EXPRESS SHOT GUNS. 
(Title registered.) 
S HOWN by trials at Wimbledon by Editor 
of the Field to possess the GREATEST PENE- 
TRATION and therefore LONGEST RANGE— thus: 
Circle, 30 Inches: 300 pellets, average, 191: penetra- 
tion, 87. The Editor's trial of Greener guns with 810 
pellets of sank- shot and »amc charge of powder, gave 
180, and penetration 30, although there were 40 more pel- 
lets In each charge. Shonlaany controversy arise as 
to the durability of these new systems, we herewith 
warn all beforehand that our system Is our own inven- 
tion (though founded on the American idea) and is DU- 
RABLE, u fact remarked on by the Field, that the 
guns tried hud been in use during Inst season, and ref- 
erences permitted to the owners . Send for Illustrated

Natural History 
For Object Teaching in Schools, 
AND 
PARLOR ENTERTAINMENT. 
o 
We are prepared to furnish the first sixty numbers 
of the first serifcB of 
Animals and Birds of North America. 
To these will he added a second series of foreign speci- 
mens, and various Animals and Birds in grotesque at- 
titudes, never however violating their natural Instincts, 
Wo offer these views not as pictures only, but as 
studies from nature. One of the great moving ele- 
ments m our modem system of education is object 
teaching. The unerring fidelity of the stereoscope 
transfers the animals and birds from their natural 
habltot to the room* of the student, aud the fixes tie of 
our homes, where they cannot fail to leave a lasting 
impression of the form, color, habits, and locality of 
each specimen. 
An experience of more Ilian twenty-five years ts 
Taxidermist of the New York State Cabinet of Nat- 
ural History, and In gathering his large collection of 
native and foreign specimens, enables Mr. Hurst to 
combine In every view tho locullly of tlio specimen 
with Its appropriate rocks, woods or water, nnd color- 
ing from tile originals.
