LETART, O., Nav 6, 1861.
w. II. HAYMAN

Ed. TelegrapA:-Allow US to say that,
pursuant to call, meeting was held
in our township, Saturday, 9th April,
to organize Home Guard, which failed.
After some very appropriate remarks
from Messls. Alderman and Swallow. it
was announced that the patriotic ladies
Of Letartsville and vicinity had prepared
a nice, large flag, to be called the ssLa-
dies Flag of the Union" upon which
the crowd repaired to the river bank and
raised a pole, and the glorious old en-
blem of liberty and American freedom
the Stars and Stripes-was hoisted, amid
cheers for it and the Union. Meeting
adjourned to meet one week hence, and,
if possible, organize Home Guard
Met last Saturday, but instead of an in
crease, we had decrease to the roll, and
our Home Guard is unorganized; yet we
have hopes of its final success.
With this we have to say, that the
patriotism Of old Letart is not what
might be desired, under the almost in
eyitable certainty of foraging parties;
nor no excuse, but the actions Of some
of our citizens And the object Of some
is to chuckle and deride all manifesto
tions of preparation-eyen urging to the
Encouragement Of an organization Of
self-defense Men, in Letart township,
will denounce it, and declare that their
farming interests are greater than the
interests of their bleeding country, suf-
fering at the hand Of traitors and rebels,
and even exult at the success of them;
and too, declaring that they will only
protect their own fresides. Now, if
men will thus treat freedom and its flag
so lightly-the flag of their country and
their protection-and exert only dele
terious influence, when the flag is being
torn down, disdained, dishonored, and
even ignominiously buried on the Sab
bath day, we feel that language is insVf-
fcient to denouce it with sufficient We.
hemence. Men who will thus act so
cool, so uninterested, when well ac-
quainted with the danger, are simply
enemies to us and our privileges. Woe!
be to such citizens, if their heart is with
their actions; for we dread conflict in
their midst. We conclude, by saying
to the citizens of Letart township, or
ganize a Home Guard Immediately, for
the protection of yourselves, your fami-
lies, your neighbors' families, your for
tune, your honor as a free and independ
ent people, and the flag and emblem Of
your country.
Come out, one and all. P.

Loa ding Of Rifles.

Careful LOa ding OF hihes'
The use of the conical bullet in ri
fes is great Improvement over the
old spherical bullet Its form offers
less resistance to the atmosphere in
passing through it, and heavier bullet
can be employed, thus greatly increas-
ing the range or distance which it car
ries. But the conical bullet is not
more accurate for short ranges than the
round ball; indeed, it is not so accurate,
unless the rifle is loaded with care. A
conical bullet must enter the barrel per-
fectly true; otherwise, when discharged,
it will be liable to fly off tothe one side.
Those American rifles which are en-
ployed for prize shooting are Of two
classes-one having Clarks false muz-
zle, the other Fish's turned and counter
sunk muzzle The false muzzle is a
short, loose section of the rife barrel,
which fits on the barrel with pins for
loading, so as to give the bullet snug
and accurate entrance; then it is taken
off when the rifle is to be fired.
Unless the muzzle of the barrel is
perfectly true-if it has the slightest
defect in the grooves or lands-the bull
let will not carry straight. Soldiers
and others who have rifles, should be as
careful of their muzzle as their watches.
The Countersunk muzzle protects the
end of the barrel, which is also turned
for about an inch and half on the out
side. This is for the purpose of .receiv-
ing loader, which consists of a small
flask, into which the bullet is inserted
to give it an accurate entrance into the
bore.-.Sctentifc 4n,erican.
