,,ocrl;a,tes tending to make this less Objectionable
H.. MOS, of the previous efforts in this direction one
81 b;cb is the conca rather than the plane form of
,hs Joint, between the revolving part and the barrel
The forward extremity of each charge-chamber is
ousrded bys conical lip, and the chambered part is
necessarily drawn back, by suitable mechanism suf
c;spt TO clear these before the revolving motion is
commenced. This forward and backward motion is

mace before it arrives opposite the barrel ready to be
discharged The piece is capable OF carrying twenty
eight charges six Of which are in the revolving por-
t;on and twenty-five in long tube under the barrel
whence they are forced into the revolving portion as
fast as the chambers therein are presented empty
The most decided novelty, however, which we find
among the very recent patents in this hne Is an effort
nv g. Buckle and Z. Dorsch of Munroe, Mich to
combine the advantages of the shotgun, or OF the
"blunderbuss. with the accuracy of the rife. Sew.
oral balls of suitable forn are fitted, side by side,

with paper between the balls to prevent their coher-
ing when discharged. The Scientific american afrms
TINT balls thus fitted in smooth bore will spread very
sliehty so as to fill circle two feet six inches in
diameter at the distance Of three hundred PAGES, and
by giving the grooves twist in the usual manner, the
balls will scatter less This ARM if otherwise rs con-
yenient az the ordinary rifles, must be valuable
acquisition for poor marksmen as the chance Of hitting
the game would be very largely increased 1t is in
tended to sight the piece for one ball, so that in the
hands of skilful man, one will hit the mark, while
the remainder will sprinkle around it.
SUBMARINE TELEGRArH TO NAsrucKET.-An ex-

cable to Nantucket. The wire is loaded every twen-

whole was laid by the aid Of steamer on the lsth

ten tuns. The greatest speed in laying it was four
miles per hour 1t has been stated that this cable was
an American triumph of ski tic. This is mistake
as the cable was imported for this express purpose,
and its arrival was duly noticed at the time.
