be finished early in the spring, ready for the movements of the contractor in the department of machinery. There is ample room for carrying on the necessary manufacturing operations, with water-power sufficient for any emergency. In the repairing room of the Armory may be seen a great variety of weapons, including the pattern muskets and rifles that have been sent here from England and elsewhere. The gun used by old John Brown is a prominent object of interest. The veteran Armorer, Mr. Barnes, who has been employed here for forty years, without losing scarcely a day, still pursues his occupation in this department. The Laboratory, at present, is the busiest portion of the establishment. On the first floor we saw a large quantity of shell, strapped shot and shrapnel, with other munitions of war in abundance. In the room above, a large force is employed in the manufacture of cartridges. They turn out from 7,000 to 8,000 musket and rifle cartridges per day. Everything prep
of the instrument is heard, and the busy operators are seen intently engaged upon their work, unmindful of the din and noise without — the beating of drums, the shrill scream of the steam whistle, or the passage of trains — or of the many curious men who continually crowd around the windows. Close beside the cars stands the field telegraph, with its large coil of wire wound upon the cylinder, ready at a moment's notice to be laid from headquarters to any point. The chief operator here is Mr. Barnes, who has two assistants, and, as can be easily supposed, the three are kept as busy as bees. Just beyond the telegraph office is that of the Express Company, which at this time has quite the appearance of a curiosity shop. The building itself is filled up with all kinds of curious boxes and parcels, addressed principally to men in the army, and which have remained here some time uncalled for.
