FORMER NAVAL TACTICS.
Sometimes Theory Was Converted
Into Practice and Then 1t Was Not.


From Temple Bar.
The line of battle simply meant that. up
on coming in touch of enemy. adj
miral formed his fleet in one long line, in
which each ship followed in the wake Of
the one Immediately preceding it, at sufii-
cient distaI ce to allow loom for -1aneuver-
ing. In this order the two fleets ranged
alongside of one another, discharging their
broads.des as they passed, until one line
was thrown into confusion, whereupon the
commander of the other hauled down his
signal for "a line head and hoisted that
for "a ger eral chase" which meant that
his ships were to close with those of the
enemy. Ind finish the business with the
graphing irCn and the cutlaSs. This was
a naval bs tile in theory; and, supposing
the antagonists really in earnest the the
DRY was capable of being converted into
extremely good practice. but in the eigh-
teenth century that WIS just what the
French rarely were.
The tradition of the English service was
that a commander should destroy his enc
my's ships; of the French, that he should
preserve lis own. Consequently French
admiral would never accept battle until he
had gained a position in which he could, at
any moment. run out of action before the
wind. and as an English admiral would
never break his own lire to force him,
most actions ended in the fleets deil.ng
past one another, the French bringing
down the English spars, the English hull
ing the French with every shot, until the
French, having, as they considered, made
pursuit impossible, put suddenly about and
ran before the wind to fulfill their destiny
of living to fight another day.
OF course, it was always open to deter
mined officer to disregard "the line ahead
and close with the enemy pell-reI by
means of a general chase Arson fell
back OF this in his battle with La jon
qu;ere and st. George. when he saw the
Frenchmen playing their old game of wait
ing upon the night; Hawke made use of it
on that winter afternoon when, with a gale
bowling on a lee shore. he followed Con-
fans through the shadows and between
the granite reefs into Quiberon bay, and
showed him his heels along the Barbary
coast.
