The prussian " Needle " Gun.

As this weapon, which was referred to a
few DAYS since in the German war news, will
IN all probability be frequently mentioned dur
ing the course of the present European war,
a few words in descrin.ion Of its plan and
pri ciples wlllnOt be out of place.
The cartridge used in the Needle gun
is made of stiff cardboard, the ball, powder,
and explosive composition being contained in
sne and the same cylinder. It's great peculi-
arity is that the detona'ion powder is placed
Immediately in rear of the base Of the ball,
and between it and the powder. The advan-
tage Of this is that. when the powder is ignit-
ed. that portion next the ball. in which COM
bustion is first perfected exerts IFS iull force
upon the proiectile. the powder in the rear
also exeriing lis influence, as it becomes al
most simultaneously ignitHd. Under the pres
ent system. in which that part Of the powder
next to the breech Of the gun is first ignited,
a norton of the powder is frequently expeH-
ed from the gun. with the ball in a condition
of only partial combustion, the explosive
force of the powder first consumed being ad-
euuate to expel the ball and the powder in
it's front. before The whole charge has time
to become entirely ignited. Thus in the
Needle" gun all the power is consumed.
and applied to the best effect, and so as to
obtain It's fullest force at the same instant and
in the same direction.
The " Needle gun is breech-loader: and
when the trigger Is pulled. = stout needle
or wire is thrust through the base Of the car
fridge. parallel with It's skis, into the detonat-
ing charge by the hall. causing its explosion
and the ignition of the cartridge. Iu accnra-
CIV the Needle gun cannot be surpassed,
and IT'S effective range is said to be about 6f-
teen hundred yards. It's. however, doubt
h,l whether it will he found to bear with i'm
nrnitv the necessarily rough treatment Of an
active campaign. The Prussian Jaggers. and
shsr7-shooters generally. ale armed wilh this
formidable weapon. and upon skirnish line,
when It can he used with care and delibera-
- II must rrnve hichly effective.

WAR IN EURoPE.-Recent accounts from
Europe point strongly toward war between
Prussia and Austria. Both nations are
ngthening their military forces, and the
lesser German nationaIities are said to be
doing the same. Both of these great states
protest that they wish to keep the peace, but
the London Times says the measures they
are taking are identical with those which
have usually preceded every modern war be-
tween powerful nations The threatened
troubles have grown out Of the settlement of
the Schleswig Holstein question, the duchies
that these powers wrested from Denmark
year or more ago.

FENIAN GUNs.-The first discovery of arms
to be used by the Fenian organization against
Canada, is said to have been made few
days ago at Calais, Maine. A vessel arrived
at that place containing number of cases
of Springfield or Enfield muske,s. Eight
boxes were surreptiously taken off, when the
Collector of the port, seized the remainder
1872 boxes, containing 1900 guns-and re
moved them to Fort Sullivan for safe keep
ing. The action of the Collector has been
approved.

COLORADO TO BE ADMrTED.-A few weeks
ago Congress refused to admit the Territory
Of Colorado, with population of $4,000, as
a State of the Union. For some reason, not
made known, the Senate has reversed its &C.
ton, and the question is now before the
House. 1t is believed that Colorado will be
admitted and two new and radical Senators
will take their seats. Are the radicals
strengthening themselves in that body for
the threatened impeachment of the Presi.
dent? We shall see.

Bound FOR THE EAST. - E. NJ. Hall, our
old and we'll known fellow citizen, departs
for the East on the steamer of the 10th Of
May next. His principal object in going
East s to induce capitalists to invest in Pla-
Ger County mines. No more competent per-
son could represent us in the East than Mr..
II. He has been familiar with Placer Coun-
ty mines for the last fifteen year, and knows
that we have as rich mines as any portion Of
California, and that all that is needed is
plenty of capital to develop them, and rich
ly remunerate those who invest. Success
attend him, and a safe return with plenty of
the 'needfup to aid in developing our mini
eral resources.
