That for many years past he has directed his aten-

and after employing much labor, and at bis pri-

very high commentator.
Having invented mode Of constructing wrought

ob!ong or coucal shot and sels, which has met the
appreciation OF many scientific and talented officers,
and is nov anxious that the Government shall profit
by the discovery, especially as our Notifications and
public ships win require very large number Of can
non which, il is understood, will be ordered imme-

proycments in arms for these purposes point TO much
larger cannon than those heretofore made, particular

!, The irregular appearance Of the Army and Navy
Chronicle has been the most serious impedmcn to its
success. That irregularity be obyiated for the
future by very simple plsn which easy of accom-
pshment and will require but little exertion on the
part Of its friends.
The editor has hand hundred complete sets for
the years 1885, I, 3 and g, (exceptng the month of
October, 1883, not yet pnted which he offers at hair
price, ten dollars for the four years II these can be
disposed Of, it will produce the of one thousand
dollars, which with current subscriptions will ensure
the future Punctual appearance Of the Chronicle.
There are surely hundred officers in the army and
navy, without counting upon individuals out of the SER
vice, public Libraries and other Institutions who would
be glad to possess the only authentic and permanent re-
cord of military and naval events published in this
country. t&.
If there be any who wish to secure set but whose
stations are remote uncertain that they cannot
conveniently receive and take of it, they can re-
init the money and the set will be laid asde subject to
order at any moment
Not week elapses without applications for missing
numbers to complete fes and many subscribers have
declared that they would not part with theirs on any
terms, II they could not be replaced. July l6
