Mr.. EDWARDS PAINrINGs.-The pictures
advertised by Mr.. Edwards in our columns
are well worthy the attention of connoisseurs
and gentlemen desiring to ornament their
houses. In addition to native genius of
high order, Mr. E. has had the advantage of
studying his fayorite art in the galleries of
Europe and from the best pictures of the most
eminent masters. Having made his residence
with us, he is one of us, and is worthy of re-
ceiving liberal share of public patronage.
He has some exceedingly fine specimens of
Swiss, Italian, and American scenery, with
various fruit, cattle, and marine pieces. One
we particularly admired, called 'tItalia," a
soft, hazy, mellow sunset. Another, perhaps
the gem of his collection, is the head and
bust OF beautiful Circassian girl, in grace
4ul' oriental costume. One large piece, the
Foruhe Romano" gives the most natural
P,eSen'"uon of that interesting classic spot
that we have ever seen: the old bouses. walls
pnlars' ana ruins are all IN their true colors.
Win no altempt at any additional effect. He
has also copies of the works of Guido nv.
tan, Raphael, and of the Sybil OF Cuoroh;r,o
His gallery will amply repay a visit ona :,
open freely to the public.

New GUN.-Mr. Charles C. Coleman of
this city has invented breech-loading gun
which does away with some of the objections
to other guns OF that description. In loading
he does not break the barrel or the stock of
the gun, each of which is one piece; but the
whole lock drops from its place. The charge,
in metal shell, is placed directly into the
barrel at the breech, and the lock, which is in
a lever, is then restored to its place, ready for
the discharge. The lever seems to be one of
so much power and so securely located as to
render the gun entirely safe. The work is
simple, as it should be, the arrangement COM
pact, and with very little practice the gun
may be very effective in SERVICE Palladium.
We have examined this new breech-loader,
and concur fully in what the Palladium says in
its favor. The machinery by which it is
worked is very simple, readily managed, and
not liable to get out of order. The gun de-
serves attention, and it will doubtless have
fair trial and make its way in the market.
