THE DAILY POST.
-----
MONDAY MORNING, JULY 16.
From the btar.
Geu. James' Mite Cauuon.
On Saturday afternoon a very inter
esting exhibition of Lieu. Jawed rifled
cannon was made on the Monument
grounds, in the presence of the Presi
dent, members of the Cabinet, and of
Congress, and a great number of offi•
cora and scientific persona.
The guns exhibited were the battery
of the Secund Rhode Island Regiment,
and the operations were carried on un
der the command of Gov. Sprague in
person, who formerly commanded the
Hirst Regiment. Col. Slocum was on
the field, and Capt. lionalds directed
the movements of the company. This
battery has only been organized a month,
and it is said that the company never be
tore fired ball cartridges.
lhe guns are bronze six-pounders of
the ordinary pattern externally, but
are bored a trifle larger than if they
used round shot, and are rifled acoord
ing to Gen. James' plan. Tte projec
tiles used were shells weighing 12
pounds and solid shot weighing 14
pounds. The principle of their con
struction, for which Gen. James has
a patent, is the combination of an ex
panding metallic ring of flexible metal,
with an elongated cast iron projectile,
so arranged that when the powder burns
this expanding ring is pressed into close
contact with the inside of the gun, fill
ing the rifled grooves, and effectually
shutting off all escape of the gas. This
ring dperates best when covered with
canvas thouroughly greased, so that the
ball glides out of the gun without bring.
ing metal into contact with metal; and
in this form Gen. James uses it. But
if the canvas is dispensed with, the
projectile answe• s very well, so long as
the gun lasts, although the abrasion of
metal upon metal rapidly destroys the
bore. W hen used as the inventor prefers
to use it, the effect of the projectile is
much less Injurious to the gun than the
effect of ordinary round shut, notwith
standing the increased weight of the
metal thrown; which is proved by the
fact stated by Gen. James, that he has
fired a common bronze six-pounder
fifty times with two pounds of powder
and fourteen pounds of common shots
without producing the least injurious
effect upon the gun, whereas two pounds
of powder fired in the same gun behind
a six-pound round shot will destroy the
gun at the first fire, by swelling it so
at the point where the shot rests upon
the powder that it cannot be used again.
Gem James also stated that one of these
guns had been fired with two pounds
and a half of rifle powder, and a four
teen pound shot, and that there was
no injury done the gun, when the re
coil was fifteen feet. The same law
holds good for large as well as small
guns, as has been proved by practice
and reported by a board of State officers;
and the largest guns in service, when
rifled on Gen. James' plan an f using
his projectile, will throw double the
weight of metal due to their size as
round shot guns, to a distance much
greater than before, without injuring
the guns is the least. The Union gun
at Old Point is on this plan, and the
Government has a large number of
these rifled 42-pounders, throwing 84-
pound shot, ready for use.
The first exhibition was throwing
shells by the whole battery of six guns
into the river at the distance of three
quarters of a mile. As the shells struck
the water they
- burst, throwing up jets
into the air, and scattering fragments,
about in all directions. Eighteen of
these shells were fired in fifty-two sec
onds, and all kept together at a point
aimed for on the river.
One section of the battery of two guns
MB then placed in position to throw
down the river at long range, and sev.
eral shots were fired over the Long
Bridge. The guns soon Used up all the
range in that direction which oould be
got without striking the shore; and
when the elevation reached nineteen
degrees the shot maintained their flight
thirty.five seconds and carried four miles
and a quarter. At seventeen degrees
elevation the flight was twenty-five sec
onds and the distance three miles and a
half.
The longest range obtained by the
Armstrong and Whitworth guns is at an
elevation of thirty-six degrees, and as
Gen. James at little more than half
that elevation throws its projectile far
ther than can be seen, it would seem
probable that at the highest elevation it
would exceed the English ones, and
this is all done without making a new
gun, and simply by rifling in a particu
lar way an old piece now lit for use,
The English government knighted
Sir William Armstrong for inventing a
plan by which, at great expense, a new
and complicated gun, could be made to
shoot at long range. General James
has invented a plan by which any old
gun can out-shoot Sir William Arm
strong's new and costly one. Thus we
have another illustration of the superi
ority of American inventive genius over
European, in every department of Fact
tics' art and science.

rible moments just before the battle be.
gins. 4. soldier, in his narration of per
sonal adventures in the . Mexican war,
published in "Hows's Achievements
of Ametidans," gives some interesting
items on this head in description of
the battle of. Palo. Alto, the opening
battle of the war :
When all was ready, both armies stood
still for about twenty minutes, each wai
ting for the other to begin the work of
death, and during- this time I did not
see a single man of the enemy move--:
they stood like statues. We, remained
quiet.„ with two exception; Gen. Taylor,
followed 1 , - hi' 4taff, rode from left to - -
right at a slow pace, with his leg thrown •
over like a woman, andashepassedeaeh
regiment be spoke words of.encourage 7;
ment. I know not what he said to the
others, but when he came to where we
stood, he looked steadily at us, I sup
pose to see what effect the novel-sir.:
cumstances in which we were ; placed
had upon us, and as he gazed he said;
"The bayonet, my hardy cocks; the
bayonet is the thing." The ether.oc-e
casion was that'of Lieut. Black, of the
engineers, who volunteered gallop
along the enemy's line, ,in
both armies, and oeunt,their
so close did he go that he might have been
shot a hundred limes. One of the
officers of the enemy, doubtlesS thinking
he 'had some communication to inake,
rode out to meet him ; Black, however,
paid no attenticn to him, but rode on;
and then returned and reported to Gen.
Taylor:
Thus stood those two belligerent
armies,. face to face. What were:the
feelings of those thousands. How
many thoughts and fears•were crowded
into= those few moments ! Look at-our
men! a clammy sweat is settled all over
faces slightly , pale, not from cowardly
fear but from an awful sense of peril;
combined with determination not to
flinch from duty. These are the ma
meats in which true soldiers resign
themselves to the reflection that-what
ever may befall them they will aetwith
honor ; these are the moments when
the absolute coward suffers more than
death—when, if not certain he would
be shot in his tracks, he would turn
and flee. Fighting is very hard work; the
who =Ethos passed through a two hours
fight has lived through a great amount of
mental and physical labor. At the end
of a battle I always fOund that Iliad
perspired so I rofusely as to wet through
all my thick woollen clothing, and
when I had got cool, I was as so - re as
if I had been beaten with a club. When
the battle commences the feelings un
dergo a change. Reader, did you ever
see your house on fire ? If so, it was
then you rushed into great danger; it
was then you went over Elates, climbed
over walls, lifted heavy loads, which
you never could have done in your
cooler moments; you then have exper
ienced some of the excitement of a
soldier in battle. I always knew my
danger—that at any moment I was
liable to be killed; Set such was my
excitement that I never fully realized
it. All men are not alike ; some-are
cool ; some are perfectly wild or crazy;
others are so prostrated by fear that
they are con pletely unnerved—an RN NI
sinking and relaxation of all their
enegies . takes place, awful to behold;
they tremble like an aspen, slink into
ditches and covert --places, cry like
children, and are totally insensible to
shame—dead to every ethotion hut the
overwhelming tear of instant. death.
We had a few, and but a few of such,
in our army.
As the two armies were facing,each•
other, it was remarkable to see,,the
coolness of our men; there they stcvl
chewing bits of biscuit, and talklng/
about the Mexicans—some woudetiiigi
if they would fight, others allowing/
that they wohld, and like demoni; Ste. ,
I kept my eye on the artillery of the]
enemy, 'and happened to be-looking]
towards their right wing, wheu.sud l
denly a white curl of smoke sprang ;up
there from one of their gnus, and then
I saw the dust fly some distance ity
front, where thehall struck. Instantly
another, 'and then another rieh.euil of
smoke arose, succeeded by. hectnt4iug
sound, awl, tbe shot. coin"?
_orcsjllpg
towards us. The pent,y,l . lo4 *tri =Pi
idly, and their billS knockedthe 'dust
about us in all directotcP; some went
over our heads; others struck the ground
in front and bounded away. .•t
Our batteries-new went to work, and
poured in npon them a Derfeet storm
of iron.: Lieut. Churchill and his men
began with their eighteen pounders, and
when the . first was fired, it made such
a loud report that our men gave a spon
taneous shout, which seemed - to inspire
us with renewed' confidence. I could
hear every word the Lieutenant said to
his then. When the first stint wig fired,
he watchettlie ball, saying, " Too high,
men; try another." "'Too low, men;
try again—the third time is the oharm, , '
The third shot was fired, and I saw with
my own eyes the dreadful effect of that
and the following sho4,- "That's it
my boys!" shouted Churchill, jmnping
up about two feet; "you have them nbwl
keep her at that!' And so they did,
and every shot tore complete lanes
through the enemy'slines. but they
stood it manfully.. .the full chorus of
battle now ranged; twenty-three pieces
of artillery helehoi.4th their iron hail.
We . were ordered to lay doyrn i in the
grass to avoid the shot; this puzzled "
enerny,Und they Could not brink their
guns to bear t_ippg s_s, making our - loss
very small. ! Many were irwaarraar es
capea; one ball came within six inches
of my left side. The force of the shot was
tremendous; a horse's body was no . ob
stacle at all; a man's leg .was a mere
pipe stem. I watched the shot as it
struck the roots of the gra% and # was
