fair way to be gratified at no far distant pc
riod! How different might have been the his
tory ofErance, and the fortunes of the Orleans
family.
Itwasin July 1912 thatthe duchess left Neuil-
ly with erhusband to try the waters of Plombi-
eres Although it was journey for the res
toraton of her health, then sadly impaired
their reception en- route was enthusiastic and
cordial. "Triumphal arches were everywhere
erected and the carriage was surrounded by
an animated multitude" After thoughtfully
providing for the establishment of the duchess
and manifesting the most atfectonate solicit
tude for her welfare, the duke left Plombieres
on the 18th ofJuly. In letter to her mother
soon after she alludes with regret to this sep
aration ''for time, from the duke, her chill
dren and friends. 1t was destined to be a
final one from her noble husband On the
18th of July he was in Paris, making prepar.
ations to visit St. Omer, where he was to in
spect several regiments. Previous to his
journey he decided to take leave of the royal
family at Neuilly. While riding thither with
out escort, the horses took fright, the postil-
lion losing control of them, and the prince
leaping from the carriage, was thrown to the
ground, his head striking the pavement with
much violence. He was fatally injured, and
did not recover full consciousness after the ac-
cident. He died the same day at the early
age Of thirty-two.
The grief of the royal family, who were I'M
mediately summoned, was painful IN the ex-
treme The duchess was at once sent for
from Plombieres; but it was only by conceal
ing from her the news of her husbands death,
and urging her return on the plea of his i'll
ness, that she was able to endure the fatigue
and anxiety of the journey. Her intense sor-
row on learning her bereavement cannot be
described. 1t was only alleviated by the
sympathy of the no less afflicted king and
queen.
The news of this melancholy disaster pro-
duced a profound impression in France, and
was the subject of much comment and kindly
expression of feeling in England and the
United States. Just twenty years have
passed, and to many of us the time seems
short indeed, since the sad story was told of
the untimely death of the duke of Orleans.
We cannot forbear an allusion, in this place,
to a small media! in onr possession, which was
struck in Paris, in commemoration of this
sad event. On the diverse it bears the in
scription, in the margin:
IS. A. r. FND Pre- LIS GILES HRI DUO
D'ORLEANS."

All this at point blank range. And yet the
Keolrnk was the only vessel that was fatally
damaged by this terrific fire; and even she,
pierced and torn as she was, with nineteen
shots on the water line, had enough vitality
left to obey the. signal to retire and rejoin the
flagship, and It was not till next morning that
shs sank in the waves. The New Ironsides was
unmanagcable all the day, refusing to answer
her helm, and therefore she took no active part
in the fight discharging only one solitary broad
side at Fort Moultrie. Bat the seven vessels of
the Monitor pattern came out Of the fiery ordeal
almost unscathed. The only injury sustained
by them was by the indenting Of the turrets Of
some Of them to such an extent as TO prevent
their revolving.
What chance would feet of wooden war
vessels have stood in such belt Of fire and
under such weight of artillery, delivered at
close quarters? Why, half hundred ships-of-
war, subjected to such test, would have gone
to the bottom or been blown up. And, there
fore, for all such purposes of offence, the
wooden walls of England are Of no more value
than 80 many Roman galleys. The fight Off
Charleston harbor has sounded the knsll of
wooden war ships.
That eight Is pregnant with other lessons. II
teaches US that vessels Of the Monitor pattern
are comparatively impregnable, and that no
forts or defensive works can prevent their pas
sage, II the channels remain unobstructed. II
they could have been kept moving In circle,
- were the gunboats that captured the forts at
Hilton Head, delivering their fre as they
passed, they would not have been exposed to
one 1.-THE the risks they incurred while stationary
under the concentrated fire Of three hundred
guns. But there was no space for any such
maneuvre before Fort Sumter. Still, pronting
by that lesson. they should In any future attack
be kept moving up and down.
Looking over the whole field, what was the
pivotal point on which the failure or success Of
the attack depended Clearly II was the chan
mel distractions. Against the guns Of the forts
the armor of the iron-clads might have been .
complete defence; but, like Achilles, they were
vulnerable In the heel. We do not see, how
ever, why the same inventive genius that de-
vised the Monitors cannot overcome the new
difaculty. We suppose II would not require
any great exercise Of mechanical skill 70 CON

The effect of their guns on Fort Sumter was
20 destructive that If they could have kept up
the fight for an hour or two longer the rebel
fortress would have been rendered untenable.

hours firing On them. The guns Of the forts

The Fight or Charleston H0fA'Or-Ita
Practical and Scientific LesssAs.
The extraordinary combat maintainsdS last
week by eight small iron-clads, carrying siA'een
guns, with the innumerable batteries and power
full forts by which the entrance to Charlessau
harbor is defended. is one of the most remarHk.
able events of the great rebellion, prolific az
II has been In pr0digies Of various kinds
Nothing like 1t is to be found In the whole his
tory of naval warfare; and the fact that the
attack was repulsed, and that the pigmy assail-
ants were forced to haul of, does not detract
from the marvellousness of the enterprise, but
only sdds TO the lessons which may be learned
from the experiment, and which may be pro-
hted by in our future operations.
Let us look for moment at the facts Seven
little turreted Monitors, each carrying two guns;
another equally diminutive vessel, built on q
different modsi--the Keokuk-and an arInoFed
vessel-of-wsr-ths New Notwithstanding as
many guns - adj the rest combined, moved from
their anchorage within the bar of Charleston on
Tuesday, the 7th inst, and headed directly ~
ward the city. with instructions to get into .
good position to engage Fort Sumter. IneD-
deavoring to get into the desired position the
propeller screw Of tho foremost of them became
entanglsd in rope netting which the defenders
had placed across the channel. This rendered.
The vessel entirely uamsnngeabie, and for some
tins she drifted, without any motive power of
her own, till At last shegot extrcated. The other
vessels avoided being caught in the same trap.
They looked about for anothsr opening, but in
vain. They could not get to. the north of Fort
Sumter without penetrating this network barri-
cade; and to attempt that wosld have been to
sender the whole feet powerless. In this di-
lemma. they drew up against Fort Sumter at dis
tanoes ranging from three hundred to six hun
dred yards, and for half al houx maintained
most unequal contest against it. From Sumter,
Moultrie and three other powerful defensive
works they we're subjected tora' eoncentric fire
which would have sent to the bottom any
wooden feet that ever Bpcassedr the waves OF
ocean. No less than three thousand FIVE hum

could only return ut the rate of. oas to twenty.

must again earnestly admonish him that, failing
to do his duty, with all the means required to
do it thoroughly he will be called to strict

close of his appointed term, he may be consti-
