The fo1owing DESCRIPTION Of the bombs,
which have been eeizsd, Is Curious: Esch one
Is divided perpendicolazly into two hslvas
Which, when united form figure somewhat rr-
semtsng thick cake with 4 holein the centre,
exterior diameter Is Ave and = quarter inches,
and the thickness Of the metal Is about three
eighths OF an mch- The upper aud lower cayi-
ties are ribbed inside and pierced With eighteen
holes to which can BE- adapted nipples and
caps, OF nails. with the heads inside. In
those seized tha lstter plan has been

tubes: . quarter-of an inch in di7mster aud
four inches N length, to be filed with pi1ate
Of potash or fnlminatiug powder. At tbs top
Is ring TO which IS attached handle Of \
triangular shape, which not only facilitates the
carTiage Of this mutderous instrument, but
furnishes sort OF sling to favor its projee-
ton. To anyone conversant with mechanics
or firearms, this invention Of 1870 viii ap-

Everything tends to the belief that tho
intention ot the cousprators VAS to launch
these mieaiyes from An uppaz window: Tic
amount of ezplosiTa material which they ara
each capable Of containing is sufficient to
yards around, and the forro with which the
fragments wou1d be discharged is sufficient to
Kill instant1neouAlyt the person WIS struck
On the head, chest, or stomach and to break

eellent quality and OF the third fusion, that is
to say,a casting from metal already previously
refined. The Pro1ectlo had evidently been in
vented by . clever mechanician, asaisted by
an able able chemist 4 founder, turner, and
tinishe1, for tho final part OF tho work, includ-
ing the union Of the two portions, has been ex-
ecuted BY persons having only inferior tools
and not Understanding the working OF metals.
The man who had these bombs III his keeping
is named Roussel It was on. Friday night
that the police came to arrest him Imme-
diate1y on finding himself in the hands OF the
agents he began to cry out, a Help, help,

these cries a considerable number Of persons
ran up and threw themselves upon the police
fosts, were obliged to yield, and the prisoner
took flight.
