The attention Of the Bureau has been In
vited to the results said TO have been OBJ
tanned recently in Europe, with gun cotton
prepared in a. peculiar manner; and 1t is
ready to make trial Of its properties, AZ
compared with. gunpowder, whenever the
samples ordered, are received. One fact,
however, connected with this material Is
certainly an objection to its general use
and that Is the liability to explode at ul,-

\ In respect to small armU fOE~the navy,

for the purpose Of obtaining an arm which
would combine tho several qualities Of
range, accuracy and sufficient weight Of

In use, and adaptability to the various cir
cumstancea under which It would be most
| likely to be brought into action. Between
Misunderstanding and breech loading mus
kets the advantages are held to be with the
latter, the chief points of advantage being

of fire, and lightness.

military authorities, they obtained track
of man named Claus Glass, . substitute
deserter from Camp Mcclellan, and traced
him to the Mississippi House on Front, be-
tween Main and Harrison streets The Of.
fces went there and made inquiries Of
Haupt, the proprietor, but be pretended 70
be entirely innocent Of any knowledge OF
the man the officers we're looking for. But
his assertions were taken with 20 many
grains Of allowance that the authorities
proposed . search of the premises. To this
Haupt objected. but without avail. The
search was made, and in q dark corner OF
the wine cellar, which was locked and the
key found in Haupt's pocket, was found
the deserter. From his associations with
the wine casks he was considerably ''eleva-
ted." He and Haupt were marched off to
Camp Mcclellan and placedin secure quar-
tiers. In the house were also found several
blan kets, = saber, and other public proper
ty. The ohense of Haupt In concealing
deserters and concealiug government prop

suffer the consequences.-Davenport Ga
