Bayonet on the double barrel shot gun.

--Our friend, Mr. Geo. S. King, has shown us a bayonet attached to a double barrel shot gun, which seems to us to supply a deficiency which has heretofore existed in the common shot gun as a weapon for warfare.--The bayonet is so fixed as to be secure when used, and interferes in no way in drawing the ramrod. We understand that he has two other modes of attaching the bayonet to the gun, but as he intends applying for a patent for each of them, we will not attempt a description, but merely remark that the bayonet, with the whole attachment, is made of the best cast steel.--Tallahassee Floridian.
