"The cost of the Tnscnmbia will be about #250, 000. Her magazines are provided with an apparatus by which they can be completely flooded in the short space of one minute. A bulwark of iron, loop-holed, for musketry, is placed around her guards. Her speed will be about twelve miles an hour against the current. She will he manned by 150 marines. Her custom-house measurement is 980 tons. ' 1 It must not, however, be thought that these two boats represent nearly all the Western iron-clads. They are... of many different forms, and vary greatly in their armament and general efficiency. Many of them are expensive and powerful vessels. Some of those lately constructed have turrets; and the form of these has been varied, in order to try experiments which might settle important questions of construction. Their armament, in general, is xevy heavy — nearly all of them carrying one or more guns oPVgrcater calibre than can be found on the largest French and English frigates. Eleven-inch smooth-bores and 200-pounder rifles are common guns on board the larger class of the river iron- clad gunboats.
