A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE FREEMAN
TIE present number of the FREEMAN
brings the eleUenh volume Of its existence
IN A close, and a few words with our read
ers on so interesting an event in its history
will not be ont of place. During the peri
cd that the FREEMAN has been under our
control we have faithfully devoted to its
columns our undivided time and attention
in order to make it acceptable to our sub
snribers, and we tiatter ourself that our
efforts have not been III vain. The rela-
tions existing between US and our patrons
have been pleasant and harmonious, espe-
eially with that large number of them who
have always promptly furnished US with
IIrbe sinews of war" What ought we to
cav. however, of that other class who
adopt the theory that printing office is a
self-sustaining institution, and that if an
editor can't afford to furnish his paper for
at least three years without expecting or
asking TO be paid for it, he ought to sell
out to some more enterprising genius who
can. man who will take a newspaper
for a number Of years and neglect or re-
fuse to pay for it, must certainly be a prac-
tical believer in the new doctrine preached
tv Henry Ward Beecher, and is fit for
treason, stratagems and spoil. 1t is pro-
found mystery how man can live and be
happy who will not subscribe for his own
county paper q biuR'c hutnoel OF which
will often prove of more value to him than
twice the amount necessary to secure j.
In the northern portion Of Cambr ia county,
which is thoroughly Democratic, and where
the FREEMAN has its largest circulation,
we ought at least to have three hundred
paving subscribers added to onr list for the
eom;ng volume. We would like to enlarge
Cur paper and otherwise improve it, and
will do so just rs soon as the revenues of
the office will Justify the venture but in
,he meantime we have made the terms for
this year SO reasonable that every Demo
crat can afford to comply with them. If
iLey will do SO, and will personally interest
themselves in increasing Our subscription
list to what il should be in SO strong and
reliable Democratic county as Cambria,
we pr0mise them that we will make ihe
FHKEMAN for 1878 better and more use
ful paper than it has ever been heretofore.

Salmon in the Connecticut.

The Connecticut river fishermen are quite
excited over the advent Of salmon into the
river. ! watched party of them at hauling a
seine at Old Lyme Saturday night, and the
eagerness with which they inspected its CON
tents when they hauled in. was like that of a
the moment, the handsome catch of shad they
had made, the owner of the seine was greatly
delighted to find ten pound salmon in his
net net, and at once proceeded to put on all the
fishermen. And well ne might, for his one
salmon was worth more than all the shad
caught In the haul, as they have been selling
ever, cannot long continue as Mr.. Silloway,
the genial clerk of the Granite State, tells me
that since the Kennebec salmon are Begin
ming to appear in York, the dealers who came
connecticut river salmon are reducing their
former high offers, and that 40 cents will soon
be their maximum bid The fishermen claim,
however, that the Connecticut river salmon is
so much superior to other salmon as its Shad
to other shad, and hence hope for a contin-
uance Of high prices: So far the catching of
them them Is 81, lottery in which but few draw
If the fish continue to be caught as now, they
will soon disappear altogether, and all the
time and money expended in raising them
Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire
will have right to claim that they have been
swindled by Connecticut, who fails to protect
the fish that they united with 1t in producing
To this the Connecticut river fishermen reply,
with how much truth know not, that they
always find the salmon dead in the net, and
hence that it would be useless to return it to
the river, and, as OF course they cannot run
not so as to catch Shad and skip the salmon,
they are not to blame. My own opinion is
that, as in case OF the fish pounds at the mouth
resisted, and that nothing. but rigid iegisla-
ton as to the methods and hours of fishing
will ever serve to protect either salmon or
shad.-[HarJord corr Springfield Repubt-

The Employment Of Guu.Cottou 4,
Warfare.

According to our Woolwich correspondent
another use has been found for gun cotton i'm
warfare. Inc novel explosive is to be employed
for disabling guns of the enemy. 1t is to take
The place, in fact, OF the spike and the armor
er'S hammer. A slab of n-cotton, simply
laid upon the mnZZle of a gun and detonated,
so INJURIES ana dlStorts the weapon as TO rem
der il prac ically useless for firing, while i'm the
case OF muZZle- loader il at once precludes
any attempt to load the gun. The old plan ii
may be remembered, OF rendering an enemy s
guns useless after storming battery was to
spike them by driving an armorer's nail into
the vent or touch-hoIe, and then, in the event
OF the attacking party being driven out of the
battery again, or retiring. the weapons could
not De used against them-at any rate for a
time. The rapid inluring of gun by means of
gun.cotton in the way now suggested will pre-
vent the cannon ever being employed again ;
put thlSlS after all, a questionable advantage,

out OF the spike, so also may the stormIng

the position. This is not the first application

body OF men, termed Cavalry Pioneers, first
created by the AuStrianS, and now adopted in
the British army ARE tOemploy charges of gun
cotton in a similar way for breaking railway
lines and destroying bridges quickly The
trooper, mounted on a strong and rapid horse,
Is provided with belt containing a few pounds
o. compressed gun cotton. and on arriving at
railway he diSmountS and places a charge
npon one OF the rails. The gun cotton is de
tOnated with fuse, and the result is thai half
yard OF metal is seen flying over the next
hedge. Probably not more than sixty seconds
are necessary to work the mischief, but the
man is up and away before the explosion can
take place. In the case of bridges the work is
naturally OF longer duration, but two or three
