London: SAMPSON LOw7MAsTON & Company, Limited, St. Dunstan's House, Fetter Lane, Fleet Street, E.C. PREFACE. THE Exhibition is divided into four Main Sections, viz. : ARTS, NAVIGATION, MODELS, AND ORDNANCE, and these with their several Sub-Divisions are located in a series of Galleries, with each of which has been associated the name of some distinguished character in Naval History, viz. : The Franklin Gallery, containing the interesting and pathetic relics of the several Arctic Expeditions. ,, Nelson ) > probably the most interesting and valuable Blake > collection of Art treasures and Relics ever Benbow ) brought together. ,, Howe ,, ,, the "Miscellaneous Sub-Division" of the Exhibition. ,, Cook ,, the Exhibits relating to : (a) The several branches of the Science of Navigation. (3) Boat Lowering and Life Saving. Seppings ,, Models of Marine Engines, and a complete history of Naval Architecture, ocularly demon's strated, from the time of the " Great Harry " to the present day. {devoted to Naval Ordnance, Torpedoes, Diving Apparatus, Electrical Appliances for Naval purposes, materials used in Ship and Engine Construction, Armour Plates, &c. In addition to the above there ie a special gallery, which has been designated "The Armstrong" gallery, and which is entirely occupied by the wonderful exhibits of the great Elswick Firm (Sir Wm. Armstrong & Co.), and a series of smaller structures (Kiosks) are ranged about the grounds, containing the separate exhibits of the larger Shipbuilding and other Firms. Throughout the Exhibition, endeavor has been made to so arrange the exhibits in chronological order as to at once convey to the visitor an idea of the gradual progress and development in all branches of Naval and Maritime matters ; and while the carrying out of such an arrangement does not readily lend itself to a strict classification for catalogue purposes, inasmuch as " Loan " and "Trade" exhibits, c., cannot be kept distinct (in Sections) the one from xvi Preface. the other, it is believed that it will prove none the less interesting on that account. In the compilation of this Catalogue the convenience of the visitor has always been kept in view, and while it purports to be a faithful record of the whole of the objects in the Exhibition, it has been arranged so as to serve the double purpose of Guide and Catalogue, in order that with this book as his vade niecitm the visitor may be " personally conducted " so to speak from entrance to exit. Should the visitor desire to proceed at once to any particular Gallery or Section he will be directed thereto on consulting the Key on page xli. Apart from the mere usefulness of the book as a Catalogue of the Exhibits, it is hoped that it may prove of interest in other directions. A series of articles has been written, which will be found preceding the principal sections (corresponding to the sections of the Exhibition) into which the book is divided, treating more fully of the particular subjects contained in those sections. To the Catalogue of the Arts Galleries has also been added a synopsis of the arrangement of Portraits, Battle Pictures, and Figure Subjects relating to prominent periods of British Naval History, as also a chronological list of the services of the Royal Navy, from the year 1512 to the present date, and brief biographical notices of the Officers whose portraits are exhibited, and notes on the battles depicted. In the hurry and difficulties which are inseparable from the production of the first edition of this Catalogue, it is probable that errors may have crept in and been overlooked ; it is believed however that these are not numerous or important, and in the meantime any intimation of corrections necessary to be made in future editions would be gladly received by THE EDITOR.

T"he confederation of the " Cinque Ports " was at the height of its power during the reigns of John j Henry III., and Edward I. j but as the greed of colonisation awoke, the sphere of Naval opera- tions enlarged ; commerce opened out in all directions; and the" Ports gradually lost their exclusive privileges: They still bbrfe their share, and an important one, in the great victory of -Sluysi but the conclusion of the reign of Edward III. saw their decay already far advanced. Those who would investigate further the causes of this decay will find them discussed at length in Professoi' M. Burrows's recent " History of the Cinque Ports." Gradually, under the fostering care of Henry V., Edward IV., and the 7th and 8th Henrys, a permanent and extensive King's Navy was formed, and the functions of the Cinque Ports subsided into the duty of transporting Royal personages across the Channel. Victories such as that of Sluys, although won at sea, were not Naval victories in the modern sense of the term they were won after hand to hand fights between soldiers embarked for the occasion, led by officers who fought on sea or land indifferently, as occasion required. xxxviii Introduction, The foundations of the present sySlem of a body of officers and men trained exclusively for the service of the Royal Navy, were laid by Henry VIII., who created the Navy Office and the Trinity House, and the dockyards at Portsmouth, Deptford and Woolwich, but the personnel of the Royal Navy was not regulated on its present lines until the time of the Stuarts, the first regulations for the examination for the rank of Lieutenant having been established in 1677. The exigencies of space render it impossible to do more than glance at the vicissitudes which the Navy has undergone since the reign of Henry VIII., the weakness to which it was reduced under the rule of Edward VI. and Queen Mary, the efforts made by Queen Elizabeth to restore it to an adequate strength, efforts which were in no small degree assisted by the confidence inspired by the brilliant exploits of Drake in his laudable endeavours to " singe the King of Spain's beard," and which bore their fruit in the marvellous defeat of the Armada ; the degradation and decay into which it fell during the reign of Charles II. when Pepys re- ported that the naval administration was a prodigy " of wastefulness, corruption, ignorance, and indolence, that no estimate could be trusted, that no contract was performed, that no check was en- forced." From such a picture we gladly turn to the record of the heroic courage of Sir Richard Grenville, the victories of Blake, Benbow, Howe, Rodney, St. Vincent, Boscawen, Duncan, Hawke and Nelson ; the adventurous voyages of Cabot, Frobisher, Raleigh,. Drake, Anson, Cook, Byron and Franklin; the brilliant exploits of Cochrane and Sir Sidney Smith and the constructive genius of Pelt and Seppings. Nor is any record necessary beyond the recital of their names, " by their fruits ye shall know them." It is not too much to say that never before has such a collec- tion of mute but glorious witnesses to England's Naval Supremacy been gathered together, and in gazing at them it will be well to bear in mind the words of Sir Walter Raleigh : " England is a and which can never be conquered whilst the kings thereof keep the dominion of the sea."

These words have been inscribed above the Main Entrance to the Exhibition Buildings, and have been adopted as the motto in connection with the Exhibition. The sentence itself has been adapted from the preamble to the Naval Discipline Act (29 & 30 Viet. Cap. CIX.) better known as " The Articles of War/' and it would be difficult to frame anything more appropriate to the Exhibition itself, or more in accordance with the glorious traditions and history of that great Service which has called the Exhibition into existence. THE TROPHY Facing the main entrance has been erected from a design by Mr. Spanton, of H.M.S. "Britannia." The idea is to show on one side ancient, and on the other modern, weapons of war, &c., as used on board ship, while the figure of Britannia connects the past with the present. The statue was modelled by Mr. W. C. May for the Armada Memorial at Plymouth, and the cast has been kindly lent by him, together with the bas-reliefs on the pedestal. The arms, &c. , have been arranged by Mr. Rice of the Ordnance Wharf, Portsmouth, by whom also the pillars in front of the Trophy have been decorated. BRITISH SEA COMMERCE AND NAVAL RESPONSIBILITIES.

Arts Section. 15 In continuation of the FRANKLIN GALLERY, and separated from it by a screen with ornamental iron gates, which are locked at night, is the NELSON GALLERY, running parallel with which on the south side, are the BLAKE AND BENBOW GALLERIES, and in these three galleries is located the ARTS SECTION. THE Insignia and Relics of the CINQUE PORTS represent the earliest naval fighting force of the English nation of which we have any certain knowledge. The fleet of 57 ships which, in return for valuable franchises, the Cinque Ports undertook to provide was liable to military service for 15 days, whenever the King should call it out. Fcr any extension of the time of service the King paid at a fixed rate. Each ship was requ'red to carry a crew of 21 men and a boy ; each had a "rector " cr master, as well as a " constable," or boatswain. Thus their whole force consisted of 1,368 officers and men, to which the King appears to have added on occasion a contingent of troops. The form of these " ships " is ascertained from the Cinque Pert Seals, some of which are exhibited. They seem in the earliest times to have varied from 20 to 60 tons burden, and were little more than large boats, partially decked, and rigged with one stout mast and one large square sail. From the fore-castle, after-castle, and top- castle, the archers and cross-bowmen discharged their missiles. To this fleet the Kings of England for some ages intrusted the guardian- ship of the English Channel ; it conveyed the King when he crossed the sea; and it fought his battles. It was led by the Earl of Salisbury in 1213 to victory at Damme, and won the decisive battle of Dover Straits under Hubert de Burgh in 1217. It was unfairly matched against the whole of the French naval forces by King Henry III., and formed the advanced guard of Earl Simon de Montfort in the Barons' War. King Edward I. employed it in the Conquest of Wales and Scotland; and in 1293 it destroyed the French fleet in a pitched battle at St. Mahe. Even as late as the reign of King Edward III., when the Kings own ships began to be of some importance, the fleet of the Cinque Ports formed a chief part of the force led by the King at Sluys, at the Siege of Calais, and at the battle of Lespagnols-sur-Mer. At the end of his reign, and during that of King Richard II., the French revenged 16 Arts Section. themselves by burning the Cinque Port towns. This disaster, and still more the unceasing silting-up of the harbours, caused the gradual decay of the Confederation. Their last service of importance was performed against the Spanish Armada. The names of the confederated ports chartered by Edward the Confessor are Hastings, Sandwich, Dover, Romney, and Hythe ; King Henry II. added Winchelsea and Rye. Thus they are officially addressed as "The Five Cinque Ports and Two Ancient Towns." Soon afterwards they began to enrol other towns as "Members" of the Confederation, 8 of them being Corporate, and 24 Non-Corporate, towns. Seaford, Pevensey, Fordwich, Deal, Folkestone, Faversham, Lydd, and Tenterden form the first group : Ramsgate, Walmer, Margate, and Brightlingsea alone of the second group, survive as places of any importance. The military character of the Confederation grew out of the organisation of the Kentish Coast-men for the Herring Fishery. For many centuries they held the guardianship of Yarmouth Fair, regulated by the King from time to time, and only relinquished in 1663. Their oldest institutions were connected with this office. Amongst their numerous franchises none was more cherished than their " Honours at Court," recited in the earliest charter now surviving, that of 1278. At Coronations the Barons of the Cinque Ports a title which dates from the Norman reigns and is still in use bore on the points of silvered spears a silken canopy, with a bell at each corner, over the King and Queen. At the feast which followed the Barons sat at the next table to the King on his right hand. It was as a Royal Navy that they had the precedence of every one else in Court Honours. This "custom" was "ancient" when King Richard the First was crowned, and has been regularly observed. The Cinque Ports still enjoy exceptional privileges, and at the last census included within their " liberties " a population of 174,279. But though the Cinque Ports were thus, from a very early period, the nucleus of the Navy of England, every ship and every seafaring man in the country was subject to be " arrested " for the King's service ; and the Lord Admiral's first duty on being appointed was to make himself acquainted with the number and names of available ships and men. In case of a general armament, many towns, besides the Cinque Ports, added their quota to the fleet ; and prominent among these, in the time of Edward III., were London, Bristol, Yarmouth, Southampton, Portsmouth, Poole, Dartmouth, Plymouth, Looe, and Fowey. Poole and Dartmouth obtained a special notoriety as haunts of privateers, scarcely distinguishable from pirates. Dartmouth was the home of Chaucer's typical sailor, who " certeinly was a good felawe," although " Of nyce conscience took he no keep. If that he fbughte and hadde the heigher hand. By water he sente hem hoom to every land ;" Arts Section. 17 a reference to the ordinary way of disposing of prisoners ; and of Poole, it was said : " If Poole was a fish-pool, and the men of Poole fish, There'd be a pool for the devil, and fish for his dish." In addition, however, to the force thus supplied by the maritime towns, there was always a certain varying contingent of King's ships, the establishment of which dated back as far as the days of Ethelred, or Alfred, or even earlier ; but was placed on a more distinct and permanent footing under Henry VIII. by the institution of the Trinity House at Deptford, and of the Board long known as the Navy Board. This was composed of the " Principal Officers of the Navy " the Treasurer, Comptroller, Surveyor, and Clerk of the Acts who, under the LorJ Admiral, were responsible for the administration of the " Navy Royal," which, from the increase in the size ef ships, rendered neces- sary by the use of cannon, became of continually greater importance in the measure of the country's naval strength. Out of the very numerous fleet assembled to oppose the "Invincible" Armada in 1588, the stress of the righting fell almost entirely on the Queen's ships ; comparatively few of the others being able to match themselves against the Spaniards' huge galleons. This brilliant and glorious war gave a new impulse to the " Navy Royal : " the country seemed to have learned that in it lay its true power and most effective defence ; and many new ships of a large size, were added to it. But the financial difficulties of James I. and Charles I., and the troubles of the Civil War prevented its being maintained at an adequate strength ; and when the war with Holland broke out in 1652, the number of State's ships was very far below the nation's requirements. A great many merchant-ships were therefore hired for the public service ; and as it was found that, under the more stringent conditions of a purely naval war, there was some difficulty in regulating the conduct and discipline of their commanders, provision was made that in all cases the officers of such ships must be appointed and commissioned by the State. The Navy List thus began to assume a degree of permanence ; and during the succeeding Dutch wars, the code of discipline and organization took the form which it has since maintained. At the same time, the advantage of the larger and more powerful ships of the State, proved repeatedly in several of the battles with the Dutch, gave an impulse to the development of naval archi- tecture ; and after the Revolution, the number of merchant ships hired into the service was absolutely small, and the size of them inconsiderable ; they were seldom available except as cruisers of scouts. At this time, too, it was finally recognized that ships of small size were out of place in a general action ; the idea of fighting in line had been gradually developed, more especially in the actions between the combined English and French fleets and the Dutch in 1673, and the combined Dutch and Spanish 1 8 Arts Section. fleets and the French in 1676. It had thus corne about that the strength of fleets Was no longer counted in gross, as during the first and second Dutch wars, but by the number of " ships fit to lie in a line," an expression of 1690, which, by 1692, had settled down into " ships of the line of battle." This "line of battle," or "line ahead, dose to the wind," was established as the only fighting formation, and was so recognised by all the Maritime Powers. It was formulated in a code of Fighting Instructions, which forbade any departure from the prescribed order ) and though experience showed that by adhering to it no definite advantage was to be gained, without a great superiority of numbers, and though Sir George Byng at Cape Passaro, in 17 18, and Sir Edward Hawke in Quiberon Bay, in 1 759, showed how much was to be gained by a judicious violation of the rule, it continued in force till Sir George Rodney, by an accidental but distinct breach of it, in 1782, inflicted a decisive defeat on the French fleet off Dominica, and did away with the pedantry of prescribed formations and pre-ordered manoeuvres. Then came the era of Howe, St. Vincent, Duncan^ and Nelson, who, no longer bound by the fetters of routine, gave free scope to their genius, and emblazoned on our history the glorious names of Ushaht, Sh Vincent, Camperdown, the Nile, Copenhagen; and Trafalgar a continuous succession of brilliant victories, to which naval history offers no parallel. It Would, however, be a grave mistake to suppose that during all these years, the work of our Navy is adequately described in the catalogue of its glories. It has, indeed, sufficed, on the comparatively rare days of battle, to withstand or crush the enemy's fleets or ships; and to win for itself undying renown ; but it has also sufficed, on every day of war, to maintain our coasts iriviolate, to sweep the enemy's commerce from the seas, and to protect our own. It has often been said that, notwithstanding our great naval strength, our commercial losses were still very great. It is true ; but in estimating those losses the gains must also be reckoned. Our losses were great because our commerce was great ; because in time of war we had the practical monopoly of the commerce of the world ; because our mercantile shipping grew and developed in war, at the expense of our enemies ; and the losses we sustained, though great in absolute numbers or value, were trivial in comparison with the whole number and the sum total from which they were taken. But this, the all-important, the abiding work of our Navy, the ceaseless and grinding pressure which it has exercised on our enemies, the security of our shores, the increase of our commerce, the driving of hostile flags from the sea, cannot be adequately represented by the art to which our galleries are dedicated. The painter can indeed show the portraits of our heroes, or the representation in fact or fancy of some of their achievements. He can show " the blue flag bearing down on the white," and can give some idea of "the hawk-like swoop" in Quiberon Bay 5 he can shoW the slow advance Arts Section. 19 and terrible onslaught of the Victory or the Royal Sovereign at Trafalgar ; he can show how " Brave Broke, ke waved his sword, Crying ' Shannons, let us board ! ' " or, coming down to our own days, he can show the meaning of the signal " Well done, Condor ! " ; but nothing here can show the security, the peace, the wealth which has sprung, in only a less degree, from the every-day actions of every-day men, whose names were scarcely known beyond the walls of the Admiralty, but who were, none the less, the units which made up the grand Whole of England's Navy, " the wall and fence of the kingdom." So far as circumstances have permitted) the portraits and battle pieces in the two larger galleries; Blake and Nelson, have been arranged in chronological order, and thus present a fairly complete view of the war services of the Navy t from the time of Henry VIII. The same idea has ruled in the arrangement of the water colours and engravings in the Benbow gallery ; where will also be found many humourous representations of the social life of the Navy. The Committee desire to convey their warmest thanks to all who have so cordially and liberally responded to their appeal, and have enabled them to bring together a collection of pictures and relics of naval interest, such as has never been equalled. The numbers consilience in the North-East end of the Blake Gallery, and continue from left to right to the East Entrance, then passing into the Nelson Gallery are continued on the South and North Walls respectively, and terminate on the screens commencing from the East end. The Works are Catalogued tinder the names given to them by the Contributors.

By BARKER. The incident here depicted is thus described in Nelson's own words : " On the quarter-deck of a Spanish first-rate, extravagant as the story may seem, did I receive the swords of vanquished Spaniards ; which, as I received, I gave to William Fearney, one of my bargemen ; who put them, with the greatest sangfroid, under his arm. I was surrounded by Capt. Berry, Lieut. Pearson, of the 6gth Regiment, John Sykes, John Thomson, Francis Cooke, all old Agamemnons ; and several other brave men, seamen and soldiers. Thus fell these ships.'' In a postscript he adds : "In boarding the San Nicolas (from which ship he crossed over to the San Josef}, I believe we lost about seven killed and ten wounded, and about twenty Spaniards lost their lives by a foolish resist- ance none were, I believe, lost in boarding the San Josef. There is a saying in the Fleet too flattering for me to omit telling, viz. , ' Nelson's patent bridge for boarding first-rates,' alluding to my passing over an enemy's 8o-gun ship." The portrait of Nelson is from a cast by Flaxman. The portraits of Capt. Berry, who stands between Nelson and his bargeman, and Lieut. Pearson, who is on the right of the latter, are from original pictures. Lent by Major -General Sir William Grossman, A'.C.Jf.G., Jf.P. OK9, MANUFACTURERS OF Artists' Colours & Materials.

The Fleet under Nelson, consisting of 13 seventy-fours and two smaller vessels, found the French Fleet, composed of 13 line-of-battle ships, four frigates, and two brigs, anchored in Aboukir Bay. The action com- menced at sunset, and was contested with the greatest bravery on both sides. About 10 o'clock the French Admiral's ship, L'Orient, of 120 guns, blew up with a tremendous explosion. Several of the enemy's ships continued the action, but eventually the whole were taken or des- troyed, except two line-of-battle ships and two frigates.

The Parliament having consoled the Earl of Warwick with the command of the Fleet contrary to his Majesty's pleasure, and the Earl having endeavoured to intercept a small vessel which the Queen had despatched from Holland with arms and ammunition for the King, his Majesty began to think it high time to take the Admiralty into his own hands, and for that purpose sent his Royal letters to the Captains of every ship, commanding them no longer to pay obedience to the Earl of Warwick, but to obey such orders as they should receive from Sir John Pennington. When the Captains had received these letters, many of them expressed their duty and submission, and only waited for the orders of Sir J. Pennington, who was not yet arrived. This delay the Earl improved to encourage those whom he thought true and to watch those he mistrusted. By the proper signal (as represented in this print) he summoned the Captains to attend him on board in Council. This they all did excepting Captain Slingsby and Captain Wake, who attempted to put to sea, but the corruption of the seamen was so great that the Captains were seized by their own men and by them carried to the Admiral.

The Victoria is 34 ins. long, and has been made from a set of very exact and detailed drawings specially prepared for the purpose to the same scale as for the old three-decker, and supplied by Sir Wm.

The 56 ft. torpedo boat with which she is furnished, weighs in the model about z\ troy ounces. The huge Inglefield anchor weighing several tons, would not be much too large in the model for a scarf pin, and yet every joint of it will move. The eight Nordenfelt guns, carriages and all, can be stood upon a florin, and weigh under half an ounce, and yet are made up of 118 separate pieces of silver. Each of the accommodation ladders is composed of 41 pieces. There are 136 stanchions to hold the rails round the sides of the ship, each with three holes drilled in it no larger than T f, ( ,th part of an inch, and the whole weighing f of an ounce. These details of some of the parts com- prising these two models will serve to show the minuteness cf the work when such large objects as war ships and their fittings have to be reduced to model sizes. Altogether the two models have been built up of about 9,000 pieces, every one made to measurement. To fit these together about 5,000 separate solderings have had to be made, each time heating the parts to red heat, and something like 7,000 holes have had to be drilled. Both ships to complete required, something like 2oi working drawings, to the scale of y^th of an inch to the foot, and had to be specially made of the different parts of the two ships, so as to ensure accuracy of form and proportion.

Pepys,.who notes the departure of the Duke on this day, tells us on the 3rd of December, that after his having been abroad at sea three or four days with the fleet, the Dutch were all drawn into their harbours, and it "seemed like a victory." He appears to have considered, however, that it was not much of a triumph for the English, the retirement of the enemy being probably occasioned by the weather. 2050 Portrait of " His Royal Highness James, Duke of York and Albany, &c." (after Lely). "Sold by Alex. Browne at y* blew ballconyin little Queen Streett." 2051 1665. Contemporary Manuscript. "Narrative of y* Signall Vic- tory w ch it pleased God to bestow upon his Ma ties Navy under y" Corhand of His Royall Highness James Duke of York, againgt y* fleet of y" States of the United Netherlands, June 3, 1665." In this celebrated action, resulting in a decisive victory for the English, our fleet was commanded by the Admirals, the Duke of York, the Earl of Sandwich, Sir George Ayscue, and Admirals Penn and Lawson ; and the Dutch Fleet by Opdam, Evertzen, Cartemaar, and Cornelius Tromp, son of the Great Tromp. The action was contested with great bravery and determination on both sides, and the slaughter was very great. Three persons of quality were killed by the side of the Duke of York, and soon afterwards Opdam was blown up and Cartemaar killed by a shot from the Duke of York's vessel. Sir John Lawson was wounded in the knee and subsequently died of his injuries. "Lawson whose valour beyond faith did go, " And still fights Opdam in the lake below." (Poems on State Affairs.) The loss of the Dutch was 18 ships, 6,000 to 8,000 men ; that of the English, 7 ships and 2,000 seamen. Galleries] Official Papers, 2Tnarle (Monck), Myngs, Ayscue, and Berkeley.

Pepys says of this fight " Sir \V. Coventry is not thoroughly pleased with the late manage- ment of the fight, nor with anything that the generals do, only is glad to hear that De Ruyter is out of favor and that this fight has cost them 5, coo men, as they themselves do report."

PRINTS ILLUSTRATIVE OF THE ATTACK ON CHATHAM BY THE DUTCH UNDER DE RUYTER, C. DE WlTT, AND VAN GHENT. The disaster resulting from this attack, as is well known, was occasioned by the supiaeness of Charles II. and the general want of public spirit. Albemarle has left a report of his own exertions in attempting to avert the contretemps, and his contempt falls heavily on the head of Mr. Commissioner Pett, who failed to sink a ship in the narrow channel which the Dutch had to pass. The chain across the entrance to the Medway was broken by the weight of two Dutch fire ships coming on to it one after the other. 2083 1667.

These Lamps are of great durability and possess many important improvements over those no\f in use, among which may be mentioned I. The burner and chimney are provided with breakwind guards for protec- tion from extinction of the flame during the firing of guns. n. They are so constructed that perfect ventilation is secured. III. Instead of using coloured glass shades which absorb a great percentage of light, the lenses contain the purest glycerine coloured with imperishable mineral dyes. IV. The oil tanks are made to revolve in the lamp for the purpose of being trimmed without removal. V. Special condensing reflectors are firmly attached to each oil tank. VI. Expansion bands are fitted round all the lenses, which prevents crackage of the glasses from undue expansion. These lamps went through a severe test at the hands of the Board of Trade at Shoeburyness, and were found proof against sea and wind, and moreover showed that by the use of purest glycerine coloured with mineral dyes the penetrating power of the light was fully 50/80 % more than the same hght through coloured glass lenses. They have also undergone the tests of the Corporation cf the Trinity with most satisfactory results. They will burn 18 hours steadily with- out attention, if properly trimmed when first lighted.

The cadge to weigh, the sheets belay, He does it with a wish ; To heave the lead or to cat head The pondrous anchor fish ; For while the grog goes round, All sense of danger's drown'd, We despise it to a man.

END OF THE MISCELLANEOUS SECTION. 360 Navigation Section. [Cook On ascending the stairs at the end of the HOWE GALLERY, the COOK GALLERY is reached, and here the Exhibits of the NAVIGATION SECTION are chiefly quartered. NAVIGATION EXHIBITS. THE name of Cook is associated with this gallery in memory of the greatest of English Navigators, Captain James Cook, F.R.S. The exhibits in this Section are arranged in the following, Sub-Divisions : (a) Arctic, (e) Hydrography, (b} Signals, (/) Compasses, (c) Lights, Buoys and Beacons, (g) Navigating instruments, (d) Marine Meteorology, these Sub-Divisions being named in the order in which they occur to a visitor passing from the main entrance to the left. (a) The Arctic Sub- Division (in the Franklin Gallery) displays the appliances which have been employed in Arctic Navigation, many of them having been actually in use in those regions. Many interesting relics illustrative of the history of Arctic research are shown in this Sub-Division, and especial attention should be given to the touching and unique remains of the Franklin Expedition. Conspicuous here also are many portraits of renowned Arctic Explorers, as well as the most authoritative paintings and drawings illustrative of the polar regions. (b) The Signals Sub- Division is not large, as the apparatus employed in carrying on the Art is generally simple and not subject to great change. On the left is shown a series of lights and fog-signal apparatus, which illustrates the progress which has been made in what may be called Anti- Collision Signalling, for nearly the whole of this group is indicative of the growth of forty years' invention in this direction. From the earliest times until about 1848, the practice was, when two ships were approaching each other at night, and one apprehended danger, that she should show two white lights in lanterns one over the other on her port (or left) side, or a single white light on her starboard (or right) side, according to the direction in which the dangerous ship was seen. When steamers began to increase, they carried a white light at the masthead to distinguish them from sailing vessels ; and about 1848 they began to carry permanently the white light at the masthead, with a red light on the left side and a green light on the right side. Later, special instruments, such as steam whistles and fog horns, came into use for denoting the presence of ships to one another during fogs. The whole of this group exhibits the developments of the original idea, and the beauty and elaboration of the latest arrangements for large ships is very noteworthy. Gallery] Navigation Section. 361 In signalling proper, that is, the communication of intelligence from ship to ship at sea, progress is best illustrated by the group of Signal Books from the time of Charles II. onwards. From the first, signals were made in the day-time by means of colored flags ; at night (a few signals only) by groups of white lights in different forms, and in fogs, not at all. Signalling by colored flags really reached its highest development at the hands of Sir Home Pophan in 1816. The Semaphore, which is now largely used in day-time instead of flags, was in existence for perhaps half a century before being adopted in the Service afloat. Mr. Redl, an Austrian gentleman, was the first to conceive, forty years ago, the idea of a signal system which might be nearly uniform in day- right, by night, and in fog. This is represented by our present flashing system. (c) The Lights, Buoys and Beacons Sub-Division is headed by the great light-house in the grounds, which is nearly 170 ft. high, and in con- junction with which is used Messrs. Chance's beautiful lenticular apparatus, developing the light produced by an electric current of 500 amperes and 60 volts, and sending out a light equal to 5,000,000 candles, the most powerful light in the world. In comparison with this marvellous development is shown the original Crescett light, which in the early days of navigation warned the navigator of his approach to St. Agnes in the Scilly Islands. The great gas and bell buoy, which is also 'exhibited in the grounds, is another development, enabling the navigator to thread his way through intricate channels at night and in fog. Models of all the existing appliances for lighting and buoying channels, marking dangers, &c., are shown, as also a large chart illustrating the system of buoying channels. In this particular, also, the Exhibition is indebted to the kindness and exertions of the Elder Brethren of the Trinity House, assisted by the Commissioners of Northern Lights, for the interesting display, in this Section, of models of lighthouses, &c., from that of the first Eddystone down to the present day.

First proposed to the Trinity House by Mr. Walter Whitfield in 1691, and built at his oxpense in 1694, in consideration of certain dues granted under patent from the Crown. Mr. Henry Winstanley, of Littlebury in Essex, designed and carried out the work, from which a light was first exhi- bited in October, 1698. In the following year he strengthened the tower and raised it 40 feet, or to a total height of 120 feet. The finished structure is shown in the model, and was continued " with great (reputation " until the great storm of 26th November, 1703, during which it was destroyed, and the brave and devoted constructor, who hap- pened to be there at the time, with workmen and keepers, perished. " Many fair tombs in the glorious glooms At Westminster they show ; The brave and the great lie there in state Winstanley lieth low." (Jean Ingelow.") 4107 The Second Eddystone Lighthouse. The Winstanley Lighthouse having been destroyed by a great storm in 1703, the structure shown in the model was designed and completed by Mr. John Rudyerd, a silk mercer of Ludgate Hill, aided by two experienced shipwrights, Messrs. Smith and Norcott, from Woolwich dockyard. The tower was of wood, built around a core of solid moorstone (granite) in the base. It$ , greatest diameter was about 24 feet, and the whole height from on the recommendation of the Royal Society, the lessees placed the work of reconstruction in the hands of Mr. John Smeaton, a member of that Society, distinguished by his inventions in mechanical improvements. He determined to build the tower entirely of stone, each block dovetailed into its neighbours, so as to make the tower practically solid. Work was commenced at the rock on 5th August, 1756 ; the first stone laid June I2th, 1757, the last on 24th August, 1 759, and the light exhibited by candles as before on l6th October, 1759. Candles were superseded by oil lamps and reflectors in 1810, and a lenticular apparatus adopted, 1845. 4109 The Fourth Eddystone Lighthouse. The portion of the gneiss rock on which Smeaton 's tower rested having been seriously shaken by the sea, the Trinity House found it necessary to build another tower on a portion of the rock eastward of the existing light. The new tower was built, from the design and under the superintendence of Sir James Douglass, F.R.S. , by Mr. Thomas Edmond and Mr. W. T. Douglass, resident engineers. First stone laid on August I9th, 1879, and the last on 1st June, 1881, both by His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh. The base is 44 feet in diameter; the light, which is lenticular in bi-form, is"33i feet above high-water spring tides. 4110 Ancient Pharos. The tower here represented is now standing within the Castle Yard at Dover, and is mentioned by many early writers, Somner, Leland, Camden, &c. , as the remains of a Roman Pharos. It fell into ruin in the early part of the i8th century, but was recently restored by the Royal Engineers. The model was presented to the Trinity House by General Collinson, R. E. 4111 Smalls Rock Lighthouses. First and Second. The old light was exhibited from a wooden structure built in 1778 by Mr. Henry White- side, which was removed in 1861 when the new light was built of granite, from the design and under the superintendence of James Walker, Esq., F.R.S., by Mr. (now Sir) James N. Douglass, F.R.S. THK Australian Irrigation Colonies (Chaffey Brothers) offer a pleasant occupation, a healthy life, a cheerful home, a soil of unequalled fertility producing by irri- gation results unparalleled in the annals of Horticulture comfort, civilization, and material prosperity combined. They consist of half-a-million acres, in the sunny and salubrious climate of Victoria, and South Australia, on the great River Murray, which affords an abundant supply of fertilizing water for the Irrigation of Vineyards and Fruit Farms, and for the production, in assured quantity and excellence, of Grapes, Oranges, Lemons, Olives, Apricots, Figs, and other Fruits (already so suc- cessfully grown in Australia), by Cultivators with large and small Capital, holding from Ten to Eighty Acres and upwards. The Wines and Fruits of Australia are now in extensive demand in British and Colonial Markets, and there is a practically unlimited field for such production under most profitable conditions to the Settlers.

A set of progressive sizes, from two to ten wicks for vegetable or mineral oil, and one of ten rings for gas. 4113 Nore and Dudgeon Light Ships, 1731, 1736. This model repre- sents the first Light Ships moored on the English coast for the guidance of Mariners ; two were fitted out by Mr. Robert Hamblin and Mr. David Avery, one placed to mark the Nore Sand, River Thames, and one off the Dudgeon Shoal, Norfolk. 4114 Goodwin Light Ship, 1795. 4115 Parabolic Reflector for Lighthouses or Light Vessels. The Reflector is made of copper, of 21 inches aperture, upon the principle first applied by Captain Sir Joseph Huddart, F.R.S., an Elder Brother of the Trinity House ; it is silvered on the inside, and burnished. For a shore light it is fixed on a framework, but in light vessels it is hung upon gimbals. 4116 Maplin Pile Lighthouse. Built in 1838, on iron screw piles on the north side of the Thames Estuary, under the direction of James Walker, Esq., F. R.S., then Engineer-in-Chief to the Trinity House. The Light is 36 feet above high water. The piles are all screwed 14 feet into the sand by Mitchell's patent screw, four feet diameter. The separate model represents the lower portion of the pile. 4117 Piano-Convex Lens. Used in Portland Lighthouses, Dorsetshire, in the year 1 789. 4118 Facet Reflector. Specimen of a Reflector of 21 inches aperture, and Lamp, used first at Liverpool under the direction of Mr. Thomas Hutchinson, in 1763, and afterwards at Lowestoft and other lighthouses. 4119 Model of Bishop Rock Lighthouse, 1858 1881. Built in place of an uncompleted iron structure from designs by James Walker, Esq., F.R.S., by Mr. Nicholas Douglass, assisted by Mr. (now Sir) J. N. Douglass, F.R.S., completed in 1858. The light was no feet above high water. 4120 Bishop Rock Present Lighthouse. In consequence of injuries sustained through excessive strains, the Trinity House found it necessary to encase the tower then existing with granite masonry, and increase the height of the light by 20 ft. , which was successfully carried out by Mr. W. T. Douglass, under the supervision of Sir James N. Douglass, F.R.S., and finished in 1889. 4121 Model of St. Catherine's Lighthouse. Originally established in 1780, reduced in height as a precaution against landslip in 1840, and furnished with an electric light in 1888. It is believed to be the most powerful electric light in the world. 4121 A Model of the Needles Lighthouse. The Light which had been exhibited since 1780 from a Tower on the Isle of Wight was frequently obscured by Fog. It was therefore transferred in 1858- to the present structure built on the rock itself. This Tower was designed by Mr. James Walker, F.R.S., and was carried out under the superintendence of Mr. Thomas Ormiston, M.Inst.C.E. The works were frequently inspected during progress by H.R.H. The Prince Consort, then Master of the Corporation of Trinity House. 368 Navigation Section. [Cook Lent by the Corporation of Trinity House continued. 41218 Model of the Hanois Lighthouse. Built in 1862 on a rock lying off the West End of Guernsey. A granite structure designed by Mr. James Walker, F.R.S., and erected under the superintendence of Mr. William Douglass, M.I.C.E. The optical apparatus is dioptric of the First Order, revolving, having a six wick Douglass Lamp in focus. The Tower from base to vane is 117 feet in height. 41210 Model of the Little Basses Lighthouse. Built on the Little Basses Rock, S. E. coast of Ceylon, in 1876.

Specimen of Carbons the small size used at Dungeness in 1862, and the large at St. Catherine's. 1889. 41251? Gas Burner, Douglass Six Ring. Designed by Sir James N. Douglass, F.R.S., with the object of obtaining the maximum of intensity within the smallest practicable focal area. The intensity of the flame is 825 candle units, its consumption of gas 101 '2 feet per hour. 4126 Smeaton's Eddystone Candle. The light as first arranged was given by 24 candles ("whereof five weighed two pounds"), arranged on a chandelier in two rows or rings, one above another. 4127 Panel of a First Order Lenticular Apparatus. Made by Messrs. Cookson, of Newcastle, and placed in the Start Lighthouse in 1836. 4I27A Refracting Lenticular Panel. One of the Panels used in the experi- ments on Lighthouse Illuminants and called in the report the " Eddy" stone Lens." Subtending a larger vertical angle than had before been attempted, in order to avoid the loss occasioned by the suppression of upper and lower prisms. The focal length is 920 mm. and subtends an angle of 60 horizontally, so that six panels would complete the circle. Its superficial dimensions are 75^ inches by 40^ inches. 4128 Dungeness Lens Electric Light. When the Electric Light was first exhibited permanently at Dungeness in 1862, after experimental exhibition at South Foreland in 1858, this Electric Lamp and special lens were used in duplicate, one set above the other, under the direc- tion of Professor Holmes and Professor Faraday, F.R.S.

Situated on a reef of rocks on the west of Scotland, exposed to the force of the Atlantic Ocean, and 10 miles from Tyree, the nearest inhabited island. Designed and executed by Alan Stevenson, L.L.B., F.R.S.E., M.Inst.C.E., and Engineer to the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses. Height of masonry 141 feet, diameter at base 42 feet. Commenced 1838, finished 1844. 4135 North Unst Lighthouse. Situated on the Rock Muckle Flugga (the most northern point of Her Majesty's Dominions), Shetland. It is built on an outlying rock of a conical form "called a "Stack," rising to the height of 200 feet above high water, to which height the sea has been known to rise with such force as to knock down the boundary walls and break the doors open. Its northern face is nearly perpen- dicular, and exposed to the full fetch of the Northern Ocean ; the southern face is a steep rocky slope, which, previous to the cutting of steps in its surface, could only be scaled with difficulty. The top of the rock affords little more area than is sufficient for the site of the lighthouse. A temporary light was erected in 1854 for the guidance of the Baltic Fleet, and the permanent station was completed in 1858. Designed and executed by David Stevenson, F. R.S.E. , M.InstC.E., Engineer to the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses. 4136 Facet Parabolic Reflector. As used in the earliest Scottish Light- houses in 1 787 by Thomas Smith, |Engineer to the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses. 4137 Silver Plated Parabolic Reflector. With sliding lamp to secure accurate focussing. Designed by Robert Stevenson, Engineer to the Northern Lighthouse Board, 1811. 4138 Skerryvore Catadioptric Revolving Apparatus. With Fresnel's lenses, but extended to 56 in altitude. The light is received and col- lected into eight horizontal beams by the principal lenses ; the light which would escape above them is collected into eight inclined beams by small lenses, and reflected to the horizon by inclined mirrors. The lower part of the light is sent equally to all parts of the horizon by Alan Stevenson's prismatic rings of glass, which act as mirrors. The rings at Skerryvore are the first that were made of the largest or first Order size.

The central part of this apparatus consists of eight lenses. The light which passes above and below these lenses is collected into eight horizontal beams by annular shaped reflecting prisms. These reflecting prisms were substituted for the inclined lenses and mirrors of Fresnel's first Order revolving apparatus by Thomas Stevenson, and were first used at Singapore in 1849, on a small scale, and on a large scale at North Ronaldsay, in Orkney, in 1851, both designed by Messrs.

It is used at nine Lighthouses in the Western Highlands of Scotland, where small apparatus has been made to produce in those particular azimuths (where alone great power is required) effects equal to much larger apparatus, consuming proportionately large quantities of oil. 4141 Azimuthal Condensing Ships' Light, designed to distribute the whole light equally over ten points of compass, in accordance with the Board of Trade requirements. Applied first in 1866 to the Pharos, Northern Lighthouse Steamer. Designed by D. and T. Stevenson, Engineers to the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses. 4142 Hyper-Radiant Lens of i33O mm > in place of 92o mm radius, suggested by Messrs. Stevenson in 1869, with the view of utilizing to the full the flame from the larger diameter of burners recently introduced, this, the first lens of its size, was made to Messrs. Stevenson's design in 1885, and tried at the South Foreland experiments the same year, when it was found to be optically the most efficient lighting apparatus yet made, and has since been introduced into numerous lighthouses at home and abroad. 4143 Dioptric Holophote. This apparatus was designed by Thomas Stevenson for Lighthouse Illumination. It collects all the light of the lamp into one beam of parallel rays solely by means of glass. The apparatus constituting the front half of the instrument bends the light that falls upon it into a beam of parallel rays, while the prisms which constitute the back half are so formed as to prevent any light from passing through, and to cause every ray to return back to the flame, and to be finally transmitted through the front half, so as to increase the intensity of the emergent beam. A red ball is fixed on a wire so as to be in focus to illustrate the action of the instrument. To an observer the front half of the apparatus will appear full of red light, but in the back half no red is to be seen, though the wire which carries the ball, not being in focus, is distinctly visible. 4144 Dhu Heartach Lighthouse. Situated on a rock on the West Coast of Scotland, exposed to the force of the Atlantic Ocean, and fourteen miles from lona, the nearest land. Designed and executed by D. and T. Stevenson, Engineers to the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses. Height of masonry 107 feet 9 inches, diameter at base 36 feet. Commenced 1867, finished 1872. 4145 Model of First Order fixed Dioptric Light This apparatus consists of a central lenticular belt, and an upper and lower set of reflecting prisms. The cylindrical belt with diagonal joints and the upper and lower reflecting prisms were substituted by Alan Stevenson in 1836 for the segmental belt and upper and lower silvered mirrors of Fresnel's first order apparatus. \ of full size. 4146 Smalls Lighthouse.

In the year 1713, Sir Isaac Newton, in a paper read to the House of Commons, mentioned various schemes proposed for rinding the longitude at sea. He stated that the simplest method would be to use a watch or dock which would keep correct time, in spite of the ship's motion, the variation of tem- perature, the change of gravity, etc., but that such a watch had not yet been made. A Bill drawn up by General Stanhope was passed to the effect (i.) That a reward should be granted to any person inventing a means to discover the Longitude at sea. (2.) That a Committee (the Board of Longitude) should be appointed to judge such inventions. (3.) That a reward of ^10,000 should be granted to any person deter- mining the Longitude to within one degree of a great circle, or 60 geographical miles. (4.) That a reward of ^15,000 should be granted for a determination of the Longitude to within 40 geographical miles. 382 Navigation Section. [Cook (5.) That a reward of ,20,000 should be granted for a determination of the Longitude to within 30 geographical miles. (6.) That the machine should be tested by a voyage to some port in the West Indies. Mr. John Harrison applied himself with great industry to the improvement of timekeepers, and in 1 726 succeeded in making a pendulum clock which kept excellent time. By 1736 he had made various modifications, and introduced them in a machine which performed very well on a voyage to Lisbon. A second and improved machine was made in 1739, and in 1758 he had completed a third and smaller machine. Neither of these went on a voyage, for in 1759 he had completed a fourth of comparatively small size, and of entirely different construction. This watch or time-keeper (now exhibited) after two successful voyages to the West Indies, finally procured for him the prize of ,20,000. It is not a chronometer as we understand the term at the present day. The modem chronometer is the result of several improvements, made in rapid succession, of which a general idea may be obtained from the specimens exhibited. 4261 Harrison's Machines for measuring' time (Nos. i and 2). No. I is Harrison's second attempt. He had made in the previous year a machine on the same principle which performed very well on a voyage to Lisbon. In these machines, two straight rod balances vibrate in opposite directions, so that the effect of the ship's motion on one would be counteracted by its effect on the other. Date, 1737. 4262 No. 2 is Harrison's next attempt. It is smaller in size, and the straight rod balances are replaced by plain wheel balances. Date, 1758. Neither of these machines went on a voyage. 4263 Harrison's Timekeeper. This watch or time-keeper, which gained for its inventor the reward of ,20,000, was finished in 1761, and on Nov. 18, 1761, sailed in the " Deptford " for Jamaica, where the ship arrived Jan. 19, 1762. The Longitude of Port Royal as shewn by the watch, only differed five seconds (about one nautical mile) from the truth ; and on its return to Portsmouth the watch was only in error I min. 54-5 sec., equivalent to 18 nautical miles. In 1764 another voy- age was made to Barbadoes, where it was found to be only 43 seconds in error, equivalent to about 1 1 nautical miles. On its return it was found to have gained only 54 seconds in the whole voyage of 156 days. It has a plain balance, the effect of temperature on the balance and spring being corrected by a compensation curb (brass and steel lamina) acting on the spring. John Harrison was born at Faulby, Yorkshire, 1693. He lived for some time at Barrow, in Lincolnshire, as a carpenter. He devoted his whole life to horology, and in 1 735 came to London, where he made the two machines exhibited. Besides gaining the prize of ,20,000 for his watch, he made many improvements in horology, and is credited with the invention of the gridiron pendulum in 1726, and of the going fusee. He died in 1776. 4264 Chronometer by Larcum Kendall, an apprentice to Harrison. This was made on the pattern of Harrison's, as evidence that another maker could construct a chronometer satisfactorily from Harrison's designs, in accordance with the conditions of the award of ,20,000.

Turning to his right at the end of the COOK GALLERY, the Visitor will at once find himself in the SEPPINGS GALLERY, so named after Sir Robert Seppings, an eminent Naval Architect, who filled the office of Surveyor of the Navy in the reign of George IV. The contents of this gallery are of peculiar interest, consisting principally of Models of Marine Engines, and of Ships' Boats, Rafts, &c. In the case of the former the collection is necessarily not very large, but is compensated for by the im- portance and representative character of the exhibits. In the case of the Ship Models, however, there can be no question that so valuable and complete a collection has never before been got together. MARINE ENGINES. THE first attempt at applying steam-power to propel a vessel has been attributed to Blasco de Garay, who in 1543 is said to have propelled a boat of 200 tons displacement at a speed of one league per hour. In 1690 a proposal to propel a boat by steam was made by Denis Papin and the engine actually constructed, but it was destroyed by boatmen of the Weser before being put into use. About 1787 an engine was constructed by William Symington and fitted to a double boat belonging to Patrick Miller, of Dalswinton, which was driven by means of a paddle-wheel placed between the two parts of the boat. The trial was made in 1788 and was successful. In 1801 Symington constructed for Lord Dundas the "Charlotte Dundas" which was worked for some time on the Forth and Clyde Canal. This boat was fitted with a single paddle- wheel placed near the stem, driven by a horizontal direct acting engine with connecting rod and crank. In 1807 Robert Fulton, in America, produced the " Clermont " which was propelled by paddle-wheels driven by an engine of 20 H. P, Models Section. Sub-Division Marine Engines. [SeppingS The first passenger steamer in Europe, the "Comet," ran on the Clyde between Glasgow and Greenock. She was constructed in 1812 by Henry Bell. The engines were of a design somewhat similar to the side lever engines of a later day. Steam vessels were introduced into the Royal Navy about 1827. On December the 4th of that year three small paddle steamers, called respectively the "Echo," "Lightning," and "Meteor," were commissioned. The engines of these boats were of IOO nominal horse-power, and are well represented by Mcdel (i) in Messrs. Maudslay's collection. Between this date and 1840, seventy other steam vessels were added to the Navy, the majority being fitted with flue boilers and side lever engines, working with a steam pressure of 4 Ibs. per square inch above the atmosphere. A simple type of engine for driving paddle-wheels is that known as the Oscillating Engine, which was first adopted for marine purposes by Messrs. Maudslay, and subsequently perfected by Mr. John Penn. In this type of engine the connecting rod is dispensed with, the piston rod being connected directly with the crank, thus economising space as far as possible. This is the type now largely adopted for paddle-wheel vessels, and is illustrated by mcdeli No. I of Messrs. Pcnn's collection and No. 9 of Messrs. Maudslay's, the latter being a model of the engine f.tted to H.M. Yacht "Osborne." Another type of engine used for driving paddle-wheels was Messrs. Maudslay's Double Cylinder Engine, in which the crosshead passed down between the cylinders, having a journal at its lower end to which the con- necting rod was attache!. This type is illustrated by model 2 in Messrs. Maudslay's collection, and was fitted by them to nine ships of the Royal Navy between 1840 and 1846. A modification of this type is represented by models 3 and 4 in Messrs. Maudslay's collection, in which the crosshead works in a cylinder co-axial with the steam cylinder. No. 3 is suitable for paddle-wheels, and No. 4 for screw propulsion. Between 1840 and 1850, tubular boilers were introduced. These were made much lighter and more compact than the flue boiler, and the working pressure of steam raised to from 10 to 15 Ibs. per square inch above the atmosphere. During the same period the substitution of the screw propeller for the paddle- wheel began to grow general, and its adoption necessitated a higher speed of propeller shaft than in the paddle-wheel vessels. This was first obtained by gearing the engine, as it was not then possible to drive the piston at the high speed necessary for connecting the engine direct to the propeller shaft. Improvements were, however, soon made, so that the speed of piston could be sufficiently increased to allow the crank and propeller shaft to be directly connected. In this case the close proximity of the cylinders to the centre line of the ship when .he engines were horizontal made it difficult to get a connecting Gallery] Models Section. Sub-Division Marine Engines. 4 O1 rod of suitable length to work between the cylinder and the crank. To over- come this difficulty two types of engines were introduced. One was the trunk engine invented by the late Mr. John Penn, in which a large hollow trunk fixed on the piston was substituted for the piston red and the connecting rod attached directly to a journal in the centre of the piston itself. The other was the Return Connecting Rod Engine in which there were two or four reds to each piston passing symmetrically above and below the crank shaft to the opposite side of the ship. The further ends of these ruds were fixed to a cross-head having a journal at its centre from which the connecting rod worked back to the crank. The first of these two types is shown by Model No. (2) of Messrs. Pcnn's collection which represents the engines of H.M.S's. " Minotaur " and "Northumberland," made in 1865. The second is illustrated by Models (5\ (6), (7) and (8), of Messrs. Mautlslay's collection. Between 1851 and 1860, Messrs. Maudslay fitted 42 ships of the Royal Navy with engines similar to No. (5); 13 similar to No. (6) between 1854 and 1861 ; four similar to No. (7) in 1861 and 1862 ; and 6 similar to No. (8) between 1860 and 1865. It may be remarked that several ships were still successfully fitted by Messrs. Humphrys, Tenant & Co., with the direct acting type of engine, This firm has also in recent years made very many engines for ships of the Royal Navy. Model (li) represents a horizontal engine, direct acting, as fitted in the Danish frigate ' Thor" in 1850. The majority of steam- ships built during the years 1850 and 1860 were with horizontal screw propeller engines having jet condensers and working with a steam pressure of 20 to 25 Ibs. About 1860 the adoption of surface condensation became general, and this by considerably reducing the element of danger due to the deposition of solid matter on the heating surfaces rendered the use of high pressure steam possible and led to the introduction of compound engines and cylindrical boilers. The increase in the pressures of the steam made compound engines, in which the expansion is carried out in two cylinders, a necessity, and the first ship of the Royal Navy fitted with them was the " Constance " whose engines were constructed in 1863, by Messrs. Elder & Co., of Glasgow. Model No. (3) in Messrs. Penn's collection represents a three cylinder simple expansion engine, which can by an adjust- ment of the stop valves be converted into v. compound engine, made by Messrs. Penn in 1876, for the Royal Italian Vessel " Christoforo Colombo." No. (12) of Messrs. Maudslays Models represents a set of Vertical Compound Engines, fitted by them in White Star Company's vessels "-Britannic " and four others in 1870 and 1871, and also in several ships of the French Transatlantic Company. As the pressures of steam increased above 100 Ibs. per square inch the variation of temperature in each cylinder of the compound engine became so great as to prevent the full economy due to the high pressure and consequent great expansion being attained, on account of the loss from lique- 402 Models Section. Sub-Division Marine Engines. [SeppingS faction. To meet this difficulty, Mr. A. C. Kirk, of the firm of Messrs. Napier & Sons, Glasgow, introduced the triple expansion engine in which the expansion is carried out in three stages in separate cylinders, thus reducing the range of temperature in each cylinder. A set of these engines was fitted in 1874, to the S. S. " Propontis " working with a steam pressure of 1 50 Ibs. per square inch, and gave good results, but very little further was done in this direction until in 1881, when Mr. Kirk fitted a set of triple expansion engines on board the S. S. " Aberdeen," the results in this instance were so satisfactory that other engines of this type soon followed and are now generally adopted. All the recent ships built for the Royal Navy are fitted with triple expansion engines. The photograph in Messrs. Penn's collection represents the engines of this type now being fitted in II. M.S's. "Sappho" and "Scylla," they are twin screw of 900 I. H. P., with a working pressure of 155 Ibs. per square inch. The Model exhibited by Messrs. Hawthorn, Leslie & Co., is a good specimen of this type of engine. H. M.S. "Blenheim" (9000 tons displace- ment) now being built at the Thames Iron Works is fitted with twin screws, each screw being driven by two sets of engines of this type which are guaranteed to develop a total power of 20,000 horses.

THE Models exhibited m?y be regarded as forming two groups, one consisting of ships built for war purposes, and belonging almost exclusively to the British Navy ; and the other, of ships exhibited by the various Shipbuilding Firms in the British Empire. The models in the second group include many types of war vessels, and the finest ships in the Mercantile Marine. These models are for the most part prepared in the best style of modellers' work. Many of the models in the first group have been prepared for the use of the designers, and not for exhibition. They illustrate the gradual increase in offensive and defensive power, and the changes which have been caused by the introduction of steam power for propulsion, and armour for defence. Ships often undergo many changes in rig, armament, and appearance, during their existence ; and Officers and Men who have served in the ships must be prepared to find in the models occasional variations from the conditions with which they were familiar in the ships. INDICES FOR GUIDANCE IN SEEING THE MODELS OF SHIPS. There is an Alphabetical Index of Ships' Names on page 441 and following pages, which includes every Ship represented. This index gives the Catalogue Number of the Exhibit. Some of these are in the Historical Series, formed mainly of loans from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, but including also a few good models lent by private persons. Many others are included in Trade Groups. So far as these last are concerned a description of each ship* represented is included in that of the General Exhibit of the Shipowner or Shipbuilder. HISTORICAL SERIES. All the ships included in thij series are described in the following pages. In this series there is a good collection of models of Ships of War of the eighteenth century, some of British design, and seme captured ships. Of seventeenth century ships there are three models, viz., the " Royal Sovereign," the " Royal William," and the " Ruby." Of sixteenth century ships there are only the very doubtful models of the "Great Harry." THE SCALE OF MODELS. The models are made upon very different scales, and although the scale is usually stated upon the model, visitors may find a difficulty in appreciating the various sizes of the ships. To meet this difficulty a number of miniature models of existing British Ships 46 Models Section. Sub- Division Ships, Boats, and Rafts. [SeppingS have been made upon an uniform scale ; and it will b'e easy by studying this group (No. 4725) to realise the differences in size of the various ships shown on larger scales in the Exhibition.

St. Vincent Gallery] Ordnance Section. 467 Having now completed the tour of the Main building, the Visitor will find himself opposite the exit into the grounds, and in order to complete the round of the galleries, should proceed at once to the ST. VINCENT GALLERY, situated on the North side of the grounds, and containing the exhibits of the ORDNANCE SECTION. THE exhibits appertaining to this section are located in the St. Vincent, Armstrong, and a portion of the Camperdovvn Galleries respectively ; they have been selected to illustrate, as far as practicable, the history of Naval War materiel. Naval Gunnery, as a science, dates from a very recent period, viz., 1832, when a gunnery school, H.M. Ship "Excellent," was established at Ports- mouth, under Captain Sir Thomas Hastings ; previous to that date, every Captain 'of a man-of-war had his own system of Drills and fitted his own appliances to the guns. Up to the early part of this century, there were no tangent or despart sights, without which, it is needless to say, no good or certain practice could take place. In the old wars, the Captain of "The Duke," Sir Charles Douglas, and the Captain of the "Shannon," Sir G. Broke, took great interest in developing the gunnery resources of their ships, the former introducing flannel cartridges (i.e., cartridges made up in flannel) and "sights." So also in later years the "Illustrious" was noted for her gunnery proficiency, but there was no central organisation or uniform system of Naval gunnery till very recently. In the St. Vincent and Armstrong Galleries, specimen guns have been arranged in chronological order from the time of Henry VI., culminating with the very latest weapons and their appliances. Of the earlier types of guns but little can be said ; they were all of "Smooth Bore," projecting round shot, with little accuracy; and it was not till the Crimean War, and about the year 1860, that changes began, to which, up to the present date, there is apparently no finality. Rifling and Breech-loading were then adopted in guns designed by Sir W. Armstrong; and to withstand the increased stress, these were built, instead of being cast, with coils of wrought iron round a central tube. The system of Breech-loading at first introduced proved unreliable, and about 1865 muzzle-loading (R. M. L.) was again restarted to. The chief drawback to this system of loading is the necessity, in ship work, for thort barrels, and the consequent impossibility of developing power by the burning 468 Ordnance Section. [St. Vincent of large charges of powder ; the result being that only small charges, relative to the weight of the projectile, could adyantageously be used, and the Initial Velocity (i.e., the velocity with which the .projectile leaves the bore of the gun), on which so much depends, was correspondingly low seldom exceeding 1,400 feet per second. Several expedients the chief one being the enlarge- ment of the chambers were resorted to, to overcome this defect, but no real success accrued therefrom. About 1882 it became evident that if we were to have a Naval Artillery of any power, breech-loading (B.L. ) should take the place of muzzle-loading, at least in heavy guns ; and frcm this dates our present system, which is continually being improved. Its chief feature is the method of closing the breech by a screw plug, the screw being interrupted ; a pad of asbestos, placed between tin discs with steel rings at the end of the plug, is so fitted as to prevent the escape of gas to the rear when the charge is ignited ; and another feature, as concerns the tne loading of these guns on board ship, is the admissibility of longer barrels, by which means a slow burning powder and larger charges can be used, with a consequent gain in increase of energy. Guns, with calibres of 4 in. to 16^ in., designed on this principle are now used on board ship, but the "life" of the larger guns is rendered very precarious, owing to the wear and tear of the tube by erosion of the gas evolved from the combustion of such necessarily large charges of powder. QUICK FIRING GUNS. Guns of this type have one barrel, and are to be seen among the exhibits of the Armstrong Company and the Maxim-Nordenfelt Company respectively. They have been designed successfully up to a calibre of 6 ins., projecting a too Ib. missile at the rate of six per minute, and in the lower calibres as quickly as 30 per minute. This rapidity is effected by the "charge" (both Powder and Projectile) being made up in a metal case, which has moreover many incidental advantages. These guns have been introduced into the Naval service as the best antidote to the attack of torpedo boats. MACHINE GUNS. These guns are represented in the Naval Service in various types, e.g., Catling 10 barrel, Nordenfelt four and five barrel, Gardner five and two barrel, and the Maxim-Automatic. In some of these the barrels are disposed round a central axis, in others they are disposed horizontally. They can be fired as slowly or as rapidly up to 600 rounds per minute as is required. The charge, like that of the Quick-Firing gun, is compound, and the rapidity of fire is governed by the system of "feed," i.e., the supply of cartridges to the barrel. In the automatic gun, or maximum design, the recoil after discharge is utilised to perform the subsequent operations of load- ing and firing. The characteristics of Quick-Firing and Machine guns, are lightness and Gallery] Ordnance Section. 469 rapidity of fire and service by a small number of men, which are invaluable qualities in the presence of s\varms of torpedo boats, and uncovered men. MOUNTINGS. Under this heading are comprised the various means by which the fire of the guns is directed and controlled. In early days, up to even a recent period, guns were mounted on wooden carriages which were worked by hand- spikes (wooden levers) for training, and tackles for running them "in and out of the ports," breechings (thick rope) being used to control the energy of the recoil. Later on, the mounting for heavy guns took the form of a carriage and slide, the latter affording greater facility for directing the gun, and also of absorbing its recoil by means of compressors, it being observed that with muzzle loading guns it was necessary to retain the gun inboard after each discharge, to perform the operation of loading. With the present B. L. guns the reverse is required; the recoil is absorbed by hydraulic pressure and the gun then returns automatically to its loading position. Lateral motion is obtained by meanr of geared pinions working in a racer on the deck, and vertical motion is given to the gun by geared wheels. With guns up to 10 ins. , hand power actuates both these motions ; but with heavier natures, which are mounted generally in pairs, in turrets, or on barbettes, hydraulic power is used, and armour is employed to protect the necessary machinery. EXPLOSIVES. l^owder. Gunpowder and gun cotton are the only explosives used in the British Naval Service, the former being used entirely for guns and small arms, the latter for Torpedoes and Submarine work. The charges for every gun in the service, past (as far as practicable) and present, are exhibited, as also the cases in which they are stowed in a ship's magazine, and transported thence to the guns when required. Although in all charges the ingredients of the powder exist in the same proportions, the shape and size of the grains vary considerably, according to the nature of the charge ; and in this direction great progress has been made in recent years. The old powders for the S. B. (smooth bore) guns, from the relatively small size of the grain, burnt very quickly, and in heavy charges from rifled guns gave rise to violent pressures. With the short barrels of the muzzle loading gun it was at first found impracticable to burn a large charge with advantage, a large proportion thereof being driven out of the muzzle without being ignited ; but in some measure (about 1876) this was obviated by enlarging the chambers of the gun and igniting the charge in such a manner as to ensure a more uniform combustion. In the old guns the charge was made up in paper and ignited with a match. Towards the close of the last century, however, Sir Charles Douglas introduced a flannel cartridge with locks and quill tubes, but 47 Ordnance Section. [St. Vincent the flannel left a smouldering residue in the bore after discharge, and rendered it somewhat dangerous in M. L. guns to load again with anything like rapidity ; in the new guns, however, the bag is made of silk cloth (which is found to leave but little residue on burning), and in heavy guns the charge is made up in several parts to facilitate handling. In Quick Firing and Machine guns, in Rifles and Pistols, the charge is made up in a metal case, which holds powder, projectile, and the means of ignition. Gun Cotton. Gun cotton is stowed on board ship both in a " vret " and " dry" condition ; the former, containing 18 per cent, of moisture, is sufficiently damp to resist ordinary means of ignition, but nevertheless develops its full power when detonated with the "dry" in small quantities. The rapidity and violence of its action renders gun cotton unsuitable for guns and small arms. PROJECTILES. There have always been several natures of projectiles for the same type of gun, such as shell (common and shrapnel), shot (solid, case, grape, red hot, and chain), carcases, &c., all of which were designed for special purposes. Considerable progress has been made in the design and manufacture of projectiles since 1876, up to which date they were made chiefly of cast iron : now they are made of forged or cast steel, and the largest in the Naval Service weighs i,8co Ibs., which, when propelled by 960 Ibs. of gunpowder, has an initial velocity of nearly 2,000 " feet-seconds," a sufficient energy to send it through 33 inches of iron. Increased accuracy is obtained by the recent method of imparting rotation to the projectile, which is now effected (as also erosion mitigated) by driving rings of soft metal (copper) pressed on the base, instead of the older system of studs, which weakened the walls of the projectile. Flint Locks were superseded by percussion caps and hammers for small arms in 1840, and by detonating tubes and hammers for guns in 1842. Sir Charles Douglas introduced the flint lock at the close of last century. Smooth Bore Muskets were in general use in the Navy until 1854, the first year of the Russian War, when Minie Rifles were introduced, each ship being supplied in the first instance with rifles and smooth-bore muskets in the proportion of one-third and two-thirds respectively of her complement, until a sufficient number of the former -became available to make their supply general. Large Pistols (Cavalry pattern) were used in the Navy until 1846, when a smaller pattern, having a rib on the side for attaching to the waist-belt, was introduced, and these continued in use until the beginning of the Russian War, when * small supply of Colt's revolvers was made to each ship, the numbers being gradually increased until the supply became general. After Colt's came the " Deane and Adams" revolver, then the "Adams," and in 1887 the present pattern, the " Enfield." Gallery] Ordnance Section. 47* ORDNANCE.

VINCENT GALLERY is the ARMSTRONG GALLERY, containing the EXHIBIT OF WARLIKE MATERIAL manu- factured by SIR W. G. ARMSTRONG, MITCHELL, & Co., Limited, Elswick Works, Newcastle-on-Tyne. This Exhibit is divided in Sections as follows : SECTION I. In this Section will be seen a 6-inch 5-ton Gun, mounted on a hydro- pneumatic mounting, which is specially designed, and largely in use for coast defence purposes. In this principle the gun, with its mounting, and the crew working the same, are concealed in a pit, the top of which is on the level of the surrounding country. The gun is loaded and laid (or aimed) in the pit, the last operation being carried out by means of reflecting mirrors, and when ready is allowed to rise above the pit (which it does automatically by means of the air which has been compressed in the cylinder by the recoil of the gun after the previous round). After firing, the influence of the recoil causes the gun immediately to descend again into the pit, leaving only the puff of smoke to direct the return fire against the gun. Guns up to 68 tons weight, throwing projectiles of 1,250 Ibs., have been mounted with success on this principle, which has been made the subject of most exhaustive experiments with a view to ascertaining what the effect of a ship's fire on such a system would be. In 1885 a model gun was-mounted on a disappearing carriage in a pit at the extremity of Portland Bill, and H.M.S. " Hercules " fired over 150 rounds at it, and although the model was made of wood only, it went through the ordeal, coming up as if to deliver fire and then disappearing again, without the slightest injury. The mounting on exhibit will be worked every day punctually at 3 and 6 p.m. If required to be worked at any other time a charge of 2s. 6d. will be made. SECTION II. In this Section is shown a 3-pounder Hotchkiss Gun, fitted with the ELswick electrically illuminated sights for night use. As these small quick- firing guns are specially designed and manufactured with a view to repelling the attacks of torpedo boats, which attacks would generally be made at night, the necessity of providing the gunner with a means of directing his fire by such " night sights " is apparent. 49 2 Ordnance Section. [Armstrong SECTION III. This Section contains an exhibit of Quick-firing Guns. It will perhaps be well to explain that in the ordinary system of breech-loading guns it is abso- lutely necessary to wash or sponge out the powder-chamber after each round, and thus a considerable time is occupied. Further delay In leading is occa- sioned by extracting and inserting a tube, or primer, each round, to ignite the powder charge ; but in quick-firing guns both these causes of delay are got over by the use of a metal cartridge case which contains the priming tube. In 1886 the Armstrong firm designed and submitted to the Admiralty a quick- firing gun to fire a 36 Ib. projectile. After trial, however, it was decided to increase the weight of the projectile to 45 Ibs. , and to adopt the gun as the principal armament of cruisers and small vessels. Since then 420 of these guns have been manufactured at Elswick for the Royal Navy alone. Further experiments, carried out by the Armstrong Firm, resulted in the production of large quick-firing guns of 6 inches in calibre, capable of firing a 120 Ib. pro- jectile, and also guns of smaller sizes suitable for the armament of torpedo boats, &c. Specimens of each of these guns are here shown, and it may be of interest to state that the rate of firing from them may be taken to be as follows : 6-inch quick-firing gun, 100 Ib. projectile, 6 rounds per minute* 4'7 > > 45 *2 ,, ,, 3*75 >' ^S ,, 14 3 > *2 20 ti NOTE. Cards giving the ballistic data of these guns can be obtained from the attendants. The guns shown in this Section are fitted with the " Morris Company Aiming Tubes" so that visitors can practice with the guns at a movable target, which is designed to a scale to represent a torpedo boat at 800 yards as she would appear while steaming at full speed at sea. SECTION IV. This Section represents the Battery of a modern Ironclad. It is now the invariable custom to supplement the main armament of large, turret or barbette, guns with a secondary battery of smaller guns, for which the quick- firing guns are particularly suitable. The guns shown in this exhibit are one 6-inch Q.F., three 47-inch Q.F., and two 6-pr. Hotchkiss. In the after part of the deck will be found the gun-room and a typical lieutenant's cabin, which have been furnished by the Army and Navy Co-operative Stores. The side lights used in the cabins are the invention of Mr. Mason. SECTION V. Consists of the Model Rooms, above the ground floor, which contains a most complete exhibit of very highly-finished models of modern men-of-war. Prominent among them will be seen one of H.M.S. "Victoria," to a scale of one inch equals one foot. This model is probably the largest and most com- plete that has ever been constructed, and shows in the most minute detail every fitting on board that magnificent ironclad. The torpedo nets on this model were made for the Exhibition by Bullivant Co., the well-known makers of wire-rope, &c. Gallery] Ordnance Section. 493 SECTION VI. The principal object here is a full-sized Section of the "Victoria's" Turret, in which is mounted a I lo-ton gun on hydraulic carriage. This gun fires a projectile of i,8oolbs. , and a powder charge of 960 Ibs., - and possesses an energy of 55,253 foot tons. The projectile and model of the charge, which is 9 feet in length, are also exhibited. The machinery for working these monster guns is on exactly the same design as that for working guns of 68 tons or 43 tons, nor does it require more men to attend to it. The armour of the " Victoria " turret consists of 17 inches steel-faced, and the weight of the entire turret, with its two guns, is about 900 tons. SECTION VII. In this Section will be found a 9 -2-inch B.-L. Gun on Elswick (Vavasseur) centre-pivot mounting. These guns are so mounted in the bow and stern of nearly all our larger cruisers. It will be observed that the mounting is designed so that the ammunition can be brought from the magazine up a central tube, and thus the gun can be readily loaded at any angle of training. On the floor in this Section will also be seen the rough forgings of steel from which a 6-inch Q.-F. gun is made ; as well as projectiles of all natures, cartridge cases, and other materials of interest. Outside the building a Time Gun is exhibited, which is made to fire auto- matically by electricity. The hours at which the gun is arranged to fire are 3 and 7 p.m., and the accuracy with which this is done by the combina- tion of clockwork and electricity should be specially observed. It only remains to be added that the building containing Messrs. Arm- strong's exhibit is 230 feet in length X 45 feet in breadth, and was erected by Messrs. North & Son, of London Road.

TORPEDO EXHIBIT. IN the arrangement of this most interesting Sub-Division, endeavour has been made to set clearly before the visitor the methods adopted and materials employed in the Science of what may be termed " Submarine Warfare," both for " Attack " and " Defence." ATTACK. Under this heading may be considered the Whitehead Torpedo, the ' ' Out- rigger " or " Spar" Torpedo, the system of Countermines, and the exercises known as " Creeping" and "Sweeping." In connection with the "Whitehead," Mr. Whitehead's original surface Torpedo is kindly lent by the inventor, and represents the prelude to the locomotive Torpedo warfare adopted by our Service. Different and distinct patterns of the Whitehead Torpedo, which may be fairly styled representative, are also to be seen, some of which are practically worked, as far as the engines and outside adjustments are concerned. The stack of Torpedoes (Exhibit No. 5153) also contains the following : The i6-inch Fiume Torpedo, which was carried by such ships as the "Minotaur" and " Agincourt," and is one of the earliest types of Mr. Whitehead's invention. The 14-inch Berlin Torpedo, the German copy of Mr. Whitehead's Mark I. Torpedo, with the exception that this one is made of Phosphor-bronze, a metal which has the advantage of not corroding in salt water, or oxidizing as is the case with steel or iron. The compound of this metal is kept secret. The Mark I. 14-inch Woolwich Torpedo, the first attempt from our own arsenal, differing from the Fiume in the arrangement of the tail and Ordnance Sec. Siib.-Div. Torpedo &> Electrical. [Camperdown rudders. (Mr. Whitehead's secret is retained in all our Torpedoes, though worked out mechanically in a different way.) The Mark VIII. 14-inch Woolwich Torpedo, the Torpedo of the ay, as far as the 1 4-inch Torpedo is concerned. In this weapon is incor- orated the improvements resulting from several years' labour and experiments made by the Arsenal Authorities assisted by our Naval Torpedo Schools. The outside is made of steel, as Phospor-bronze is too soft for the work. The internal mechanism is, however, made of the latter metal, which does not necessitate the continual parting for cleaning purposes, so important in the early patterns. It may be of interest to note, that although the idea in the construction of a Torpedo, is, no doubt, that it will be used once and once only in war time, yet in our ships so much practice with these weapons is carried out by a cer- tain proportion of the supply, that a Torpedo is frequently ' ' run " for exercise 500 or more times successfully. Methods of discharge. Various methods are adopted for discharging Torpedoes, above and below water. The propulsion is generated either by the explosion of a small charge of gunpowder, or by a volume of compressed air acting on the whole shell of the Torpedo from the rear of the discharging tube. Examples of what is termed " Dropping Gear " and a " Torpedo Tube " of recent date are exhibited. The Outrigger Boat. A model representing this boat fitted for service is shown with the mining exhibits. The success of an attack by an Outrigger boat depends mainly upon : (a) The coolness and courage of the officer in command. (b) Suitable conditions of weather and non-discovery of the boat until close to the vessel to be attacked. (c ) The explosion of the Torpedo at the proper moment. Notwithstanding these difficulties in this particular form of attack, the Iron- clad ram " Albemarle " was destroyed by a Steam Launch fitted in this way. The "Housatonic" was in like manner destroyed, and other American war ships were seriously damaged by similar attacks. The object in attacking with this form of Torpedo is to approach the ship without being observed, and to explode theguncotton at the end of the pole in actual contact with the ship's side. The pole is of sufficient length to allow the charge to be exploded under water, and at such a distance from the attacking boat as to avoid the risk of any vital injury to her. During the Russo-Turkish war one vessel was sunk by the Outrigger Torpedo, and four unsuccessful attempts were made on Turkish ships ; and it is worthy of note that only one resulted in the loss of the attacking boat, and in neither of the other attempts were any lives lost. The value of the Outrigger as a weapon of attack should by no means be esti- mated by the number of ships destroyed, as the somewhat crude arrangements Gallery] Ordnance Sec. Sub-Div. Torpedo & Electrical. 497 formerly used have been considerably improved upon, and finally this mode of attack has compelled the adoption of such precautionary measures as seriously impede the movements of exposed ships. In the Turkish war it was found necessary to completely surround the ships with chains ; while in the Franco- German war, the presence of eight Outrigger Boats at the mouth of the Elbe compelled the French blockading squadron to weigh and proceed to sea every night. The attack exercises of " Creeping " and " Sweeping " are here illustrated, and are, as a rule, precautionary measures : The Countermine Launch. Countermining is the completion of the process of attack, and means the explosion of a large number of heavily charged mine cases in the line of route to be taken by the ships of the squadron at the entrance of an enemy's harbour. The effect of these mines, simultan- eously exploded, is to render useless the enemies' mines in the neighbourhood. DEFENCE. Mining is understood in our service to include all fixed explosions, whether of Gunpowder, Guncotton, Dynamite, or other explosives. It may be as well to here recall an instance of the power of a submarine explosion. In the case of the demolition of the steamer " Foyle," which ship was perfectly sound and strongly built (she was constructed of half-inch iron plates, rivetted and supported internally by angle irons at intervals of two feet throughout her entire length), an iron case, capable of containing 340 Ibs. of powder, was loaded with 230 Ibs. of Guncotton, in the form of compressed discs a charge calculated, as nearly equivalent to 1,000 Ibs. of powder. It was fired under a head of water of 37 feet. The explosion was very different from that of powder, being much more sudden and violent ; the engines weighing 300 tons were shifted bodily out of their place, the boilers were also moved, and the ship's side stove in very nearly to the stern. A Guncotton hose, or a hose packed with dynamite, has been known to crack the side of a ship as a huge axe might cut her. Guncotton and Gunpowder charges are sometimes used alternately, as the former has the effect of shattering without displacement, \vhile the latter possesses great displacing power, with less intense local action. Sections and full size Naval mines are shown in this sub-division, with the attachment chains and gear appertaining to them. Mines are used in the service, both for the purpose of explosion at will, or in the event of a ship striking them. In the first case, the mines are often fired in numbers up to twelve, in line, simultaneously, by an observer ; in the second case, only the mine that is struck would explode. All service mines are packed with guncotton when in a "wet," and therefore comparatively safe, condition, the firing arrangement being carried out by a detonator and priming charge of " dry" guncotton. Several obsolete types of mines are also shown, notably one which was Ordnance Sec. Sub-Div. Torpedo & Electrical. [Camperdown intended to take effect on a British ship during the Crimean war. Many of this kind of infernal machine were used in the American Civil war, \\rfiich war was quite the most important, as far as the use and abuse of the Torpedo is concerned, that has hitherto occurred. The large number of vessels destroyed by Torpedo during this war, and the important part played by the mines in the defence of southern ports, turned the attention of all maritime nations to their use ; and the Torpedo has been a recognised weapon, used in one form or another in every war between civilised nations that has since taken place. It is remarkable that their moral effect has been so great that com- paratively few ships have ventured within the scope of their action. Submarine mines were used by the Danes for the defence of the Sound in 1864 ; by the Austrians for the defence of the ports of the Adriatic in 1866 ; by the Paraguayans in the defence of the Paraguay, and the Parana, against the Brazilians; and in the Franco-German and Russo-Turkish wars of 1871 72 and 1877 78 respectively, both submarine mines and torpedoes were used by the victors, and with such good effect that the fleets of their opponents were rendered almost useless. Tanks, illustrative of the method adopted in the Navy of using mines, are shown, and make a very interesting feature. The models are made to con- venient scales, which, although they must not be taken collectively as relative and proportionial throughout, are so arranged that the several methods illustrated are represented by model work of the most convenient size. The countermining tank is arranged for a line of mines such as are laid out practically ; and in order to bring the method of laying out before the public, floating models of the boats required, to a smaller scale, are shown on the sur- face of the water. The mining tank represents a mine field simply laid with "observation," " electro contact," and " mechanical " mines in their proper positions, and the bow of an ironclad will bring the idea of the passage into harbour clear to the uninitiated in torpedo work. The "Attack and Defence'' tank, as its name implies, is illustrative of the different means and arrangements for attack and defence. The full rigged out defence model is a well designed piece of work, and the attacking boats are each very carefully made to scale, the whole forming a pic- ture that clearly conveys the idea of torpedo warfare. Many amusing Electrical exhibits are on view in this Sub Division which are either composed of mechanical toys with electricity as the motive power, or are the adoption of electrical apparatus familiar in the Torpedo Schools, set up in such a way as to form a compromise between instruction and amusement.

Machinery Gallery] Electric Lighting Plant. 521 THE ELECTRIC LIGHTING PLANT. THE long narrow building adjoining the Embankment, in which the Lighting Plant is contained, is divided into two parts, viz., the Engine and Dynamo Room, and the Boiler Room. The Engine and Dynamo Room measures 68 ft. by 29 ft. , including the portions devoted to visitors. The part railed off for machinery, measures 48 ft. by 21 ft., and within this space are placed Engines and Dynamos collectively of over 1,100 h.p. The Engines, as well as the steam and exhaust pipes, and the large venti- lating fan driven by a separate engine, are supplied by Messrs. Willans & Robinson, Limited, of Thames Ditton, and the Dynamos by Messrs. Siemens Brothers & Co., Limited, of London, the combined plant being coupled together and erected in place by Messrs. Willans & Robinson. The Dynamos (except in one case) are carried upon bed-plates, which form an extension of the engine frame. The cables connecting the Dynamos with the Switch-board, and the Switch- board itself, which is placed on the west side of the Engine-room, are supplied and fixed by Messrs. Siemens Bros. & Co. The Engines are divided into two groups. The group at the south end occupies a space of 28 ft. by 21 ft., and includes three large Direct-driving Compound Engines, indicating 300 h.p. each. With the exception of a similar engine (also with a Siemens' Dynamo), which has been running for the past year in the Electric Light Station of the Corporation of Bradford, in Yorkshire, these engines are believed to be the largest direct-coupled high-speed engines in existence, and they represent the latest Central-station practice in this country ; in fact, these three engines and dynamos (with six of the boilers in the Boiler-house) in themselves represent the plant of a Lighting Station of some magnitude, able, if worked together, to supply current for 8,000 or 9,000 lights of 1 6 candle-p&wer each. The. Engines are of the kind known as Willans' Patent Central-Valve Engines (" 1. 1. 1. size ") : they are single-acting, and run at 350 revolutions per minute. All the brasses and bearings are in "constant thrust" (i.e., there is no alternation of stresses, as in double-acting engines) and the wearing surfaces are either immersed in, or are continually bathed with, oil. The entire absence of belts is a striking feature of the Engine-room, and its result in saving of space, as well as in freedom from noise, will attract the notice of the visitor accustomed to the Electric Light Departments of former Exhibitions. The present installation in fact constitutes the first public exhibition of direct-driving plant upon a large scale, although similar (but smaller) engines have been supplied for central Lighting Stations in England to the extent of 20,000 h.p. 522 Electric Lighting Plant. [Machinery The Dynamoslare of Messrs. Siemens' " H.B." pattern. At 350 revolutions per minute they each give an ordinary output of 1,500 amperes and 1 20 volts ( 1 80 kilowatts). The "commercial efficiency" is about 94 per cent, at full load. The "combined efficiency" of the Engine and Dynamo, treated as one machine, is about 86 per cent, at full load i.e. , the Electrical h.p. given off at the terminals of the machines is not less than 86 per cent, of the h.p. indicated in the cylinders of the Engine. The consumption of steam per i.h.p. per hour (the Engines at the Exhibition being non-condensing, and working at 120 Ibs. pressure) is slightly over 2olbs., corresponding with a consumption of 23^ Ibs. per Electrical h.p. per hour. Similar engines, conden- sing, working with steam at 160 Ibs. pressure, require 14 Ibs. of steam per i.h.p. per hour, or (with the same combined efficiency) a little over 16^ Ibs. per Electrical h.p. The three Engines and Dynamos forming the other group are of smaller size. That at the corner represents the combination of Willans' Central-Valve Engines with Siemens' " H.B." Dynamos, such as have been supplied in large numbers to Her_Majesty's Ships. The output of the largest size used in the Navy (as for instance in the new first-class cruisers " Blake " and " Blenheim ") is 4OoJamperes and 80 volts, at 400 revolutions per minute ; but the Dynamo now shown (with the same Engine, " G.G." size) is rather larger, and runs faster, and is able to give 400 amperes and 120 volts, the latter voltage being more useful for the purposes of the Exhibition than that used in the Navy. In other respects this set is practically a duplicate of many used in the Navy ; in fact, the 300 h.p. sets described above are merely larger examples of the same pattern. Another set in this group represents the single-acting " Open Engines " supplied to the Navy under recent specifications, by the same makers. The " Latona," and other new cruisers of the same class, are fitted with engines of this description. The Dynamo is of Messrs. Siemens' usual pattern. The remaining Engine (of the Central-Valve pattern, " G.G." size) drives one]of Messrs. Siemens' Alternating-Current Dynamos, giving 40 killowatts, for maintaining the arc light on the Lighthouse. There is also shown a central station engine-room switchboard, with all necessary controlling and regulating switches, cut-outs, meters, and measuring instruments, together with Transformer for 50,000 volts. The Boiler-house measures 60 ft. by 29 ft., and contains ten steel loco- motive boilers of the well-known make of Messrs. Davy, Paxman, & Co. , of Colchester. They supply steam to the Electric Lighting Engine, as well as to other machinery in motion in the adjoining shed. These Boilers contain more than 7,000 square feet of heating surface, and are capable of evaporating over 30,000 Ibs. of water per hour; they are self con- Gallery] Electric Lighting Plant. 523 tained, made for a working pressure of 140 Ibs. per square inch, and tested to 250 Ibs. per square inch. A steel Steam Receiver runs the entire length of the boilers, connected to each by a separate stop vah'e, so that either or any of the boilers can be immediately shut oft", if necessary. The object of the Receiver is to give dry steam to the engines, and to tarn back to the boilers any condensed steam. The Pumps for feeding the Boilers are provided by Mr. A. G. Mumford, of Colchester, and the Injectors are of Mes;rs. Grasham & Craven's manufacture. The distribution of the current from the terminals of the machines, including the wiring and actual lighting of the ent're Exhibition, is in the hands of Messrs. Siemens Bros. & Co., Limited. The feeding mains and most of the distributing mains are of Siemens' lead cased aud iron sheathed type, laid underground. The public lighting is effected by means of 140 arc lamps of new type. In various parts of the Exhibition will be shown motors worked by electrical energy. Stall No. 171, Cook Gallery.

In order not to interrupt the systematic tour of the Exhibition Galleries, the attention of the Visitor has not hitherto been drawn to the smaller buildings erected in various positions about the grounds. From this, however, it must not be inferred that the Exhibits contained m these buildings are of less importance than those which are located in the Main Galleries. On the contrary, the Exhibits in question are of the highest importance and interest, and it is on this account, in many instances, added to the fact of there being insufficient space in the Galleries, that these special structures have been erected. Mention should also be made of the fact that in each case the buildings themselves have been erected at the cost of the Exhibitors. Starting from the Machinery Gallery, the Visitor should now retrace his steps, and visit the various Kiosks as they occur en route, viz. : 5320 The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. This kiosk is designed in a characteristic Oriental style, and is of wood, brick, and plaster. The principal entrance is formed by a large verandah leading directly into the body of the pavilion, a spacious apartment containing models to a scale of ^-inch to the foot, of four of the principal ships of the " P. and O." fleet. These models are placed on tables radiating towards the centre of the room, where, on an elevated pedestal is a model of "The William Fawcett," the first ship possessed by the Company. This model, being to the same scale as that of the larger ships surrounding it, serves to illustrate the gigantic strides made in ship-building since the foundation of the Company, some fifty years since. At a distance of about eight feet from the floor, the room takes the form of an octagon, forming eight panels, four of which illustrate the great epoch of Maritime History : The I. Century " Csesarean Galleys." The X. Century (Period of warlike adventures) "The Vikings." The XV. Century (Period of discovery) " The Caravels of Columbus." The XVIII. Century (England's Naval supremacy) " ' A Three- Decker,' and Frigates." the other four being illustrative of shipping in various parts of the world, the East being shown by " Eastern Junks, and Canoes." The North by " Vessels of Discovery in the Arctic Seas." The South by " Prahus and Canoes of the Southern Archipelago." And the West by " Vessels of the '.P. and O.' fleet off Gibraltar." On the right is a long room in which is placed a map of the route from London to India, China, and Australia, to a large scale, and on which will be placed tiny models of the vessels en route, the exact position of which will, as nearly as possible, be indicated day by day. On the left is a similar room con- taining a model of the Suez Canal. At the end of these rooms are two cabins fitted exactly as on board ship. The smoking room, which is intended for one of the ships now being built for the Company, is approached from the dome, and its decorations are an entirely new Kiosks 525 5320 continued. departure : the walls and ceilings being designed by Mr. T. G. Collcutt. The mode of colouring and modelling used have not hitherto been attempted. The manufacturers are Messrs. Doulton & Co. The seats tables, and doors, are in Spanish mahogany, relieved by rich hangings and upholstery. On the walls of the different rooms are hung photo- graphs and pictures of scenes of special interest to those who have made a voyage on an eastward bound vessel. CONTENTS OF THE " P. O.'' KIOSK.

Since 1824 the Institution has granted rewards for the saving of upwards of 35,5OO lives on the Coasts of the United Kingdom. The average cost of a fully-equipped Life-Boat, with Transporting Carriage, Life-Belts, etc., is 70O. Annual Subscriptions and Donations will be thankfully received by the Secretary, Charles Dibdin, sf., at the Institution, 14, dohn Street, Adelphi, London, W.C. ; Messrs. Coutts & Co., 59, Strand, and by all the other Bankers in the United Kingdom. o ^ S w S; > ^ n "" -d fei 2 Si f a . ; aS* 5 P -* p s 155 s ^1 I -; N-5 fffl *|8 S'o I--S S> I'i* u = y i^ "s ^ = -' B -. *^ -2 n H rH 2 C *3 ^'fl =g*o *5&'^ C .^ 4) J- v Cl ^ 2 " &5 o rt "C SEE EXH/B/TS, HOWE GALLERY, Allotment No. 147.

EVERY REQUISITE FOR. SHOOTING LODGES* SUPPLIED ON THE SHORTEST NOTICE. AND ITS USES. " TTTOODITE " is an elastic and flexible material, reported upon and highly approved by Sir E. J. Reed, K.C.B., M.P., which can be made of varying degrees of elasticity and hardness, adapted to the various purposes for which it is required. The material is now being rapidily utilised as a superior substitute for RUBBER, LEATHER, ASBESTOS, and other substances, and it will, from its peculiar and valuable properties, supply a long-felt want in every branch of inechanical industry. Cubes for protecting ships' sides, buffer surface 1 -, Voats, Xc. " WOOdite" sponge for anti-torpedo cables and buoyancy purposes ; also " Woodite" buoyancy filling for watertight compartments, about half the weight of cork, reported on and recommended by Sir Nathaniel Barnaby, K.C.B., and F. K. Barnes, Esq. (see Lord Brassej-'s "Naval Annual" for 1889). IT is CLAIMED FOR "Woodite" that, when in the form of sheeting or special kinds of valves, washers, ram rings, &c., being of a very tough and strong nature, it will not stretch or " give," nor become sticky or soft under heat, steam, or pressure ; and that it will also withstand the action of " CRANK'S OIL," hot grease, and all other lubricants ; and is not affected by bilge water, acids, ammoniacal liquor from Gas Works, or by refuse from Oil Refineries, Distilleries, or Tanneries ; thus rendering it specially serviceable in all cases where these destructive elements come into operation. Used in all the principal Government Arsenals, Dockyards, Railways, and Engineering Firms in all parts of the world. PRICE LISTS AND REPORTS ON APPLICATION.

THERE IS NO GEAR WHICH AFFORDS SUCH CERTAINTY OF SIMULTANEOUS RELEASE. APPROVED by the BOARD OF TRADE under their NEW RULES. Prices for Boats ap to 22 ft .JB4 s. The gear consists of a bar fitted preferably over the thwarts, and bent at each end in the shape f a hook. It will be seen that the release is instantaneously and simultaneously effected on simply turning the bar by means of the lever ; both hooks being pointed upwards, the rings attached to the lower davit blocks fly free. By this apparatus a boat can be more easily released before she is water-borne than by any other method, while, at the discretion of these in charge, the attachment may remain perfectly secure until after she is afloat. The apparatus may, however, be arranged to release a boat either before she is water- borne or not, according to the wishes of the purchaser. When re-attachmert is desired, the ring is rushed against the lower jaw, which yields to- admitjit, and falls backlnto position again by its own weight. Tke attachment is then complete.
