With equal zeal the pew cast-steel four. ders, which are entirely to supersede th iX-pounders, are being manufactured. At Krapp’s, at Essen, no less than 2,370 cast-steel cannon have been ordered by the Prussian and other Govern. ments. ussia is thoroughly reorganizi: her army, and intends in future to use on y rifled cannon, to cast which in bronze, at the rate of 200 a year, arrangements have already been made.
