EXPERIMENTS.
Experiments have proved the deadly ef-
feet of the fire of the smaller Calling at
ranges up to 1,400 yards, while the la rger
and medium guns gave good results up to
2O70 yards A range of 400 yards approxi-
mates the efficient range of the best field ar
tillery of the present day, and Gatling bat
terry well managed could prevent a field bat
terry from firing a shot if both arms at
tempted TO get into battery at the same
time at 200 10 !. 400 yards from each other
Targets have shown that the fire of the
smaller Calling is capable OF striking bat
terry front at every shot, and six guns would
pour a continuous stream of 5000 musket
balls per minuet into hostile battery. Any
artilleriest will admit that no field battery
could come into action under such fire
From the foregoing summary of the tried
merits of the Calling gun it will be seen
that it ROW stands in the front rank of ma
chine guns and produces greater destruct
iveness than any other fire arm with the
same weight of projectiles

a field arm 1t has also been adopted as an
auxiliary arm by Great Britain. In 1867 it
was adopted by Russia, and In 1871 by Tur-
key and Egypt In 1872 the United States
navy adopted it for shore service, and in 1873
for use in ships tops and on launches; and
in the same year the United States war de-

mounted on hobby between two high
wheels, and moyes his legs In rising and
falling in the Saddle, and the machine
goes along as fast as fast Jrotting
horse. 1t is all the same whether the
machine goes gently over the stones or
moves swiftly on the hard high road,
and the facility with which the strange
steed turns round corners excites the
admiration of all beholders. The in
Yentor believes that his horse will be of
great use to porters for carrying light
loads, and he has confident hopes that it
will be highly appreciated by the nu-
merous classes who are fond of saddle
exercises, but are too poor to buy and
maintain horses of flesh and blood. 1t
is even suggested that the mechanical
horse will make an excellent charger on
the battlefield, as it is an animal that can
neither eat nor die.
