ourselves with one more illustration.
The coasts of this country are dotted
round with Marte'Io towers, designed for
protection against invaders. They have
become perfectly useless. A single mo-
dern projectile would smash them to
pieces, and they could not carry our heavy
ordnance. But there is no reason in the
world why The vulnerable parts Of the
coast should not be studded with sunk
works in the form of Moncritf gun-piis,
capable of carrying any ordnance, alike
invisible and impregnable. This inven-
ton, in fact, bids fair to have one most
benefcent result. 1t may make the de-
fence far stronger than The attack, and to
England, whose motto is "Defence, not
Defiance" this will be the most invaluable
of all boons.

THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT
IN SPAIN.
THE AUSTRIAN PRESS.

II AN L hLCS'
die Neue Freie PreSSe-Vienna, Oct. 9.l
When in former times a revolutionary
outbreak took place in Europe, a people
broke lis chains and overlhrew an un-
worthy government, a panic seized not
only on Cabinets and the so-called Con-
SrrvatIve circles, but also on the business
world. 1t was as if the whole society of
Europe had received a terrible blow, and
as if it were shaken to its foundation.
Statesmen turned pale, the Stocks fell,
business stood still, and everybody took
to measures Of precaulion, as if it were
requisite to protect oneself from a con-
fagration threatening all. The way in
which the news Of the expulsion Of Queen
Isabella from Spain and the victory of
the revolution in that country was receiv-
ed by the Governments and public opinion
III Europe, announces a great and power
tai advance. In former times the Cabi-
nets would have Immediately deliberated
how the con1agration in the Peninsula
could be best distinguished, and they
would not have had The least scrnple in
menacing t3e revolutionary country, in
the name of the violated rights of crown
and altar, with punishment Ivy interven-
ton. But during the last twenty years
the policy of Governments as we'll as of
public opinion has undergone a whole
some change. Inst ad of being Mortified
at the revolution in Spain, there is an evil
dent feeling of satisfaction thai a reaction
AIRY, blind, abSoiutist Government has been
overIhrown. People nave become con
vlnctd that a bad, worthless Government
is a far greater evil than a transitory re-
voIulion, and nowhere is there any other
wish entertained than that the Spanish
people may succeed in definitely consti-
tutlng themselves in liberty. The Span
iSh revolution is the frstin Europe which
was greeted by the European exchanges
with "a rise in the funds.
Like public opinion, the Governments
also assumed a good attitude. The di-
plOmacy of the cabinets allowed the Bour-
bons to fall as the country which was OPP
pressed by them let them fall. No am
basSadors were recalled from Madrid;

Sanu pounds Tor every gun prOteCleu'
Now, Captain Moncrittf has, in all pro-
liability, rendered us absolutely lndrpen-
dent of these elaborate and costly con-
structions so far as regards land f%ortifica-
tons.
There is, in fact, but one material de-
feet alleged against Captain Moncrieff's
system. 1t affords, it is said, no protec-
ton against vertical firing" AS the
Moncr'etf gun-pits are at present con-
Structed, the top, from which the gun
Uses, is wholly u recovered. A shell, there
fore, accurately fired from a mortar might
be dropped vertically into the pit, and of
course would in1Ict terrible destruction.
Now, IN the first place, even admitting
this danger, Captain Moncrieff will still
have effected an enormous advance on
the present system. In order to guard
against shells in our existing Notifications
we not only build up a wall in front, but
construct Il strong roof overhead, and the
gun-chamber thus protected becomes a
casenate. We have, therefore, two weak
points, The front and the roof; but oithese
two, even al The worst, Captain Moncrletf
absolutely annlhijates one. He removes
all danger in front, and leaves US with
only the roof to protect. ....
Let us next glance at a few of the tao
ticaI results which may be expected from
this invention. 1t Will be Obvious how
momentous must be the eff ct on the
movements of IN army of the circum-
stance that all the enemy's guns and tat
teries may be completely hidden from
view. A regiment may he marching over
= sl,~l, ly u.In1 .t i,,r ,,.,,l ,.,,, ,v,,.
a level plain, unsuspiclous of anything
but a perfectly unbroken surface, when
suddenly a hundred heavy pieces of ar.
tllery may start from the earth as if by
magic, and deliver the most accurate aud
most deadly fire. We have heard Of
masked batteries, but under this system
every gun in position may he masked. In
fact, every undulaliOn and every hiIIock
III a defended position may become a
battery, at once more secure and more
powerful than he Plymouth forts. More
over, two or three guns under this system
may be m, I'd 10 do the work of several.
The effect Of IN embrasure is, of neceS-
Slty, to coufne the range of a gun, but
under this system a gun will range round
all the points of the compass ConSe-
qaentIy me whole IRE OF a dozen guns
may be successfully concentrated upon
any single point within their range, and
great economy may thus be effected in
the number of guns rrqnired 1t was
conclu>iveIy shown at Shoeburyness HE
other day thai the movements of the gun
may be cff'ctuaIIy directed by a single
word Of command from an Office outside
the pit. 1t would be as easy TO direct ten
or twenty guns al once as to direct one,

into play Ill utVtloIllnS III. 40 TAKE d
homely illustration, let the reader imagine
a child's rocking-horSe with a toy rifle
man mounted on the tail let him suppose
that the rockers are weighted in front, so
that the natural position of the horse is
with its head down and its heels in the
air. The. rifeman on lis tail will then be
raised above the body of the horse, and
may be supposed to be p%eering above a
parapet or hillock in order 10 fire his rifle.
Let it be Supposed that the force of the
rec0il is communicated to the horse it
rolls back on its rockers into a level posi-
ton, the seat of the rihemau is lowered,
and he again becomes concealed behind
the ground in front of him. In This posi-
ton he is fixed by a catch until his rifle
is again loaded. The catch is then set
free, and he rolls up again to fire another
shot, and again to recoll into safety. The
rifeman in this Illustration corresponds
to the 7-inch or 12-inch WooIwich gun
the rockers of the rockInr-horSe are the
"elevalors'' mentioned IN the descriptions
we have published. In this simple CON
ception lies the substance Of the inveu-
ton, and the reader, we think, will have
no difficulty in following us in the deduc-
tions we proceed to draw.
The first effect Of this discovery is that
any gun may be placed anywhere, so as
to be absolutely im%pregnahle to horizontal
firing. Hitherto, if a gun was to he
brought into action it has been necessary
10 provide for it a platform ut least on u
level with the surface of the ground. The
gun and gunners must, therefore, either
he wholly unprotected, in which case The
gun is said to be mounted en- barbette, or
a wall Of some sort must be butt up in
front to protect them, and a hole pierced
in the wall for the gun to fire through.
In practice it has been found excessively
difficult to provide "A wall of sufficient
strength to afford complete protection.
The hole in the wall, or the embrasure,
is always IA weak point. AT the best, it
affords a convenient mark for the enemy's
aim, and, being ofnecesSily funnel shaped,
it not only admits his projecti!es, but
actually assists their entry. But by Cap
tain Moncrieff'S invention the gun and
gunnerS are placed below ground. The
gun rolls up above the mouth of a pit to
deliver its charge, and then sinks again.
One lookout man, whose head it would
always be easy to conceal, is sufficient to
give information TO the men in the pit, and
to direct the whole movement of the gun.
There is, therefore, no need of a wall,
for there remains nothing to protect,
nothing for the enemy to fire at, nothing
even for him to see. His proiectiIeS will
either fly safe over the head of the pit,
or pitch harmIessIy into the ground
around it.. The reader must next he re-
minded that we are at present spending

A Literary Festival in France.

An international literary festival is about to
be held at st. Remy, in Provence, sin honor
pf the poets and literary celebrities of Spain
Ind France" The origin of the festival is the
Reception accorded to Mistral, the Provencal
poet (author, among other works, Of
F'Mireille,' the poem ON which M. Gounod's
bpera of the same name is founded), when, a
Jew months since, he visited Spain. Mistral,
and several Provencal poets in his name, now
invite to St. Remy the following Spanish
huthors: Don Victor Balsguer, of BARGE
iona, "author of history OF Catalonia, in
Fols. 8so," poet and oaator, especially
known by his Catalonian drama, ''Don
but ut this winter in Paris. 2. Don
antonio de Torres, editor OF the PdrO BtSba-
ense, poet and publicist. 3 Don Albert de
Duintana, OF the town of TOrvella, poet, orator,
Ind agronomist, deputy of the province of
birona, and author of a report on the Universal
Exhibition of 1867. 4. Don Manuel Adgelon,
bovelist and justice of the peace. 3. Don
Eduart Vidal, one of the first writers for the
Eatalonian stage. 6. Don Jose Gorilla, lyrical
IND dramatic author. The list of French poets
% be invited is not yet complete; but Timothee
Hrimm, of lie Petit Journal, has been asked.
He expresses doubts as TO whether he shall
ccept, alleging as reason for refusing
That if he once went to Provence he
s not at all sure that he should like
10 come back. The festival is to begin
fifth procession of guests" who will be re-
eived at the Hotel de Vile by the Mayor; and
the poets are to be afterwards entertained with
music, dancing, fireworks, and bullfght 4
"a Prorencale-that is to say, without blood
hed. This last exhibition, however agreeable
the bulls, will scarcely, we should think,
blease the Spanish poets In the letters of
Envita,ion addressed to the French journalists
ID is announced that ''les plus jolies Proven
tales Sc preparant a danser les premieres
,uadrilles avec les poetes ct les journallstes de
Paris" +" or, in the vernacular, that the pref
hest girls of Provence are prepared to dance
alists OF Paris.
