NEW GUs-LocK.-Wm. Henry, Jr., Wooster, Ohio
has sent us two specimens Of Cherbies Patent Gun
Lock patented last August, and distinguished
from the locks hitherto current by simplicity OF con-
structan, containing but little over half so many
pieces as the common lock- Mr.. III. states that, not
witbstanding the acknowledged excellence Of Cote
and perhaps other American Locks, we import Locks
to the value OF $500 900 annually. Any improvement
that will arrest or greatly diminish this importation
will be National benefit; wherefore we commend
the new lock to the attention Of Gun-mskers. Its
claimed to be not only simpler and cheaper but lar
more durable and less liable TO injury that the COM
mon lock.

Paper. This seems 10 excellent idea. Those
bucks are most abundant throughout the country,

substance capable of being reduced to pulp. Clean
busks could probably be delivered in unlimited guam
