Almost. as ingenious a wcupon as th celebrated gun which ?as Intended to firo a bullet around a earner, is the double-burn ?!???! cannon the only on ; . In the world"? described by tho Athens (f!a.) Banner. The cannca belonged to the Mifrhel! ! Thunderbolt?, a company of old lucu , organized here in 1803 purely for hom,-? j defense. One of the company, Mr. John ; Gillcinnd, invented this cannon, and ; had It cast at tl:e Athens foundry. , . I A flfty-fo<>t chain, with the ends at- j (ached t<> two cannon balls, was the j charge, and tho Idea of the Inventor wan that when tho balls came out o? ; the muzzle cf the cannon they would i have a tendency to diverge, draw the j chain tnut and mow down an entire j company. The Thunderbolts took the ! cannon cut lufo the country nocir ! Athens one day to test it. It was prcperly chargcd, i?od was ! touched off with Krcat ceremony. One i of the balls got out a littlo ahead of ? the other, and then the mischief was to j pay. It had A kind of circular motion. ? and plowed up about a (juartor of an ' I acre of ground, tho members of the 1 company In the rueantlino scattering | ?n all directions to keep tfevn being Wt.l ! by tho flying chain. Tho old cannon was never used after that #xc*pt nt an occasional democratic jubilee, when charge* of powder would \ bo fired. About five years ago It dis appeared. /tecently U turned up la a junkafcnp, and the city promptly bought It. and wil mount it nMir~tix*~j Confederate monument.
