WHALING GUN. PATENT BOMB LANCE
AND GUN
A ETER SEVERAL YEARS AND
IN experimenting upon whales, on the whaling ground, with
his apparatus, combined with the advantages of being n practical
whaleman, the Patentee has been enabled to obtain an instru-
ment in form of a Bomb Lance, which for utility and effective
ness cannot be exceled.
The attention of Agents and Officers of whale-ships is called
to the following testimonials.
SAN Francisco, January 10, 1856.
CAPT. K. BRowN-Sir: 1 take this opportunity to inform
you that we used those Bomb Lances we bought of you, and
the ice.
The first whale that we used the Bomb Lance on was killed
In the following manner The boat went alongside of the whale
and the boat-steerer fired a Bomb into him ADD then fastened to
whale did not blow after the Bomb exploded. The above-men-
toned whale vas in the ice, and it is our opinion that we should
not have got that whale and many others that we did get, if it
had not been for your Bomb Lances, and we fully recommend
them to the attention of those fitting out whale ships.
Respectfully yours,
THOMAS WALL, Master bark George.
HONOLULU, March II, 1856.
CAPT. ROBERT BRowN-My dear Sir I used your Bomb
Lances In taking a whale, north, the past season, which made
go bbls. of oil. We never could have taken him without said
LanceS, as our boats could not get near enough to use the COM
mon hand lance.
Yours Respectfully,
G. L. Cox, Master whale-ship Magnolia.
Honolulu, March Is, 1856.
CAPT. ROBERT BRowN-Dear Sir / take this opportunity
to inform you that I used your Bombs on the voyage in the ship
recommend them to all whalemen, and especially around the ice.
l also used the harpoon and got most of the whales by your
Guns and apparatus.
Yours Respectfully,
Isaac ALLEN, Master ship Herald.
Other testimonials can be seen by calling on the undersigned,
Agents, who have the Guns, Bomb Lances and Harpoons for

STREET-PREACHING.-W are requested to
give notice that the Rev. Messrs Cotton and
Brisbane propose having Religious Service next
Sunday morning, at Eliason g. Co.'s Corner, to
commence at o'clock. The public are invited
to attend on the occasion and, ii being some
thing new for our town, there will, doubtless, be
large concourse present to hear the addresses.
This means Of religious worship, first intro
duced in the neglected part OF our large cities,
where people knew little of, and scarcely, if
ever, avaed themselves of the benefits Of Chris
tlan worship in the churches, and which has
proved such a blessing in such quarters, has
been recently resorted to by the ministers of
nearly all denominations in England and this
country. When properly conducted they have
almost universally exhibited happy results
Religion can never be tarnished by being car
ried into the streets and highways, on the very
Vantage-ground of it's great adversary nay, its
very influence has been curtailed, perhaps, by
clothing 1t IN too much sanctity amidst pillard
walls

THE CAMDEN CAMP, which commenced on
Friday last, is progressing inely-the order be-
ing remarkably good, and meetings very spirit
ed. We understand that there was a very
large attendance on Sunday-ths Rev. John A.
Roche preaching 10 the morning, WIN. c.
Robinson in the afternoon, and Jos. n. Magee
in the evening. On Monday, the Revs. A. Long
acre and Il. J. Thompson, and on Tuesday, Jno.
T. Gracey and Jno. S. Willis. There are about
sixty tents. From present prospects the meet
Ing will result in much good. Camp-meetings
have been very numerous the present season,
and several within convenient distance Of this
Town. Much is said against them in different
,uarters, but it will be found, as general rule,
hat those who complain the most of disorder
nd wickedness, are the very ones that engage
tue most extensively in the same.

MAIL ROBBERy.-The mail between this
place and Smyrna, says the Easton Gazette,
was robbed on Saturday night last, near Gen.
trevile. The driver, by some means, took the
wrong road directly on leaving Easton, and
went to Centreville. The bag that was robbed
contained the Baltimore mail, and was not
missed until the driver reached Greensborough.
The bag and papers were found in the mill
branch near Centreville, by person who had
gone to the woods in search of berries. We
have not learned whether any money is missing
or not. Several drafts were found among the
scattered papers, and most of the letters were
raed of their contents. The Easton Bank had |
determined to send $4,000 to Baltimore that
day, but from some slight cause the Cashier
deferred it, and thereby saved the money
The mail carrier, it is alleged, was intoxicated
We shall withhold comment upon this affair at
present, as efforts are being made to ferret out
the matter.

This notice was overlooked, or it would have
appeared in the Times last week. We have
published several interesting communications
upon the subject of Teaching, the suggestions
in which, we think, deserved the attention beth
Of teachers and school comm lssloners. There
Is evidently need OF Improvement in our Dis
