A Raleigh correspondent says : 4,Last year the government be gan the issue of the Krag to the National Guard of all the states. All the volunteers who went to Cuba or the Philippines in 1898 And 1809 were armed with" the Krag and many of the National guardsmen of North Carolina are familiar with it. Its raijge is im mense, and its penetratiug power almost beyond belief, as it will go 48 to 50 inches in dry white oak timber, making a channel, which looks as if it bad been bored with an auger, the bullet resting at the end with its "jacket" or covering of nick j1 quite undisturbed.

In the year last J mentioned,- when about HI years old; the old gentleman was married.
