Trial Of a New Breech-Loader.

A party of gentlemen interested in
firearms, among them United States
Inspector Sinclair and Major McGinnis,
of the Armory, tested at the water-shops
Yesterday afternoon breech-losder
patented by William Morgaustern, New
York mechanic, attached to the manu-
featuring firm of Herman, Boch d Co.,
which introduces new principle in
weapons of this kind, and is said by
experts to comprise their excellencies
and to overcome many OF their disad-
vantages. The essential feature of the
new gun is in the mechanism of the lock,
which entirely does away with the old
fas hionei lock or hammer, and substi-
tua,s in its place an ingenious yet simple
coutrivance, which fires the cartridge
and discharges the shell from its cham
Der with great rapidity and absolute
certainty. This unit lock" as it is
called, is in one piece, and has no CON-
plicated screws or machiBery liable to
get out of order or smbarrass the
operator. There are, besides, other
important features, such as a graded
raised sight fitted upon brackets,
which would seem to increase the
general efficiency of the arm. This in
vention was perfected the present year,
but it has already been tested by the
PrussiaD, Belgian and Austrian Govern
ments, and the official reports of these
trials speak in high terms of the new
breaoh-losdeT, as DO also those ct the
armory here who have seen and exam
ined it. The trial yesterday was gem
orally satisfactory. With the Reming-
ton cartridge, accurate shots were made
at targets two hundred, Eve hundred,
and seven hundred yards distant, and in
quick firing ten shots we're discharged in
twenty seconds and twenty shots in
fifty-two seconds. The inventor claims
that twenty five shots can be fred in
minute with more than ordinary accu-
racy. 1t is unsafe always to predict
from experimental trials the absolute
success of an invention like this, but the
judgment of the military men and
skilled mechanics who have seen its
working is that it has advantages and
excellencies which make it in many re-
spects superior to any breach-loader yet
invented. .-SpringJfeld Republican, De.

stairs interference of well-meaning men,
who, without the responsibility of pub.
licity, direct the tremendous power OF
trades unions. They worried Mr.. Roe
buck out of Sheffield, although | think
he richly deserved it; they have passed
a slight upon Mr.. Reyerdy Johnson, who
certainly dees not. AS for the Reform
League, the uneasiness which that body
has given q certain class of gentlemen
has caused much amusement among
those who have all along known the
amount of their influence over working
nen. We we're perfectly able to hold our
meeting and have our dinner to Mr.
johnson, but we were not able to insure
him against possible annoyance from

UReonstitutionality of the Legal Tender
Act

Act.
The fiat is coming. The paper money
issue of the government, which it de-
clared to be legal tender, ignoring the
old doctrine of gold and silver. will be
declared by the Supreme Court of the
United States as unconstitutional. When
this declaration will be made depends
upon circumstances, for the official an
nouncement will make the present
commercial chaos still more chaotic.
That it will be so announced 10 moral
certainty, aud it may be given to the
country in a few weeks. Stand from under.
Contracts made prior to 1861 and mstur-
ing after the reign of money paper set in,
must be paid 10 gold and silver. Contracts
made subsequent to the passage of the
unconstitutional act, embracing the pay.
ment of moneys in equity, should and
probably will be liquidsted in the kind
of currency which was circulating at the
date of said contract, and which was un-
derstood by all parties at the time to be
a satisfactory equivalent, to be received,
or to be paid. But the very announce
ment of this decision by the Supreme
Court will open up series of the biggest
legal fights as to its bearing Spon CON-
mercial contracts, and of course mort
gagers and the mortgages will have
lively time. Lord help the poor debtor,
for in any event he can reap no benefit
