MANUFACTURES OF FIRE ARMs.-The
machinery now employed by the FEEDER
al Government for the manufacture of
firearms is complete. A musket may
be turned out every so minutes of the
working day from the raw material
The machinery is of the most perfect
description, and does the work with I'M
erring accuracy. 1t is said that in no
department Of the mechanic arts has
the inventive mind been exerted with
more astonishing or elaborate results.
To produce a musket entire, 294 ma
chimes, and nearly 500 distinct mechan-
ical processes are involved. The iron
from which the barrels are made costs
5000 per ton. This is cut up from bars
into pieces of ten pounds weight, and
fourteen inches in length, which, after
being drawn out to forty inches under
nearly white heat, is curved and welt
ed ON steel rods. Each barrel is then
bored out, and reduced in weight from
ten pounds to four-and-a-half, after
which it is polished with emory on re-
volving wheels. The quality of the
workmanship that IS displayed in the
making of these barrels is thought not
to be exceeded by il any in the world.

A ROBBERS CAvE-DisCovERY OF
GREAT WEALTH.--It has been known
to very few persons in the city for some
time, that discovery of great wealth
has been made in the interior of Ken
lucky, on the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad, by poor family who lived in
this city. The discovery was made by
young man while blowing in the field
about six months since. As he was
blowing leisurely along, the earth sud
denly gave way under his feet, and he
was precipitated INTO an immense cav
orn Much injured by the fall, the young
man, in casting about him for some
means wherewith to get out, discovered
numbers of iron safes and strong boxes,
which, upon investigation, were found
to contain gold and silver coin, jewelry,
and other valuables to fabulous
amount. The plantation on which all
this treasure was found does not belong
to the fortunate disooyerers, who only
leased the property, and from motives OF
security they have kept the secret of
their good fortune to themselves. An
eminent legal gentleman of this city is
about interesting himself to secure the
fortunate family in the ownership of
these great treasures, the results of
whose labor, in connection with other
particulars, we will give in few days.

iously awaiting the approach of Santa
Anna and his forces, tall, Jonathan
Slick-icai specimen of the New Eng
land homo, having become little fright
ened at the idea of fighting five to one,

prayer:
ooh Lord! we are about to engage
in an awful battle. Santa Anna, with
his wooden leg, and an army five times
as strong as we are, has come against
us; but with the help of thy powerful
hand, we viii scatter the enemy, as
wheat IS scattered by the hand OF the

SMALL Pox.-The following are some
of the most important conclusions en-
bodied in the report of the committee on
vaccination of the French Academy of
SCIENCES, Feb. 18th, 1915.
l. "Small pox rarely attacks those
who have been vaccinated before the age
of ten or twelve, from which age until
thirty or thirty-fve, they are particu-
larry liable to small pox.
2. Vaccine matter taken directly
from the cow, causes local symptoms of
great intensity; its effects are also more
certain than those of old vaccine matter;
but after being transmitted for few
weeks through the human subject, the
local intensity disappears.
3. at is prudent to regenerate vac
cine as frequently as possible, to pre-
serve its protective power, and the only
mode Of doing this deserving of conf
dence is to procure it from the COW.
A. characterization is the only known
method of distinguishing those vaccina-
ted persons that remain protected from
those that do not.
). "The success of re-vaccination is
not certain proof that the person in
whom it succeeds was liable to contract
small pox; it merely establishes toll
erably strong presumption that he was
more or less liable to take it.
6. in ordinary periods re-Yaccina-
ton should be practiced after fourteen
years, but sooner during an epidemic"
gI Under the dominion of the Ce-
lestial Empire, the Mantchoo Tartars
have remained for centuries upon cen
turtles in the condition of nomads and
barbarians. Among those, however,
now brought under the Government of
Russia by the annexation of the coun-
try on the Amour, decided change for
the better seems to be taking place.
Incited by the example of the Russians
who have settled among them, or in
their neighborhood, the Tartars are
abandoning their nomadic mode of life.
to become agriculturists and learn hand
icrafts, and send their children to Rus
sian schools Many of them have OBJ
tanned sufficient education to become
officers in the regiments Of the Buryat
Cossacks, and two young men from
among these Mongols are already finish
ing their studies at the University of
Kasan, one of the best and, even under
the late rigid reign, the most liberal in
Russia. This gave an evidence of the
capacity of the Monaghan race for a
higher mental culture.
