The Faria correspondent of the Londou
Dally News, writing from the camp at
Obalons, Rays:
"I have just seen tho new brooch-load
ing rillo which has boon rlocidod upon as
the future firearm of tho French infantry.
It is an admirable woapon. The bore is
about tho same nB our lung Enfield. Tbo
breech is opened by the most simple
mothod, anil I should say was next toim^
popsihlo to got out of order. Tbe barrel
ih pulled away, as it wore, by tho person
who bolds it, and pulled back in an in*
Hunt. It can .bo loaded und fired with the
groalost ease, from thirty-one to thirty*
three shot i u nduuto from it. The bayo
net it will have Is to bo the sword bayo
net, tbe saiiio ns now used by tho'Chas*
south a’Pied and tho Zouave*. A now
head-dress is also about to ho issued to the
infantry. It is u very low shako, much
the sninc make, shape and height as that
worn by Lord Kanelngh and tho South
Middlesex . volunteers, but is made of
scarlet cloth, and is most comfortable to
wear. With this und tho scarlot kui jker-
bockors, tho leather loggings, and the
loose blue tunicB, thn Eiuperor has cer*»
liiinly managed to maku hi* infantry of
the line tbo bust dressed iu Europe; and
they will certuiuly bo tho best armed,

An exrellont cemont for uniting artioles
of wood with metals, glass, stone, etc.,
may be obtainfd by dissolving glue In
boiling water and making it of the same
consistency a* that of cabinet-makers'
glue; then add, while stirring, a sufficient
quantity of «vovd ashes h t-» produce a
varnish-lifee mixture. Whilo hot, the
surfaces to be united must he covered or
coated with this glun comr ound, and
propped together. When cjld. tho cur-

much force will bo needed to separate
them again.
