Contraband of War.—The following
nition from Boutier's Law Dictionary will be
found useful to many of our readers:
Contraband, (Marine Uw,)-Its most ex
tensive sense means all commerce which is
carried on contrary to the laws of tho State.
Thelerm is also used to designate all kinds of
merchandise which are used, or transported,
against tho interdiction published by a ban or
solemn cry,
2. The term is usually applied to that unp
lawful commerce which is so carried on in
time of war. Commodities particularly useful
in time of war are contraband, as arms, am
munition, horses, limber for shin building,
and every kind of naval stores. When arti
cles come into use as implements of war, which
were before innocent, they may be declared to
be contraband. The greatest difficulty to de
cide what is contraband,seems to have occurred
in the case of provisions, which have not been
held to be universally contraband, though Vat
tel admits that they become so on certain occa
sions, wben there is an expectation of reducing
an enemy by famine.
—. i l
» * t,' f * »
3. In modern times, one of the principal
criteria adopted by the court* for the decision
of the question whether any particular cargo
of provisions be confiscable as contraband, is
to examine whether those provisions be in a
crude or manufactured state,for articles in such
examinations are treated with greater indul
gence in their natural condition than when
wrought up for the convenience of the enemy’s
immediate use. Iron unwroughtie, therefore,
treated with indulgence, though anchora-and
other instruments fabricated out of it are di
rectly contraband.
4. Contraband of war is the act by which,
in times of war, a neutral vessel introduces, or
attempts to introduce into the territory of ono
of the belligerent parties, arms, ammunition or
other effects intended for, or which may serve
hostile operations.
French Mortar Cannon.— The following
are some of the particular* relative to the new
French mortar cannon: The tube or barrel is
formed of several cylinders or rings of cast
or wrought iron, its longitudinal cylindrical
parts affording the means o I uniting the rings.
The interior of the tube Is rifled by means of
a certain number of projecting spiral rods,
shaped In triangular prisms, and this tube can
tie lengthened at pleasure. The breech of the
gun is a mortar, to whioh the tube is attache 1,
either for loading it at the breech or of making
use of it as a mortar, as occasion may require.
It la alleged that this oannon cannot become
healed; that the process of cleaning after each
discharge is unnecessary, except as regards the
breech, and that it may be Urea five times dur
ing the space now required to fire any other
guns onoa Another consequence said to fol
low from the non-beating of the barrel of the
gull is that there is no danger of bursting,
either from defect in the metal or from over
charge. The gun may likewise be lengthened
or shortened at pleasure. It is shown that
there is a considerable saving in the construc
tion of this gun, in consequence of the tube
being of open-work, and of iron in place of
bronze. It may be as light as is consistent
with the resistance which its weight must nec
essarily oppose to the recoil produced by its
discharge. Such a gun must, it is claimed,
eventually supercede mortars.
New Lamp.— A neweonstruclion of lamp
is described in the Mechanics' Magazine. The
cast of the lamp is a tube—which may resem
ble a candle—dosed at both ends, and this con
tains the oil, &c , with which the lamp is fed.
Immediately under the bottom of it is a shal
low, egg-shaped vessel, the lower end of which
is made of piatina. At its upper end this ves
sel communicates by two fine apertures with
tbereservolr above, and through these aper
tures the oil descends, and, falling on the piat
ina bottom, which is heated, is converted into
vapor. This passes away by a pipe proceeding
up from the top of tbe lower vessel or genera
tor into tbe reservoir, and tbe vapor escapes
and bubbles up through the liquid in tbe res
ervoir; at the top of the latter a jet is 'placed
and from this tbe vapor escapes and is burned
like ordinary coal gas. From the top of the
reservoir a small prpe proceeds, and terminates
in a jet under the piatina bottom of the gene
rator. and St this jet a small quantity of the
vapor is burnt, and generates a constant sup
ply for the main bnrner.
G-Rkenhoubk Plants in Booms.—Tie va
rious greenhouse plants which are kept in
rooms require a constant supply of water, which
should always be applied on the tops of tbe
pots, and from no consideration whatever
should any be suffered to remain in the water
pans under tbe pots, and they must also be
kept clean from dead leaves, &c. They must
be flnnigated wben there is any appearance of
insects. With respect to air, the plants should
have a good share in tine, warm weather. It
is a very common practice to open the under
sash window where tbe stand j wben
thus exposed to tbe drait, it injures them more
than if they were actually exposed to tho open
air. When they begin to grow long and
spindling, the tops of the shoots should be
nipped off with a pair of scissors, which will
cause them to become thick and bushy.
Thiev Arbkbtkd and Money Kkcoyebkd.
—On Thursday night, Chief of Police Patter
son arrived from Cumberland, Md., bringing
with him Win. Clark, who had boon arrested
at Mount Savage, Md., whither he was pur
sued by a gentleman of this city, employed by
Mr. Jas. Oarr, who had reason to believe that
1116 P"‘y who robbed Ms trunk of
$650 In gold,at Craddock’s Field, on tbe 28d of
April. After bit arrest, a search was madefor
the money, and $440 of it was found by Mr.
Murray, a constable, secreted in a hole about
two feet deep under Clark’s bouse, he being a
reaidant of tbe p’.ace where he was arrested,
though at tbe time of his arrest he was pursuing
his usual avocation of oarpenter near Mr
Cam's house. Mayor Wilson fully committed
Clark for trial.

Military Opthalmia.
Dr. F. A. Von Moschzisker, the celebra
a oculist and aurist, now sojourning in
1118 j?' t^“ epe h© has been practising most
successfully, has written a most interesting
etter upon Military Opthalmia, containing
some suggestions important to army.sur
geons, which we append:
. Editors: I would, by your permis
sion, through your columns, direct the at
tention of those physicians who are about
to assume the responsibility of composing
the medical staff of our brave volunteer
army, to a very important malady which
sometimes, by prevailing in the camp, does
more mischief than balls or powder in the
field. 1 allude to that*disease called Puru
lent, and sometimes Egyptian or Military
Opthalmia. Prom its prevalence in armies
and other large bodies of men, it has espe
cially attracted the notice of military sur
geons abroad,and has formed the subject of
several prize essays. The' most celebrated
Opthalmic surgons of Europe have, at vari
ous times, published reports of ils ravages
among the troops of Oermany, England,
Franoe, Russia and Belgium. Young sur
geons, and, indeed, even those of some ex
perience in the science of general military
surgery, are often ignorant of the simple
treatment of diseases of the eye, aad inca
pable, from the neglect of the study of that
organ, of forming true diagnosis of its
maladies.
I cannot, of course, here, enter into par
ticulars with regard to the diseases referred
to, or its many causes. My intention is sim
ply to suggest to the Medical Committee,
who have charge of the appointments, the
necessity of impressing on the minds of
those who join the army in a medical capa
city, the importance of Borne knowledge of
opthalmic diseases, and jiarticularly to
familiarize themselves with the one above
mentioned, and that most likely to require
their skill. I would also call their atten
tion to Tyrell’a work on diseases of the eye,
wherein Vol. 1, page tU, they will liud a
full account of the plan of treatment Tho
work of Mackenzie, also so well known in
this country, gives in chapter 12th a very
ample and critical account of puiulent
Opthalmia, as observed on a large scale, by
various military Burgeons of repute, and en
forces the advantages to be derived from,
a plan of treatment, the reverse of that by
depletion, which they almost uniformly
pursued. In my own work on the treat
ment of Opthalmia, will be found a fuller
account of the disease than 1 can encroach
upon your gpace to give. In its commence
ment I have used the following proscription
with the very best effect:
IHaUlled Water, 10 ouace*;
White Viteral, 1 eorcple,
Sola 100 of SubaceUUe of l>ead % drachm ITo wash
SptniH of Camphor, a drachms. {the Eye
Wards should be provided in every hospi
tal where those suffering from diseased eyes
should be placed apart from other invalids,
as this malady is highly contagious. Clean
liness in the camp,the regular ventilation of
the departments, combined with the plenti
ful personal übo of cold water, (a thing
often too much neglected,) will do much to
keep the evil away. I trust my suggestion
on the subject may excite attention to it
from those who, like myself, must know the
importance of what 1 have brought before
them. Let the young surgeons read upon
the subject while they have yet time, so that
they may be really efficient in every branch
of their practice, and consult with those who
have had more experience than themselves,
as 1 can assure them there is no sight more
distressing than soldiers present who have
suffered from the painful ravages of this
disease, without having received the proper
treatment in due time.

Frightful Wife Murder. — A horrible
case of wife murder occurred in Summit Co ,
Ohio, on Wednesday of last week. It appears
that a man named Cash, having had some diffi
culty with his wife, loaded a musket with
grape or pistol balls, and concealing himself
in the corner of a field, near which he knew
she must soon have-occasion to pass, he waited
for her, and as she came up, levelled the weapon
at her, lodging the contents in her body. The
unfortunate woman ran a few steps and feU,
Expiring immediately. A crowd soon collected
and purßuod the murderer. Just as they oamo
up with him he* fired a second time, but with
out doing any injury—the charge passing over
tho heads of his pursuers. Immediately after
the musket was discharged tho last time, he
received a blow on head wi'.h a stone,
which felled him to tho earth, after which ho
was seized and secured. Me was then lodged
in jail, and will no doubt expiate bis crime on
the gallows.
Wouldn’t be a Deserter's Wife —Fri
tate William Johnson, of Capt. Cooper's
company, returned home to Greenfield, Wash*
ington county, on Thursday morning, from
Camp Scott, having been honorably dis
charged on account of ill health. Oq rapping
at his door about three o’clock in the morning,
bis wife awoke and inquired who was there.—
A* he spoke, the recognized bis voice, and
hurrying to the door, she held it fast, exclairriV
ing, “Will, if you have deserted, you can’t
come in ’’ After a brief explanation, she
opened the door and gladly received him. Af
ter breakfast she was heard to declare that
she would rather a thousand times bis bones
had bleached on the field of battle than that
he bad come home a deserter.

P. Harr, by request on behalf of the doner-,
in a well conceived, brief and appropriate
ioeoch, of which we give the a svnoptis:
-Be said, It is with feelings of purest gratitude
that 1, on the part of your friends, pre
sent you with this testimonial of their regard.
You won such on the battle field* of Mexico,
whore your frionds followed, returning as you
did, with honor. 1 can only hope, as 1 do
believe, the samecourae will mark your ro
turn from your presont field of action.
Col. Anderson to the above remark replied:
After 1 return, i trust I may desorve such a

should be won ere worn. As it is, l receive
it with ail the greatful feeliog possible, and 1

a Qumber of military officers from
cacup Wilkins were present; among whom
wore many strangers amongst us, and many
military gentelmen from our city. Aftor tbe
presentation, tho entire company joined in the
merry dance, m the spacious parlor. Tbe
Stars and Stripes spread it* folds, and neatly
decorated the same, while the "measured
tread” of the festive throne, kept time to the
soul-stiring enlivening strains of music
that made sweet the brooding air, when
supper was announced to refresh tho inner
man, which all heartily partook of. Suffice
to say it was all that could bo wished, and
would suit the palate of the coinowseur, the
cloth being removed tbe "lads and lassies”

So sped the night
‘•When youth and pleasure meet,
To chase the glowing hour with flying feet,”
The song, the dance, tho joke and laugh,
went round till the sentinel—time,gave warn
ing that night had turned to morn, when the
company uTetly dispeqrsed to their homes;
having spent an evening entertainment that
will long live in the memory of all that had
the pleasure of being present.
Mkai-viu.k Volunteers —Capt. Henry
C. Johnson and Lieut. Joseph T. Chase, on
Wednesday last, for reasons of a strictly pri
vate nature, feeling it their duty to resign
thoir respective positions In this fine military
company, now quartered at Camp Wilkins, a
re'organization, by the election of now com
missioned officers, was effected, on yesterday
morning at 10 o’clock. Kor Captain, Samuel
B. Dick received -01 votes and David V. Der
ickson »G votes. George Li Bsmus was
elocled First, and T R. Kennedy. Second
Lieutenant, unanimously. A O. Hotchkiss
was also chosen Brevet Socond Lietenant.
This company is one of the finest now in
Camp, and from a personal acquaintance with
the newly elected officers, wo predict, should
occasion offer, it will do good service.
Capt. Dick is the third son of Gen John
Dick, ex-Congressman of the Krie and Draw,
ford Congressional District, and broiler of
Lieut. Geo. M. Dick, uf the U. S. A., who
graduated at West years since, but,
who young in years, fell a victim to the ravages
of a Southern climate while doscliarging his
duly. Ho comes of good stock, and although
small in stalune, carries a brave and noble
heart.
Lieutenants Bomus and Kennedy are admi
rably qualified for the positions they have
been chosen to fill, and with their gallant
young Captain, are beloved and respected by
the Company.
Lieut. Chase, on taking his leave, slated
that although circumstances at prusont ren
dered it necossary lor him to return home,
should h's services be required in future, he
would ho proud to .boulder a musket in the
ranks of the Aleadville Volunteers. Lieut.
C. was loudly cheered by his associates in
arms, and tho regret at parting seemed to
be mutual.

The following important letter was yester

PmarucMT op grin, i
Washington, M»ylii,lM>l. i
Su:—l have received your letter of yesterday* h date,
asking m« to give you m wrtuog my reasons for consul
enng an acceptance on yoor twirl of my. l*eiober*N
proposition to purchase the steamship* Y orb town and
Jame* own. recently seized by In* order, and now in
his po-aesHion, ar actot treason. With tin* rt quest I
comply. An insurrection ha# broken out iq several
Staten of ihn Union, including Virginia, designed u>
overthrow the Government of the Uuiled Bia<e*. The
executive authorities of the state are parties to that in
surreoUoo, ami ho are public eueuueM. Their acuon iu
seizing or buying vessels to be emp'oyed n executing
that design is not merely without liie authority of Jaw,
hot is treason. It is treason for any person (o give aid
and comfort to the pubic enemies. To set: vessels to
i hem which it is their purpose to use as ships of war, is
to give them ;u ‘ and comfort- To reoeivo mocey from
titem in payment for vessels which they have seized fur
these purposes, would be an attempt to convert the un
lawful seizure into a sale, and would subject the party
so offending to the pains and penalties of treason, aod
Uie Government would not hesitate to bring the offender
to punishment.
