IN GENERAL.
Advantages OF Sea Power.

Spenser Wilkinson illustrates the eS-
traordinary influence of sea power by
reference to the American civil war. The
ordinary man might suppose that in civil
war, at any rate, sea power was not ma
terial factor, and that there, if any here,
land considerations alone decided the
struggle. Yet this was not really the case.
After showing how much the Danes were
able to do against Germany, owing to their
possession of sea power, Mr., Wilkinson
proceeds:
"The second war illustrates not the help
which the command of the sea gives to the
weaker military power but the terrific
force which it adds to the stronger. 1t Is
the American civil war The usual ex-
PLANTATION of this war is that the north was
able to overcome the south by the superior
numbers of its armies. But this Is less
than half the truth. The south was beaten
because as it had no feet, the north com
manded the sea. Lee was never beaten in
battle except when he invaded the north
ern states In Virginia he rcpulsed every
attack made upon him until y few days
before the end. Grant and Sherman in the
west defeated Confederate armies, Grant
gaining possession in 1862 and 1868 of the
upper half of the Mississippi and Farra-
gut with his feet oonquering the lower
half
"The conquest OF the Mississippi cut the
Confederacy in two and deprived the prin-
cipal eastern half of the resources of the
states west of the river Grant then de-
feated the Confederate army at Chatta-
nooga and left sherman in 1864 to push on
into the heart of the Confederate states, to
Atlanta, the chief railway center of the
south. The decisive blow, in military
sense, was inflicted by Sherman when he
marched from Atlanta to Savannah, and
then from Savannah right through the
seaboard states to Raleigh in North Caro-
lima.
"This great raid was possible only be-
cause Sherman was certain when he
reached the sea to find a Federal fleet from
which he could draw supplies, and which
would then be n sure base for him as he
advanced northward parallel with the
coast The decisive military blow there
FORE depended on the fleet. Grants army,
too, was always during his campaigns
against Lee supplied by the sea. Ever
these advantages would have led to no de
cisive result had it not been for the block
ade of the Confederate coasts. AS soon as
the war began the blockade was pro
claimed. The Federal navy, small at the
outset, was rapidly increased, and by thu
end of 1862 the blockade was effective
along all the 2 400 miles of coast from thu
Potomac to the Rio Grande. BY the block
AIDE the south was 'arved. "-LondoI
