New FREARM New York CORES.
pondent Of the Providence Tribune gives an
account 81 another tlre.arm, which, IT rs
thought, will eclipse the Sharprlile. Il has
hecn patented byJ. W. Past. q New York

at is a repeating rife, which can be Load
I'd and discharged thirty times in minute.
Il is very light and convenient, has but one
,lscharsing barrel. and does not revolve.
Under The barrel, in place Of the ranrod IN
other guns, is a tube which receives thirty
acorn. shaped, water. proof balls, each cons
tanning within itself powder and percussion
Tor propulsion. The act Of cooking the piece
places ball in the breech, and the whole
thirty may be discharged in the most rapid
succession. Alta late trial the gun was dls
charged ten times in ten seconds. The bill
is shaped like that Of the Mimic rifle, and the
sun itself Is calculated az well for long dis
lanccs as rapid firing. With the use Of this
gun, new era will open upon the hunters Of
the western prarrs. lit has been enjoy ment
TO follow buffalo Tor whole day to get a
second shot at him. how bewiiderng must be
the excitement of shooting thirty oul ola herd
before they have time to stir out Of their
tracks. The gun has been patented IN Eng.
land and France, aud both Governments have
ordered them TO BE- put on trial.

THE CONTRAST.

The anti american journals are much IN
the habit Of appealing to the great statesmen
ol the mast to sustaia them IN their crusade
AGAINST Americans. But they show US aath-
ing from the writings of those great men to
,indieate the course they pursue. On the 9TH

from their works to show taat the course iol-
lowed by Us is the nnIy one which they al,
