The a report going the round of the press Liat attain ends has a ked to be released from i engagement to create a Channel of thirty feet through the jetties Iid Luis abandoned tie undertaking a a failure. This report Rose from the tact the Captain i. Now in Washington advis ing that a modification of tie plan lie made which will not tie foot Channel to he More than my feet in Width. With Stieh Judth. The j4 foot Channel would probably in Noile a than Khi feet wide and the i l foot Channel about . The under which kids n require a Channel nowhere be than feet deep Width feet and ii is thought that to in ate such a Width of Teet water Between tile jetties would he ill judicious and tend to them. Cap lain kids to Ilie Emit Mittee when the original Hill was being drawn und he in his opinion Liv Obsi nation at the jetties and there foie propose the modifications referred to above. As an inn a a of the flow in to the a can readily Oitai died. Not one tenth Otth whole discharge being Iii in it remains ent icily for the Lovein input to say lie Lii rth shall adhered to 01 not. There is now .1 depth of feet in Hie whole length of tie , and in one part a hollow of us feet in depth a Bein created by the Chi edit through the Jet ties. The terms of the Law tie con Tia Clor has until of next to Crent a Channel of -4 feet deep but so fast a the been advanced that it is probable that a Channel 2 m feel of a depth of feet Wili be obtained month As but cubic Vard Sot material is in the Way of it realization. Captain eau aug for a modification of the Mode of paying him for the work done. I of per of the work to Complete the jetties has been done1, and less than Pel cent of the contract Price been Piid by the inv raiment. The de Lay in payments under the present is so great that it i impossible to push the work As rapidly As Tho Public interests Smith Toltl Kho 110at. A new torpedo boat designed to work under water has in to been brought i the notice of the rarity. And a Model for feet eight inches Long has been made. The boat was originally de signed by the late lord Milton Well known at of Elvorth for his skill As a Mechanic assisted by or. Turner of the same place and recently improved by or. Councillor White of Thorpe near the new torpedo boat is intended to work underwater by Means of Oil air. And in every respect resembles a Tislim. In the forepart or head in arc Are two Large eyes. I rom which radiate a Strong electric Light that will exhibit the keel of an enemy s vessel for a consider Able distance while a powerful rum is placed just above capable of penetrating an Armor Clad. In what May by termed the nostril there Isa by Hydraulic Power and fired by electricity Init in new explosive one Pound of which in a recent test displaced 137 of Iron Stone Titi. The Tail plays in important part Lor it not Only Tho propeller but being pet Lorn Ted on either Side serves to expel either water or foul air. There Are no masts the deck being level while inside the boat is divided in to compartments churned with compressed air. The boat is sunk to tie depth required by taking water in at the Bot Tom and she then could remain nuclei or. White Spates fix i three to nine hours Uli Ile in attacking a vessel t the Speed would be about eighteen knots an hour. Tlu1 21111. Which was Hie invention of Milton from nil others. It is lot tory. But has four Chambers placed like the spokes of a wheel so Liat whip one shot is being Lind a second is being charged a third sponged and a fourth cleaned so that the shots can be fired in rapid succession.

Mrs. Nes Bac found that the in nitty a the phonograph invented by the now celebrated american. Thomas a. Edison of Merilo Park n. Must be regarded As one of the most astonishing triumphs of the human mind Over matter. In it be seen concentrate ajl the results of scientific research into the Phenomena of sound and of vibration. It is in one an car that Chais All sounds that strike it. And a Mouth that repent the a sounds in the same tone and with the same accuracy As they were received but As yet not with volume. It the sounds in the Mot delicate manner marking each vibration devel oped in its sensitive with a distinctness that i. Proved by the perfect reproduction of the sound itself. In this respect it i a perfect phonograph or Romul writer and immeasurably be devised previously by Scott and other. It is to its properties As a sound repro Ducer that the Greate i interest attache. Any appreciable sound whether it i a noise merely or a musical note the when Xiv cough old Man or the Sweet warbling of a Patti the loud Barking of a dog or the scream of n Parrot if once written by Tho phonograph on its sheets of tinfoil can he reproduced therefrom at pleasure a distinctly As it was first emitted. In mechanism the phonograph is simplicity itself. It consists of a Cylinder of Axi revolved steam Power. On the sin face of Tho Cylinder which is about four inches in Diame is Cut a screw thread corresponding exactly in pitch with that Cut on then is Foi the purpose of giving the Colin Dei longitudinal motion. The grooves Between the threads on the Cylinder sur face Are intended to govern the Trace of the Needle or Point attached to the i Bra Tor when paing Over the revolving sin face. The Vibrator h a Small annular Frame of a Cuil. Over the orifice of which is placed a thin plate of tin Tipe. To the Centre of this Pinto i attached n Fine steel or Mineral Point in the direction of the Cylinder that is on the Back part of the tin Type plate when the hitter is a mimed on the instrument. The whole Vibrator is mounted on a movable by Means of which it can be removed com or applied to the Cylinder at will ind clamped in position. Now the instrument has no other parts nit the Cylinder and its Axis and the i in Tor with its what wonderful Are obtained. A Sheet of smooth tinfoil is adjusted around the Cylinder Mil secured in position Wilh a Little gum. I he Vibrator with its adjustable Mouth piece is then moved to the Cylinder and camped in position with its Pointer bearing on the wrapper of tinfoil to such degree that if the Cylinder is revolved the Point will Trace a Groove on its surface corresponding with the threads Cut on the Cylinder surface. The a Para being now ready the operator either applie.-. Power to the Axle Crank or turns it by hand As regularly As possible. At the ame time he or she Speaks whistles groans coughs .sneex.es. Or laughs into the mouthpiece Over the diaphragm until tin. Coli ruler has passed to the limit my ked the Width of the tinfoil Sheet Vibrator is then Zimeli upped and the Point withdrawn until the Cylinder has been revolved Hack to its original . Then the Point of the d is again applied securely to t in Cylinder surface of tinfoil on which has been punctured every vibration of Tho diaphragm due to the sounds uttered in the mouthpiece. A paper funnel is now attached to the Mouth piece and Over the diaphragm for the purpose of concentrating the sound the Cylinder in revolved us before and the phonograph repeats in n Clear tone every word and sound recorded on the tinfoil Sheet. The astonished listeners hear issuing from the instrument the Brown s body lies mouldering in the Ite. With the reinforced chorus note.-, of " glory glory arc., just As they have been Sung into the Mouth piece. Tin1 utterance of a for Mal platform speech Given with every change of intonation. The Emp Husos Are marked and the pauses inflections ac., As perfectly regulated and reproduced As if repeated by the original in a word every sound of a pitch that eau is vibrations of the tin Type diaphragm and thereby the most minute impressions of the Pointer attached to it on the tinfoil wrapper of the Cylinder is matter How Liat sound May be in combination with others. It a cause can be reproduced by the Agency of an effect it is done on the phonograph. To reproduce the sounds that canned the vibrations of the diaphragm and the puncturing of the tinfoil wrap per of the revolving Cylinder it i Only to make the Pointer pass Over and into these punctures and reproduce the vibrations in these latter acting on the air. G be to it the same relate in the same or Der and Energy a Civ Given it by of trails of speech or other causes of the original sound. Hence the conditions of atmospheric vibrations Dike in both Case the same effect Mut he produced and it the sound of Ilie human j causes the diaphragm to vibrate and i Mark the tinfoil the Inver a action of the tinfoil on the1 diaphragm when the Colin Der i revolved causes the reproduction1 of the same series of con sequently the same sounds. Tho process is in ii irely simple that even intelligent find Oine Dittli Cliv in compre Hending it. Thu ii minds Are prepared to wrestle with scientific Dillick Viliy. And they do not perceive How entirely of intricacy Are the operations of cause and effect brought to their notice in the phonograph.
