WE saw Yesterday, at the Office Of the
Military Telegraph Operator, a pistol dif.
fering considerably from those in general
use. II a large pistol can be called "a horse
pistol" we think that the word elephant"
might be inserted in the place Of horse, as an
appropriate designation OF the weapon re-
ferred to. We understand that il was ORR
ginally rifle, and was transformed TO its
present shape by the ingenuity Of a cavalry
man who served in the late war. Ii is said
to be very effective, and from its appearance
one would suppose that it had former De
longed 10 some member Of gang of desper-
ADDE'S, who knew no mercy. A company Of
men armed with weapons of similar con-
struction would certainly present a very for
midable aspect. As relic Of the late con-
nict, il might very properly find place in
some collection OF military curiosities.

AMONGST the many complimentary no
tees given us by the press of this city, we
know of none which we deem as coming
with 80 much heartfelt sincerity, as the fol-
lowing from the Nashville Daily Union:
AT a period like the present. when our city. is
filled to overlooking with transient popuia-
ton, and diseases prevail TO an extent hitherto
undreaint Of il is proper that the means OF cure
should be Of ready access, and that those imme-
diately interested should have information which
will lead them to avail themselves of competent
medical advice. Men who have been educated IN
the best schools IL the profession ofmedicine ana
been successful in practice Of many years are
surely worthy Of confidence; ii they have gwen
their attention exclusively to one branch OF the
profession. and made themselves masters OF IT.
they have still more right to expect support, more
particularly if they have Afforded proof OF Their
ability 70 cure. To this latter class belongs DIX.
L. Il. COLEMAN, who. in bis specially. has been
a benefaetor to the afflicted, and may ever be re-
lied on as a safe and sure physician-'

The blacksmiths of this country would
not attempt to shoe horse unless he was
tied. In the forges here the horse is placed
in narrow STALL and fastened with rope
behind. There are projecting irons through
which a round piece OF iron is run, and each
hind leg in succession is tied to this be-
fore the smith attempts to take off or put
in the shoe An English blacksmith would
take the hind leg of horse, put it in his
lap, and put on the shoe while the Belgian,
or Dutch smith is rigging his apparatus.
The horses are used with winkers but in
Switzerland they altogether dispense with
them, driving as well as in carts. The
horses heads look more fair under the
Swiss treatment. The rope harness used
here contrasts with the laboriously plepar-
ed leather harness in England
