of the articles of importation. • They never had the presumption to state that their ma chinery was superior to any other now exis•' lg elsewhere, Much less were they absurd enough to contend, m this age of im provement, that it was superior to any which could hereafter be introduced. Mr. MarrYat may reconcile this mode of comment to him self ; it requires no further notice here. [To bc continuecl.l Fi on; the 140 N LlO GAZ S,pt. 13. A'ept. 12, 1323.

" The . 1110 1 1) Plit hi Royal Highness arrived before Cadiz, he determined to possess himself of the Trocad,ero, a position which the besieged had endeavoured to render impregnable, by 'Wu merous works. " The isthmus on which it is Situated had been cut since the last siege by a canal, or cortadura, 70 metres wide, in which, even at low water, there are about from three to four feet of water and mud ; behind this was constructed an ele vated inner line, defended by 45 pieces of eau. non of various calibre. " Seventeen hundred chosen men, full of ar dour, occupied these works, and were uuceasiorely engaged in perfecting the mewls of defence. The front and flanks were protected by the fire.of in numerable gun-boats. " The great distance of the Trocadero from Puerto Real, the point from which our troops were to advance, the nature of the ground, covered with bushes and marine plants, which would have prevented our troops from arriving in order at the enemy's lines ; and finally, the strength of the enemy's works, induced his Royal Highness to open trendies before them. 44 They were opened on the night of the 101.11, 1 and on the night of the ‘24th we had succeeded in forming the second parallel, at 40 metres from the canal. The following days were occupied in completing the mounting of our batteries. " During all this time the enemy never ceased to maintain a very sharp lire, without, however, being able to relax the ardour of our workmen, or even to disturb their gaiety. 44 On the 30th, at break of day, our batteries commenced a violent cannonade, with the sole intention of tiring the enemy. The leaders of the besieged that very evening thought tit to publish in Cadiz an account, stating that we had experienced a great check. This pretended success was celebrated by a general illumination, balls, anti concerts. 46 This cannonade was, however, merely the prelude to the vigorous attack which his Royal Highness had determined to make on the night of the 30th. His orders were, in consequence, transmitted to Count Bourdesoult, commander in chief of the corps of reserve. His Royal Higheess made the following dispositions for the attack : - , " Fourteen picked companies were united — those of the war battalions of the 3d, 6th, and 7th regiments of the Royal Guard. formed the first echelon ; those of three battalions of the 34th and of the 3d battalion of the 36th com posed the second ; and, a hundred sappers and a company of artillery immediately followed. — After these echelons marched three battalions of the G uurd and the 34th regiment of the Line. The 3d battalion of the 36th acted as a reserve. Some officers who on the preceding night had, with the greatest boldness, reconnoitred the least dillicult passes of the canal, were appointed to guide each echelon. " The troops defiled by the trenches in the greatest silence, and were formed in a single column at the top of the second parallel. They, wet- Ordered to gain the other side of the canal, and to march rapidly, without firing, to the enemy's intrenchments. This being done, the first divisions were to diverge to the right and left, to possess themselves of the batteries ; and the.remainder of the ,column was to press for ward beyond the works, to act afterwards ac cordiing to circumstances. " At the same time, the materials for a bridge, prepared by Lieut.-Gen. Tirlet, Commander-in- Chief of the Artillery of the army, was to descend the, Rio San-Pedro, to establish the . communica tion over the canal ; and Lieut.-General Dode, CoMmander-in-Chief of the Engineers; had or dered Lieutenant-Colonel Dupar to facilitate the sortie of our troops from the second parallel. " His Royal Highness's orders were executed with as much precision as intrepidity. At a quarter past two,'notwithitanding the fire of the enemy, the depth of the water, which was at that time between four and five feet, and the dolmax d cftise which surrounded the foot of the in trenchments, the column crossed the canal with out any hesitation ; and in less than fifteen mi nutes penetrated into the interior of the enemy's works amidst shouts of ' 6 Five le Rol," which was the rallying cry. Our soldiers had to avenge the injury which they had sustained from the enemy whilst our trenches were being ddg, therefore all the enemy's troops whom they at the first instant came up ._with were pierced by the bayonet, and almost all the artillerymen were killed on their guns. The fortified mill of Guerra, in which the reserve was posted, was likewise carried, and the 45 cannons which wer e mounted along the line were instantly turned against the enemy, 44 His Etoyal Highness soon arrived at the po sition which had been carried so gallantly. He received numerous marks of the enthusiasm and affection of the troops for his person. All their actionS'announced their happiness in having so , well justified his Royal Highness's confidence, and proved their devotion 'to the King. The vuemy, however, had retired to the houses situ , aced near the mouth of the canal which separates the Trocadero from the island, and froM Fort, St, Louis. Ttlis point cannot be attained butt by a narrow road, which makes numerous turniogs, and is full of obstructions. The enemy mak , twined .himself here behind some intretiOnlents, and, under the prOtection of his cunnan, and of 'the batteries of the fort of Puntales. Our troops having again formed themselves, and their wet PRICE SEENPENcE, cartridges having been exchanged for dry ,ones, his Royal Highness, who had in the mean time caused the approaches of this point to be recon noitred, resolved that it should also he imme diately carried, lie therefore coinmanded Count. Bourdesoult to detach for this service the 3.d battalion of the 3dth, and the 34th battalion of the Line, which his Royal Highness caused to be supported by a battalion of the Guard. Not- withstanding the fire from Puntales, the flotilla, five pieces of artillery, and all the infantry, and likewise the difficulty of the ground, which obliged our troops to cross various streams of water and marshes many feet in depth, the enemy's position was carried, his guns directed against those who attempte4 to embark, and Fort St. Louis occupied. 44 In this second affair, which was not less warm than the first, Colonel Garces, a member of the Cortes, and the commander of all the troops concentrated in the Trocadero, was made prisoner, together with many other officers, Before nine o'clock we were musters of the. whole of the isthmus, and had caused -the, enemy n loss of 150 killed, 300 wounded, aunt 1,000 prisoners. Scarcely 2.50 of the enemy,. most of them wounded, succeeded iu embarking. MI the enemy's corps which fought on that day may therefore be considered as completely de stroyed by the French troops, who never dis played greater resolution on any occasion. Such" was the vigour and rapidity of our attacks, that our own loss does not exceed 35 killed and 110 wounded. At the same moment when the 'Frontier° was carried, his Royal Highness ordered the Spani s h flotilla of Goadslett°, Consisting of U 2 gun.boats.,, to issue from port Santa Maria to unite itself with the squadron. The flotilla set sail at break of day ;- 15 of the enemy's gun-boats advanced to opposp its passage, but the flotilla was already under the protection of fort Santa Catalina, whose fire, together with that of the brig Lilloise, which had been purposely dispatched by Rear- Admiral Itotours, speedily compelled the enemy's yessels to retire. The brig commanded by Lieut. Lemasan pursued them under the batteries of Cadiz, and even Mired on the city. 44 Whilst these brilliant of took place, all the other troops, not only at Chinolima but along the whole line, were under arms. The best dis. positions were made by Bourdesoult.
