. What then? Must Richmond fall? Might we not have other formidable means in reserve? How would fire rafts answer as an additional security? Let them he constructed at the proper points, of the right material and of sufficient strength, and then tied together so as to sweep the channel. Filled with combustibles, they would prove too formidable for the Yankee gunboats, even when clad in steel; for we presume that our enemies are as valnerable to fire and smoke as other men. No one means should be implicitly relied on for defence, while others may be added that in certain contingencies might prove of incalculable services. Armed at all points, we may safely defy our enemies; a single loop-hole left undefended, and he may get the advantage of us.
