AN ANCIENT IRONCLAD.
The First Armored Vessel Was
Constructed Way Back II 1885.

The idea of protected ships, such as
the modern men of war, is by no
means an absolutely new one. This
is proved, says the Western Mail, OF
Cardiff, by the fact that an armored
vessel was constructed, though crude
w. of course. as far back as 1885, by
shipwright of Antwerp during the
wars between the Spaniards and the
Dutch. The greater part OF the Meth
erlands had come into the possession
of the House of Hapsburg IN l4l1, put
in the early part of the sixteenth cen
fury it passed 10 the Spanish crown.
At this time the principles of the Re
formation had spread throughout the
lowlands, and when the Spaniards IN
stituted the inquisition there, disturb
auces broke out. The Spanish sol
diery pillaged the towns of the Meth
erIands in their work Of suppresSlng
the rebellion, and Antwerp being
marorayiate, suffered greatly. In the
summer of 1855 it was invaded by the
Spaniards, both by land and water,
and the people of Antwerp built the
first protected ship on record In an at
tempt to break through the line OF be-
sieeers on the river. 1t was a craft OF
unusual size, with fiat bottom, its
sides armed with iron plates fastened
| into great beams of wood. When I'm
| isheG, the builders thought it a float
| ing castle, impregnable to the artli-
lery and missiles of those days, which
should crush all opposition, as it con
! tanned great number of men, some
of whom were placed like sharpshoot-
ers in the tops of the masts, and the
rest protected by the bulworks.
They were so confident that the
craft would rout the enemy that they
called it 'Finis Belli," thinking it
no doubt would put an end to the war.
Unfortunately, however, the early
ironclad proved disastrous failure
getting stuck upon bank of the
Scheldt after very short and unhap
py career. The Spaniards were great
iy amused with the untimely end o.
the great vessel, while the brave
burghers of Antwerp changed the
name from "Finis Belli' to "PerdItt
Expensai," or money Thrown
Away" The crew then deserted the
ship, and the Spaniards, after defeat
ing the Netherlanders in naval bat
tie, carried the monster in triumph t.
the camp of Alexander of Parma
where is became one of the sights o
the times. The city of Antwerp wa
taken August l., 1885, and SO the frs
ironclad on record came to an unfor
tunate end.
