Breech-iOadlng Arms in Europe and the
United States.
1rron The Army and Navy journal. |

Through special sources OF information we
learn some Interesting facts in regard to the
action of the different European powers in the
matter of breach-loading arms. The French, we
are told, have adopted the system OF Chassepot,
which is the invention of French mechanic who
succeeded in passing the barriers of official rout-
inc, and bringing his invention directly to the
attention of the Emperor. Chassepot's gun is
needle-g gun, with a short needle. 1t is an i'm
provement on the Prussian needle-gnn, and is free
from the leakage of gas to which the earlier
models of that gun were subject The French
claim for it, as compared with the Prussian gun
greater simplicity and facility in handling, and
| less liability to arrangement We learn that two
hundred thousand Of these guns are to be finished
by October LIST, or soon after. The trial of this
gun has been conducted with the greatest secrecy
the president of the commission carrying the gul
home with him in his carriage, and never suffering
it to 60 out of his sight.

their imperfect and clumsy needIe,guns, as the
object to our American system of metallic cart
ridges on account of the great expense of III
cartridge. The cartridge used in the ChassepC
gun IS made With gauze wrapper, and is use

EDUCATION OF G1RLs.-Fronl book entitled
/" The Higher Education of Women" by a Miss
Emily Davies, just published in London, we copy
the following suggestive paragraph:
In the education of girls the selection of sub
jects seems to be directed by no principle what
ever Strong protests are raised against assimila-
ting it to that Of boys but very little is said as to
the particulars in which it ought to differ. The
present distribution is indeed, somewhat whim-
steal. Inasmuch as young men go into offices
where they have to conduct foreign correspon-
dence, and, as they travel about all over the
world, they are taught the dead languages. AS
womsns place is the domestic hearth, and as
middle-cass women rarely ever see q foreigner,
they are taught modern languages with special
view to facilitate in speaking. As men are sup
posed to work with their heads all day, and have
nothing in the world to do when they are in
disposed for reading, but to smoke or go to sleep
they are taught neither music nor drawing. As
women have always the resource of needlework,
they learn music and drawing besides. Aswomen
are not expected to take part in political affairs,
they are taught history; as men do, boys are
taught mathematics instead. In physical science.
astronomy and botany are considered the ladies'
department; chemistry and mechanics being the
branches most directly applicable to domestic
uses, are reserved for boys"
