Among the curiosities brought by the
11th Ohio cavalry which arrived in this
city yesterday morning, from the far West,
were to be seen yesterday afternoon in
front of C. Siebert's establishment, No. 253
South High street, the lofty, widespread
ing antlers of large elk, left there by one
of the gallant members of the regiment,
by whom the original owner Of the mon
strous headgear had been killed. The two
main antlers measure across from tip to
tip four and half feet, and are each adorn-
ed with five or six large branches. They
must have belonged to an animal of large
size

The Prus.lan NeedIe Gum.

The 0needle gun," in use in Prussia, is q
formidable weapon, described by the Lon
don Times as a converted Enfield on the
Synder system, with improved ammunition
devised by the WOolwich Laboratory. This
rifle possesses the advantage OF being sim
ple, safe, cheap, n0n-capping, and little
liable TO get out of order. Moreover itdoes
not require such q reduction of the stock
as to destroy the efficiency of weapon
which, for military purposes, is required to
act as a pike, as tireafm. A portion Of
the upper side of the breech end of the bar
rel is cut out for the admission of the car
fridge. This vacant place Is closed, after
loading. by lump OF steel, the ''breech-
stopper" or "breech- piece" which hinges
upon one side of the barrel, and forms a
false breech, against which the back end OF
the cartridge rests; the barrel Is, in fact
shortened 10 this extent. A plunger or
piston transmits the blow of the hammer
through the stopper to the cap of the car
fridge, which Is withdrawn after firing by
liUtle instrument which forms part OF the
stopper.
The cartridge is OH the central fire" sys-
TEN, the chief novelties being the case and
bullet. AS regards the former, the object
has been to provide case which shall un-
coil or unwind TO d certain extent on the
discharge. The bullet is a combination OF
various constructions, none OF them origt-
nal, but producing together proje ctile
of sufficiently dis inetive character. 1t has
the general form and appearance Of the
Enfield rifle bullet, with its hollow base and
baked clay plug; It'll has the cannelures which
originally characterized the Tamisier and
the Mimic bullet, and the wood plug in the
head, to which Mr.. Mettord and Mr.. Whit
worth may lay some claim. The cartridge
is perfectl7 impervious to moisture; 1t is
safe, not liable To lead or foul; 1t admits OF
fourteen rounds being fired in a minute,
and it shoots from twenty to twenty-five
per cent. better than the service Enfield
ammunition.

The Hanlon Brothers had another crowd
ed house at the Atheneum last night, not
wlthstanding the threatening aspect OF the
weather Everything passed of, as on the
previous evenings of their performances
here, to the great Entertainment aud delight
of the audience. There is one commenda-
BILE quality in the mode of conducting their
performances, which, on account Of its
rarity, deserves special mention. It's, thai
the different feats and exhibitions succeed
each other rapidly, without long and tedi-
Gus waiting on the part Of the audience
This adds greatly to the enjoyment OF tbs
entertainment.
The acrobatic and gymnastic feats OF the
Brothers were ilast evening as skilful, ar
tistic and wonderful as usual. Particular
ly were the audience surprised and amused
with their feats, in which the three broth
ers carry on an animated and humorous
conversation while going through with the
most difficult and astonishing acrobatic per
formances. 4ttaa s.4Fts8
Mr.. Tanners trained dogs and monkey'

But the grand novel attraction was the

1t elected rapturous applause.
No exhibition, perhaps, has given NOR
real delight and mirth to an audience II
this city than the shadow pantOmime. Tn
manner in which the spectres or shadowy
personages appear and vanish creates a
once surprise, laughter and applause. q .

last entertainment but one. Improve tn
opportunity to see their curiousexhibitions
The programme is varied each evening.

Arrival of the Eleventh cavalry.

The 1lth Ohio Veteran Volunteer Cav

This is the last Of the organizations OF
Ohio volunteers in the service of the United
States. Being the last Of 0hio's brave sons,
returning from long and hard service, they
should have had reception worthy of the
gallant men and the memorable event. But
instead of this, though the State authorities
had been telegraphed TO, and knew of thell
coming, the regiment was not even received
with common courtesy, and had nothing tc
eat, save the hardestand meanest fare. This
must be somebody's fault. Can it be thai

sions of love for the soldiers were recently
so unboundedP II so, what change hai
come over the ''spirit Of their dream ?"

EnfnI AMRY.

On Saturday last, about II O'Clock, an az
fray took place, at the Stacey House Sa-
loon, between Frank Sullivan, one of the
proprietors of a saloonlon Third street, and
"Biily Wilson," usually known as "Curly
Wilson" which terminated In the death Of
the latter. The facts are said to be substan-
tially as Follows: The parties met by acci-
dent at the above named saloon, and a few
words passed which at the time were sup
posed to be sport, as both parties had for
merly been on very familiar terms. Will
son left the saloon, and was called back by
Sullivan, and glass of beer drank by
each. and Sullivan then left, leaving Will
son standing at the counter of the saloon.
Sullivan had been gone but a moment,
when he returned and struck Wilson a
heavy blow on the cheek with his left fist,
knocking him down, fracturing his skull
in the fall. The proprietor Of the saloon
then interfered, Sullivan left, and Wilson
was taken to a back room and properly
cared for. During the afternoon he left the
Stacey House saloon, and proceeded on the
way home as far as Pierpoint's, on Market
street, where he became insensible and was
taken to his mothers residence on Sixth
street, where he died about 3 o'clock on
Sunday morning. He never spoke after re-
ceiving the blow. When 1t became known
that Wilson's injuries had terminated fatal
ly, Sullivan was notified by some of his
friends, and one Of them procured buggy
and he attempted to escape, and succeeded
in reaching Norwich, where he was over
hauled by Marshal Wolf with policeman
Carson, and brought back aud lodged with
Sheriff Leslie. He has an examination be-
fore Esquire Quigly; on tomorrow. The
body of Wilson has had post n,ortem exam

Hildreth and Day, and the results will be
given tomorrow. The remains are packed

abroad, and will be inferred Tomorrow

TEE English are fond Of abusing the peO

TEE English are fond of abusing the peo-
pie of the United States for not preserving
the Indian tribes from becoming extinct
before our civilization. But the same
thing is taking place In New Zealand. The
natives are fast disappearing. DR.. Feath-
erstone says that twenty years ago their
numbers we're estimated at one hundred
thousand; now they do not number forty
thousand souls, and In twenty years they
viii he reduced TO q mere handful. It is
not that their longevity is abridged, bni
that from some underlined cause, whenever
placed side by side with Europeans, ''the
hearths OF the natives, like the wigwams oI
the American Indians, retreat or disappear
before the torrent ofimmigration. ~

We had refreshing showers of rain yes
terday afternoon preceded by high wind
which, we fear, has done some damage to
the growing and tender stalks Of corn in
this vicinity. But perhaps, the wind had
but q narrow range. At all events, we
have good reason to be grateful for the
showers, as they served to cool the heated
atmosphere, and to give new tone and Wig
