dress a lot of sample arms and appendages, the prices of
which are the same, as paid by the U. S. Government, viz :

One Revolving Holster Pistol Carbine..................

30.50

" " Belt " " .................

26.00

" " Holster Pistol............................

22.50

" " Belt Pistol..................................

" Single Barrel Minnie Rifle...........................

10.00

These Pistols and Pistol Carbines are of the same model
and style of finish, as those now being furnished to the Uni-
ted States Government, for the use of the Army and Navy.

We could furnish immediately, say :—

1000 Eevolving Belt Pistols, for Holster or Belt;

200 Kevolving Holster Pistols ;

75 " " " Carbines;

350 Single Barrel Minnie Rifles.

We have such quantities of our various kinds of arms in
progress of Manufacture, that we could furnish much larger
quantities than the above, on very short notice.

We have also in store several hundred of our Revolving
Breech Military Rifles, Artillery Carbines with Sabre Bayo-
nets, Cavalry Carbines of different lengths and calibres,
which we could furnish on the shortest notice, at the prices
paid by the United States Government.

We have enclosed a few samples of our new and improved
Combustible Envelope Cartridges packed in patent water-
proof cases to wish to call your special attention. These
cartidges are believed to be superior in many respects to any
others ever yet manufactured either for military or sporting
purposes.

I send herewith a list of the different sizes made with prices
annexed.

I am sir, respectfully,

Your most ob't servant,

SAM'L COLT.
