loaded at the breech, which receives the cartridge by an operation not unlike the opening of :1 pair of scissors, and with nearly the same facility. It carriesa ball with great precision and force; it is not complicated in its construction, is easily cleaned, and suffers no injury from damp weather. These peculiarities of the Sharp riﬂe renders its use especially convenient for mounted men. The small carabine now used by the United States’ dragoons, throws a ball with deadly accuracy from‘ a quarter to halfa mile. The Courier, from which we gather these facts, says:—

“ The small pocket pistols are calculated to throw a Minnie ball one hundred yards; a cavalry pistol with a range of five hun- dred yards; a riﬂe suitable for infantry with a range ofone mile; and a large gun will throw a two ounce or a small shell one mile and it half, or as far as a man or horse can be seen to advantage. It is claimed for this latter weapon, that it will set on ﬁre a house or a ship at a distance of nearly two miles, and prevent the use of ﬁeld artillery by killing the horses before the guns are brought in good range.

The owners of this riﬂe reckon that, in the hands of men well drilled to its use,

well :~:npplic(l with these border ruiliun paciﬁcators, which have effectually pre- vented, for it time at least, a civil war in Kz1nsns.—Boslon Journal.

DEATH or A MlSh’.R—LN HEIR WANTED.

The well known niiser, John Herr man, is citizen of this lace, died very sud only on Friday night of net week. The deceased was a. rman, who by some means had amassed a handsome fortune which we have heard vari- ously estimated at from twenty-ﬁve to ﬁfty thousand dollars , but, unfortunately for the ublic, as well as himself, he belonged to the owest do of misors. Of his history, place

of nativity, or friends, nothing is known, and tiny allusion to these matters, even by his most intimate friends, always exas crated him. He leaves, so far as at resent is nown. no one to inherit his estate, w ich will, in all probability, escheat to the State. 0 will has yet been dis- covered, and it is not likely he left any. The manner of life and parismonious habits of the deceased are almost incredible. For the last sixteen years he has constantly worn the same blue, linsey-wcolsey wammis and pantaloous, carefully run or darned all over with strcn thread, so as to prevent the possibility of wearing out, ‘except on some im rtant occa- sions, such as land sales or something of that nature, when the gave place to a suit of black velvet. that he hadoften boasted had served him faithfully for forty years. He contracted the disease of which he died by walking over the bad roads, during the most inclement weather of the season, all the way to Putinan and Henry counties, to pay his taxes on the land he owned there, without suﬂicieut clothing to protect him from the cold. In fact, we are informed that he scarcely over vrorea shirt or under r- ment, and that the one he had on when he died had not been changed for over three months.- It is related of him that but a short time since, notwithstanding the piles of 1d and silver he had hoarded awa , he actual y carried an old horse shoe he ha picked ujaboutto the shops. till he succeeded in selling it for half a dime. —Uppcr Sondusky Vimhrator. ——-—ooo——
