The Spade and the Musket
The army correspondent of the Cin
cinnati Commerical, in one of his late let
ters from Atlanta, says that among the
many modifications and new features of
warfare that have been introduced during
the present struggle, the one most noti
ceable and most revolutionizing in its
tendency is the practise, becoming so
universal on both sides, of entrenching
and fortifying. He adds:
"To one who has made military en
gineering a study it is perfectly astonish
ing to notice how all the line
ffi
ocers, and even the prlvates, have be
come In laying out and constructing de
fensive works. Formerly, no works
were attempted until r,egular engineer
officers could survey and state out the
grounds; and then pioneer parties and
regular fatigue parties could do the
work. This required days, and some
time weeks, to construct anything like
efficient defences. Now every officer
and men is an engineer, and every reg
iment and compay has its pioneer: arty.
If a command halts in line for thirty
minutes, good defense works are con
structed. If a company is sent out on
picket, the inevitable pick and spade go
with them ail, certainly as the musket,
and within a few minutes from the time
the post is assigned the picket is well
intrenched. If one army moves to attack
the other the army that is on the defen
sive will construct good protecting works
while the attacking entry, is deploying
and getting ready to assault. The result
is the attacking party on either side al
ways encounters efficient breastworks
that more than double the fighting
strength of the party being attacked.
Open field fighting has almost passed in
to history. It only occurs now when the
party attacked is either surprised or flank
ed.
"Experiuce has abundantly shown that
no General can afford very often to
storm well manned brestworks, for al
though he may carry his point, yet he
does it at an enormous sacrifice of life,
and a sacrifice generally greatly dis
proportioned to the injury he inflicts.
The general who is most expert in
flank movements is the one who will
get control of the most territory.
"These facts present an aspect of our
struggle not altogether agreeable to con
template. While flanking an army will
compel it to change position, yet it gen
erally leaves it intact. An army may
be flanked a thousand times and be an
army still. Had Johnston met us in
open field, and fought us near Dalton or
Bosiica, we could probably have de
stroyed his army ere this. But he reach
es Atlanta with his army whole. He
kept it carefully behind substantial
works, which compelled Sherman- to
drive him back by% succession of the
most skillful flank movements ever made.
Hood took command of the rebel army
at Atlanta, and not till after his sore ex
perience t. f July 29, 52, and 23, when he
lost from fifteen to twenty thousand
men, would he acknowledge the new
feature of battle tactics—the potency of
spade and pick. Every regiment now
carries its entrenching tools, and, they
are cared for with the same tenacity as
the arms, and all become expert in their
use. The unpleasant aspect of this new
feature of warfare is the great adVimtage
it gives to the party which is acting on
the defensive, and will enable the rebels
to hold out much longer than they other
wise could. ' By these tactics Lee's and
Hood's armies are still intac t and much
hard fighting andlieavy warfare will still
be necessary to effecttheir- destrtMtion."

"The ship for Captain Semmes, building
on the continent, and which will prob
ably be ready toward the close of August,
is reported at over four thousand tons,
and will be protected with solid steel
plates two and a half inches thick. She
is to be Called the New Alabama, and
will be armed with Armstrong guns. She
is built for a ram, will be furnished with
engines of great power, and will possess
the means of throwing scalding water OR

thousand :one hundred men. Recruits

divided pro rata by all on board. Most
of the officers and crew of the sunken
ship will join the New Alabama. It is
intended that she shall commence oper
ation near Roston. Federal ships-of-war
are watching her progress, and will dis

NEW /313DIPORD, Masa., Nov. 2-1, 18611.
Deck Stu :—I have been afflicted many years
with severe prostrating cramps to my limbs, cold
feet and hands, and a general disordered system.
Physicians and medicines failed to relieve me.
While visiting some friends New York who were
using Plantation Bitters they prevailed . upon me
to try them. I commenced with a small wine•
glassful after dinner. Peeling better by degrees,
in a few days I was astonished to find the cold
ness and cramps had entirely left me, and I could
sleep the night through, which I had not done
for years. I feel like another being. My appe
tite ann strength have also greatly improved by
the use of the Plantation Bitters.
