The Columbiad or Paixhan' (pro.

signed principally for firing shclls-it
being far more accurate than the
ordinary short mortar. mo I,s...
A mortar. is a, very short cannon
with large BORE, some of them thir.
teen inches in diameter, for firing
shells. Those in use in our army arc
set at an angle of 45 degrees, and the
range of the shell is varied by alter.
ing the charge of powder. The shell
is caused to explode at just about tho
time that it strikes, by means Of a fuse,
the length to which il adjusted to the
time Of fight to be occupied by the
ball, which, Of course, corresponds
with the range. The accuracy with
which the time ofa burning Of q fuse
can be adjusted by varying its length

ly succeed in having their shells ex.
lplode almost at the exact instant OF
striking. In loading a mortar, the shell
is carefully placed with the fuse direct.
]y forward, and when the piece is dis
charged, the shell is 80 completely
envclopcd with flame, that the fuse Is
nearly always fired. The fuse is made
by filing wooden cylinder with fuse
powder, the cylinder being Of sufficient
length for the longest range, to be Gu,
down shorter for shorter ranges as
required. qs gs#g .a

The following narrative will be found

to by many witnesses, wo will relate
the incident as told lis by an aged
relative many years ago, and leave the
reader to form his own conclusions as
to the cause. .sfa.nea 4 uara.s 5
At time when Liberty is raising
her head in centuries oppressed Italy,
anything connected with that *']and Of
song and sunny skies will be read
with interest by the liberty loving pco-
pie Of this vast continent; and hence a
few Introductory remarks respecting
the ancient village of Sorrento. near
the scene of our adventure, may not
here be out Of place:
On the southern shore Of the Bay Of
Naples, lies the celebrated village of
Sorrento, renowned in classic lore.-
Within its limits once stood the dwell
lings of cmperors. Here tho great
Caesar sought retirement from the
cares of state, and the bloody Nero
luxuriated in the warm springs which
arc yet called Nero's Baths. It was
here Caligula attempted to build his
ambitious bridge, and the vile Nero
had his own mothers life attempted.
1t is asserted that St. Paul landed here,
when he journeycd a prisoner 10 Rome.
The small island fronting it is called
Nisida, where Marcus Brutus retired
after the deed at the foot of Pompey's
statue, and from whence he and Cas-
sius embarked, to meet the shade of
the murdered Caesar at Philippi.-
Virgil, the father Of Italian classics, is
said to repose here; and not far remov-
ed from Sorrento, les the buried city
OF Pompeii, which, in one night, by an
eruption of Mount Vesuvius, was en-
tombcd for centuries, and whose sight
was, seventeen hundred years after,
revealed, by accident, to peasant,
who was til'ing the ground.
Some fifty years since, an English
merchant vessel, after discharging her
cargo in Naples, lay becalmed in the
bay. The breezcs which had waited
her to her destination had ceased to
blow, and not even gentle zephyr
rufflcd the placid waters, which lay
like sheet Of glass underneath, save
when some agile member Of the tinpy
tribe caused few eddics to move

The march of civilization, with the
wonderful discoveries of modern times,
have given a fatal blow to Superstition.
One by ono, the extraordinary stories
our simple fathers so implicitly believed
in, and handed down from generation
TO generation, have been explained on
natural grounds; and the huge super
structure Of Ignorance Frustrated by
,"sling and stone'' of Science. The
Giants Of the lIartz Mountains have
disappeared forever; tie rip Van
Wrinkles have awoke from their sleep
of centuries; Witches and NVarlocks
no longer take their midni ght aerial
journeys on broomsticks in t'AIerrie
England" "nor Ghouls haunt kirk-yards
to "glower" at affrightcd rustics in
"Bonnic Scotland" The "Good Peo-
ple' too, ,have fors aiken the ''froths and
secluded glens of the Emerald Isle,
and in their place, the eschoolmaster
is abroad" The. armed hosts seen
fighting in the air by the ancients,with
the phantom-ships sailing on the
clouds, so much dreaded by the super
stitious mariner, are now fully account
ed for by simple science. 25
But though Superstition has received
its death blow, and fingers fecbly in
the haunts of Ignorance, still there
are some things that have occurred
even in modern times, which cannot
be accounted for on natural grounds,
and which possibly may never be re-
vealcd on this side Of the grave, or till
the matured sciences of after ages will
have made those things as plain to our
descendants as tho errors Of our fore
