they are net completely covered. The precaution of
'bowleg at a distance the detachments of the force
of melons is squadron at short intervals should
be take.. The fall of a first barricade is soon fol-
lowed by the evacuation of those behind it. If, on the c n-
utty, toe barricade which forms the obstacle is solid, end
is protected by an armed force, which renders access difficult
and murderous, an eatry must be effected into the houst s

without noticing the complaints of the intrabitaote, or the
injury which the property may sullen; the troops must:mount
to the upper apartments and break a way through the walls,
which oiler hole resistance at that height, to the point
when they can descend into the barricade. There is no
danger of its being held long after this. The mom
alert men may, by sliding on the roofs, obtain
positions from whence they may take the insurgents in the
rear; this should be done wherever practicable. It hsp,ens
sometimes that the barricades may be turned either on their
Hooks°, in the rear. These movements executed judiciously,

ae.d it hunts time, may put down at once a resisiancewhich
might have appeared formidable. It should always be
attempted when the 'elisposi-ion of the plains allow it. The

Ink NEW BRIDGE AT BATTERSEA.—During the
last few days from 20 to 30 men have been busily em-
ployed is sawing timber and preparing piles to sink in the
river, preparatory to begineicg operations for the erection of
the proposed sad long-talked of suspension bridge between
Cool, et and Battersea. The bridge, which is to be con.
inflicted for carriage as well as passenger teethe, is to be m
minced on the north side of the river, about 300 yards below
the proem in frost of Chelsea Hospital, and is to cross the
river in • direct line is frost to the old Batteries Red
Haase, so long known to and frequented by Cockney
sportsmen. The Red House is to be pulled down
entirely, sad an elegant approach is to be made on
the site of it and the gardens attached, to the southern
end of the bridge. On the north the bridge is to be
approosbed by • rend to be constructed running is • direct
line from the now toterious chapel of St. Brambes.
oe seven of the piles have been put done, and a pile driver,
resting on a barge, Is in active work, forcing dawn others.
These piles ere intended to protect the piers on either side,
while la the coarse of erection, from the velocity of the
tide, sad from the caltisiese of the bargee, steamers, and
oilier craft navigating the Thames. Battersea fields are
still la their former ungainly Mete; not • spade has as yet
bees pit is the ground to make the new park, and the only
appearitnes of alteration which sea be MOO is, that of a new
batik lie course of being raised by the Wa'er Works Cam-
posy.. It is to be hoped that the casamisionen will be
enabled to c marines the making of ON park without delay,
for until it is finished the bridge, when erected, will be of
little advantage.
