A gentleman, says the News Letter , has invented a shell which deserves the immediate attention of our Secretary of War. “It is filled with small shells, and when t bursts among ten thousand soldiers thei e smaller shells are scattered in all direction', and bursting in turn, send out still smaller shells, which travel around recklessly, and by the the time the miniature shells contained in the third size explode, the army is nearly wiped out, and the few men remaining want to go to their homes.”
