Out people like Lowlow, and he will always have a hearty! welcome here. The principal features of the performance are the wonderful Aahton Brothera, whose feats as lea pert and acrobatahave; never been, equaled here, and won for them much applause; the three performing elepbsh s, who are managed Jby young John Robinson! axd Mr. King, and the den of performing lions. 1 , Tbe bareback riding by tbe lady rider Is superb, but the feats of Mr. George Holland i hare never been equaled here,: not even by I Bam.

According to the Katicihal Zatitna the new Prussian gun is a repeal ine eun. capable of firing twelve shots per twentytfour seconds, after which it mayi)e ueed like'any ordinary gun of one shot. This result has been ob tained by a store chamber holding cartridges made of sheet-iron, weighing 850 grammes and with a capacity of eleven cartridges, This store-Chamber can be removed or in serted at will, and it acts automatically when the store-chamber is opened or even when it is shut, no special movement being necessary. In I opening; the store-chamber a cartridge comes in,- isi closing another cartridge comes forward, so tbat it will fall into place when the store-chamber is again opened. This store-chamber can be adapted to any gun loading at the breech, if the latter be provided with a cylindrical closing; and thus repeating guns ace obtained. It . requires but fifteen seconds to refill the store chamber, when it may be carried separately or at once inserted In the gun. . In the latter case it ia applied to the cartridge chamber, the weight coming, favorably, upon the centre- of gravity of ' the eun. Tbe eun does not lose anv of its ouali. ties of rapid d scharge by this addition. By means or , this invention pne can be loading while firing.
