The Armies In Winter Quarters.

The closing week of 1861 found the
sontendlng armies of the civil war in
winter quarters, Federal and Confed-
crate facing each other or prepared
to do so.
The Confederates were everywhere
on the defensive. fighting on their own
soil 1t was policy for them to play
waiting game. The enemy must at
tack them in order to prosecute the
war On the other hand. the policy
Of the Federals was aggressive, except
around Washington. The capital must
be kept out Of the hands Of the Con-
federates at all cost. An extensive
chain of forts was built on the Vir.
ginia side Of the Potomac, inclosing
Washington in a semicircle. These
forts were built by the troops lying in
ramps around Washington and Alex
Rndria. The troops were kept under
constant drill In the west the troops
IN the great camps were also drilled.
With view to assuming the offensive
at a days notice. The leaders Of the
brigade and divisions were nearly all
officers of the regular army. The lead
ers in the Confederate army were also
officers trained at West Point. most Of
whom had seen service in Mexico

blockaders on the gulf coast were
very vigilant. About the close of the
first year they were organized into two
divisions, one called the East Gulf
squadron and the other the West Gulf
squadron.
The Warships' Attacks on the Coast.
The two successes Of the navy in
battle during the year were not gained
by vessels assigned to duty as block
sders. They were won by naval ex-
petitions fitted out specially to make
conquests on the coast. On Aug. 1920
the feet commanded by Commodore
Stringham sailed up to the North Car
olina coast at Hatteras and bombarded
Forts Hatteras and Clark. which
guarded the channel to Pamlico sound.
By a clever stroke in sailing he
brought his vessels into position so
that they concentrated their FIRE upon
the forts. but escaped the missiles
which the Confederate guns hurled at
them. This was the frst naval victory
Of importance in the war. It was also
the first success at arms Of Importance
which the north could boast.

south, at Manassas. 1t is true that the
COnfederates did not follow up their
advantage at Bull Run and capture
Washington, distant only twenty miles.
But that was not the game which
Beauregard was playing that day. He
was attacked by strong force which
had marched out Of Washington In
tending to go straight across Virginia
to Richmond Since Beauregard held
up this march when 1t was only day
old he deserved khe credit for victory.

army which General Nathaniel Lyon
led against him. Lyons object was to
prevent the Confederates under Nc
Culloch and General Sterling Price
from getting a foothold in southwest
ern Missouri. Lyon made q good fight
and was himself killed in charge.
His force was outnumbered and was
compelled to retreat. This battle was
sometimes called 'the Bull Run Of the
west"
In another month the affair at Balls

asters of the year on land. There was
nothing important at issue at Balls
