shall not here ATTEMPT to develop all
the consequences of this invention,
should actual use of the Meigs gun
confirm its present promise. There is one
only which will barely mention, and which
is inevitable; It is, that the European States
must arm anew at an expense of near one
hundred millions, since no nation can, in
this age, and in this respect, permit itself to
be outstripped by another. This is . truly
frightful phantom, especially when we re-
fleet that, even yet We have not reached the
end of the series of destructive inventions.
For already we have glimpses Of coming
fleets of war balloons armed with still more
formidable weapons, charged with still
mora deadly explosives. Whittier we and
the rest of the race are tending, in this di-
rectiop, If we do not soon succeed in snatch
ing ourselves out of this unholy intoxiea-
ton, is clear and sufficiently painful to con-
template"
The,gun is the invention of Capt. Josiah
V. Meigs, son of the Clerk of our Supreme
Court, who, during the war, Organized and
commanded the first colored battery of ar
tillery, and although for several years he
has been absent from this city, he may he
claimed as Washington boy.

THE MEIG1 fanM

Oar readers are aware that this weapon
has been heretofore, more than Cnce, no
ticed in these columns. Now we have from
Vienna papers notices of the gun, which we
lay before our readers in TRANSACTIONS by q
well-knnwn memb Der of the bar of this city,
DR.. Frederick Schmidt. The first is from
an article entitled "Austellungs Chronik, 4"
Of Aug. 2, published in the lnterndtionGle
Austeltungs Zeitung, of Aug. 8. IL is as
follows: a..
aA REMARKABLE WEAPoN.-During a
visit OF the military committees to the
American section, one Of the exhibitors
showed gun which excited the surprise
and establishment of all members of the
commission. This weapon has in its stock
a magazine OF fifty adjusted cartridges; the
attachment Of the magazine il the chamber
is quite simple, being fastened thereto by
means of three screws, and herce the re-
loading OF chamber can be effected simply
and quickly. The manipulation consists in
forward and backward motions of small
slide; the forward motion conducts the
Cartridge Into the barrel and admits at the
same Instant, by simple mechanism, of
It's discharge; the backward motion throws
out the empty case Of tho cartridge. The
oahoiibS 10 40 Cacul lcdTU6u aS IL Is RAPID
SO that without Withdrawing the gun from
the shoulder 80 and even more shots can be
fred per minute. The inventor, moreover.
convinced the commission that the object
being not accurate but quick firing upon
masses, The gun can be fred at the rate of a
shot second"

FrlghtfuI Ravages of the scOurge

Frightful RaVages of the Scourge.
Forty Deaths Saturday-MOney Con.
tributIOns from Various Cities-AII
she Catholics I'm the United States
Appealed 60. F ... q i
Special to the Louisville Courier journal.
MEMPHIS, Oct. At is beyond the pow
or of the pen TO describe tonight the terri
bic suffering and the fearful ravages of the
scouTge. Instead of improving, those who
have been attacked with the scourge during
the last four or five days and termed new
cases, are sinking very rapidly, and instan-
ces are not unfrequeut where they have
di- d within twenty four hours after the
first symptoms, in many cases death being
hastebed of course by fright. Gases have
occurred, too, where ueath has ensued in
Is hours, and team now safely be ssid that
the scourge is an epidemic, and of the most
fearful character.
A HEARTRENDING PICTURE.
In Pinch this evening the situation is
heartrending; hundreds of the poorer classes
arelying uncared for, and dying for want
of attention. In many houses there snd in
Front Street down as far as the city build
ings, your correspondent hos seen from one
to four dead bodies awaiting interment in
the potter's field by the country undertaken,
who alone to-day reports 80 interments,
The same may be said Of Happy Hollow;
and for the first time the deaths In the
aouthern part of the city to-day have ex-
ceeded five, showing that the fever has also
planted itself in thai locality, the msjori.y
of the deaths being reported along or in
close proximity TO the bayou that extends
through that part of the town in the alleys
in North Memphis, and in the shanties
along the river bank just above Jefferson
Street.
FORTY DEATHS SATURDAY AT LEAST.
A number of death have been reported
since the mortusry report which follows
this was made out, and the lie st estimate
that can be made of the deaths from the
fever to-day, based upon personal observa-
ton and information ON every part of the
CITY, is 40, and that only includes paupers
and those for whom collins have been sp-
piled for at the undertakers'. God only
knows how many there are at this moment
lying dead in abandoned houses and shan.
ties in the infected localities; and owing to
the inability Of the Towards to keep up
their full force of visiting members, the
story will not be told until the bodies be-
come so decomposed that the stencil from
them will attract attention to the buildings
in which they are lying. I'D ~ -s--
THIRTY NEW CASES IN ONE WARD.
In Chelsea tonight there are over thirty
new cases. In one or two instances entire
families are down with it, and neither love
nor money will obtain the slightest atten-
ton, except from our noble physicians, who
are all working night and day, and in ninety
cases out Of hundred without the slightest
prospect Of remuneration. There have
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1873-10-07

been cases whers death has ensued In TWEEN
| II hours afier the first attack; and in houses
where the families are all down, there will
not, perhaps, tomorrow night or Monday
morning be one left to tell the tale of their
suferings.
AID FURNISHED BY TELEGRAPH.
Hundreds and almost Thousands of tele-
Grams have been received here by the banks
and business firms, contributing aid in
sums Of from $40 to $1,000. Chicago, s..
Louis, Louisville, Cincinnati, Madison,
Ind; Pittsburg, Omaha, Providence, Low
eli, Boston, New York, and in fact almost
allthe cities la the West, North, South and
East are represented in the list who have
in this great hour Of need come nebly for
ward 70 assist the poor through the Howard
Association.
Every dollar Will be needed, as there are
tonight fully three thousand five hundred
poor who look to the Howard Association
for the necessities of life, aud are furnished
by them day by day therewi'b, and this
daily supply Of food must be continued per-
haps for weeks. Even after the scourge has
spent its force, there will bs scores Of Wild
ows and orphans to provide for during the
winter months, and that the Towards will
undertake, with such other assistance as
they may receive. The total contributions
tonight from this city and all other points
will reach rearly ten Thousand dollars. OF
this amount the the guests of the Gait
House and Mr.. E. NJ. Epperson, wealthy
citizen of this place, have subscribed $500
and $50; and many other donations are re-
ported from individuals at Louisville, for
which each donor has the thanks of every
poor man, woman or child here.
NO BUSINESS.
The streets were. almost deserted this
sfternoon.an should the scourge continne,
but little win be done Monday in business
circles.
REFUGEES STRUCK DOWN.
learn tonight that very many Of those
who have left the city during the past few
days, and in fact, up to last night, for the
country towns within Q radius of fifty or
eeventy-fve miles, are now down with
fever, and are telegrsphing for nurses and
physicians; but none can be spared, conse-
quently many will die.
II APPEAL TO ALL CATHOLICS.
Father Kelly tonight received a telegram
from the Bishop to issue an appeal to all
Catholic parishes in the United States for
sid. f
MORE NURSES ARRIVED.
Twenty nurses arrived tonight from
New Orleans, and six more have been tele-
grsphed for. Seven or eight are expected
from NstcheZ tomorrow.
BOARD OF HEALTH ESTABLISHED.
At meeting of the City Council to-day
an ordinance was passed creating new
board Of health, vested with plenary power
to mske all rules and orders necessary for q
thorough disaffsction Of the city, for the
abatement of nuisances, and for the regula-
ton of the requisite sanitary measures.
THE MUNICIPAL APPROPRIATION.
In order to render the recent appropria-
ton by the City Council available for the
relief of the poor, additional action was
taken in this respect, and the Mayor fully
authorized to negotiate for the sum previ-
ously voted.

New Life for the Lap.uid.

Perfect health is vouchsafed to few. Probably
ninety PEOPLE out of every hundred who call
themselves healthy have their "turns" of Ian
guor, exhaustion, depression of spirits and bodi-
ly pain. At these times wineglassful of Hos
tetJer's Stomach Bitters is as refreshing as the
"shadow Of a rock in a weary land" 1t invigo-
rates and rests the system and cheers the mind.
The effect of the Bitters in cases of nervous de-
bility, produced either by undue physical exer-
ton, over-study, intense anxiety, any other
cause, is wonderfully reviving and invigorating.
In fact, this healthful vegetable restorative pos
sesses medicinal properties which entitle it to
the rank Of an article Of prime necessity, and il
should be kept on hand in every dwelling, and
promptly taken as a remedy for all the minor
ailments as well as for more serious complaints

A pleasant, middle-aged lady Of this city,
tells the following concerning her young
days: At one time che was receiving at
tentions from an understood school boy,
which attentions were not as agreeable as
they might have been. One day her youth
full lover sent q message by the lady's little
brother, to the effect that he would be hap
py to take her out riding. Meeting the
bro her soon after, the youth inquired:
"Willie, did you tell your sister what told
you TOP" "Oh, yes" replied Willie. "Well,
what did she say?" 'She said she wished
to goodness that little Stanley would quit
troublin' herr responded Willie, with that
charming csndor characteristic of children.

60 AVID IEARN A TRADE.

We publish below Will s. Hays latest
song, for the good it ought to do-hopiDg
young ladiesswill learn to sing it for the ben
eft OF such eallants as talk about marriage
without any visible means Of support.
III sing little song tonight,
And ev'ry word is true,
You'll find that every line Is meant,
Young gentleman, for you'll
I've no intention to offend,
In what is sung or said
The sum and substance OF 1t Is,
To 20 and learn trade.
CHORUS.
The looming man" is he who lives
To see his fortune made,
Whom ev'ry body viii respect,
Because he learned trade.
Your education may be good
But time Is fitting by,
Instead of working don't be fooled;
The old man may not die;
And II he should, the chances are,
His win may be mislaid. ---
Or you cut off without a cent,
So go and learn q trade
The country's full of "nice young men,"
Who from their duty shirk,
Who think 'twould crush their family pride ;
If you should go to work;
Take off your coat, lyOur father did,
And find some honest maid,
Who'll help you make your fortune, when
You've learned an honest trade.
Be temperate in all you do,
Be faithful to your "boss," az.
You'll find the more you do for him,
Will never prove loss,
You'll find If fifty years nom now.
When fame and fortunes made,
The best step that you ever took,
Was when you learned a trade.
