THE DEFENCEs OF MOBILE.

1t will be a work Of time and some mag.
nitude to effectually defend the various en-
frances by which hostile gun vessels can
easily gain admittance to Mobile bay. As
we briefly show elsewhere, the city can he
approached by the Choctaw Pass route,
and by the way of Spanish river from above;
and, in fact, can be shelIed by ten.inch
Columbiads on board vessel laying off in
Spanish river, right opposite. The best
precaution of security against SO disastrous
an occurrence, then, is to defend the city
itself, without waiting for the securing of
the passes into the bay.
The city can be quickly and effectually
defended against naval force by one bat
terry Of Columbiads, eight or ten inch, on
Choctaw Point; and battery CT lighter
pieces on one of the grass islands from
which the Spanish River Pass may be COM
manded. Then we shouldahaye movable
battery of effective pieces in the city it
self.
We do not urge that there is much pro-
liability Of the city being attacked, but it
is a patent possibility that it can be, and
it is wise to guard against it. Fort Nor
gan was erected for the protection of the
city, and the idea of its erection was to de-
fend the city against attack. The progress
of modern warfare, as effected by improved
war shipping, disappoints to a degree the
design of that fortress, and other works are
now needed. The object of Fort Morgan
is the defence of the city, the object of the
works at the mouth Of Mobile bay, it is al
$50 worth protecting by works at other
points, works-which would be more ef-
fectual for the purpose than Morgan and
