Excerpt: ...crossed to England, where she was seized and handed over to the North. In all, the Confederate commerce-destroyers and privateers captured 261 vessels. Almost all these were sailing vessels, indeed the mail vessels, Ariel and Electric Spark were the only steamers taken on the high seas. The loss which fell upon the United States was heavy, but it was not so heavy as it would have been had the Confederates been successful in their attempt at secession, as the bonds of ransom were only to be paid in the event of the independence of the Southern States being acknowledged. Yet these losses, such as they were, ruined American shipping. It had recovered from the blows we dealt it in the war of 1812, and was once more competing with us. The Civil War rid us of the competition. In 1864 Mr. Milner Gibson, speaking at Ashton-under-Lyne, remarked that in 1863 the clearances of British ships from English ports had increased by fourteen million tons, whilst there had been a decrease in American ships engaged in trade with England, amounting to 46 or 47 per cent. It may be said that this decrease was partly due to the universal adoption of iron ships propelled by steam, in which the United States lagged behind, partly to the large number of steamers purchased by the Northerners for war uses, and so taken from trade. Both these causes may have contributed in some degree to the diminution, but the real causa causans of the decline was the action of the Confederate cruisers. On every sea American shipping disappeared, or could only steal to its destination by devious routes. At Singapore Semmes found twenty American ships laid up, and there were numerous transfers of vessels in addition. As free ships make free goods by the Treaty of Paris, whilst free or...

The reflecting naval world understands in what singular uncertainty all naval problems are at present involved in the apprehensions of men. The development of the last twenty-five or thirty years has been, not merely extensive and rapid, but continuous and incessant. It has not consisted in a very few sharply defined and sudden changes, to which have succeeded intervals of tranquillity, allowing men's minds to adjust themselves to the new conditions. Great as the change is, when we contrast the conditions at the opening of the period named with those that now obtain, it has been in the strictest sense gradual. It has not been by bounds, but by a process resembling rather a steady upward progress along a very steep incline. It is true that in this ascent, if it shall so be called, we have had to pass marked features which aid to distinguish one stage from another, and can note in the retrospect certain events which may serve as landmarks, or milestones, to measure our progress; but still, upon the whole, phase has succeeded phase with a degree of continuity, blending one with the other, so as to make it difficult to say that this year, or that year, definitely marked a change of system. At the end we find we have undergone a revolution; but it has been by the gradual and, in one sense, supportable, process of reform. But, while this graduality of change has spared us the shock, which is caused by a sudden wrench, that reverses and overturns in an instant the ordered schemes of our lives, our professional thought and methods, it has, on the other hand, entailed a constant, severe, and wearying strain of watchfulness and suspense, which, in the long run tells, perhaps, as injuriously upon the self-possession and the judgment....
