Xew Flrt-Arnt Important lmirovtments The National Intelligencer describes a setof specimens of fire arras, all of thm new models, invented in New York. The first specimen is a magazine repealing needle gv. it solves the problem of the appli cation of thedischarging needle to revolvers. A cylindrical magaaine containing forty cartridges is attached longitudinally under neath the barrel of the gun. These car trideges are successively fired as fast as the gun can be cocked, and the mechanism is such as to secure a most perfect leading. Ako, a revolving needle gun, without the magaxine, having the advantage over all other revolvers, that it can be used with cartridges. The last gun we saw strikes us as being a must important invention. It is an old United States musket converted into a breech-loading gun, and this is done by such simple and ingenious means, and the gun operates with such facility, that we cannot but anticipate the best result, from it. In all tbe attempts at producing breech-loading guns that have hitherto been made the great difficulty was to keep the sliding sur- laces of the breech and barrel so completely uninjured by tbe combustion of the powder a. to insure uniform nicety of operation. This gun has a contrivance which, effect ing the opening of the breech ba the dit- charje of tht bullet, prevents anr deleterious action from gases on the breech by produc ing an instantaneous draft of fresh air through the barrel and breech. The in ventor claims that the latter improvement possesses great advantages, especially in a military point of view, that it enables men to shoot from fitu to fix time mart rapidly and to obtain a greater range tban with tbe present masket, and that it obviates all danger from premature discharge.
