PARKER's BREEcH-LoADING SHOT GUN

| We call the attention Of sportsmcn in this
vicinity to the card of the Parker Brothers
| of West Meriden, Conn, who are introduce
| ing to the public a new gun Of their own in
venton and manufacture. No gentleman
who follows the absorbing and health giving
| recreation Of shooting, can afford to lac be-
hind modern improvements and use the old
| slow and cumbersome muzzle-loaders. The
revolution that is going on in sporting guns
| follows that of firearms of all grades for the
use Of armies Col. Colts application of the
principle OF breech-loading and revolving
chambers to pistols, was followed by the
Sharp, Burnside and Spencer rifles for the
use Of armies. With the return Of peace, in
vcntors have given their attention to the APP
| plication of Il like principle to guns for sport
ing purposes. And of the many that we
have examined, of American manufacture
we do not hesitate in giving our preference
to the Parker gun
Having received one Of their improved
double-barrelled guns, we are enabled to
give some description Of it, In appearance
it differs scarcely at all from the handsomest
of the old-styled guns. The one we have, Il
II gauge, weighs less than eight pounds. BY
pressing a lever forward Of the guard. the
barrels are thrown up at the breech fur
enough to receive the cartridges. These are
thin brass shells, kept ready loaded, having
a percussion cap affixed in the end They fit
tightly into the brecch which is enlarged 50
that the inside of the shell is flush with the
bore As soon as the shells are inserted, n
single quick motion of the hand brings the
barrels back to place, and a steel bolt shoots
into the breech, holding il firmly in place.
The charge and cap are then out Of reach of
water, and cannot be dampcned. The ham,
mers strike upon steel pins, which are driven
rapidity with which these guns may he load
ed and fired is astonishing, and the success in
a days shooting of course in proportion.
These guns are very strong in all their
parts, and of fine workmanship. Mr. Allard,
of this city, who took apart the one we have,
expressed his great admiration of its work
manship, as well as simplicity and effective
ness. The locks move with that soft yet
strong action peculiar to finished work
while the barrels, especially in their inside
fnish are remarkably beautiful. There are
several breech-loading shot guns in use in
our city, the most costly being that of c. B.
Hazeltine, made by Pape, the celebrated
English gunsmith, at a cost Of $3.50 in gold.
The owner proposes to try its qualities in
Florida in few weeks. A. S. Davis also has
a very excellent gun of the improved pat
tern.
In conclusion, we advise our friends who
are nterestedin good guns, at Il low price, to
send to the Messrs. Parker for 4 descriptive
catalogue.
The eX-rebel ram Atlantic has been sold and gone
to sea from Philadelphia Some of the papers
think he is after the Spanish gunboats.

THE LAST SHIP GONE

.. There is no not single ship afloat that halls from
iotiand The last one was sold the other day.
So says the Press. Prog. Age.
Not ship left !! The magnificent harbor Of
Portland, easy of access, safe and secure
with not ship calling it her home. From
her harbor, railroads stretch their iron arms
to the far interior to grasp the produce for
exportation-but not ship halls from Port
land to reap the harvest of the ocean carry
ing trade. The tide GIBBS and flows at hel
deserted shipyards, the buildings in them
slowly rot, the skilled mechanics cmigrate
the business is dead. Only ten years ago,
just before the country was cursed with the
reign of radicalism, Portland had is, 900
tons of shipping, and built an average Of
eight large vessels year. Now their last
ship is gone,
Foreigners thrive on our folly The red
flag OF England waves from ships at the head
OF every pier in Portland. They bring the
cargoes that supply the merchants of all the
region, and load the long trains of cars on
the railroads. They receive the wheat houl
and general produce of the country, and earn
large profits in carrying it abroad. But Port
land has seen her last ship pass away.

The WHIG's sCARE-CROW.

The Bangor Wing, after everybody else
has seen and acknowledged the flimsiness of
the reputation preteXt, keeps banging away
at the venerable scare-crow, and picking its
old tlint-lock again and again, as though it
was doing battle against a terrible adversary.
1t has kept up this monotonous and foolish
tusiade now for a year, to the derision of its
opponents and the modification of it's friends
The latter must have been more than ord-
narily chagrined to see its terribly lame ar
lce in the issue of Monday, in which it is
obliged To resort to the most grievous mis-
representation to make even the semblance
of an argument. In commenting on the vote
following Mr.. Munger's reputation speech,
of which we give an account elsewhere, the
Wing says
Thirty-nine Democrats failed to vote, at least
half of whom were in their seats at the commence
ment of the roll-ca. SO that it is a minority. after
all OF the Democratic party in the House that has
put itself on record against reputation. The sub
lect walked up deep feeling, which will unqucs-
tionably find vent in warm discussions hereafter.
OF course their Congressional Representatives
fairly exhibit the political views Of the party. A
strong majority of Democratic Congressman are
regulators, and several of those who voted
against reputation are 9 contingently' so. We
trust that effort will be hereafter made to deny
that Democracy means now what it has meant for
the past ten yeals--natonal diShonor.
The Wing has no authority for saying that
half Of the thirty-nine non-voting Democrats
were in their seats. There We're but 125 votes
cast, beng more than 100 short of the full
house, If 80 Democrats failed to vote, where
We're the sixty odd Republicans Are they
regulators, likcwiseo A motion BY Mr..
Brooks. which the Wing conveniently fails to
record, shows the state of the House at the
time. Ii is this. as given in the n Y Her.
aid report
Mr.. Brooks, of \. V. suggested that as a great
many members We're absent on account of the lln-
derstandng that no business would be transacted,
the vote should not be taken till the next meeting
Of the House. when the vote would show full! eX-
preston of opinion
Mr.. Schoteld, (rep.) of Pa, with that objective
view. moved that the House do now adjourn.
The House refused to adjourn, and the vote on
the resolution was aiken by yeas and nays.
This is the important part of the story
which the Wing, as an interested witness,
fails to tell. There was an understanding
that no business would be transacted, and a
luluicu llitii'elS went AWAY. Inc Icpupii-
can majority forced a vote under these cir
cumstances, and the Wing squcals out that
the Democracy favor " national dishonor'-
although but one man voted against the
resoluton-and that one explained that he
was not repudiationist, but would favor it
rather than pay gold for bonds that are OK
pressly made payable in greenbacks!
The Wings readers must have mighty in
different stomachs to be satisfied with such
feed

is a book of $50 pages, containing directions
for Games, Magic Tricks and Sleight OF
Hand, Puzzles, &c Also "Howard's book
of Conundrums and Puns," of 1862 pages, con
tanning the largest and choicest collection ct

A LITTLE CRITICISM.

Says the journal of 10th inst: "a pair OF twins
We're recently born on a Pennsylvania Railroad
train" Does two make a pair, or four Il pair of
twins? CAMDEN
Let us start fairly. and see if Camden"
has himself good foundation Docs two
make" &c. Two is Il plural noun. and
''does' is Il singular verb, so the sentence
runs plump against the ancient rule Of gram
marians. As for the twin question: it ought
to be settled. If the latitude of meaning,
which our correspondent apprchends, had cx-
listed in Bible times, and the patriarch Isaac
had been told that Rebecca had borne a pair
of twins, he would have felt mighty anxious
until he knew the facts. When such chaps
rs Esau and Jacob arc thrust into 4 family,
it makes a mighty difference in the house,
whether there are two or four of them.
Strictly speaking, the phrase ga pair oftwins"
is tautology-but there seems to be q defect
in the language which necessitates its use.
Suppose we had written Twins We're born y
&c-it might be considered possible that
more than one woman is capable Of being
made sick by riding in the cars. We under
stand the necessity Of stating the population
stat istlcs with precision, and should be glad
of a better form of expression. viii our
correspondent write the paragraph himself,
concsely and precisely, as an example?

A BRAVE Boy, The Rockland Free Press
says during the recent gale and snow storm.
the schooner Commonwealth, Captain John
Ellems, lay anchored of in the harbor, load
ed with lime ready for sea. None Of the crew
were on board Tuesday night except boy.
Lewis Buchanan of South Thomaston. aged
perhaps IA years. About midnight, when the
storm was raging most feariully, the vessel
parted both her chains and would undoubted-
ly have been wrecked on the rocks and hedges
near the Battery, had it not been for the re-
markable presence of mind of this brave boy,
who, instead of giving up in despair ran for
ward and with difficulty succeeded in hoist
ing the jib. then boldly seized the helm and
ran the vessel safely ashore on a sandy beach
in small cove below the brick yard The
vessel was but little injured and the cargo
saved. 1t will be remembered that it was
very cold that night and this was done at the
height of one of our severest snow storms
The boy was once washed overheard by the
waves but fortunately seized a piece of rig
cling and saved himself
