GREAT GUN.-The Fraser SI-ton gun,
made at Woolwich arsenal, England, is the
latest sensation in modern arms manufac-
ture. The gun is a modification OF the Arm
strong coil system. 1t is q feet long, bore "a
feet In length, primary calibre 14k inches,
afterwards TO be made 10 inches. Two hum
dred and forty pounds OF powder are con-
sumed at a charge-the largest charge ever
hred from cannon-and projectiles OF about
1,25S pounds. The muZZle velocity ranged
FROM about 400 feet per second to l. $50. IL
is supposed that the new gun would proba-
bly, carry a half-ton shot seven or eight miles;
but though there are already guns which can
carry five or six miles, something over two
poses.

wines, beer and malt liquors cannot be pre-
vented by human laws, and that the legal
enactments in that direction should look
toward the regulation OF their sale, and pro-
