| Steel Rifled Cannon |
| We saw yesterday, near the
{Virginia} Central railroad depot, awaiting
transportation, two steel 12-pounders, rifled. The mark on each shows
where they came from -- "Blakely's patent -- Fawcett, Preston & Co.,
makers -- Liverpool 1861." These little dogs of war very recently
arrived on this continent. |
