The Burglar Gun We have recently. witnessed tlx pari furmiince ,of this extraordinary gun; end whether eoliHiderrd in reference lo the Certainty end efficiency with which it per formed it* functions. or its adrni* rable adaptation to our want", in time* of "Uch general demoralisation, we were led lo I ha cOriclurion that, sooner or latef, it mu>t come into general use, end take rank as one of die wutl traluable discoveries of the time*. 'The ciedit of ihi* invention ie due to Hie lion. John Wilson, of Anderoon, S. C. And it ie underetood that the idea was suggested to bis mind by the net of an audacious burglar who entered his office in the night-time, with intent to commit felony, and ma Ie a clean sweep of the contents of parse and pocket book \ We predict, however, that a similar experiment will not be made upon bit honor during <be re marnder of "his lifetime, (lis name, henceforth, will be inseparably connect ; ed with, and always suggestive of this faithful, sleepless seuiiuel, and bis worldly effects much better secured against burglar* and thieves than tbejr could have been by locks, and bolts, and bars. This burglar gun, like ail fullv perfected inventions, unites in an eminent degree, both simplicity and efficiency. These are the leading elements of their usefulness, and must convincing proofs of tbe genius of the inventor. The whole structure Consists of a gun or pistol, resting on a pivot, or upright rod proeedwg from the centre of a hollow noetnlic drum, about the *iee end shape of ? peck measure. Within this druui ia planted (tie machinery that gives rotary motion to the rod, on which the gun reata, ao that it ia made to fire in any one of four direction*, instantly and aith fatal effect. Four very deli cate aire* proceed from thK internal machinery in opposite or different di rections, to any point that may be *e lected within the range of the weapon. There wirea, aiwaya in a atatt of alight tension, cannot he touched without au immediate discharge from the pistol, but, by far (he most a*toui?hing feature of the performance ia, that (be dia charge ia aiwaya precisely in the direction of the wire touched. For, although the gun may he pojpting in ho opposite direction, in the course of either of the other wire*, it inMautly resyouds to the burglar's touch, lurua on ita pivot, and fire* at him. . . The writer ie not acquainted with the ingeniously planned m?chatii?m by which the inventor ha* imparted such precise perceptive power* to hie haul ling, but ia well a*eured that it baa been done at a co*t of much thought and uneurpaeaed ingenuity. But, in forming an estimate of the merita of tliia invention, the great quee lion to be solved in advance ia. a* to the piactical advantages to be'derived from it ; and the propriety of it* use as a resource against burglars and tbievee, in a moral point of view. As respects the fir*f, it i* beyond all question one of the most reliable safeguard*, and uncompromising sentinel*, ever placed in charge of the property of a citizen. It effectually supercedes the necessity of] all other means of security. Locks may be dispensed with and doors thrown widely open, and yet the answer of the sentinel, could the inventor have iinnart ed (lie power of -pencil, to the question, u Watchman, what of the night, would always be, "The day is daWning, and all fa weH.n lis efficiency has been tested in many localities, and in every instance with complete suecees.

At to the moral tight of a eitisen to plaee a deadly weapon in charge of bis ptoperty, it would seem to us unquestionable.

This department of industry and enterprise n already over-stocked with competitor* ?so much so, that if hundreds weri destroyed annually by Wilson's gun, ii would not amount to an appreciable diminution of their number. Iiul the protection to property afford ed by this gun is not necessarily limited to the above named enclosures ?

The bare fact, a* soon as known, that t citizen bad purchased a burglar gun or. that some two or three neighbor* had procured one to he owned In com mon, and exchanged to meet their sev eral necessities as lliey might arise would amount to a never-billing resource for the protection of their right*1 T*,.. -a-. ...?i? .... ..I*, ... .IH'UHU ination uf the subject in all its relation* la forced to regard I lie bursar gun will special favor; nor, hit* lie any doubt but that, if brought into general use and ibe manner uf uritfg it, and the lo entities in which it ahould be placed regulated by law, with heavy penalties annexed for a reckless and iinprope uee of it, but that it would aoon be re garded aa an invaluable acquisition It the beat interest* of society.
