rFor tn American Republican. !

.MeSsrS. EditorS:-I perceive by the report o
the City Councils, that a committee has beer
| appointed to visit the general government, anC
urge the necessity Of terrifying Sellers Point
This important pro ect has been seriously re
commended for several years by the board o
engineers; and, although imperiously demand
ed, has been, tor some reason, probably the
want OF tunds,) from time to time DELAYED -
mistaken notion, or perhaps blunder runs
through all the reports which feel anXiou.
to see corrected. The Secretary of War, r
his official document, says, after the compile.
ton of this important work of defence, there
VIII be no danger of an inrasion by the way Of
North Point; and this language is reiterated by
our councils. do not wonder at the Secreta-
ry Of War making mistake on this subject
because he has probably never visited the dis,
trct iii which the proposed defence is to be To-
Gated Some of the engineer corps have,
believe, made reconnaissance, and ought GER
tain!y to have known better. We will, how
ever, look at the facts. Sellers Point is stu
atcd about half way between the city of Bal
tilnore and North Point, distant or miles
from each. The fort is to be extended out up
on the fats, until it will reach nearly within
pistol shot of the channel. If steam vessel
of war should possibly be able 10 pass this ba t.
terry, she will, in all probability, be so injured,
that by the time she comes within the reach of
the guns Of Fort McHenry, she will be sunk
or blown to pieces. There is no doubt, there
fore, of the great necessity and efficiency of
the works to be erected on Sellers Point, in
rendering Baltimore secure against naval at
tack. But when it is added, those works
will prevent an i,lra,iOn by land, or by way of
North Point, 1t is palpable mistake. If such
an event should ever happen, we will have to
depend, as we did in the last war, upon the
stout arms and courageous hearts of our fellow
citizens to repel the enemy The guns of the
proposed fertilization cannot prevent an army
landing any where at North Point. They can
then march upon the city by the same route as
they did in 1914, and the nearest vicinity to
Sellers Point, during their advance, will be
over three miles. The guns of that fort, then,
can afford no protection against an invading
foe coming in that direction. The only place
where an effectual check could be established
against an attack by land forces, would be at
the old battle ground. Patapsco Neck, at that
place, is not mole than four or five hundred
yards wide. An entrenchment thrown up
there, which could be easily done, and manned
by sufficient force, and we'll supported by ar
tillery, would bid defiance to an enemy land
ing anywhere between Patapsco and Back
Rivers. These views are the more important,
just now, from the cloud that hangs over our
relations with Great Britain and Mexico.
