EXPERIMENT WITH A MITTRA1LLE

EXPERIMENT WITH A MITTRAILLE-
uRE AND A JAcKAss.-An English pa
per says: 1t is in contemplation to mount
mitrailleu-es on tho backs Of camels,
and work them in that novel position.
1t is almost needless to say that the ex.
pertinent has been tried in England; for
what exerimcnts have We not tried ! But
camels in England are not readily OBJ
tainable, and the Ordinance Committee
therefore selected one of those jaded
old asses which form SO common fea-
lure in the landscape at Firth and
Woolwich The animal quietly permit.
ted Itself to DO used in the service of
science till the critical moment. The
weapon on its back had been loaded
and pointed at the butts, when it sud-
denly occurred to ouc of the committee
that the pulling Of the lanyard might
disturb the aim It was, therefore,
suggested that the discharge should be
effected with Il lighted fuse. But the
unpleasant fizz Of tie latter appliance
was too much even for the patience Of a
donkey. The creature no sooner heard
the unusual sound than he sent out his
heels, and turning completely round,
pointod the mittrailleuse among the
members of the committee The panic
which followed can be better imagined
than described, but fortunately every,
body got out Of harms way, and when
tho discharge took place the wrctchel
ass turned complete somersault. AT,
ter such contreiemps we shall sareIy
hear no more about battalion cf camel

CHARLES WHITTLESEY,
UNITED STATES COMMISSIONER,
AND COUNSELLOR IN
BANKR U PTCY.

Congress having just amended the Bankrupt
law so that nearly all parties can be discharged
from their debts unobstructed by tho fifty per
cent clause, so-caled, another opportunity offers
to secure the benefits of this most effective and
permanent measure of relief. The above-named
will make bankrupt business a specially; will
procure discharges on the most moderate terms,
and transact al business in that line at prices
which cannot fail to be satisfactory. Being Uni
ted States Commissioner he will endeavor to visit
the different counties on court days. and thus
save parties the trouble and expense of several
trips to Alexandria in beginning and proceeding
with their cases Discharges can be obtained
here before Register Hill as promptly as in Rich
mond or elsewhere, and at much less expense to
parties 1t may be added that the Bankrupt act,
in connection with the Homestead exemption,
which it is now believed will be secured to the
bankrupt under the bankrupt law, is the only real
relief now offered to parties struggling in the
hopeless bondage Of old debts. Address person
