In these piping times Of war, we see and
hear a great deal of nonsense talked about the
Enfield and Mimic rifles 1t is most generally
supposed that the Enfields and MINES are
pc ,uar rifles, the one French and the other
English, both invented by men whose names
have been given to these firearms. The En-.
field derives its name from the place where it
is made, namely the government armory in
Enfield, England and is in most respects like
the American army rifle made at Springfield.
The barrel of it is formed OF the best charcoal
IRON, It's length 80 inches bore 80 of an
inch 1T has three grooves, 1.16 of an inch
wide and 5OOlh OF and inch deep. The pitch
OF the grooves is 6 feet 6 inches. A hollow
conical ball, with plug Of lockwood placed in
the base, is used i'll this rifle A graduated
back sight, set for ranges from 200 TO 1000
yards is fixed on the Enfields.
The Mimic rifle derives its name from Lieu
tenant Mimic, Of the French Infantry. who
first applied the hollow expanding bullet TO
the army rifle, by whose exertions it was first
brought into use. The French rifles have
four grooves-.2758 inches in width. OO7SS
in depth, and one turn i'll six feet The buI
let is hollow aud conical, and weighs 484
grains; no wedge is now used. Formerly
elcyating sights were fixed GA all the French
army rifles, but these have been dispensed
with so as 10 render the arms more simple
The back sight of the rifle is elevated at .7S
of an inch above the barrel. A French sol
der of the line aims at the waistband of the
foe, and with his fixed rifle sight he is sure to
strike him within or at $50 yards distant
When firing at greater distance, he uses his
thumb nail for back sight, by placing it
across the barrel, ard by long practice in Judg-
ing of distances by the eye, he obtains won
derfu precision in his aim. The corps of
Chasseurs and Zo,mves have elevating sighis
on their rihes.-tScienhfc american. .

New York, June 4.-The frigate Susque-

An article in the London Times of May %,
on jeff Davis message, says :--"Mr. Davis,
while making studious display OF modera
tion, and endeavoring to conciliate the good
will of European nations, is perfectly aware
that his theories depend for acceptance on the
rifles of his fellow citizens. The tribunal
which decides questions OF interna tional law
is usually stern one, If the north prevails,
it will prove that the Union was a nationality
if the south makes good its independence, it
will prove that the Union was a partnership
during pleasure. This is what is to be decid-
ed, and we must await the event" The
Times thinks that great movements will be
postponed till fall.
The steamer james Adger sailed to-day for
Fortress Monroe, with troops also, the Ala.
