BULL's HEAD,-Tbe report OF the Cattle market
shows receipt for the week Of 1864 head Of fat bull
locks. which il 854 head less than the receipts Of
the previous week. This will readily account for
the fact that prices advanced at the opening full
half cent pound net, and were pretty well GUS
tanned to the close, all the cattle selling out before
Tuesday night, and several hundred in addition that
arrived last week too late for the market. Inc
Price this week wonld have been still better, but 1or

The RAFAEL REPEATER.-A trial was had yester.

Rafael, called the Rafael Repeater. 1t is gun fir
ing half.inch elongated ball, mounted on a light

was drawn by two men. 1t is 80 constructed as to
pass slide containing l6 loaded chambers through
the breech before the BARREL firing each as it is pre-
sen,ed to the barrel. Is is worked by crank and
q single CAM tne TeVoluiloh Vi Wni.h "'-N"'' w.
slide from the barrel, shoves the slide along, pre-
senting the next chamber then crowds it up tight,
fitting by sort of concal joint, and discharges the
piece four operations in one turn Of the crank 1t
can be fred with all the accuracy OF tareet'rlfie
screwed into vice, and 10 shots, the number I'D
each slide, were fred in four seconds yesterday or
at the rate of 24O per minute Standing by the tar
get, at the distance OF nearly half mile, we noted
their effect All struck within circle Of or feet,
and they excited considerable commoion among the
rocks Of Union Hill. The machinery of the gun is
no simple that it would hardly seem possible to get 1t
on; Of order, even in the excitement and haste o.
the battlefield. It has this advantage over field
pieces for huf.mle ranges that 1t can be taken iuto
action by men, and taken out OF acton by men,
With the sharpshooting of present warfare artillery
horses are very shoTtllved ON the held aud Uncle
Sam has lost a great many good guns because the
horses can be picked OF easily. 1t is proposed III
tie use of these guns leave the horses behind out
OF harms way, ard take the guns into the field BY
band. Abont eight men are required to load emu
fire 900 shots in ten minutes, the loading being the
main part of the work, and when once the proper
range is established it is not easily lost as there is
no sensible recoil to the piece. by lateral move
ment of the piece tie stream OF murderous lead which
this little piece pours upon the enemy may be mace
to flow along line Of men, and it is difficult to see
how any infantry could withstand such a fire.
