ARMS IN USE AT BETHEL.

ARMS IN USE AT BETHEL.
In studying the battle OF Bethel. the
fact must not be lost sight OF that the
weapons used were different from those
of the present day. Otherwise we should
be unable to comprehend the statement
in General Piercc's report that he form
ed his line of battle. apparently with a
sense Of security, al only 500 PAGES from
our works, or the statement in Major
Randolph s report that the advance guard
Of the enemy remained for ten or fifteen
minutes at a distance OF about six hun
dred Yards in front of our main battery
before FIRE was opened upon them.
Although that was less than forty
years ago, it is a fact that the theory Of
the instantaneous explosion OF gunpowd
er still prevailed: Armstrong had not in
vented his gun jackets OF wrought iron
coils: and the rifed PARROT which play
cd such an important part in the artillery
ire at Bethel was merely east iron. The
small arms which were used with such
deadly effect by Companies a, b G, G
and II. of the North Carolina regiment,
were either smooth bore Springfield mus
kets carrying a round ball weighing an
ounce. or Buck and ball. or they We're
rifles that carried round bullet quite
as innocent as the musket ball Of pointed
tips ard hollow coned bases. IT is true
that French chasseurs were armed with
a rifle throwing an elongated bah with
hollow coned base as far back ms 1910
or thereabouts, and that Captain Mimic
had improved this by adding an iron
cup to fit into the cone. and that the
English had substituted Il wooden plug
for Mines cup i'll their Enfield rifle OF
1850. But we are not military people,
and in peace. have rarely if ever, as
government, kept abreast of the other
civilized nations in improved arms
though teaching them many lessons du-
ring war; There is no reason to- believe
that at the outbreak OF the war of 81
the stock OF arms owned by the United
States was different at any of their ar
senlls from those found in the Fayette-
vile arsenal, which were of the kind re-
ferred to above.

A very common practice among rail-
road officials is the refusal to furnish
information regarding delayed trains.
On most roads 1t is next to impossible
to learn anything definite as to move
ment or probable arrival or departure
Of such trains, particularly when there
has been q wreck on the road. The
public have a right to know, and the
railroads have no right to withhold
such data as may be obtainable. 1t is
probable that should some aggrieved
party bring suit for damages arising
from anxiety or unnecessary delay the
railroads would be held responsible
and made to pay quite literally.
