Improved Instruments of warfare. --Dr. M. Jeter, of Salem, Va., yesterday exhibited to us the model of an invention of his own, which he calls the "Roanoke Revolving Cannon." A gun constructed upon this principle may be loaded and fired with astonishing rapidity, and would constitute in itself a formidable battery. The advantage claimed for it over other munitions of the sort is a screw, which regulates the working of the piece. The same gentleman has a new breech-loading rifle, made in Roanoke county, which seems to be a superior weapon. Patents will be applied for.
