wine gauge and is Il very great improve
mcnt over the gun recently issued to
the North Carolinians. The Jerseys 10Y
have the hest guns i'll camp and the

of the guns they already have. The
chief armorcr, however, tells Il different

are, as Il rule. cleaner than any he has
had to repair, and he has had to repair
twice as many for them as for any 9th
Cr regiment in the camp.
