A Effect of Shot on the Monitor The Scientific American publishes the following letter from Paymaster Nyelpr, 11,:q•ribing the effeet of the Merrinutc•s shot upon the Monitor: UNITED STATES STEAMER iNIONEDAp., '`Messes. Dumas: As it m ay be so n . , time belbre the official report of Chief Engineer timers is made public. I have thought that the effects of i t , vessel in the late engs.Lentent with the Nterrinme might he interesting to you. - The details of the light, which la •tctl titre,. hems and It hall, II:tV becn made public. so that I will confine et vscif to the eff;:ct of the shit upo n "The Merrimac's projectiles were most ly permission shells, fired from 10 or 11- inch rifled pieces. Twenty-three shots struck us, including two from the Minim , sota, which, during the engagement, fired over our heads. The deepest ind en tatio n on oar turret was two and on e d ia lfi n a ies , produced by a 150-pound percussion shell tired at a distance of twenty feet perpen dieuMr with the Our (leek received four shot making slight depre ssion.c One shot struck us On the angle formed by the -de* mrd side, tearing up the iroa plating aboat one-third the width of a sheet, start ing the beltti and splintering the wood a little. Three or four others struck us just above the wider line, with no other tenet than making indentations of two inches. The pilot-house received ono shot on one of the upper corners, nearly battering it down. A little later in the action, howev er, a heavy shell was thrown from a dist ance of about fifteen feet, against the front, at an angle of about thirty. degrees, strik ing the two upper bars just at the lookout crack, the main force being on the lower of the two, tbreing it in about an inch, and opening a crack of one-fourth of an inch on the opposite side. She twice attempt ed-to open a hole in our side with her ram, as she did the Cumberland, once . striking us squarely on our beam, nearly abreast of the turret, jarring us somewhat, and leav ing a small dent on our iron side. Our hull remains perfectly tight, and the tur ret, notwithstanding the severe hammer ing, revolves as accurately and easily as when we left Sew York. "We experienced a severe gale un our wan down, coming through it safely. That, and our trial with the Merrimac proves the Monitor. we think, a success. W. F. KEELER, A. A. Paymaster. 'fits following statement is made by ono of the officers on the Monitor, of the noise during her engagement with the Merri- Mue : 'The noise ou board the Monitor was terrific, the striking of the shot against her sides and the turret; the awful noise of her own guns, the whizzing of shot over the deck4and the explosion of these enormous rifle shells when they struck, made a terri ble din. • When the guns recoiled, the noise of the maidffe pendulums swinging by end closing the ports reverberated throughoutthe-ves -eel. The men on boardworked like heroee i &met with perspiration and begrimed *at Powder." • , , ~x...,,.,„,..,... • : . 4. ._ ...... .... / ....._..., . ~ ir,„ . /1 1 . .. . 1 _ j , , , , .., \ , Pl.VrsHuncii, moNnAv MORNING, MAUCH 24, 1562.
