The experiment! with bullet proof eoatf aud material which have been conducted here aud abroad have called attention to the fact that mnil proteo Hon did not entirely pac away with the ahelving of the nhield and cmrusn. Many English ofllcera Htill wear a par tial armor when serving ou foroign atit tiont. The commonest and moat usual type of Ukvo protections consists of fine but beautifully tempered single chains, in closed in aoft leather, which run uloug the thonldcr. down tlm outer aide of the arms, and over certuin purts of the body. Theae can either be aewed into a particulur luuic, or they can bo adjusted separately and put 011 like liurucss. Hundreds upon hnndreda of these sets are sold. The most valuable of all chain in connection with aocoutermcnt are those which guurd the lieud, and iu ca?e where the regulation cup or hel met in uot Bufllcieiitly protected in thia way rpeciully uiutle clniius are sewed inside the tame and covered by the lin ing. Only those who have been in actual conflict know how vuluuble all the chains mentioned ure in minimizing the effecta of sword cuts. An regurda pro tection both from sword und bullet the general belief nowadays seems to bo in thoroughly tunned leather, and great quantities are tuudo for officers, the fa vorite pattern said to bo the invention of the lute tiir Richurd Burton beiug tbut which forma a uot too prominent ridge down the center of the chest Muny stories ure told by oflicem of bul lets which have been averted in aoine de gree by these leuther tunics, some of which are lined with woven steel wire. Of coursn none of these things ure suti potted to be an absolute protection, but only a sort of pulliutive. A London gunsmith, who sells u great many chaiu bisly protectors, which lit luiost like uu ordinary vest und are very cxs'iisive, nulla a largo number of them to army men, and ho uot long ago aent a grow, aa many uu ho could get tuudo in tho time, to Japan, where they were qnickly sold. He has made for in dividual officer who huve themselves drawn the design u variety of different patterns of armor. Fiuo flexible chains und leather have entered into ueurly ull of them.
