The Claims of Jacob Snider, Jr.. of Phila;
deiphia.
An old resident of Philadelphia, i Tacob
Snider Jr. has long been urgings claim
against the British government for remu
neration for a patent for converting the
army rifle into breech-10ader5. , .... The sub 7
ject bar excited much controversy, and
in the meantime, Mi. Snidel• has been
stricken by paralysis. The main points
in - the controversy and its most recent
aspect are presented in the following
leading article of the London Times, of
Oct. 20: • '
That there are two sides to every case
may . be an eternal truth, but that one
side is not always much erected by the
other is shown in a remarkable letter
from the Solicitor to the War Office,
which we publish this morning. In the
early„part-of—the -week „lye stated what_
had bben_authenticallv reported to us as
the case 0f..111r. Snider, the inventor of
the new breech-loading -fire-arm which
is to supersede the,:. Enfield rifle in the
service of the army. The facts wereex
tremelysimple, and the, issue no le..se so.
Mr. Snider -aslong - ago as the - year 1850,
hadoffered his system - to Governmentand
was invited tOgive specimens of its value
by theaptual conversionof a certain num-.
her ofEnfielde, into breech loaders of the
proposed pattern. These experiments Pc
cupied abouta year and half,at the expir.-
ation of which period Mr. Snider re.
plaire&to the Continent for the prosecu6
tion of his inquiries, and returned in
1863 with an improved arm, which, after
the usual opposition and delay, was at,
length adopted by, the State. Verytar
dily, however,was the invention applied
until the campaign inßohemia alarmed
the authorities - into. energetic action.
Then they set to work turning Enfields
intoSniders with all possible rapidity, ;
and then Mr. Snider, who_ had never
yet rebeived a penny for his discovery,
thought it was time for him to move
also especially as he had become para
lyzed, bedridden, and in want. He had
addressed himself to Lord Harrington
in the month of June, but it devolved
- upon the present Government to take
his claims into consideration. What
the nation owed to him was a recom
pense for an invention which relieved
the public from the cost of manufactur
ing a new firearm by an expedient for
converting the arm already in use.
That our soldiers must be armed with
breech-leaders was at length admitted
by everybody, and had , it not
been for Mr. Snider's discovery,
with which the Government had been
dallying for these seven years, every.
Enfield rifle.would, ave been rendered
useless, and the entire armament of the
British Infantry must have - been recon
structed at a ruinous outlay. Thus stood
the claim on the one side, and the debt
on the other. when Mr. Snider applied
for something in the wfty• -of - payment'
for I*' ,expenses, his services, and his in
ventiOn. Being advised to drop the
lattenclidurfor the present, and prefer
only the twolormer,
_he asked-for-2,790/.
The Government put the matter into
the hands of Mr: C. M.
_Clode, the Soli
citor for the War Office, and the end
was that -about: , a fortnight ago Mr.
Snider wasloffered, as a payment infull,
the sum of 1,.000/., which his friends in
despair of do ing any ,bettor, were fain
to accept for him. This was one side of
the case, as presented-to-the public on.
behalf of M.r. Snider; Mr. ' , -Clode
self, on behalf of the War office, now

merit. The question of the patent, as
we have said, was reserved in accordance
with thiguggeation of, the Departunitii
itself, and the calculation therefore only
applied to the reimbursement for
expenses" "incurred and compensation
for services rendered by Mr. Snider
in, the pr . oceeftgs which_ nitimately

position.' These, constituting Mr. Sni
der's personal claims, Mr. Clode is con

himself limited them, to eight months'.
attendance at. Woolwich and other
plades from November,lBBs, to July
the present-year, and •o=--the supply of
models, dra,wngs, and plans for-the lase
of the workmen - engaged. Now, this .
service of eight months, as it appears to
us, expresses simpl,y_the practical reali
zation of a project matured beforehand
by years of thought and toil. Mr. Snider
had been, in communication with the
GOVernment ever since 1859. He had
over and over again submitted his views,
his plans, .oand,- his improvements, and
such'was their value that they forced
their way into favor against even offi
cial objections. At length, aided by
the peremptory teaching of events,
Mr. Snider's;''system absolutely
prevailed; and - instead -of experi
ments and interviews, there came_
the work of actual and. rapid manufrte.
ture. These- eight7-.montlas, therefore,
resembled thethirty-five,minutes of ac
tual battle,which decide the destinies of
an Empire as 'well as the fate of a cam
paign, but though we do not in such
cases consider that a successful General
has' been in the service of the State for
half an hour and no more, our authori
ties have applied that standard of calcu
lation to the claims of poor Mr. Snider.
The War Office first ignored even the
existence of Mr. Snider except for the
period between November and July last,
then sent tolnquire at Woolwich and
Enfield for the exact number of days
during these eight months on which Mr.
Snider had been seen there, then reck
oned up the number and value of hip
drawings, and, having made up
the account to its own satis
faction, behaved, as its solicitor
thinks, very handsomely in the valua
tion which followed. Mr. Clode,indeed,
takes credit for consideration as well as
munificence. He wrote to Mr.. Snider's
friends "with the openness and candor
which every public servant is bound to
show," stating that Mr. Snider could
not be traced at any of the public estab
lishments for more than 18 days out of
the whole eightmonths,and insinuating
a doubt whether he had ever furnished
the Department with any drawings at
all. To this plesl-- •nt communication he
added a hint that he should be glad to
receive any proof that Mr. Snider yeas
not endeavoring to impose upon the au
thorities, and at last, when nothing was
forthcoming to induce a more favorable
view of the inventor's claims,made what,
under the circumstances,
was conceived
to be the very handsome tenderof 1;0001.
Now, we ventureon behalf of the pub
lic to say very plainly that the Depart
ment totally -mistook its position and
its duties in this unfortunate business.
When, after seven years! exertion,
crowned by recognized success, Mr. Sni
der applied for compensation, to those
authorities who at that moment were
availing_ themselveS of his invention
with all poiSible activity, it wag no time
for haggling over pounds and shillings
or requiring vouchers for,Mr, Snider 's
attendances in the capacity of a journey
man. There was the plain,broad fact
that Mr.-Snider was the, cre ditor of the
nation for all the money saved by con
version instead of manufacture, and all
the service-represented by an , expedi
tious arniginent on the new and neces
se,ry_model. -It was ashabbypOliery td:
ask for items-at all, still more so to--cut
those ; • items , • down. We can
readily' • imagine that Mr. • Snider,
or his friends for him, , scarcely
knew hoW to frame a bill of particulars.
What they did knowand what the War
Office knew just as well, was that it was
his invention, ean• which - all Woolwich
and Enfield were at - work, and that ex
cept for this invention they' would not
have been at work at -all. It was his
discovery which was so opportunely pro
viding for the efficiency of our army
and the economy of the public money.
We do not know what Mr. Snider may
get for his patent, though we should not
fancy that it would - either amount to
very much - or come very soon; but when
the poor man, in his helplessness, asked
only for 2,700/. as his recompense, itwas
the extreme of shabbiness to dissect such
a claim and strike off nearly two-thirds'
of it. It was not thus that Sir William
Ardistrong was paid, and it will not be
thus, we trust, in spite of Mr. Clode's
special pleading, that Mr. Snider's re
muneration will ultimately stand.
Easton and Bethlehem.
[From the Lehigh Chronicle.]
If a stranger were to get his notions of
Easton from a sojourn at Bethlehem, he
would esteem Easton an old fogy inland
village,
important only as the county
seat of Northampton, the inhabitants
whereof had grown rich by parsimony
and shaving notes, and were now occu
pied in holding on to their ill-gotten
gains—a town , of lawyers, raftmen, bad
whisky and profanity—to be avoided by
all people of honesty or enterprise.
If a stranger began at Easton' to get
his ideas concerning Bethlehem, he
would understand it to be a dull and in
significant suburb of Easton, inhabited
by slow Moravians, remarkable for love
feastsznd propriety, fai behind Easton
in the natural beauty of its scenery, and
only worth:visiting to put one's daugh
ter to school—or to refresh one's self
with a day's trip , to the fifteenth cen
tury.
, Both these views are, in truth, one
sided andamfair. Each town has ex
cellencies which theother might borrow
with , adva ri tage t and each faults which
it might withfiut loss—things that
are only Beth' Olose acqueintance.
Easton, iiispite of , the;damkge--- done
its inbuidlraft by railroads, is still arid
Will remain the centre of canal andrail
transportation in EasternPennsyivania,
and the,place where the ; inhabitants of
Carbon; Pike, Wuynwand'Alortree'come
for goods. It has wholesale houses, of
which Bethlehem litia none. Its gas,
water and fire arrangements are • 'far str-i
perior to those of Bethlehem. The, in

is in reality,' a small city, with ftll the
merits'of cheapness and enlightenment,
land all the vitelitlot belong to trade.
Bethlehem on the other hand, is
growing fast, while Easton is nearly
standing still. Bethlehem has a large„
field to grow upen; Easton'lei
without crossing to Jersey or building
separate tOwns'en theixills. Bethlehem
,
has of thefinest order; tho_lietels
!of Easton's?' e execrable. 'Bethlehem' has
finer-single maiisions, some ay/hick:are
furnished more expensively than any in
Easton. Bethlehetn has better-board-
ing and_local schools than Easton. For
chances to specuhite in real estate Beth
lehem is ahead. Bethlehem is much the
neater in its streets and buildings.
There are none of the rickety sheds and
old shells which deface Northfunptou
;street and - the:Square at Easton. The
social atmosphere, if not so gay as East
on, is perhapsa little/ purer. If there is
less noise andactivity, there is also less
intrigue andpetty jealousy. Bethlehem,
in short, has all the merits of the old
Moravian economy, purity of morals,
and such qualities as come with the ac
cretion of wealth from the upper section
of the valley, and all the evils which be
long to sudden transition fromoontented
poverty to the American race for riches.
If Easton could borrow from Bethle
hem its moral tone, hotels, schools; and
the habit of investing its capital near
honie, and-Bethlehem could borrow from
Easton its largerinterest in public affairs
its public spirit, its business enterprise,
its warm-hearted sociability and general
intelligence, each town would be the
better for it. •
Cheshire Cheese Making.
A correspondent of the Utica Herald
thus describes the process of cheese
making in Cheshire, F.ngland:
The Cheshire - mode of cheese making
is somewhat, peculiar, and is what an
American would call decidedly anti
snated. The night's milk is usually set
in pans and added to the morning's
mess, when it is set with rennet at a
temperature of 75 to SO degrees. Often
no heat is applied, the morning milk
being sufficiently warm to keep the
mass up to the desired temperature for
setting. After the rennet is applied the
coagulation is p erfected in about an
hour, when it is carefully broken up
with a wire or tin curd cutter (the old
American curd cutter). The breaking
being perfected and the curd becoming
sufficiently firm, the whey is dipped
off. Then the curd is lifted into a
drainer, or kind of sink where
the whey can drain off more throughly,
and from time to time the card Is
cut across and heaped up so as to facili
tate a more thorough separation of the
whey. It is then salted and ground in
a curd mill, when it is put into the pat
or hoop, but not put immediately to
press. The hoops filled with curd are
set in a warm place for a day or so, ge
nerally in a kind of oven constructed for
the purpose, and on the second day are
put under press. Here they are kept
two or three days or more, similar to the
Flan pursued in the Wiltshire and
Gloucester districts. The hoops have no
followers.' They have a bottdm pierced
with holes, which is stationery, and a
strip of tin about 4 or 5 Inches wide placed
about the curd on the insideof the hoop
and above it so as to raise the curd above
the top of the hoop. A board is now
thrown or placed on top of the curd, and
as the press is applied the tin sinks
down with the curd until it is
pressed even with the hoop. If the
cheese is not found to be solid enough,
another hoop of less height is used, and
the tin put around that portion above
the hoop, andpressed in a aim Jar man
ner. Many of the presses are nothing
but large, square blocks of stone, and
which are raised by a screw.. They are
rude affairs. The bed piece on some,is of
s tone, with a flue beneath, so as to keep the
cheese warm while pressing. The milk
is worked up into curd, and the uten
sils cleaned up every day by 12 o'clock,
M. It was really a matter of surprise to
me to find that fine cheese could be
made by this process, where everything
is done by guess, and where all the op
erations are so different from our method.
But a great deal of poor cheese is made
in the Cheshire dairies. That which is
the best is as fine in flavor and in quality
as any cheese made, and will command
he highest prices.

WASHINGTON BAEROW, OF TENNESSEE.—
Washington Barrow, of' Tennessee, died at
St. Louis, on the 19th bast. He had for
many years held a prominent position in
Tennessee, particularly during the exist-
ence of the Whig party. He was American
Charge d'Affairs to Portugal during the
administration of President Harrison. He
was in Congress from the Nashville district
from 1847 to 1849. He was also one of the
three commissioners sent by Isham G.
Harris to frame a treaty between Tennessee
and the rebel confederacy 'before the State
had seceded. When Nashville surrendered
he was arrested by Governor Johnson and
sent to a prison in the North, but was soon
released by order of Mr. Lincoln.
