specifically looking at the performances of the
Termagant for the success of private builders over
the naval architects Of our national establishments
The fact Isl from 1882 to 1916, the entire ship build
ing department of the navy was in the hands OF
quacks, amateurs, and expcrimentalists; whilst
those officers in the royal service, educated as
val architects, and supported by the country, pos
sessng talents Of the highest order and experience
the most matured, were not permitted even to ex-
press an opinion the subject. Every day is
throwing some new light on the errors of the
past, and firmly believe the reign of emPiricism
is over, and that better order Of things has com
menced. Nevertheless, cannot help feeling
that of the old eaven of navy office incapacity
still remains, and other changes are yet required
in the department Of the surveyor of the navy, be-
fore the naval construction of this country be
said to be in satisfactory position.
