The unanimous verdict of all who are furnished with them, and those who have examined them, is, that the Invention is perfect in every Essential for Camp Purposes. It is, therefore, not too much to say, that it is undoubtedly the best, the strongest, the most portable, and the cheapest now in use. I have applied for a patent a Montgomery.

A New army ambulance. --We saw yesterday at the furniture warehouse of R. C. Howe, on Governor street, a newly- invented ambulance, which we do not hesitate to commend, as combining all the requisites for the proper care of the wounded soldier on the field of battle. It consists of a large pack- saddle, constructed in the most substantial manner, with a pannier, or, more properly, a litter, on each side, fastened to the saddle by strong leather straps and iron hooks. The whole contrivance may be placed upon the back of a mule, and when a wounded man is found a litter can, be instantly detached, and the sufferer placed upon it, when it is again hooked without trouble or inconvenience to the saddle and gently carried away to the hospital or other place of reception. The saddle is well provided with haversacks, within reach, of the wounded man, where provisions or other articles necessary for his comfort may be placed. One mule will thus carry away two men, without any jolting o
