M< ND EVIiNING, Jf'l.Y 18, HOW SPAIN LOsT GIBRALTAR Gibraltar was taken by the Eoglisfa iu 17u4, during the war of the Spaoisl. succession, a war which was provoked by the aggressive policy of Franco in endeavoring to place a monarch of tne French fannly upon tne Spanish tbione and thus consolidate the two kinudotus into one. The fortrts* was then cap? tured, almost by surpri.-?, though tb? Spaniards and French, appreciating I he strategic value of the place, made de - perate efforts to recover it, but were n - pulsed at every point. Between th< date of its capture- and 177!', repeaed eflorts were made by Sp&iu to recover the fortrts-, and in the Utter year tin greates armameut that was ever brought to bear upon a besieged plan lay before Gibraltar. The sit u ? lasted, oil and on, for many mon'bs The in? venting force comprised 12,000 troops of France, over twice as mat y ot the be>t infantry of Spain, aud the tleet consist ed ot 47 sbips, all three-deckers, 10 great floating batteries, esteemed in vincible, carrying 'ill' gans; inr timer able frigates, bomn-ketcnes, cutter-, gun and mortar boats. For weeks together over 6,000 shells a day were thrown in J to the town and repeated att< uipts were made to storm the works, but the lulle garrison of only 7,000 men repelled every assault and hiiHily succeeded in b ating oil the allied fl et The block & e began June 21, 177'J, and lasted j I itil February, 17:?."J, when the gnrri- j i a was fioally relieved by the arrival c . a British lhet and army, Since that t Tie the fortifications of Gibraltar have iue-n so iruprov d a^d increased that it i- regarded th<- strongest fortress in tb< world. The British government main t.iius there a garrison of from 5,000 to 10.000 men, with provisions for six months, and it is said the supply oi military material is BUfficienl to enable the fortress to stand a siege of indefinite length.
