JOHN H. MANN, Syracuse, New York 
This arm was submitted in competition with over 
one hundred different systems, American and Euro¬ 
pean. to the Board of United States Officers, appoint¬ 
ed by Act of Congress, 6th June, 1872, for the pur¬ 
pose of selecting the best arm for the service, and of 
which Brig. Gen. A. H. Terry was President. It suc¬ 
cessfully passed through all the tests. 
The following is the report of the Board: 
“Besolved , That the adoption of magazine guns for 
the military service by all nations is only a question 
of time; that whenever an arm shall be devised which 
shall be as effective as a single breech-loader, as the 
best of the existing breech-loading arms, and shall at 
the same time possess a safe and easily manipulated 
magazine, every consideration of public policy will re¬ 
quire its adoption. 
Resolved , further. That the experiments before the 
Board with the Ward-Burton Magazine System have 
so impressed the Board with the merits of this gun, 
that they consider it as more nearly fulfilling the con¬ 
ditions above specified than any other tried by them 
or of which thev have any knowledge, and it does 
recommend that a number of magazine muskets be 
made on the plan for further trial in the field.” (See 
Ordnance Report.) 
We are now receiving orders for these gnus, and due 
notice will be given in this paper when they are ready 
for delivery. 
The following is our scale ot prices: Special Maga¬ 
zine for large game, carrying from 3 to 8 cartridges, 
70 to 85 grs. of powder, 350 to 400 grs. of lead, 8 to 10 
lbs.weignt, from $60 and upwards, according to finish. 
Special Long-range Magazine Rifle for Creedmooi 
shooting, 90 grs. of powder. 480 grs. of lead, carrying 
3 to 8 cartridges, weighing 10 lbs., from $100 and up¬ 
ward. Magazine guns for general use, carrying 3 to
