Rritt~h Opinion OF Naval Chain Ar.
ntof-The s.nuncIr = OF Tho Alabama.

\
In the House OF Lords, On the 4su OF Julg,
the Earl OF Hard Efcke, aIrrrtiug to tho de.
tails Of the recent c0htlEct bet ween the Ala.
bsma and the kearsnrgc, asked the nonye
duke Ut tie head Of the admiralty whether
hls attention h ID been directed to the quea-
tIon Of protecting sbips-of war BIZ chain A.

bad been discussed In letter written in 1862
to the noble lord at the head Of the govern.
utnt D. Inc IRON master resident at Belfast
III which he drew attention to the important
results which might be gained b, suspendIns
chaius overa ships aile to act as i foil against

The Duke OF Somereet said the defense af-
forded b., The chain p1atin.. to the Kearsar.e
must have been very small, for It onlg ex-
tended over space about thiEty.slx feet In
length, and the chain was of the kind known
IS one and three-tonFth inch. The firing
from the Alabama couli not hare been good,
for this strip Of plating WAS only struck Iwic:
during the engagement; one Of the shots
glanced of, and the other, which was the
only one that hit the armor, fairly pierced It
ard lodged IN the side Of the vessel. at the
sane time. It Nas known that tho Alabama

very bad, and the vessel herself In a very
unfit state. Two or three yeafs
ago the admiralty made some experiments
with chain armor, md the result was that

It was knocked all to pieces, 20 that against
steel prujectiles it wouid afford no defense
whatever. It cid not ut all .foollo that, as

nothing, ard at long distances, as III this case,

rally had to decide wns-8iven q cersain
weight, how to apply it most effectively for
the aefcnfe OF ship. HeaE.l Some time
ago re noble earl opposite expressed doubt
whether guns weighing six and halt tons
each would not be found too heavy for broad
Side purposes. He had since ascertaile'i that
the two u-inch guns on board the kearsarge
one before and the other abaft the mafnmast,
weighed each seven and three quarter tons.
The real conclusions TO be drawn from the
coDflet between the Kea1ssrge and the Ala
bama were that very powerful guns and rery.

tue hesrsargr gave her great superiority over
the Alabama which moreover. was not

Should not have Its effect on money affairs In
the country at large.
But the change In the head OF the Trca-
sury has apparently removed the difficulty;
and as If 1t were resnlt, the price Of gold
goes steadily down, with now and then such
ast asmodic rise a. we should expect, in a
chronicslly falling market. And there is no
sprasent reason why It should not 70 on to
fall, I'LL 1t reaches reasonable figure. It
cannot be necessary, with national income
covering hail, our expenditures and moro,
with confidence between the National ,Trea-
eury and the monied men of the nation, TINT
gold should rule n4 uoH.
!; 1t thus cannot be seen rhy our financial
aaaira are rot in highly promising condl-
tton. And With the: Treasury eouud as a
basis, the war canuot well, with Gods ia.
