THE RESULTS OF THE CAMPAIGN.

! (From the Edinburgh Review for Ocieber, 1855.) The War from the landing at Gallipoli to the Death of Lord ? r > , . we Raglan. By W.il. Russert. Correepondent of the Times. Loudoa : 1350. (Continusd fronPour last.)

It-h2s been frequently said, however, that the war was con- |

ucted in an old-fashioned way; that our generals were the} heroes of i812 and I815; that our artillery might have been! used at the siece of Namur or feured on Uncle Toby's bowline green; and that military sci nee had not k pt pace with eivil engineering. No doubt these allegations wer partly true, be- cause there had been an immense demand of late vears for the application of the intellect in this cor atry to civil rather than to militiry purposes. Our generals were elderly men, becaus¢ they have lived through a long peace; but so, with few ex- cepiions, are these of our a: tagonist and of our allie and our means of action were not af first adapted to the magnitude of our object. But if this were our starting point, we confi-

}

dlently affirm that within six months from the commencement of these operations, we had advanced with enormous and in-| credible rapidity beyond it, and that the entire history of war- fare docs not afford any instance of such important changes and such extraordinary novelties in the art of war. The truth

. is. that far from carrying on thes: operations in an old fash-

ioned way, the novelty and multi; licity of the means placed at the disp sal of the generals was so great, that the minds of those who were engaged in directing these great works could I le bans on wrath: +1 ssi sueae a hike af ; ce fh Jar iy Keep pac With tacw ona wocn Ww hav bbided is Has not been from any want of such material resources as the in- genuity or resolution of the country could supply, but from the deticiency of a high standard of iateliectual capacity and of professional education in the army. The intimate union of the naval and military services was new, fer it was the first | time that two vast armies, operating on a coast. bad within sight, and under their command, a large steam fleet to supply all their wants, and to await their orders. A great part of the seience of balistics as exemplified by this extraordinary siez? was new to the engineers, for never before was guns of such calibro, or projectiles of such elaborate construction, used

in war; and we attempted to demonstrate ; i

last number, that the expedients resorted to both by the de- fenes and by the attack, were practical discoveries in tie art of fortitications. We have it on high authority that the French arsenals alone have sent about a million shot and shell to the East since the opening of the war, and Marshal Pelissier states that 1,600,000 rounds of amununition have been expr nd- ed in the siege ; whereas the largest amount of ordnance stores ¢ever consumed before amounted at the siege of Antwerp to ubout 65.000 rounds, Phe. weight of the siege trains was equatiy novel and astonishing. The old 24-pounders were silenced and discarded as popguns, and the success of the siege was mainly due to the introduction of a weight of metal never seen before. ‘To work guns of such dimensions in lines of such surprising extent, mechanical ingenuity was again applied ; | for nothing less than a flect of transports and a railroad could ave enahied the artillery tn heine . ois have enabied the artillery to bring up the siege trains and the

t length in our

tons of inctal to be hurled against the works of Sebastopol. | Lastly, to organize the application and the supply of these ex- | traordinary means of action, an instantaneous communication |

was established between the camp and the seat of Government 3,000 miles off. Of course these devices were not all prepared

beforehand, and the torpor of official routine and professional | ! }

traditions was overtaken by the vivid inventive genius and the

enthusiastic interest of the nation. But these expedients arose | one after another pro re nata; and when it is considered that |

barely six months had elapsed from the sailing of the expedi- |

tion to the momert when our full resources were in eperation, and that another six months exhausted the eecmaulated resis- tance of the Russians and compelled them to retreat, we ven- ture to affirm that hereafter men wi.l wonder, not at the protracted duration of the siege, but at the rapidity with Wahich it was brought to a glorious termination.

These have proved to be the true elements of victory to the |

Western Powers. They had not at their command the innu- merable legions of the Russian armies, for their military forces were on a peace establisiiment. They had not accumulated stores of war at their disposal, which it appears to have been the constant object of Alexander and of Nicholas to collect during a period of forty years, for the eventual subjegation of the East. But the Western Powers brought into action the superior energy and civilization of Europe; and there can hardly be a more vivid picture of the contrast between these antagonists than the railway train hissing from Balaklava to the camp, with the mighty stores of the besiegers, and the

The military results of the siege of Sebastopol, however great they may be, are of secondary interest to its political | consequences, The maritime preponderance of Russia in the’

slack Seags for a long period destroyed: the fortress from | which an embassy or an expedition perpetually threatened the | shores of the Bospherus is dismantled; but above all, England and France have shown the world that gigantic as) this enterprise undoubtedly was, they had aot overrated their

own strength in engaging in it. To haye failed in such an | undertaking was impossible, for i¢ would have dimmed the

glory of the lmperial Eagles of France, and lowered the renown

and influence of Britain. There was, no doubt, a moment

when the disappointment of the premature hopes raised after

the battle of the Alma, and the excessive hardships endured by | the allied armies, induced the neutral states ef the Continent

to form an erroneous estimate of our strength and of our de-

termination. The winter campaign, the impassioned appeals

of the press to the sympathy of the public, the partial disso-

lution of the British Cabinet, the angry and dissatisfied atti-

tude which the House of Commons retained during the session, | were all construed on the Continent as proofs of the decline of | our real power and the hopeless confusion of our political in-! stitutions. The world had forgotten that under a free go-. vernment it is easier to heal wounds than to hide them; and

general clection of that year, in which the hope is confidently

expressed, that the people would not return a majority prepared to carry out Responsible Government as then and now undege stood.
