Lope, so, too, Is the past, ard what | is more,*anyone who cares fo turn to | the pages of history can learn' the fullest details without fear of inter- vention from the censor. Many of us are apt to believe that the Boer War was the only qne which had its dark days, but that is anly because most of us remember them, Yet the campaign to which we look back with the greitest pride, that which finally ended with the Basle of Waterloo, had darker days than any we have known jn this war, Wel- lington and Nelson carried us finally to victory, but they did it almost in spite of ourselves, and most of the "regrettable incidents" of this war had counterparts a hundred years ago. The defeat of Napoleon was not, as we are too inclined to think, the result of a series of brilliant campaigns, ending in the triumph of Waterloo. Pitt said, "We have saved ourselves by our exertions, and shall save Europe by our example." It was not an example of efficiency; It | was an example of bulldeg tenacity. For six years we hung on to Napol- eon In Spain and Portugal, while he overran the rest of Europe. We had defeats as well as victories, twice Hur armies were within an ace of being | driven into the sea; still we hung on, | and finally' the rest of Europe, seeing that Napoleon was "not invincible, came back to the task of crushing bim Our great man--the Duke of Wel- lington--insisted that we should per- severe when the people, and even the Government of the day, were inclin- ed to give up. Those who thought the task hopeless had been discour- aged by one failure after another. They could point to a Dardanellas expedition more disastrous than ours. In February, 1807, a squadron of ships under Admiral Duckworth was dispatched with orders to force the Dardanelles, appear before Constan- tinople, and demand the surrender of the Turkish fleet. The Turks ne- potiated for a week, but in the mean- time, under French engineers, im- proved and extended the fortifica- tions to such an extent that Admiral Duckworth. found himself in a daa- gerous position, and was forced to retire with considerable loss. That failure was to be compensated for by landing British troops at Alexandria, | but here again the enemy was under- rated and a bumiliating evacuation followed. The Duke of Wellington's campaign in the Peninsula was han- dicapped through the home Govern- ment using for another purpose rein- forcements which he badly needed. Forty thousand fine troops were the island of Walcheren, The' eren expedition failed to take Ant- werp, and was so wasted by disease that a mere skeleton of the Army re- turned to En:land, - A hundred years ago our navy was supreme as it is now. The Battle of Trafalgar, fought when Napolecn was hardly atthe height of his pow- er, shattered the French navy for good. But Naraleon, like our arch- enemy to-day, hoped to destroy Eng- land's sea power by other means. His plan, how-:ver, did not involve tho wholesale slaughter of non-combat- ants. He was then master of prac- tically all the sea coast of Europe, except Spain and Portugal, and was looked on as an all vietorious leader, In 1806, by the famous Decrees of Berlin, he declared the British Isles to be in a state of blockade. He had no U boats to enforce his will, but his decrees made it a crime to have any intercourse with Great Britain, All British subjects found in acy country in alliancé with France were to be made prisoners, and every sr- ticle of British produce or manufac- ture was to be confiscatéd. To en- force this plan, which Napoleon call- ed the "Continental System," all the sea coasts were to be carefully pa trolled by Customs officers. But ple, and especially on his allies. Britain was then the only great man- ufacturing country in the world, and they had been in the habit of getting from ber a t and one neces- sary commodities. They would not give them up readily, and systematic smuggling began. Articles were especially imported from Bitaln into Spain and Portu- gal, and smuggled thence across ste French frontier. Napoleon saw that domination the "block- ade" was effective, and he began tne Peni War. i ed ftugal was our old ally. 3 landed troops there, and pe- Sih the war ar which ended in Na- EE ren whole of Europe against it } | sent under an incompetent command, er to the Netherlands and lan ageen | decrees told heavily on his own poo! dicted for first degree murder.
