MODERN SHIP ARTiLLERY.-rhe heaviest
shot we won our sovereignty of the seas with are
mere toys compared with those now in use Brit
Ism ship OF IO4 guns, OF 1905, was armed as fol-
low: 2S long 32- FOUNDERS on the lower dock 20 10
Founders on the middle deck, 80 I2-pounders on
the main deck, 6 l2-pounders on the quarter deck.
= I2-pounders on the fOrecastle, and lS- pound
er carrOnades on the pnop; broaiSidc force ,OI2
lbs Contrast this ships power tand she PLAYED a
most conspicuous part at Trafalgar) with any {
our modern screws" Take the Agamemnon, 81
guns, as a familiar example. Her arrnament con-
siSts OF 30 Is Founders, and SO 81 Founders, be-
SIDES one 10 inch piyot-gun, and one S-inch ditto
on her upper deck. Both Of these pivot-guns throw
68-pounder ball. This ships force can be known
to an ounce; and "a she 10 one of a numerous
class now in the navy, may congr ,tulate the
ultIOn IN having at this period such feet of PEI
suahrrs, these fine vessels must prove TO be-
whenever their wei hry arguments are brought TO
bear upon the Eastern or any other vexed question.
Thus her 81 65-poundprs. which include me- pi-
vot guns, will throw l76 lbs. If shot and her SO
32-puunders will throw eSS lbs. making grand
total of 4,O64 lbs. for he entire armament, or q
OBJ lbs, nearly one ton OF metal as her broad
side force. These figures msy not be exactly co.,
rect, as 6S-pound shot are cured." or Da TALLY
hU low; but the loss in weight is more than Comp
ensated destructive nssi by the extra size of
the ball. So thar, after N king allowance, we find
that our "screws" are no nIggIrds with their shot,
but that they throw excess of 1000 lbs. of iron
At every br0adSde over one of Nelson's best ships
IF l04 guns. When, in addition to this startling
disparity III the destructive force of the ships of
the two epocIs, it remembered that the modern
90 possesses motive power in the screw that
renders her terrific batteries doubIy effective, we
can form a rough idea of the resistless power now
concentrated in ships of of the Agamemnon
class. Many of the vessels carry few guns, but
they are of the heaviest caibre, and throw
most destructive weight of metal.
