NUMBER 63S.
Capt. Erlcsson ana Cart. Coles.

IL was announced some time since in Eo.
glish PAPERS, that Capt. Coles, an English
man, claimed to be the inventor Of the re.
volving IurIet, as used in the Monitor. The
discussion on the subject has called out lhe
following letter from Capt Ericsson:
NEw YoRK, June IL, 1862.
AT the time when Captain Coles, In 1855,
prepared q stationary cupOla or shield for
floating batteries. the Emperor Of the French
had In his possession al elaborately nnished
drawing OF al impregnable floating battery,
made by my hands, and transmitted to His
Majesty from New York on the 26th of Sep
ieinber. 1854. The most remarkable fea.
tures Oi the Monitor were all combined In
tAe plan alluded 10. The vessel was CON-
posed of iron; its sides were inclined; It's
s,crn projected over the propeller or rudder
aifnrding absolute projections; the deck was
formed Of iron plates, bomb proof, aud in
the center was placed un iron turret sixteen
feet ia diameter. six inches thick, supported
on q centraFshait turned round by steam
powe: applied below; ordnance Of very
heavy caliber was applied within the turret
the aim being effected, as in the Monitor, by
turning the turret.
Strange 10 say, Captain Coles cannot
even claim the form OF the revolving turret
for the plan sent to the Emperor contained
cupola or semiglcba. aud not cyllndri-
cal iurret, as in the Monitor.
II is worthy of remark. that II was not
until 1889 that Captain Coles thought of 3
revolving turret or cupOia.
Let me add. that the Emperor acknowl-
edged the receipt Of my plans with great
prOmpiness, and paid me the highest COM
pliments on the occasion which have ever
received from any quarter.
Yours, very respectfully,
j, Ericsson.

A CALIFORNIA GENERAL.-A correspon.
dent OF the n. Y. Express thus mentions
the achievements Of General Nagle, Of
San Francisco, in the battle Of Chickahom-
my:
General Nagle's conduct in The battle OF
Saturday, (Casey's Divsion,) was said by
every one to be gallant in the extreme. He
led on bis Brigade, hat in hand. cheering
on bis men TO the most gallant Of charges.
and he was in tue most desperate part of
the fight, hut all were overpowered by
numbers Though the. most of General
Casey't Division behaved we'll, aud were
overpowered by superior numbers, yet a
part, und nbtedly, behaved very badly and
ran back like sheep Seven guns were lost
by Casey's; one. by COuch's Division. Gen.
eral Nagle's escapes we're wonderful. His
clothes we're perforated in at least dozen
places. lie was quite unwell at the time
Of the battle, but would not stay behind
The regiments Of hs Brigade particularly

EUROPEAN -Notwithstanding
the unsettled condition Of our National Of.

pour in from Europe With strong force.

that within The previous week over three

and the total number for the year, 70 far,
Is in round numbers Is 900. Up 10 the

LEAvENwoRTH, Jan. 2s.-The following
general order, issued by Major Gen. Hunter,
has caused a sensation in the civil and mill
tary circles:
In the expedition about to be started
South from this Department, called in the
newspapers, Gen. Lanes expedition, it IS
the intention Of the Major General COM
handing this Department, to command in
person, unless otherwise expressly ordered
by the Government. transportation not
having been supplied, we must go without
it. ALL tents, trunks, chests, chairs, camp
tables, camp clothes, &C., must be at once
stored or abandoned. The General Com
handing takes in his valIse but one change
of clothing, and no officer or soldier will
carry more. The surplus room in the
knapsacks must be reserved for ammunition
and provisions. Every officer and soldier
will carry his own clothing and bedding.
The General Commanding has applied to
the Government for six Brigadier Generals,
that his command may be properly organ
lied, and until their arrival it is necessary
that he should appoint acting Brigadier
Generals from the senior Colonies. To en-
able him to do this in accordance with the
order on the subject each Colonel will inn
mediately report the date of his commission.
