Siege Gums of Wire.

From tie London Daily Telegraph.
Siege guns built OF wire are the newest
description of ordnance for the national
service. A very tough steel wire is used,
having breaking strength of 100 tons to
the square inch which is wound over a
steel tube as tape may be wound on a
reel, being frequently fastened of to Sc
cure its cohesion, and so neatly put to-
gether as to look like solid metal. An eX-
perimental hOwitzer has been made
upon this principle, and passed salts
factory proof at the Royal arsenal. IL
has calibre Of 10 inches, but weighs
only about 10 hundred weight In its
trial this howitzer threw a shell Of 800
pounds with charge OF % pounds,
and attained velocity OF 1000 feet per
seoond-a result which may be compared
with two guns of a similar weight which
are at present in the service. One Of
these is the S-inch howitzeT, which fires a
shell OF just half the weight-viz, 1870
pOunds-with a velocity Of $50 feet, and
the other is the 100-pOunder gun Of &c
calibre, which, with its light shot OF 100
pounds, manages TO reach velocity OF
1890 feet per second. The trial weapon
seems In no way impaired by the strain to
which it has been subjected.

from beg young. A stink or Yearling deer
WIN run up and down and over the hills
\ in contrary, and to the hunter a very
Disgusting manner, and the hunter al
ways knows when he is after a stink. Old
deer, however will follow the ridges or
long stretches, and if it he buck with
fpuheadso t antlers he will seek as far as
POSSIBLE the open woods, and II they have
been burned over it is still the better tor
hlm, as there are fewer bushes TO impede
or to entangle his horns; and as his scent
is more f9,HlS probably he wishes 10 avoid
leaving II on the bushes, which makes it
80 much easier for the dogs to follow by
I the scents and this known habit makes
him an easieE victim than the faWn or
stink, which has no regular habits.
But their leaping power is probably
more remarkable than their fleetness OF
foot. have seen full-grOwn deer in
run leap with apparent ease a stake-and-
rldered fence that must have been more
than feet in perpendicular height, and
their leap is not in 3 seesAw movement
like horse, but the whole body goes over
on level, aud he lights on all four Of his
feet, while a horse rears on his hind feet and
raises these up as his fore feet 20 down on
the other side. AS is well known, these
animals shed their horns ESQ called J
every year, generally In the month of
January or February, and new set
begins to terminate about March, and by
july or August they are full grown and
generally have an additional prong or
spike. These are at first covered with a
rough, VelVety skin, and the horns or horn
is soft. But it soon begins to dry and
harden and the velvet he rubs off against
bushes or gravelly banks, and by Septem-
Der il is as hard as bone, when Orchard
is himself again." Soon after the running
season begins and their necks swell and
they become lean. At these seasons they
are sometimes belligerent, particularly If
wounded or brought to bay, and then,
with his hair rolled forward by the NOV
lux OF his skin and a cleaning eye spark
ling with defiance, he is formidable
antagonist with his horns and feet, which
he manipulates in very energetic and
persevering manner.
These animals, at an early day, were
successfully hunted without dogs. But
the most destructive way is to track them
in the snow which, after it has fallen for
few days, freezes over with crust of
ice. In running over this their hOOfS
break through, and the sharp edges of the
ice soon so far disables them that they be-
comes an easy prey 10 the hunters bullet.
When caught very young they are easily
petted, and | have heard it said that when
they are lost from their mother they will
follow man If they happen to see him.
But | would advise the reader not to put
too much confidence in all he hears about
hunting, as hunters, like fishermen, are
not over sensitive on questions of vera
CITY.
The deer is not as long a wiuded animal
as the fox. and perhaps from four to six
hours continuous running is as long as a
deer could hold his speed, while | am sure
l have known Reynard to run l2hOurs be-
fore he went to bis den; but the deer is
immensely his superior in fieetness.

former glory. The election OF a Demo-
cratic President has a tendency to make
these things harder to get, and II it WAS
not for the civil service law we would
soon not be able to get any. But there
are still many rare antique pieces to be
found scattered here and there, some in
the possession OF negroes and some held
by members of the good old families who,
in their struggle with adversely, have
ceased to attach any value to things Of
this sort, or have learned their value only
to offer them in the market.
Here have letter from member OF
the Lee family, of Virginia, in reference
to very old table, with rich Mosaic top,
which they would like to sell. Judge it
is very rare thing. 1t cost $500, they
say, when bought many, many years ago
by some of their ancestors. Virginia is
rich in things of this kind, but, as | have
said, they are so scattered and SO little
valued that il takes considerable pros
pecting to find them. This is an of sea-
son for selling. Folks don't buy in hot
weather, and we don't have such a fine
collection ON hand. We keep an eye
about us now, and In tae fall have some

crowned Corinthian columns, was built
over 800 years ago to hold the Valuables
of some old Masonic lodge in Germany.
1t probably held some curious secrets of
those days. All the locks and hinges you

dealer lett him to answer the questions Of

THE AWFUL PILOT SNAKE.
Unpleasant Experiences of a Few WOr-
thy New Workers.
7rom a. ~ York va


From the Neoo York Worgd.
PORT JERvIs, July PA man named
Gottlieb, while fishing in the Delaware
river at Sparrowbush, two miles above
this village, on Wednesday, felt pecu-
liar sensation in his right lower limb, aud
taking a hasty look in that direction he
was terrified to see pilot snake hanging
suspended from the calf of his leg.
Instantly realizing the deadly ma
ture of pilot snakes bite, espe-
ciallY at this time of year, it was only
the work of a few seconds to shake Off the
deadly serpent and dispatch it. He then
stripped the limb of the heavy wooden
sock in which it was incased, and
squeezed out as much blood as possible.
He then baHdaged the limb above the
wound and hurried to this village, where
surgeon cauterized the bite and gave
the suffering man the usual reme-
dies. Although the man was deathly
sick, the limb did not swell much,
and the only thing to show the bite was
the disc0loration aud the Imprint of the
reptiles teeth. The man will no doubt
recover, although he has suffered intense
ly, the doctor giving it as his opinion that
the heavy wooden sock covering the foot
absorbed the poison, and but little, If any,
by pilots, at this season especially, sell
dom recover. A peculiar incident is told
OF a gentleman, highly connected. and
now resident of Middletown, who
forty years ago was bitten by pilot.
At the time in question the gentle
man was visiting with friend near New
burg, and both went out hunting. They
became separated during the days hunt.
and the friend, along in the afternoon,
was unfortunate enough to be bitten by
one of those deadly reptiles in the calf of
the leg. He had heard that the bites OF
pilots we're exceedingly dangerous, and he
at once applied pOultice of wet tobacco
to the wound, bandaged the limb above
the bite, and hiring a horse and wagon Of
farmer was driven rapidly to
Newburg, where he placed himself
in care of celebrated surgeon
there, who cut out large portion OF the
flesh surrounding the wound. The
weather was excessively hot at the time,
and the man suffered untold agonies for
many weeks. He, however, recovered
from the effects of the bite, but each year,
upon the anniversary Of the experience
with the pilot, the limb grows disc0lored
and becomes partially numb. This is
fact that can be demonstrated and vouched
for by many friends of the gentleman.
The farmers living near Denton aud IN
that immediate Vicinity known as the
''PilOt Meadows" each year lost valuable
cattle bitten by these reptiles. They seem
TO abound in that locality, and although
several well-Organized attempts have been
made to clean them out they still each
year 20 on with the deadly slaughter APP
parently as vigorous as ever.
