A thrombus, or blood clot stops bleeding.
It keeps blood inside a damaged blood vessel, and stops the hemorrhage.
A blood clot is the final product of the coagulation.
There are  aggregated platelets and red blood cells.
Together with fibrin they form a plug, and stop the bleeding.
A thrombus is a healthy response to injury to prevent bleeding, but can be harmful in thrombosis, when clots block blood flow through otherwise normal blood vessels.
The Mud March (January 20, 1863 – January 23, 1863) was an attempt by Union Army Major General Ambrose Burnside to attack Lee's Confederate Army of Northern Virginia.
After the disastrous defeat of the Army of the Potomac at the Battle of Fredericksburg, Burnside was anxious to redeem himself.
He planned for his Army to make a winter march across the Rappahannock River on December 30, 1862.
But he had not informed President Abraham Lincoln of his plan.
Lincoln called him back.
Three weeks passed and this time, with Lincoln's implied approval, the army marched southward.
However, winter rains made the roads nearly impassable.
After four days the attempt ended in failure.
On December 15, 1862, Burnside's Union army withdrew from the Battle of Fredericksburg back to Falmouth, Virginia.
It was a defeat for Burnside and a win for Lee.
Union losses were more than twice as many.
In total Burnside lost about 12,600 Union soldiers; killed, wounded, or missing.
Morale in the Union army was very low that winter.
There was political pressure from Washington to continue the “On to Richmond” offensive that had failed up that point in time.
The Northern newspapers reported that 75,000 Confederate soldiers from Lee's army had been sent to reinforce the North Carolina coast.
Burnside wanted to move against Lee while the Army of Northern Virginia was weakened.
He personally scouted the area above Falmouth for the best place for his army to cross the Rappahannock.
As late as January 15, he was still looking at places to cross.
Confederate sharpshooters reported seeing Burnside near Banks ford and wondered what the General was up to.
Finally, Burnside decided on Banks ford and U.S. ford.
He sent troops to Muddy ford to draw attention away from his planned crossing points.
On the morning of January 20 the army began to move.
The march
Burnside gave the order which read in part: "the great and auspicious moment has arrived to strike a great and mortal blow to the rebellion, and to gain that decisive victory which is due to the country."
At dawn on January 21, the plan called for five pontoon bridges to be assembled at the river's edge allowing two "grand divisions" (two corps each) to cross the river in four hours.
The night before, it began raining.
By the morning of the 21st, the roads were rapidly becoming too muddy to use.
The five pontoons and 150 supporting pieces of artillery that were supposed to be in place had not arrived.
The pontoons that did managed to arrive were not enough to make even one bridge.
Double and triple teams of horses were hitched to each pontoon wagon.
In some cases 150 soldiers would try to help the horses move one boat.
They could only move a few feet before horses and men were exhausted.
The rain turned out to be a Nor'easter that caused very heavy rainfall for two days.
Men and wagons were stuck in knee-deep mud.
Burnside kept pushing his troops to move forward but even soldiers carrying only their haversack and rifle were soon exhausted.
By this time Burnside had lost the advantage of surprise.
This allowed Lee time to strengthen his lines.
He also positioned sharpshooters to harass the Union soldiers that did manage to arrive across the river.
In addition, Confederate soldiers jeered and made fun of Burnside's failure.
The put up signs saying "This way to Richmond" and "Burnside's Army Stuck in the Mud"!
The road down to the river was in complete chaos.
Wagons, artillery and men clogged the road being unable to move.
Some mules and horses dropped dead in the road, completely exhausted after being driven to pull a load they could not move.
After three days of this, Burnside decided to help raise morale by issuing whiskey to his troops.
This turned out to be another bad idea.
Soldiers got drunk and started fighting with each other.
At times entire regiments were engaged in fistfighting.
By the fourth day, January 23rd, Burnside realized he could not get cross the Rappahannock.
He finally cancelled the order.
Just before moving his army south in January, Burnside had offered his resignation to Lincoln.
President Lincoln declined, and Burnside, apparently satisfied he had Lincoln's approval, went back to his command.
After the failure of the Mud March, there was good deal of criticism by some of Burnside's highest officers.
Burnside then had Order Number 8 drawn up along with his resignation.
He then went to Washington.
In a meeting on January 24, Burnside told Lincoln he either had to approve the order or accept his resignation.
The President did not accept the order and instead of having Burnside resign, he had him take a leave of absence.
Burnside's Order No.
8 directed the dismissal of Generals Joseph Hooker, John Newton, William T. H. Brooks and John Cochrane.
It also relieved Generals William B. Franklin, William Farrar Smith, Samuel D. Sturgis and others, from their duties.
On January 25, 1863, President Lincoln issued General Order No.
It relieved General Burnside of command of the Army of the Potomac.
It relieved General Edwin Vose Sumner of his command; at his own request.
It next relieved General Franklin of his command.
Lastly, it assigned General Joseph Hooker to command the Army of the Potomac.
In a White House gathering that evening, a friend of Burnside's, Henry J. Raymond, a New York politician, got Lincoln's attention and told the President that Joseph Hooker was unfit to command the Army.
He told Lincoln there were many things going on in the Army of the Potomac that the President was not aware of.
He then talked about General Hooker's near-treasonable comments.
Lincoln leaned over and placing his hand on Raymond's shoulder said quietly: “This is all true, Hooker does talk badly; but the trouble is stronger with the country to-day than any other man.”
Raymond then asked what the country would think of this if they knew.
Lincoln said “The country would not believe it; they would say it is all a lie.”
The Army of the Potomac, now under Hooker, would meet the Army of Northern Virginia again in the spring at the Battle of Chancellorsville.

Because of Kamilova, two corruption cases were started against local government officials.
On September 6, 2010, police stopped Kamilova in her car.
Kamilova’s 21-year-old son, Shohruhon, was also in the car.
The police told Shohruhon they found heroin in the car.
The police beat Kamilova and her son, and took them to jail.
In jail, they made Kavilova listen to the screams of prisoners being beaten, because they wanted her to confess.
At the trial, the police did not agree about where they found the drugs.
An activist at the trial said the police put drugs on Kamilova.
Drug convictions and planting drugs on human rights activists are routine in Uzbekistan.
A court sentenced Kamilova to eleven years in prison.
Because it is a drug charge, she cannot get an appeal.

In military terminology, a demonstration is an attack or show of force on a battlefield designed to trick or mislead an enemy.
Unlike a feint, a demonstration does not make contact with the enemy.
It is usually used as a supporting attack intended to deceive an enemy into thinking the demonstration is the main attack.
An example of a demonstration in the American Civil War was at the Battle of Gettysburg.
On July 2, 1863, General Robert E. Lee ordered Lieutenant General Richard S. Ewell to stage a demonstration against Culp's Hill on the Union right flank.
This was in support of Lieutenant General James Longstreet's main attack against the Union left flank.
A demonstration does not make actual contact with an enemy and the demonstrating force may be used elsewhere on the battlefield.
In April 1945, the amphibious attack on Okinawa involved landing craft that made a demonstration on the southeast coast of the island.
Once they had drawn Japanese troops away from the actual landing site, they returned to serve as reserves in the actual landing.
A full force is often not necessary to deceive the enemy.
For example, in modern warfare, the noise of helicopters often gives away troop movements by air.
However, in a demonstration, empty helicopters may land and take-off several times leading the enemy to believe there is a large scale attack coming.
Simulation devices (when available) may be used to trick enemy reconnaissance.
For example, during Operation Overlord in World War II inflatable tanks, fake radio chatter and dummy paratroopers which made the sounds of rifle fire when hitting the ground.
Without enemy contact, it is harder to convince an enemy the demonstration is a real attack.
At Gettysburg, Lee's orders to Ewell on July 1 had been contradictory and confusing.
If practicable, Ewell was to take the heights but not to bring on a general engagement.
Ewell took that to mean a demonstration.
On July 2, Lee made himself clearer.
Ewell was to demonstrate against the Union right side to prevent General George G. Meade from transferring troops to the left side of the line, where the main Confederate attack was planned.
Ewell's orders were to attack if the opportunity presented itself by the demonstration not getting results from the Union commander.
Ewell apparently decided the demonstration had not worked and attacked.
A demonstration is often discovered earlier than a feint.
A feint has to appear real to the enemy so contact is often necessary to continue the deception.
A feint must be of great enough strength to convince the enemy it is a real attack.
The key is to show the enemy what it expects to see.
A demonstration may need be to be only long enough to get the enemy to hesitate.

The Battle of Falling Waters (July 6, 1863 – July 16, 1863), also called the Battle of Williamsport and the Battle of Hagerstown, was fought as part of the Gettysburg Campaign during the American Civil War.
It was an inconclusive battle in that it did not end in a clear victory for either side.
Having been defeated at the Battle of Gettysburg, General Robert E. Lee's army retreated along the Fairfield Road toward Hagerstown and Williamsport, Maryland.
Blocked from escaping into Virginia by the flooded Potomac River, Lee's forces created a defensive line with their backs to the river.
The Union army was cautiously following Lee and arrived in the area beginning on July 12.
There were a number of skirmishes and heavy fighting on July 13.
That evening the river was low enough and Lee's army began crossing into Virginia.
On July 14, Union cavalry attacked the Confederate rearguard taking about 700 prisoners.
By late 1862, Virginia was running out of food to feed its army.
Lee's horses were dying of disease because they had little or no fodder.
The cavalry and artillery units had to be widely scattered behind his lines in order to find food for the horses.
In the winter of 1863, food trains from the south were becoming more and more scarce.
His men were living on rations of one-quarter pound of salted meat per day.
Confederate President Jefferson Davis and his Secretary of War James Seddon wanted to send detachments from Lee's army to other more successful war fronts.
Lee was opposed to the idea.
Because of increased activity by the Union Army of the Potomac recently, he could not afford to weaken his army any further.
In June 1863, Lee launched his most ambitious plan of the war.
He and his Army of Northern Virginia invaded the North for a second time.
His first invasion ended at the Battle of Antietam in September 1862.
This time he wanted to take the war out of Virginia and bring it into the Northern states.
Virginia had been ravaged by war and Lee's army could no longer find food and supplies.
He also wanted to defeat the Army of the Potomac on its own soil.
This would demoralize the North and possibly bring an end to the war.
However, his defeat at the Battle of Gettysburg ended heavy losses.
The south lost 22,198 soldiers (killed, wounded, captured or missing).
Lee took what supplies his army had taken from the Pennsylvania countryside and turned south for the safety of Virginia.
On July 4, 1863, following three days of battle at Gettysburg, the two armies watched each other from opposing ridges.
The Union commander, General George G. Meade, sent out skirmishers to probe the Confederate lines.
But no order was given to attack.
Meade knew the Confederates would be hard to dislodge from a defensive position.
The Confederate army would probably have welcomed an attack so as to repay their terrible losses they suffered the day before.
But Lee's main concern was getting his army and their captured supplies back to Virginia.
Lee knew it was extremely dangerous to retreat in front of an enemy army.
Lee gave detailed instructions on how the retreat would be accomplished.
The Confederate Army of Northern Virginia was to hold its position on Seminary Ridge all day on July 4th.
Confederate General John D. Imboden's cavalry brigade arrived at Gettysburg on July 3, too late to take part in the battle.
Because his cavalry unit was fresh, Lee assigned Imboden the task of escorting and protecting the wagon train of wounded soldiers back to Virginia.
Under cover of a  heavy rainstorm, Imboden's 2,100 cavalrymen and 23 cannon left the battlefield the afternoon of July 4th.
They escorted the  long train of wagons and ambulances with the wounded and foodstores over the muddy roads to Williamsport.
During the trip the wagon train was attacked by small units of Union cavalry several times.
When he arrived at Williamsport on the afternoon of the 5th, he found the Potomac was flooded and could not be crossed.
The rest of Lee's army followed on the night of July 4-5, screened by J.E.B. Stuart's Confederate cavalry.
At Williamsport
Imboden, learning that a 3,000 strong Union cavalry was approaching, formed a semicircle to defend the town.
He managed to fend them off until nightfall when a brigade of Confederate cavalry arrived to drive them off.
By July 11, most of Lee's infantry had reached Williamsport.
He strengthened the defenses and waited for the Potomac river to go down so they could cross.
Meade’s army reached Williamsport on the 12th and began probing the Confederate defenses.
The Potomac finally was low enough to cross on July 13.
A pontoon bridge had been constructed by Confederate engineers about  downstream at Falling Waters.
At both locations the Confederate army began crossing the river that evening.
At Falling Waters
The last of Lee's forces to cross the Potomac was his rearguard.
This was a force of about 3,000 men commanded by Major General Henry Heth.
They took their positions on the ridge behind Falling Waters after marching all night.
On the morning of July 14, Meade was surprised to learn Lee had withdrawn most of his army across the Potomac.
He immediately ordered two companies of Michigan cavalry under the command of a newly promoted General George Armstrong Custer to attack.
The cavalry charged up the ridge to attack Heth's Confederates but were cut to pieces.
Custer dismounted his cavalry and proceeded to fight on foot.
At first the Confederate casualties were light.
But in heavy fighting Confederate General J. Johnston Pettigrew, who commanded a North Carolina brigade under Heth, was mortally wounded.
Additional Union forces arrived and in over two hours of fighting, over 500 Confederates were captured.
Heth's men, carrying the wounded Pettigrew, withdrew over the river ending the battle.
Major General Hugh Judson Kilpatrick, Custer's commanding officer, sent only two companies of cavalry against the two brigades of Confederates at Falling Waters.
It was a lost opportunity and he did not wait for more units to arrive.
To cover up his mistake, he claimed that his division took more than 1,500 prisoners.
In an unusual move, Lee refuted this claim in the Northern newspapers.
A correspondent for the New York Times gave yet another account: "The charge made upon the earthworks was one of the most gallant on record -- a squadron of fifty-seven men charging upon three or four brigades behind earthworks, killing one Major-General, (Pettigrew,) capturing more than 1,000 prisoners, and strewing the field with the killed and wounded of the enemy."

Rasha Sharbaji, also Shurbaji or Chorbaji, (Arabic: رشا شربجي) (born 1982 in  Darayya, Syria) is a Syrian mother.
When Sharbaji went to get a passport, she was arrested with her children, to put pressure on her husband.
Sharbaji's husband died in 2014.
Sharbaji was born in 1982.
She is from the town of Darayya, a suburb of Damascus in Rif Dimashq governorate.
On May 22, 2014, Sharbaji went to the immigration and passport center in Damascus to get a passport.
When she tried to get a passport, she was arrested with her children.
She was arrested because her husband was against the government during the revolution.
Sharbaji was pregnant with twins.
They wanted to arrest her husband, Osama Abbar, so they put Sharbaji in prison.
They took Sharbaji's children and put them in SOS Village, an orphanage in Qodsaya.
They did not let the family see the children.
The Syrian police took Sharbaji to the political security branch in Damascus.
Then they took Sharbaji to the Air Force Intelligence prison at al-Mezze military airport in Damascus.
Sharbaji's husband Osama died in October 2014.
He drowned in the Mediterranean Sea while trying to migrate to Europe.
The Human Rights and Democracy Office in the US State Department asked Noor al-Khatib, from the Syrian Network for Human Rights for important cases of detention.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights nominated Sharbaji, and also the cases of Dr. Rania Abbasi and Dr Faten Rajab for the FreeThe20 campaign.
The State Department chose Sharbaji.
Sharbaji was freed in February 8, 2017, in an exchange of prisoners.
The exchange took place outside of Hama, Syria.
Forty-five pro-government prisoners made up of women and children were exchanged for 55 women and children that oppose the government.
The opposition kidnapped the women as a bargaining chip to bring back their own women.
According to a February 2017 interview with Sharbaji in Syria Direct, Shabaji's husband worked with the opposition as a weapons trader, smuggling weapons to rebel areas.
He was a member of the Darayya-based rebel group Liwaa Shuhadaa al-Islam, and helped the rebels move the injured to Lebanon and deliver humanitarian relief supplies.
The Elizabeth Morgan case was a local and international child custody contest between Elizabeth Morgan and Eric Foretich over their daughter, Hilary Antonia Foretich.
It lasted from 1983 to 1997 and took place in Washington D.C. and later in Christchurch, New Zealand.
It cost the parties over $4 million in legal fees.
The trials and hearings generated more than 4,000 pages of transcripts.
In excess of 1,000 news, magazine and legal articles about the case were published.
Custody struggle
In 1987, Hilary's maternal grandparents took her to New Zealand, defying a court order that Hilary have unsupervised visitation with her father, Eric Foretich.
Her mother, plastic surgeon Elizabeth Morgan, spent 25 months in detention from 1987 to 1989 for contempt of court in Washington, D.C., for refusing to reveal Hilary's whereabouts.
Morgan was Foretich's third wife.
Foretich's second wife had also accused him of sexual abuse of their daughter, Heather (born 1980).
Foretich denied those charges, and has repeatedly said the two women have acted in collusion.
Rep. Frank Wolf introduced the bill that became the District of Columbia Civil Contempt Imprisonment Limitation Act in 1989.
Elizabeth Morgan was freed after 759 days by an Act of Congress, the District of Columbia Civil Contempt Imprisonment Limitation Act, in 1989 and joined her daughter and parents in New Zealand.
In 1992, the story of the case was made into a television film in 1992, and released as A Mother's Right: The Elizabeth Morgan Story; Foretich sued ABC, who paid Foretich a settlement related to how Foretich was portrayed in the film.
Foretich searched for and found "Ellen" in Christchurch, New Zealand.
He traveled there and attempted to gain some custody of his daughter but the courts there maintained the status quo and Foretich claimed that he could financially no longer afford to pursue the matter.
Return to the United States
In 1996, Congress passed the other act, the Elizabeth Morgan Act, which permitted Hilary, who by then called herself Ellen Morgan, to decide whether or not to see her father.
Wolf again involved himself in the case when he supported the bill that became the bill that became the Elizabeth Morgan Act.
The 14-year-old "Ellen" returned with her mother to the United States, but declined to see her father.
Foretich sued in 1997, and the law was overturned as a bill of attainder by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in 2003, but had no practical effect on Hilary, who was by then 21 and could choose for herself whether or not to see her father.
Hilary Foretich, who had gone by the assumed name Ellen Morgan while in New Zealand, started calling herself Elena Mitrano.

The Colobinae are a subfamily of Old World monkeys.
The family includes 61 species in 11 genera, including the Colobus monkeys, the large-nosed proboscis monkey, and the grey langurs.
Some classifications split the colobine monkeys into two tribes, while others split them into three groups.
Both classifications put the three African genera Colobus, Piliocolobus, and Procolobus in one group; these genera are distinct because they have stub thumbs (Greek κολοβός kolobós = "docked").
The various Asian genera are placed into one or two groups.
Analysis of mtDNA shows the Asian species form two distinct groups, one of langurs and the other of the "odd-nosed" species.
The grey langurs are not closely related to either.
The vervet monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus), or simply vervet, is an Old World monkey of the family Cercopithecidae.
The term "vervet" is also used to refer to all the members of the genus Chlorocebus.
They are found mostly throughout Southern Africa, as well as some of the eastern countries.
Vervets were introduced to the Americas, where there were originally no Old World monkeys.

Vervets are mostly herbivorous monkeys.
They have black faces and grey body hair color, ranging in length from about  for males to about  for females.
Vervet monkeys serve as a primate model for understanding genetic and social behaviors of humans.
They have some human-like characteristics, such as hypertension, anxiety, and social and dependent alcohol use.
Vervets live in social groups ranging from 10 to 70 individuals.
Males change groups when they become sexually mature.
The most significant studies done on vervet monkeys are on their their communication and alarm calls.
Communication helps kin and group recognition, and alerting to predators.
A wagon train is a convoy or group of wagons who travel together for safety.
A baggage train is a military wagon train used to carry the equipment and supplies needed by an army.
They needed to carry enough supplies, including feed for the draft animals, for the entire journey.
Wagon trains are most closely associated with American pioneers traveling west.
As the population of the Thirteen Colonies grew, people migrated westward looking for inexpensive lands and new opportunities.
The wagon had to carry all the supplies for the trip and all a family's personal belongings.
While military use of wagon trains is ancient, the Romans built a network of roads for their armies and baggage trains to move throughout the empire.

The Fold is a music rock band in Chicago, Illinois.
Its genre is alternative rock.
It is known for making "The Weekend Whip", which is the main theme song for Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu.
The band's vocal leader is Daniel Castady.
It has 4 other members.
They also released the album called 'Secrets Keep You Sick' in 2007.
The term Gambler's fallacy refers to a misconception about statistics.
It is also known Monte Carlo fallacy or fallacy of the maturity of chances.
In statistics, a random event has a certain probability of occurring.
The fallacy is that if the event has occurred more frequently in the past, it will occur less frequently in the future; or that if it has been less frequent in the past, it will be more frequent in the future.
As early as 1796, the idea of the gambler's fallacy was used to "predict" the sex of children.
In his work A Philosophical Essay on Probabilities, published in 1796, Pierre-Simon Laplace wrote of the ways in which men calculated their probability of having sons:"I have seen men [who wanted to have] a son, who could learn only with anxiety of the births of boys in the month when they expected to become fathers.
Imagining that the ratio of these births to those of girls ought to be the same at the end of each month, they judged that the boys already born would render more probable the births next of girls."
In short, the expectant fathers feared that if more sons were born in the surrounding community, then they themselves would be more likely to have a daughter.
Some expectant parents believe that, after having multiple children of the same sex, they are "due" to have a child of the opposite sex.
While the Trivers–Willard hypothesis predicts that birth sex is dependent on living conditions (i.e. more male children are born in "good" living conditions, while more female children are born in poorer living conditions), the probability of having a child of either sex is still generally regarded as near 50%.
Repentless is the twelfth studio album by the American thrash metal band Slayer.
It was released on September 11, 2015, and is the band's first album to be released on Nuclear Blast.
It is also the first Slayer album to feature guitarist Gary Holt of Exodus and the first to feature drummer Paul Bostaph since 2001's God Hates Us All.
The album made it to #4 on the Billboard 200, which was the highest charting album from the band in the United States.
It also topped the chart in Germany and was featured in the top ten of almost twenty charts around the world.
Slayer where asked in 2011 if they were going to make another album, which then-Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo replied that although nothing had been written yet, there were "definitely plans".
In early 2011, guitarist Jeff Hanneman became ill with necrotizing fasciitis.
Some said that he got the illness from a spider bite he claimed to have received while in a friend's hot tub.
When asked about a new record, bassist Tom Araya stated that any work would have to wait until Hanneman had recovered.
On February 20, 2013, it was announced that Lombardo would not take part in Slayer's Australia tour because of contractual disputes, and he would be replaced by former drummer Jon Dette.
Lombardo's permanent replacement was later announced to be Paul Bostaph, who was previously the band's drummer from 1992–2001, appearing on several albums.
On May 2, 2013, Jeff Hanneman died of liver failure in a Los Angeles hospital.
A week later, it was announced that he died from an alcohol-related cirrhosis.
Hanneman and his family had did not know how bad his condition was until shortly before his death.
Kerry King later said that he wants the band to continue, but Araya was unsure.
He said that, "After 30 years, it would literally be like starting over," and told about his doubts that Slayer's fanbase would approve of such a change.
In March 2015, Araya revealed that the band had recorded one song before Hanneman died, and that the song will appear on the album.

David Woodard (; born April 6, 1964 in Santa Barbara, California) is an American postmodern writer and conductor, and a descendant of prominent colonial families.
He invented the concept and portmanteau word prequiem, which designates a musical composition to be rendered as its beneficiary lay dying.
Woodard invented a fictional psychoactive machine called the Feraliminal Lycanthropizer.
At the end of the 20th century he fabricated replicas of an actual psychoactive device called the Dreamachine.
Woodard is also known for his work with Nueva Germania, a settlement in Paraguay.
His German book of correspondence Five Years, coauthored by Swiss novelist Christian Kracht, describes some of the humanitarian work performed there.

Field artillery in the American Civil War were cannon that could be moved around the battlefield or could travel with an army unit.
Field artillery could only fight unlimbered (disconnected from the cart and horses that pulled it).
The limber (or caisson) along with the team of six horses would be moved to a safe area nearby.
Gun crews were organized into an artillery battery, six guns (later in the war, four) were deployed along a line about  wide with the guns spaced about  apart.
At times the horses remained hitched to the limber or caisson so the battery could move quickly.
An artillery crew was made up of eight highly trained men.
An artillery battery had a total of between 70 and 100 soldiers.
There were several types of field artillery used during the Civil War.
These included the 6 pounder gun, 12 and the 24 pound Howitzer, the famous Model 1857 12-Pounder Napoleon Field Gun, the 3 inch Ordnance rifle and the 10 and 20 pound Parrott rifle.
Most cannons were muzzleloading weapons.
Cannon barrels were of two types.
One was the older smoothbore cannons as used during the Mexican–American War.
They usually had barrels made of bronze and fired round iron cannonballs.
The newer type was the rifled cannon that were made of cast iron and wrought iron.
They fired Bullet-shaped shells.
Both guns and ammunition had a tendency to be unreliable and they were dangerous to shoot.
Smoothbore cannon
Before the outbreak of the American Civil War, the United States government did not encourage any new developments in ordnance.
Most ordnance experts in the U.S. Ordnance Department were older military officers who believed what worked during the Mexican–American War would work now and did not need improving.
Inventors had to go through years of field experiments and political red tape just to get their ideas introduced.
Most used their own money and could lose all their money trying to introduce a new idea.
Early cannons were identified by the term "pounder" (abbreviated "pdr").
This referred to the weight of the cannonball the gun fired.
For example, a 12 pounder fired a round  solid piece of steel.
In the 17th century, when howitzers were developed, the term pounder began to be used less and less although it was used through the Civil War.
Smooth bores included both guns and howitzers.
Both had shorter barrels and used a higher trajectory.
Both were less accurate than rifled cannons.
The Model 1857 12-pounder Napoleon with its green barrel made up 40% of the cannons on both sides.
It was the most commonly used cannon.
They were heavy at  making them hard for the six-horse team to pull.
The gun crew of the Napoleon was made up of six men.
It could fire a ball, shell or canister shot out to a range of  at a speed of 1,440 feet per second (or 439 meters per second).
It used a charge of  of black powder.
The Union made 1,156 units while the Confederacy made 501.
Because they did not have the manufacturing capacity of the North, Confederates attempted to capture as many Union-made Napoleon 12-pounders as they could.
The Model 1857 was made to replace the Model 1841 6-pounder but both were used during the Civil War out of necessity.
For ranges of  or less the most effective field piece was the Model 1842 12-pounder Howitzer.
It weighed only  and could easily be moved into position by hand.
Its large shells gave it very good firepower but its short range (just over ) was less than that of the 6-pounder gun.
They were easy targets for enemy artillery that usually had greater range.
They were popular for close infantry support.
At the Battle of Gettysburg, nine of these were supposed to accompany Pickett's Charge.
Because of some confusion among the Confederate ranks regarding the orders and very accurate Union artillery fire, all nine were taken out of the battle before Pickett's men crossed the field.
The smoothbore guns remained the most favored technology during the war.
Rifled cannon
While used mostly by the Union army, rifled guns were still a new idea and were not very popular among artillery officers or field commanders.
Rifled guns were designated by the diameter of the bore of the barrel in inches.
In 1860, the Ordnance Board recommended that half of the existing bronze smoothbore cannons be rifled.
But this weakened the cannons to the point they could not stand the strain of firing.
So the experiment quickly ended.
Ordinarily the barrels of smoothbore cannons only lasted about 500 rounds before having to be replaced.
Rifled barrels proved to last much longer in field use.
The British-made Armstrong and Whitworth guns were good weapons but there were not enough of them to have any major effect on the war.
A problem with the rifled guns was they fired too far for the gunners to accurately see to range their targets.
When artillery observers and balloons were used for artillery spotting, this increased the accuracy of the rifled guns.
Training artillery crews in the use of rifled guns took longer and was more difficult.
General George McClellan was among the Union officers who felt that the American terrain was not well suited for the very long range of these weapons.
Jefferson Davis, the Confederate President was of the same opinion.
All these factors contributed to the slow acceptance of rifled cannon.
The cannon called the 3-inch Ordnance Rifle (also called the 3-inch Wrought Iron Rifle) was an early favorite of the Ordnance Board due to its accuracy.
These and other rifled guns were distinguished by their black barrels.
About 1,000 were bought during the war.
They were made by the Phoenix Iron Works of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania.
They were made of wrought iron strips bent on a mandrel then welded together.
They were then machined into their final shape.
The early prototypes were fired 500 times with no signs of wear.
It was accurate and reliable in battle.
The Confederacy also produced a 3-inch Ordnance Rifle.
But the use of low-grade iron ore and poorer rifling machinery made these guns less reliable.
Another popular rifled type were the Parrott rifles.
The original 10-pound model had a bore of .
