iach burner TO an enemy's ship
without mourning the least danger To
those who manage them. Large
numbers of explosive balls have been
embarked on board the English fleets,
Of such nature as invariably to ex-
pInde whenever they strike the side
of an enemy's ship, scattering on ev-
cry side devastation, death and
flames. Experiments are also being
made with an asphy xiating ball,
which does not kill, but paraiySes
an entire creso for sereral hours, or
until they are made prisoners.
Two small steamboats, are build
ing, designed to carry each Two enor-
nous Paixhan guns. These vessels
are built in the strongest manner,
with oaken walls near six feet thick
covered with maltrass of cotton
one and half feet in thickness, aud
this again covered with sheeting Of
iron and lead. The roof or upper
deck is covered in the same way, so
as TO allow the bombs Of the enemy
to glance into the sea without dam
age. They are designed to be bull
let proof, and bomb proof. These
ships are TO be sent at the proper
time into the midst of the enemy's
fleet, where they will attack the YES
sells around them, fore and aft, with
bombs thrown between wind and
water, at the same time sprinkling
them with showers of Greek fire.
II is believed that one of these little
vessels, operated by the labors of a
few determined men, might, under
favorable circumstances, destroy an
entire fleet Of ships.
The English fleet is also largely
provided with balloons, intended TO
carry inhammable materials to scat
ter over towns, villages and fleets,
when the wind favors such opera
tons: and il is said that another in
vention, whose results will be still
more terrible than any of the above,
but of which the construction has
not yel been made known, is also a.
bout to be sent out To destroy the
Russians.

FRoe AND RAT.-A desperate en-
counter took place between a frog
aud rat, at brook near the sIaugh-
ter-house of Uriah Wiggin, in this
town-a raj came down TO the brook
to drink, and discovering frog" with
force and arms" made an attack up
on him, by making firm grasp with
his teeth; no sooner did the rat
make his bold, than the frog plunged
into the water, dragging his antago-
mist with him. where he remained
until the rat was compelled to let go,
and made for dry land, closely pur-
sued by the frog. As soon as tho
frog appeared above water he was
agau attacked by the rat, aad sec
ond time the latter became the sub
ject for cold water bathing. This
feat was several times performed, un-
al the rat, from exhaustion aud drown
ing, fell a prey. After the frog be-
came assured that his antagonist was
dead, he seated himself upon his car
cas-, with all the complaisance imag-
Unable, where he remained for half
an hour, exuIting over his hard won
victory.-Dorer Gazette.

The Improved Art of War.

Among the many arts which the
conceptions of genius are constantly
combining TO perfect aud deveIope,
is the art of war. Every succeeding
generation seems to introduce among
us still more powerful aud efficient
agencies for accomplishing the de-
struction of our fellow ncn. A cor
respondent of The Cincinnati Gazette,
writing from England, gives an inter
esling description of few of the
warl,ke engines which il is supposed
will contribute materially to the sue
cessiul termination OF hosi,li,ies in
the great European struggle which is
probably about to occur.
One of the most terrible of these
machines, he says, is Wagner's float
i z gun--which is simply a long con
greve gun, dc signed to be propelled
along the surface Of the water in a
straight line, on The principle of the
rocket, until it strikes the vessel at
which il was directed, when it ,hrusis
into its sides its iron head, containing
two pounds of Illuminating powder of
mercury. When fire reaches this
reservoir, the powder explodes, blow
ing hole in the vessel ten or twelve
feet in diameter-so large that il can
not be closed up by any ordinary
method. This machine, says the
wfiler, has been a long time maiur-
ing in the Woolwich arsenals, and is
now completed, and ready to go forth
on its mission Of destruction, Il can
be made available at a distance Ear
beyond the reach Of any other gun,
and il is Thought will be Of service in
attacking the Russian fleets when an
chored under the unapproachable
fortresses Of Sebastopol and Cron-
stadt.

also says that submarine boats have

A Modern Joan of Arc.

A curious story is told at this mo-
ment, of second Joan Of Arc, who
has appeared in the Turkish army.
A girl named Cara, descendant of
Soliman Pacha, formerly Governor
Of Apana, on her way To Constanii-
noble. She marched at the head of
a corps Of regular cavalry; many
persons tried TO persuade her to ADAM
don the strange enterprise but moth
ing shook her courage or resolution to
combat the enemies of her country.
Some persons tho't To inlimidate her
b, saving that if she was determined
TO remain IN the army sho must give
a trial Of her skill by an assault al arms.
The Governor Of Adana, who was
informed Of the act, ordered that the
young girl should be brought before
him, aud he asked her if she still
persisted in her resolutions. She res
pended ia the affirmative, and added
that she would engage willingly in
the trial at arms to which they had
said she must submit, provided they
would give her for an adversary the
harvest and most vigorous of the q
900 cavaliers of which the detach-
ment was composed. The comba,
took place Immediately, and after a
contest of some mineuies, the cava-
lier chosen for her adversary was dis
armed by the young girl and declar-
ed vanquished. The Governor or
dered that she should be regularly
enrolled, counted her down one thou
sand five hundred piast e's, (S75) and
gave the rank of Office to her brother
who served in an inferior grade.-
