bers of our best artillerymen were con
tinually picked off by the enemy's rifles
as well as by cannon shot. and In order
70 put stop to the foolhardiness and
incautiousness OF the men, very in
genious contrivance was invented by
the Rev William Taylor, the coadju'
tor of Mr.. Denison In constructing the
first Big Ben bell. 1t was called the
rejecting spyglass. and by its simple
construction rendered the exposure OF
the sailors and soldiers who would look
over the parapet or other parts of the
works to observe the effect of theii
shots perfectly unnecessary, while an.
other form was constructed for the
purpose of allowing the gunner TO lay
or aim his gun in safety,
