His original design, we believe, was to prospect in tho ricinity f the Sno tpmlmoo only, bat it seems that he extend ed his search to the Wocnatche. We did not lcnrn the result of his explorations, for titer than that the indications were tv tremely favorable on tho Weenatche, but the water was too high to work. Enough . has transpired, however, to confirm the ac counts published last venr bv Cant. Rob ertson ond others respecting thnt region. Mr. Cody communicated his discoveries to only one or two confidential friends, and left ngniu on Monday, accompanied by Mr. Rabbeson, with a large supply of prou ions.

The Sec retary of War is soon to order a new trial of ordnance at Fortress Monroe. ' Several new guns, shells, &c., are to be tried nnder the observation of a suitable board of offi- ; cers. Among other guns, the rifle-cannoa , invented by ex-Senator Charles T. J.mei, is to be experimented with. The experi- , ments with this new arm at Governor".

It is said that th. .Tom, .hot u& gun lias a greater range than the Arm strong gun, and is free from some of the ob jections to that gun. It is claimed, also, by some, to excel the Xapolcon gun. H ; improvement consists chiefly in thesboti : which, at the moment of explosion, 'at panded by the gases, so as to fill, without abrading, the grooves of the rifle-gun.
