France.
Gordon Cumming, the famous lion
hunter, was accidentally killed in Scot

Rogers, a distinguished savant, also
died in Scotland in May.
John Ross, chief of the Cherokee
Nation, died at Washington in August.
The sculptor Gibson died in Italy in
January, seventy-five years old; and
Sir Charles Eastlake, President of the
British Royal Academy, died at Pisa
just as the new year came in.
The most prominent clergyman who

The United States Government is
now having manufactured at Hartford,
Connecticut, one hundred battery guns
Of new invention, and which it is
stated will prove the most destructive
firearm ever invented. The main
characteristics of this terrible weapon
is that it has series of barrels, with
carrier and lock cylinder, ridigly fast
ened to the main shaft, and rotating
simultaneously and continuously by
means of a crank, the cartridges being
fed into the carrier from the feed box
es, thence driven endwise in the rear
ends of the carries, then exploded and
the empty cartridges withdrawn, with
out any pause in the operation. The
incessant loading and firing are pro-
duced by the simplest kind of mechan-
ism, there being fewer parts about the
gun than the Springfield .musket.
This gun can be discharged at the rate
of two hundred shots per minute. One
of it's features is that there is no recoil
which can affect the accuracy of the
aim. When the gun is once sighted
at given object, the same aim can be
maintained at the will of the operator
until thousands Of discharges take
place. A lateral motion of the gun
may be kept up, if desired, while the
gun is being discharged, so that per-
feet sheet of balls can be made to
sweep section of any circle within
its range.

The Burial of GEN Barl<sdnle.

The Burial of GEN EBarl&siale.
Pursuant to the programme an
nouneed yesterday morning, the fu-
neral of General VIM. Barksdale took
place yesterday evening. The relig-
ious and Masonic ceremonies at the
Capital Rotunda and at the grave, were
impressive and appropriate. In re-
spect to the deceased, the High Court
adjourned over until this morning,
and we noticed that all the stores in
the city were closed while the process
sion was passing. Col. Walter, officia-
ting as Master of Masonic ceremonies,
took occasion to pay brief, but ell
oouent tribute to the deceased.
Gliding from the burial ritual, so nat
urally that none remarked the change,
he said:
We are before the grave of no ordinary
citizen. In all the relations OF life, zen
Barksdale challenged the esteem and com

frankness and sterling virtues won him

sound counsels and incorruptlble integrity

LEFT of the statesman AT the head of his no
BILE Mississippians, he led the van on the en-
sanpuiued field, and wherever blows tel
fastest and blood flowed freest, his manly
form was seen and his clarion voice was
heard. In the frightful carnival of death at
Gettysburg, he yielded to that conquerol
whose command Is law, anu Ills Sdlldh'
spirit went home.
And now,
..Tbe trumpet NAV sound, the loud cannons
rattle, :,
He needs not, he hears not, he's free from all
pain,
He sleeps his last sleep, he has fought his
last battle,
No sound can awake him to glory again.
His form lies lifeless before us. His eye
that sparkled at the tale of m1rth, or moist
ened at the pleading of suffering, Is now
closed, and his hand, Inat was ever ol'oI

after his fall, borrowed their elequence
from Robespierre' language over the
dead body Of Marat. Said that able
exampler of the Stevens and Sumner
of to-day: cit was not him they
wished to assassinate was the Re-
public; it is not I who cry for ven
geance, it is the Republic, it is the
people, it is yourselves.
After the overthrow of their old
Constitution was complete, and the
prosecuted people were beginning to
hope for an end to agitation and strife
Billaud Varennes, the Beast Butler of
those days, pronounced the work "but
half done," and urged its completion
'sbefore the people cooled in their ar
dor"
When we call TO mind the fact that
one of the prime objections urged by
the Jacobins of 1871 against their
Girondist rivals, was contained in the
fact that the latter were DESTROYS OF
forming Federal Union of twenty
three co-equal States, after the model
of the American Union," the recapit-

Enough has been cited to show that
the leaders now and the leaders then
held similar principles and follow the
lead of similar passions. They are
sufficient certainly to justify the APP
prehension in the minds of those who
dread monarchy, that our differences
unless speedily settled, must lead to a
state of government in which the su-
preme power is lodged IN the hands
of single person.

The article of the. Memphis Posi-
defending Gen. Forrest from the ca
dummies ventilated by the radical press
during and after the war, is being gen.
orally republished by the abolition
press. The New York Evening Post
commends the article to the attention
of candid men in the Northern States,
and hopes all the journals will reprint
it. The Memphis Post, as many OF
our readers are aware, lis radical
print, edited by Gen. Eaton, late of the
Federal army.
