'I'he fuse fitted into this orifice it a recent IW- gi« n \nve«ntaou, made ol pewter, and roaemblos tho scrt'w *'ap used for the patent fruit cans. An ex- umijiation o.t thi.s pewter eap shows, b.owever, that it is made of two tiollow discs of metal screwed to- either, aad fil.'ed with meal powder; a number of inc Jiolf^ arc drilled in tho lower disc, while the other disc is entire nnd marked with figures in a circle, one, two, three, four. In this state the shell is water and weather proof. When taken for use, tho gunner, by means of a small steel in strumeat, scoops out a portion of the outer metal surface and lays bare the charge of composition powder below it. It’ the shell is desired to explod« in one second after leaving tho gun, the k'Conpinitr is made on the figure one; if in two BCCond.>?, on the figure two, and so on, the i«ioa being that tho shells of this description shall first strike tht' object aimed a^, and do execution as a hall, and tb’on explode, send ing th". buiUets forward as from another cannon located at that point where the flig.ht of the shell is arresteil. Largo shells of eight ov ten inches arc filled with powder only, and bursting do ex ecution by moans of their frngmfnts. Tx'ieso largo shells are generally fired by means of a fuaeofmcal powder, extending through a brass plug, screwed into the mouth of the shell.
