beseei.ssarng Cannon.

The breechloading cannon were
among the earliest used. We find
them on English and other ships as
early as the last quarter of the four
teenth century, and therefore much
before the time of the buccaneers.
The cannon was a mere tube, bound
with heavy iron rings, and was load
ed by the insertion OF the Ngonne
chamber" an iron pan containing
the charge. which fitted into and
closed the breech. These guns were
very clumsy affairs in comparison
with the ,odern breechloader, but
the principle uas the same.

Notice to u. G. VS.,

In this issue of the COURIER
appears an invitation to the U. c.
V.'s, by the U. D. C's of this
place, to meet with them June 8
to celebrate the anniversary of
the birth of President Jefferson

In.as-much as we have fore.
fieted our charter there is no one
to accept the above mentioned
generous invitation unless our
old members meet and perfect a
temporary organic alton looking
to a reorganization of our en-
campment, as we have intended.
and as in duty bound we ought
to do.
After consultation with as
many as we could see Of the old
membership we feel authorized
to call q meeting of the former
members of the General Ster.

name of the thousands of noble
men who died on the fields of
battle and the thousands of 9th.
ers who, though suffering with
hunger and whose naked feet
sometimes marked the frozen
ground with blood, yet followed
our noble Washington to final
victory, let US not prove our.
selves 90 unworthy as to surren.
der now to q class OF anarchists
who eeem determined to rule this
country by the corrupting inflI-
ence OF rum.
Surely men who do not respect
laws when they are made have no
right to take part in making laws
to govern those who do, and yet
those men not only go to the
polls and vote, but use the cor.
rupting influence of liquor to
control other votes.
Not satisfied, this red-faced
bankers and brewers crowd 60
into our Legislative talls and talk
about great fortunes invested in
business, seeming to think that
they had accomplished great
things, while true greatness con.
sists in doing great things for the
benefit and happiness of all con-
cerned.
The accumulation of this fabu.
lous amount of wealth has
brought thousands of men to ruin
and poverty and finally dropped
them into drunkards' graves.
Would to God I could portray
the untold amount of woe, mis-.
cry, suffering and distress of the
thousands of heart-broken wo.
men and children, who had q
right to be happy, but have lived
in poverty that these men might
accumulate these fortunes. There
is no end to what might be said,
but will close by asking all who
read this to consider their obi.
cation and responsibility to their
families, their country and their
God, and then dc that which
their conscience tells them is
right. JAMES F. SMITH.
