q New York. June 23.-Col. Humbert,
"a Trench artillery officer, has invent
ed, according to the Paris correspond
sent of the Tribune, an apparatus
which, applied to rifle or to rapid
firing cannon, completely suppresses
the flash, sound and smoke, even of
black gunpowder. Col. Humbert says:
ST have succeeded in converting the
explosive powder which has been
known for centuries into a motor
power giving impulse to projectiles
from rifles and cannons without re-
port, without smoke, without flash,
without recoil and without any dimi-
mutton of force or effect. The military
authorities here attach supreme inn
portance to this discovery, which they
consider will bring bout complete
revolution in the methods of warfare.
