      1855 . —JOYCE'S PATEMT WATERPROOF AMT 1-CORROSfVE PERCUSSION CAPS . F JOYCE has much pleasure in submitting to the notice of Sportsmen a greatly Improved Percussion Cap , for which a patent was granted on the 3 rd of April last , and which can bo warranted as the best Primer for Detonating Guns ever manufactured , whether for the As 3 £ T , Navt . or the Pieud . The . principle on which these Caps arc made differs materially from any hitherto adopted ; in lien of Metallic Foils or Linings , as they are termed , and other substances of an equally injudicious character , which cannot be consumed without the introduction of tho most corroding materials , theset Patent Caps have their detonating composition covered with a highly waterproof substance , burning with as much facility a » the powder itself , and in no degree detracting from that certainty and sharpness of fire , as well as anticorrosive property , bo necessary for the convenience and comfort of those who use tlium . JOYCE'S PATENT CAPS are equall y certain in nil weather , wet or dry , and if firmly pressed down on tho nipples , will close the apertures and render tho powder in tho barrels air-tight , kceping . it quite dry . Sportsmen are recommended to re-load aasoon as possible in nnsty and wet weather , otherwise tho moisture deposited inside the barrel damps tho charge and occasions hang-fires . —Manufacturer of Wijie Caburidges and Waddings of every description .
