• (NEAR ST. GEORGE'S CHURCH).

J. B. and S. having for many years past made it their study (regardless of labour and expense) to produce such improve-
Wients in firearms as shall combine Safety, Simplicity, and Quickness of Fire, and for which improvements Royal Letters Patent
Were granted to them in 18:57, 1844, 1851, 1852, 1853, and 1855. J. B. and S. beg to request that Sportsmen, before purchasing
Gans for the approLchh.g Season, will favour them with a visit, to inspect their productions, which for workmanship, finish,
and style cannot be excelled.

J. B, and S. in particular beg to call the attention of the sporting world to their Central Fire Gun, which, after ten
Years' trial, proves itself to be one of the greatest improvements of the age. Amongst the many of its advantages may be
Enumerated the following, viz. :—The nipples are so protected and sheltered by the locleplates overhanging them that a
misfire is hext to impossible. Less neeGit, whilst greater force is obtained by the flame of the cap being driven direct Into the
body or centre of the powder. Lastly, SAFETY. The cocks or hammers of ordinary guns have too frequently been caught
by fences, briars, &c., and accidents of a fatal kind resulted ; this is entirely obviated in the Central Fire Gan, on account
Of the position or formation of the cocks or hammers ; an inspection will convince• any one of this important fact. It is
adraitted on all hands that Safety is the great desideratum in the sports of the field ; this the Central Fire Gun possesses
to an eminent degree.
J. B. AND S.'s BsEEcn-LoAnnio ErFLE.—At a recent trial at Bird field Barracks in the presence of the Officers stationed
there, they pronounced it to be the simplest and most efficient Breech Loader ever invented, it being LOADED, CAPPED, and
DIscnAEGED 25 times in .1i minutes. Also, DOVBLE-BAItI%ELED SnoT Gum, on the Breech-Loading principle.
