THE PILOT-HOUSB AND ANCHOR. The pilot is protected by a shot-proof pilot- house, which alone hs 22,000 The house stands fivefeet above the level of the deck. The anchor is suspended from a circu- iar well, open at the bottom, situated in the extreme bow of the u} vessel, and connected with the capstan in the bow of the lower one. An arrangement is also provided for taking soundings below the water line. THE TURRET. The turret spoken of above is for the pro- tection of the men while working the guns; in fact, no one is @: or seen by the enemy. The turret revolves, and consists, first, of a tolled plate iron skeleton, one inch thick, to which is riveted two thicknesses, of one inch each, of rolled iron plates. Outside of these riveted plates are six thicknesses, of one inch each, of rolled plates bolted firmly to two thickngeses with screw bolts, hi within, so that if in action the enemy's should loosen any of the plates they oan easily be refastened. The seams are vertical, and these break joints with each other, conse- uently no shot can strike the seam of more than one thickness. The top is cevered with a boom-proof roof, placed six inches down withia the turret, perforated with holes. In addition to the above, the gunners are pro- tected by a shield within the turret of one and a half inch thickness. FOR WHAT THE MONITOR WAS INTENDED. The Ericsson battery was not intended for an ordinary cruiser, but for the defence of our harbors and coast, and for operations such as those in which she has just achieved such a signal success. She is enabled to carry eight days’ fuel, and thus can proceed easily from rt to port along our seaboard. Provisions br three months can be stowed i her, and acondensing apparatus for supply g fresh = to the officers and crew is fitted up on board. THE LAST TRIAL TRIP OF THE MONITOR AND ITS RESULTS. On the 3d inst. the Monitor went on a trial trip down the about five miles beyond Fort Lafaye' er steering qualities were found to be at could be desired. The guns were fired to test the question which had been mooted, of whether the con- cussion within the turret would not be so great as to injure poets the ears of the men. First, a blank cartridge was fired with the hatches in the roof open. Then a charge of canister, weighing 135 pounds, with 15 pounds of powder, with the hatches still open and finally the same charge with the hatches el , as they will be under the fire of the enemy. It was found thgt in every case the concussion in Mist ca f the interior of the turret was considerably less than when stand- ing near such a gun fired in the open air. The sailors stationed at the guns, and who expected to handle them shortly ainst the enemy, all expressed themselves delighted at the success of the trial. The of the vessel by the ship log was six and one-quarter knots, the engines making sixty-five revolutions. HER AMMUNITION. At the Novelty Iron Works a quantity of solid it iron shot was forged for the Monitor, each one weighing 187 pounds. These were intended for forating and sinking fron-olad vessels of the enemy whose sides are the ordinary height above the water line. Besides these she carries a sens of cast- iron shots weighing 175 pounds each, and one hundred of shells, in weight 155 pounds each. “before the batteries of the enemy” should e her capable of all that wes daimbd by fer ee Most opportunely has she ar- rived to check the arrogance of rebels, and to drive back, in a disabled condition, their boasted master batteries, and, in the language of a dispatch from the Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Captain Fox, “ she stood ready last night to meet anything that floats, wholly un- red. a republi:h the following des>ription of the Monitor, which will now be perused with re- newed interest: The keel of the battery was laid on the 22d of October last, and the w rk of construction has since been actively prosecuted under the evel superintendence of Capt. Ericsson. contractors were John A. G: id, John F. Winslow, and C. 8. Bushnell. The bull of the battery was built by Thomas F. Roland at the Continental Works in Greenpoint, Long Island; the engines at the Delamater Works; the funnel at the Novelty Works; the turret engines and gun carriages at Messrs. Clute Brothers’ factory in Schenectady. ‘The vessel is sh: at both ends, and con- sists of a lower and upper hull; the sides of the former inclining at an angle of fifty-one degrees, and coming to a point at each end at an ef cighty degrees. The lower hull is iron-plated. @ upper section is five feet high, with perpendicular sides, and the same sharp ends, and is forty-one feet and four inches wide, jutting over the lower bull three feet and seven inches on each side. The sides of this upper section are a little over three feet in kness. First, there is an inner = of inch iron, and upon this a seo- of white timber thirty inches thick, snd covered with an armor six inches thick formed of six one-inch iron plates lapped and firmly riveted together. : The deck or of the battery is even with the top of the hull, and is covered with two thicknesses of inch plate iron, fastened to eight- ineh oak plank ten-inch oak timber, but twenty-six inches apart. There is no railing or other obstruction on the tep of the battery, except a round tower or turret, twenty fget in diameter and nine feet high, and eight inches thick, made of plate iron. The turret has two portholes, each two feet in diameter, for two eleven-inch columbiads, and is also pierced for musketry. The turret is of immense weight, but made to revolve by machinery from be- low, so as to bring the guns in any desired range, and to remove the ports from the ene- my’s guns while loading. To support, protect and give efficiency to this turret is the whole ebject of the battery, although its immense weight and power would sink any vessel with which it should come in contact. ‘The battery is steered from the front, the wheelhouse standing before the turret. The wheelhouse is strongly built of iron, and can be lowered into the hold like a bale of dry . Wh lowered, the top, which is part of a joints are water-tight. The house will be pierced for sharpshooters. The ends of the upper vesse! projecting over the hull, fore and abaft, serve as a protection to the propeller, rudder and anchor.

The anchor is in front, and is short but very heavy. It is hoisted by a chain running into the hold, up intos fitted for it, outaide of the lower ball, but within the impregnable walls of the hull. The entrance to the hold is by small hatchways, which when closed form a part of the deck and are equally secure.

Neo Mere English er French Rubbish, made to sell, but not te keep time. Why shou'd an American buy a foreign Wateb, when he oan get a better and cheaper one at home? Why should an American needlessly enrich foreign Watch manufactures at the expense of our own artisans? Why should an American senc gold to England and France, our covert but bitter enemies, when gold 1s so much needed at home? Why should an American buy an imported Watch, which, in nine cases out of ten, will cost more to keep in order for one year, than its origi- nal price,and which was never intended to keep time under any ciroumstances ? Why should Americans not patronize more generally American manufactures, and thus eman- cipate themeclves from the thraldom of English capital, Frenoh fashions,and Continental gew- gawe? The Amerioan Watoh Company’s Watches are partioularly adapted for soldiers’ use, being most substantially made, and not liable to get outof order, either in marching, riding, or fighting. Sold by M.
