To the Editor of the Union:

A Wonderful Improvement n rire-Arms.
Having Witnessed few evenings SINCE through the
courtesy Of Colonel T. w Porter, of Tennessee trial OF
his newly nvented nfoadi~g gur, for the patent OF
which, me, there is application at this time
before the Commissioner, have thought 1t might be
undressing the general reader, and but due Colonel
p make mention Of through tho medium OF the
press.
upon its simplicity OF construction and though ii would
be difficult for better versed in mechanism than myself
to give anything like satisfactory detail OF the consruc.
and principle upon which 1t works, its simplicity is
evident to observer to be most easily compe-
hended
The chief mcrt OF this invention is the rapldy with
which IL fires, being capable OF dscharging itself forty
in minute and its entire adj rtatou all kinds OF
weather, being constructed be entirely FREQ from
the effects of water, under all circumstances. Though
great these by the only peculiar advanta
of Colonel Porters gun The barrel l. upon principle
different from any have seen, though will not
dertahe say there others similarly constructed
Its construction il OF such nature oppose more than
usual resistance to the expansion OF the powder Hence u
shoots with Increased force, as conceive, any
other gun yet patented In fine conceive it to embrace
al the advantages Of the various precedent improvements
combined with those have mentioned and, ms
sary consequence, must the public become familiar
with IT, supersede all OF the various firearms In
The gun which the inventor exhibited bis pa ssses
through Washington was beautifully wrought rifle but
tho Improvement is evidently applicable every other
class of arms.
As an Of destruction in time war would
certainly prove efeotus weapon by far than any
thing Of the kind in As means of safety in
pioneer life, will undoubtedly supesede all other guns
For sportsmen, its advantages are the same.
Colonel Porter informs that he has made extensive
arrangements for their manpfsctnr which will be com
menced Immediately upon the issuing Of hi, psent when
the interested public will have opportunity Of testing the
utility Of his invention for themselves.
