RIELED CAxNoN.-Sir VIM. Armstrong, at
recent complimentary dinner given to him in
London, stated that his experience led him to the
conviction that the principle of constructing can
non by the snperpositon Of successive layers of
iron coils welded into cylinders was the best land
to that principle he proposed to adhere in con-
structing gnns Of the largest dimensions. Layer
after layer might be indefinitely applied, and he
could scarcely any limit to the size of the gun
which it was possible to construct by the process
alluded to. In referring to the important ques-
ton of the respective merits possessed,by ritled
artillery AND iron cased ships, the speaker was
inclined to think that, ultimately, the offensive
power of the gun would prevail over the deien-
siye power OF the iron plate; and, as he intended
to construct weapons for hurting ponderous mas

GEN. COMBS AMONG THE SECESSIoNIsTs.--Ihe
following incident is said to have occurred at
Cynthiana, KY, on Tuesday evening of last week:
Hon. Leslie Combs was On his way home on
board the kentucky Central Railroad, and see
ing a large crowd assembled at the Cynthana
depot, he said few words on the subject of
Union, when some beardless youths who were
PLAYING secess ion ''solers" displayed their lack
of good breeding Git is unfair to accuse empty
headj youths of want of patriotism,) by inter-
rupting him and shouting "hurrah for JEFF. Da-
yis.' Mr. Combs felt the insult to himself and
his countrv, and told the young men what he
thought OF them He said they were traitors
and towards that their tribe had shot Ken
tuckian last week, and that they would sell their
country at any time and to any body Of men,
This exasperated the Southern rights volunteers
and six Of them forthwith drew pistols and lev

effect, for he dared any one of them to fire
shot at him, and accompanied his remark by
sudden uplifting of his pedal ornament in the
neighborhood of the coat tail of the secession

were to concentrate there, and by the Baltimore

THURSDAY. :.

- The PoiyHeSian, in its LIST issue, an
nounces that the government printing office and
paper have been leased to Mr.. y. Fernandez,
who states that he will henceforth carry on the
printing business and conduct the publication
of the PoiyncSian newspaper at his own risk
and responsibility. So far as any bona fde
change has been made, we congratulate him on
again assuming before the community an indie
pendent position, and relinquishing that of
a mere employee, hired to hatter the Ministers
and Government, irrespective of any merit due
to chem. The system Of paid fautcry so long
resorted to by the government, has worked in
juriously to It's credis, if not 10 the advancement
OF the public welfare, in various ways, which
have before been pointed out.
The terms on which the public printing office
has been leased. have not definitely transpired
but it is reported that the government still
guarantee "a considerable sum as a subsidy to-
wards the support of the paper. If 50, it can
not be called an independent paper for if such
be the case, it is still depeHdent on the govern
ment for its support, though perhaps not to the
same extent rs formerly. The mode of its pub
LEGATION may be a little changed. and the Office
of director abolished still it may be to all in
tents and purposes supported by the government.
If the change is only of this character, it can in
no wise be satisfactory or permanent.
The Minister of the Interior further announces
that ne has q. contracted with Mr.. Fernandez
aforesaid To do all and various the printing and
publishing, required by the government, &" and
hitherto customarily done by the Government
Press We ,Ieem it our duty to inform the
public, in this connection, that said contract has
been given out without any formal application
to us from the Minister of the Interior for ten
ders to do the printing. We are prepared TO do
government work ut least hcenty- fire per cent.
cheaper than it has heretofore cost; but if the
public printing is to be Jar2ned ont by private
contracts to favorites, in what respect do the
public gain by the changes announced? So far
as we can see, il amounts TO just this
The government retains its printing Office, but leases it,
merely "a a stroke Of policy
Tie PotyHsSiqH newspaper is contracted to be continued,
but the government secures the publisher against loss.
The public printing Is iarIued ont on - private contract, ire
spcctiye of the price for which the work might he done.
OF course the public can judge for itself how
81 independent the Polynesian Will be under the
new regime, or how great saving will be effected
in the public printing. So far us we can learn,
the change amounts virtually TO nothing, except
an adjustment of the Office Of director, and a
nominal lease of the Office; but the public print
ing will cost the people as much in proportion
to the amount of work done, as it ever has.
