The observers disposed themselves along the beach, and when the 68-pounder was fired, it _was obsessed that the shot first struck the ’ ground at more than 2500 yards from the gun, that it richochetted and struck again at 5000 yards, and was expected to be found some- where iu the neighborth of Formby. The accuracy of the gun was me vellous. The experiments were pronounce to he more than satisfactory : they were astonishing. The population of Ireland was less in 1851 than in 1821, the number of inhabitants inj 1851 having been 6,551,970, and in 1821 6,-1 801,827. 1 ”a... . .uuu. auu uuutu rur- ,] ther sa 5 on the same subject zâ€"On Thurslay a on the beach at Southport, Mr. \Vhitworth of ., Manchester, conducted a series of experi- ments to ascertain the capabilities of the fa- - mous gun which he has invented. The guns experimented upon were a 3-pounder, a six- - pounder, a twelve-pounder, and a 681b gun, - throwing a shot weighing 90le. For some . weeks past Mr. “’hitworth has been engaged ) in bringing to perfection various details in l the mam facture of the gun; and on Thurs- , day, having concluded the preliminary trials, 1 were assembled by special invitation to wit- ; ness the result, which established the fact that the Whitworth gun is, if not superior to the invention of Sir William Armstrong, at least its equal in destructive capability. Sir John Burgoyne, the Inspector General of F or- tifications,and several members of his personal staff, Lieutenant Eaton, of the Dapper gun boat, and many of Mr. Whitworth’s Man- chester friends were present. The guns were perfect specimens of mechanical art.â€" The gun differs from the ordinary Govern- ment service gun in the fact that it is not “cast ”in one piece, but is formed of a series of rings of metal, which we believe, are weld- ' ed and forged together. The gun is loaded Lat the breech, and in the peculiar arrange- ment at this part the consummate skill of the inventor is displayed. Should the gun be in- 1 jured at the breech during action, it can be loaded in the ordinary way at the muzzle.-â€"- ' The shot was at first made rather elongated, .. and nearly square at the ends; but it was 1 found that a peculiar “ thinning ” of one end added materially to the range. A tin cart- ridge follows the shot in the loading chamber t and this cartridge is so formed that the cham- ber of the gun is effectively cleaned at each discharge. The three-pound gun, at an ele- ‘ vation of 35 degrees, threw. a shot 9680 yards; ' l the six and twelve-ponnders greatly exceed- ed this distance ; while. as regards the 681b "“h -.._ â€"â€"-A PROVINCIAL PARLIAMENT.

With the 3-pounder gun a range of 9688 yards is said to have been obtained, the furthest distance hitherto re-‘ corded being 9000 yards, obtained by anl Armstrong 32.

A Mr. McDOUGAL said he was glad that Mr. Cameron had taken what many would con- sider a more moderate course than he had taken last session. At Onetime the public mind set strongly in favor of a measure of entire prohibition, but after the comparative failure of laws of that kind in the adjoining States, he believed a change of opinion had taken place with regard to the expediency of entire prohibition. A resolution was passed through Commit- tee to the effect that itwas expedient to make further provision fez regulating-«lie retail of intoxicating liquors." _A bill founded on the . ‘ .‘ v" "-v -avvauvo “GIG DU anxious for legislation. ‘He contended that nothing had so impoverished this country, promoted crime. caused accidents, and increased law costs as the use of intoxicating drinks. He. asserted that no Government had a right to license the traflic at all. But, if they licensed one man in fifty or one man in a hundred, this established their right to license more it they pleased. If they had a right to restrain it on the Sabbath, they had a right to restrain it all the days of the week. He held that lthe amount of drinking was proportioned tc‘ the number of drinking shop: that were al~l llowed to be open. This was proved by the experience of Scotland. In 38 parishes of that country there were no places for the sale. of liquor, and in those parishes there were no drunkards.

As from these remarks it was evident that an- nexation was really imminent, Mr Seymour Fitxgerald put another question, and than the Whole truth came out. In fact, Sardinia has not agreed to cede Savoy, and does not Wish or intend to do so, but the French I’m- ’ l peror has demanded Savoy as the price of his {consent to the annexation of the Italian- . Duchies and thczRomagna to the dominions of Victor Emmanuel. “ It has,” said Lord John Russell, “ to my knowledge been com- municated to the Government of Turin that it any considerable extent by the annemdon at Central Italy, France would think that her: frontier was not secure without the annexa-f tion of at least some part of Savoy.” Such, 3 then, is the latest developem‘ent of the Italian 3 question. The Emperor of the French. in ‘ whose strange character the two opposingf. qualities of rigour and vacillation seem to: meet, is now, at the eleventh hour, endeavor- t . n 3 last night in the House of Commons explain perfectly the present; position of affairs with 1. respect to the annextion of Savoy. The Fo- reign Secretary sufficently indicated the 'grave state of the question, and the tone of his replies was an earnest that no effort will be spared by the British Cabinet to prevent so 'wanton a wrong as the dismemberrnent of the [Sardinian Monarchy. Lord John Rusaeh’ {stated that communicatiozzs had paused be- ;tween the British and Sardinian Governments that the former had inaniri-ed whether there was an engagement or intention to cede Savoy -‘to France, and that the answer had been generally that there was no engage- .ment on the subject, and that Sardinia had no intention to cede Savoy. So far the infor-- mation given tothe House was perfectly sat~ i isfaciory: It seemed clear that”whateveri discussion may have taken place on this sub- ject before and since the war, King Victor Emmanuel had never consented to relinquish his most ancient province. and that he will now resist both temptations and menaces, from whatever quarter they may come.
