TAR AMI FEATHERS CoNTrNuBp.-Marion
F. Hukill was tried yesterday morning for
engaging in the recent outrage upon Mr..
GricsmeT. +. NJ, and Geo. P. Webster, Esqs.
conducted the prosecution, and ThOs. T.
Marshall, the distinguished orator of Ken.
tucky, and Mr.. Pultney, the defense. Mr..
Marshall Beptthe courtroom in good humor
for some time, his ideas evidently being
somewhat confused. He was very particular
in questioning the prosecuting witness in
regard 10 his nativity; and when he had been.
thoroughly satisfied upon thatpoint, inquired
whether lie bad ever been a member OF su
Abolition society. This was answered in the
negative. Then followed a series of other
questions, objections, arguments, decisions
and answers; the whole affair assuming at
times q rather ridiculous appearance. Atiast
Mr.. Marshall stated that he had been under
the impression that this trial would assume
a political nature. AS it did not, audhe had
no opportunity to exercise his talents in
bringing to punishment either Abolitionits
or yankees" be gave Sp the case, which
was thereafter conducted by Mr.. Pultney.
II appeared by the testimony that Cries
mer was ffty-One years of age, while his
wife was not quite eighteen. The fact that
Hukll had been engaged in the affair, apply
ing q portion of the tar and shaking the
feathers over his head, was distinctly
proved.
Hukill was therefore bound over by the
Court under $500 bonds to appear az the
August term of the Circuit Court. and in a
second trial he was bound over in 5000 ad.
ditional to keep the peace.
Mr.. Cole wss afterward tried as an accom-
plice and discharged. Fennel will be tried
to-day.

The Enfield Rife.

10 te Ldttofs w DdtV FreAs
In your paper of this morning / notice an
article on rifles, accredited to the Scientific
Atasieaa, in which you must have misguoted
them, else they are in error. OF the Enfield
Rife, it says: Its length (the barely is 80
inehesj bore, $50 of an inch; it has three
grooves, Lie wide and Booth of an inch
Deep" Now, the interior diameter being
$50 the exterior is $50, leaving the barrel 10
of an inch thick at the muzzle, and a groove
500 of an inch deep would cut the barrel
half through. And as TO breadth, the En-
glish have learned too well the value of the
broad groove TO adopt one sixteenth of an
inch for breadth. The Enfield Rifle has three
grooves $50 of an inch in breadth, with 1857
Of an inch breadth of land, nearly. The
grooves, instead of lie, are .0l5 of an inch
in depth. Our army rifle has three grooves,
equal in breadth to the land; the grooves are
obs Of an inch deep at the breach, and .0O5
at the muzzle. N. G. 7.
