The poor frantic inoiher begged and implored of " inauea " to " buy little Jem mie, too," (and I will do liim the juitic* to aay that he was much moved by her appeals), and when khe lound that her ap peala were in vnin, she burst forth into the most frantic wails tlmt ever despair gave utterance to.

The barrel o» a rifle has, running the length ol the inner surface, spiral grooves or channels—hence the name of rifle, which means rifled or grooved gun. One object of a ril* barrel is to give greater precision toi1" 1*|l. by communicating to it a rota"? motion. 'I'his motion it receives on out of the gun, provided the |,.i1 is crowded into tl"! gun so as to till up partially or entirely the grooves; and the m""' perfectly the ball fits into grnow». the truer its coursr. and the less windage there is; that is, the less space there is between thp ball and tlDe barrel for the strength ol the powdor to escape. It is estimated that when the windage i* only one twentieth the calibre of the gun, one third of the powder escapcs, and of course its strength is lost. The great object, therefore, to be  Ii» jrivo" ine ro?a r'y motion,'and to aave the powder. A French gunsmith invented a ntie which had Its breech pin project wedgeshaped about two inches into the barrel.— Tho ball, a conical shaped one, was then dropped into the barrel, and a few heavy blows with a rammer drove the wedge or pin into the ball so us to fill :he grooves m the barrel. The Minie ball, now so famous, is an improvement on all balls, inasmuch as it makes the powder spread or slug tha ball, instead ol the rammer doing that work. The ball is oblong, with a conical point. |n its base it has a conical hollow, runninu hail or two-thirds the length of the ball V cup made of sheet iron is placed in thC orifice of this hollow, which at the install of firing is driven by the powder will ureal force into the hall, thu=. spreading ; open. tDo as in its course out to perlectly nttig or fill the grooved barrel. 'I'his ac I con.pln.hes the whole object; it saves lime in ramming, it destroys windage, thus economizing in powder, nnd makes the ball perlectly fit the barrel ao as to give the ball » perfectly rotary motion,- and certainty of direction. Thus the Minie im|,iu*«menttaking i's name from the inventor, a French artillery oflicer named Mi.tie—i* a M'»io ballD and ,n°' R M""e nflc. The conical shape of the bullet gives it greater weight of metal than a round onej affords less resistance tothe air, and greatly increases the distance it can he thrown.
