rNvULNERABLK ARMOR.

Notwithstanding the numerous experiment,
made in this country and Europe with projec-
tles and armor for vessels of war, it is yet q
matter Of doubt what sort of iron plating offers
tie most rosistaoce to shot. One point, however,
4 pretty definitely settled, and that is that ar
NOR whose chief characteristic 10 that it pre-.
Ieuts . slOpiDg surface to the enemy's guns
has little merit. The Gslena was built on this
principle, and proved less Invuluerable than q
good wooden ship; aud the KeOkuk, which was
constructed on the theory that comparatively
thin plates systematically put on are as good
a. heavier ones, also became q martyr TO the
progress of ideaA In England it has been dis
covered that solid A. inch armor splits like
glsss under the impact Of certain kinds Of
projeetilss, aud the contest at Charleston
demonstrated the fact that even eleven inches
Of iron, consisting Of divided plates enc inch
thick, can be knocked out Of shape.
The Navy Department, doubtless cleaning
knowledge from these circumstances, ia now
building ships which will have both the solid
Glsb of England aud the single plate Of Amer
ia-thst ia, half the armor will consist OF
inch plates aud the other half Of Al inch
pses. The manner in which the new 1000
tun ocean vessels are 10 be mailed 10 not YET
determined, but it will probably be in THU
islhiOn, if nothing il discovered meantime Il
prove il yalueess. War ships being built fol
fighting, every other consideration than power
70 offend and defend must be secondary Il
aOse necessities, and our aruored craft are
consequently not 90 comfortable as they might
b,
Next TO the protection Of the ship, iti
Offensive force 10 Of most importance. This
point, also, has given rise to great deal Of
