Very Important Experiment.
On Capt. Enxcsaox’s now battery Paoaalo, ,
which, like tho Monitor, U •urmonntod with ]
a tnrrnt, tho important experiment of dii- ,
charging the gun» without protrnding the
mosxlea throogh the port, wa, tested with ,
entire snceeis on Seturday leaL The gon
was a 16-inch, carrying.a hollow shot of 330
pounds—a s6Ud shot of tho same siie wolghs
420 pounds.‘ Tho gun weighs twenty tons,
and yotso admirable is the tnaehinery that
four men are able to work it. Tho experi
ment was made on the Hudson river, a few
miles slioTe Now \ ork.
The Erst shot struok abont 300 yards from
the vessel, in the water, glanced off, and taw
Into the bosom of the PaLsados. Nothing
broke—the tnrret was thore, as stroeg and
sotid AS a rook. Tho concussion was not felt
any more than the Captain of a 32-pounder
feels it on hoard a frigate.
The firet fire resulted in no smoke to speak
of, no inconvenient eononrslon, end the com
plete suocess or a grand idea. The first charge
consisted of 20 pounds of powder, and a hol
low shot (330,poands,) fired ont of tho 15-lneh
.an. It recoiled 17 inches.
Tho second shot was fired with 35 ponnds
of powder, and the hall buried itself In tho
beach. The smoko and recoil wore pronounc
ed “ Insignificant." Tho third shot was with
a like satisfactory result.
The two greet points established by this
experiment were: That a gnn ean be fired
- inside of a tnrret; end that a gnn of twenty
■ tons weight oan be managed by four men :
whereas an Armstrong gnn in England, of 14
tons, was handled with difficulty by 25 men.
The great advantage of the first is that the
port holo mey bo so small as to jnst allow tho
free passage iff the ball l whereas to protrndo
the gnn would require a large opening
through which tho enemy might send his
balls or shells with destmotivo effeot. The
advantages of the seoood are too obvious to
require remark, i

upon the success of hisgreatexperiment. The

number soon reached about ono hundred and

fow miles from port, it was found our twenty
five men had increased to fifty-four. Deter

being a soldior, it wae found that thirty men
had qaietly found their way on board just at
break of day, and had concealed themselves
in tho hold of the ship. When askod why
they did so, their reply was :

Muskets were soon in their hands, and no

the bow and stem, and also provided with
two 12-pounder Parrot guns. These guns
had to be worked by blaek men, under the
direction of the Captain of the steamer. Our

Whet hud beeu dons the dsy previous, end 1

is described as follows by Liout. Col. Beard
in his report to Gen. Saxton.
‘‘On Monday, nor. 3, with tho steamer
Darlington, having on board Capt. Trow
bridge's company, colored troops (G 2), I pro
ceeded up Bell river, Florida, drovo in the
rebel piekete below Cooper’s, destroyed their
place of rendesvous, thence proceeded and
destroyed the salt works, and ail the salt,
corn, and wagons, which we ooold not carry
away, beside killing tho horses. Thence wo
proceeded to Jolly rlvor and destroyed two
salt works, with a large amount of salt and
corn. Theuoo proceeded to Sc. Mary’s and
brought oil two families of contrabands after
driving in the enemy’s pickets. . , j
‘•On Tuesday, Nov. 4, proceeded to King s
Bay, Georgia, destroyed a largo salt work in
a creek about a mile from tho landing, to
gether with all tho property on tho place.
Here we were attacked by about 80 of tho en
emy, ol whorm we killed two."
The women and ohlldren (about fifty) taken j
from St. Simond on tho day previous were
now landed fer eafoty in St. Catherines, as a
mote hasardous work was to bo undertaken.
Much of the night was spent in getting wood
for tho steamor, killing beeves and cooking
meats, rioo and cam, for our womon and chil
dren on shore and for onr troops. Tho men
nbeded no “driver’s lash” to.incite them to
libor. Sleep and rest were almost unwelcome,
fir they wore preparing to go up Sapolo river,
along whoso banks, on tho beautitui planta
tions, were their fathers, mothers, brothers,
sisters, wives and children. Weeks and
Jontha before some of the men had loft those
loved ones, with a promise to return "if de
good Lord jls open do way."
At fi o'clock on Friday morning, Nov. i,
vio wore under way. Capt. Budd, of the gun
boat Potomska, had kindly promised the
evening before to aeeompsny ns past tho most
dangorons plaees. On reaching hie station in
Sapolo Sound, wo found him in readiness.
Onr little fieet, led by the Potomska, and fol
lowed by the Darlington, sailed proudly up
tho winding Sapolo, now through marshes,
and then past large and beautiful plantations.

eiylng in tho agony of doepest anxiety, “Oh,
mae’r, my wife and chilleu lib doro,” and an-
other ringing out, "doro, dore my broddor,
or "my sister." The oamest longings of
thoir poor, anguish-riven hearts for landings,
and then tho sad, inexpressible (except by
1 sighs) regrets as tho steamer passed, must be
imagined—thoy cannot bo dosoribed.
Ths first landing was mado at a piokat sta
tion on Chas. Hopkin’e plantation. The one
nry was driven hack; a fow gone and a sword
only captured. Tho Potomska camo to an
ohorago, for tho laok of snfflclont wator, a fow
miles above, at Reuben King’e plantation.
H«r« we wilneised a rich aeeoe. Some fifty
negroes appeared on the basks, about thirty
xode distant from their master's house, and
some distance from the Darlington. They
gaxed upon ui with intense feelings, ulti
mately turning their eyes towards their mas
ter, who was watching them from liis plaxsa,
and toward bur steamer, which, as yet, had
given thorn no assurance of landing. The
moment she headed to the shore, their doubts
were dispersed, and thoy gavo us such a bow

Borne few women wore so filled with joy that
thoy ran, leaped, clapped their hands, and

Tho Darling rested directly in front of tho
old planter's door. About 80 men were
formed in lino of batUe in tho front yard,
and oome 30 were omployed as scouts. The
men were not all landed before tho dark ob

fifteen minutes to gather thoir liberal supply
of,“old duds.” As they were coming with

and on their shoulders, loaded also with pig
gins, pots, trays, ohickons, ducks, and squoal

Negiey’s Occupation of Nashville*
The following from a letter to the Cincin
nati Gatetti will be read with interest:
The strangeness of the occupation of the
oity by Qen. Negley should make a record of it
interesting oven at this late date. The achieve
ment certainly has no counterpart in this war
of ours. It is strange, from the fact that
though the chief objective point of the robels,
they never made a determined assault, upon
it, and strange from the satisfactory r *esult
not entirely expected by the commanding
General. It cannot be said to have been
regularly besieged, though eut off from all
communication with the outer world. The
robels surrounding it and massing in Its vicin
ity all the troops they could spare for the
purpose, have never ventured to lay olose
siege to It. Cut off from ail supplies, the
garrison has been forced to subsist off the
country, and its sallies, with but few exocp
tioos, have been for the purpose of securing
subsistence. •
Gen. Negley Is a Pennsylvania Brigadier
who was left last spring at Columbia to guard
the rear of both hlitchel and Buell, moving
diversely to Shiloh and Huntsville. When
Bragg flanked this city and it was determined
to fail back to Kentucky, Negley was called ,
in by Buell, complimented for his efficiency
in keeping open the rear, and assigned to the !
command or a division. Gen. Buell was fully |
aware that Negley held and followed almost ,
the opposite of his views in regard to the
troatment of slaves and other proporty of I
rebels. Gen. Negley had, muoh to the dis- j
satisfaction of Gen. Buell, instituted the now 1
prevailing systemof using slaves as teamsters.
This innovation, I remember, was strongly |
condemned by many prominent officers In the |
army, but it is now seen that Gen. N. but led, |
instead of following public opinion. It is to
be inferred from the faot of Gen. Buell s dis- !
like to the political views of Gen. Negley that j
his oreation of & division for him and his as- i
sigoment to the command of this very import- !
ant position, was a compliment due to Neg- I
ley for the admirable conduct at Columbia, I
which Gen. Buell had taken occasion to speak ;
of in high terms.
Gen. Negley eame into charge of the city
about the sth of September. He had five
days’ rations for the two divisions, which re
mained in the city as its garrison, and both
of which he commanded, as the senior of Gen.
Palmer commanding the other, the first di
vision of the army of the Mississippi. The
scanty supply of rations indicated early the
necessity of looking about him for a source of
gopply ; and Negley saw that he had to de
pend upon tho country for it. The period for ,
which the supply was to be continued was in-
definite enough, and the present appearance |
of the country in this vicinity indicates that |
had it been extended a few weeks longer, that |
supply would not have sufficed for his com
mand. At the beginning tho men were
placed on half rations, and the prospect look
ed dreary enough. It would pussle the Com
missary at this day to tell how the men have
been supplied. He states that ho only knows
that it has been done, and certainly Uncle
Sam cannot grumblo at the bill which is to be
presented, as “old seeeah” has had to foot It.
This country, for fifteen miles around the
city, has been stripped. Immense forage
trains, miles in extent, have been dispatched
semi-occasiohally, with entire brigades for
guards. Foraging has been pursued under
it often happening that the guards
had to fight with the rebels for the possession
of the forage, and then with tho element of
fire as to who should consume it.
As the natural result of being shut off from
supplies, the citUens soon began to want for
the necessaries of life. The rebels allowed
nothing whatever to be brought In by coun
trymen, probably hoping thus to force Neg
ley, through humanity, to allow the oitisens
to go beyond the lines in search of what they
needed. But Negley told them that he would
permit anything to be brought Into thorn, but
they should not go for it. The "short ration
system” among the oitisens soon began to
' reveal its effects in curious and comical fto
| tures. Hotel proprietors were foroed to in
form their boarders that the ploket* drank
their milk, and ate their batter and chpeid ; ,
that fresh beef was a luxury intended only for 1
the military gentlemen, and that, in conse- ;
quence, he should have te close his doors.
When a few marketmen appeared in the mar
ket-house, it was to. find the place besieged
by half-famished oitisens, who paid any price
for provisions. The social board, in many
families, was dressed but twice a day, and
then scantily. Starvation and stagnation
stared them in the face.
The principal duty assigned to Gen. Negley
waa the completion, at an early the
works of defence for the city. Those being
constructed by Captain Morgan were on an
extensive scale, ana highly important. Neg
loy is a man of energy. He immediately
seised two thousand negroes, constituted
them into regiments—actual colored regi
ments—gave them quarters to themselves,
and put them to work vigorously at the forti
fications. These regiments of laborers are
regularly constituted, as regards discipline,
ami commanded and officered by the more in
telligent men to bo found amongst them.
Thotr efficiency has been thoroughly tested,
and it has been satisfactorily ascertained that
twice the amount of euoh labor can be got out
of them as can be foroed from the same num
ber of detailed soldlen. In addition to the
oxtensiv. forts, tho ’f'SrJlji'
ended, and under the »nperri«lan of Nogte*
the cit, was made impregnable to earairr
dashes. Fourteen ofthe heavy-gunsleftbar*

Th«ait mm were made serviceable through
?h. ingenuity of Ceptain E. Townsend, 15th
Culled States Infantry, ordnanee officer In
Genoral Nogloy’s staff. Bosides the .other
defenses, General Negley built » gnnboat of

General BuoU's A. A. A. G., who commended

You have already had accounts of the af
fairs of Lagrange and QoodlottsTilte. These
sallies, as they may ho called, wore the tew
which reached yo.,ef many similar wpodU
Sons. Gen. Negley oppearsto havothought
that the way to light guerrUtes was to outdo
thorn in energy and to ‘trike them at ayery
opportunity. Ho has kept his
tinnallyontho alert, and his attacked and
routed a dossn different bands. Tha attaok

It is now evident that tho attaok of Breokin
rldga was a foint to draw attention to tha
southern part of tho town, white Morgan at-,
tempted to bum the railroad bridge acres, the
Cumberland. His force sueeeedßd inieaehing
tha bridge, but was driven back hy » «onpte
of companies near by. He hadthe snbUma
-impudence to send in a flag of trace during
the fight, to ask for an exchange of prisonaq.
