Tile Kennedy Magazine Rifle.— In the Fobest and 8t«kah 

 of last week appeared the remarkable record made by Otto W illrins 

 at glass balls thrown from a trap, a far more difficult performance 

 than the cracking of glass balls and other objects as they are 

 thrown from the hand of an experienced second. The account, 

 however, omitted to state that the weapon used was the Ken- 

 nody magazine arm, and was made by the Whitney Arms Com- 

 pany, of New Haven. For a magazine and hunting rifle it is 

 second to none made. That it is appreciated is seen in the grow- 

 ing demand for it from all sections of the country, and especially 

 from the West, where the hunting qualities of an arm are i I tl 5 

 severely tried. The breech is of very simple construction, per- 

 fectly safe, having roUed metal in the line of resistance to the 

 fire, and it can be manipulated and fired as rapidly as anj ana 

 The company are now uiaking'a rifle of the same name and style, 

 but intended to use a 60 grain cartridge of .45 caliber. I'rt sident 

 Whitney also reports : " Wo have made about 2,000 of the Bur- 

 gess gun, that uses I ho United States Government carl rid- a, and 

 has sold better for sporting purposes than any new gun evorjwt 

 on the market in tbe same time, and has given good satisfaction."

Wn EBListi, IF. Fa., July lOWt.— The" second telegraph match be- 

 tween the teams from the Pennsylvania Rifle Club, of Philadel- 

 phia, Pa., and the Wheeling Rifle Club was shot to-day. The 

 weather, so far as heard from, was about equal for each team, and 

 higher scores were made than in their first match, the Wheeling 

 team gaining 12 points on its last total, while the Philadelphia 

 team gained 17. As usual, the Wheeling Club comes to the top 

 with a lead of 13 points. A third match will probably be shot, in 

 which Mr. Dwight will not participate, and he will probably not 

 shoot in any more telegraph matches this season. Each member 

 fired 10 shots 100 yards, and same at 200 yards, making 20 in all. 

 below is the score in full :—

THE HALJ70RD-HYDE MATCH. 



BY noon of Saturday last it was generally known on this side 

 tho water that the team of Americans whom Mr. Hyde had 

 collected to meet a company of Britishers had met with a crush- 

 ing defeat. Despite ail advice to the contrary, and in direct op- 

 position to the calmer judgment of men who were in a tad tor po- 

 sition, aud in a better frame of mind than he to estimate the 

 strength of the British team and the weakness of his own party,

 Henry Halford for a British-American match. The match was 

 set down for the last day of tho Wimbledon meeting, and on Sat-

 match on June 29th last, and the match of Saturday last, for the 

 American team to have taken a season of systematic drill. The
