The battery of the PORTSMOUTH commands the town of Yerba Buena.

This fort, from its favourable situation, protects the harbour and outer anchorage, as well as commands the town.

There was no sign of the city, but we could barely discern an old fortress on the lofty cliff which commands the town.

Enniscorthy Castle, which commands the town, was taken from Mr. Henry Roche, J.P. All food and arms and vehicles throughout the town were commandeered.

Standing on a naked and calcareous hill, it commands the town, and has a very picturesque effect when viewed from a vessel entering the port.
