I havo nat tho tables at baud at this momout, bue [ fancy that a steam proesure of 10,000 pounds to the inch includes w temperaturs CONSIDERADLY HIGHER THAN THAT OF MELTED 1 10N § and, if suchi is tha case, tha conducting of theso experimonts must have boon snliry, ot lonst, al- tliough not, perhaps, in view of cortain Scrip- tural allotmonts for tha hereaftor, a svholly un- wise proparation ou the part of theso models of cantious aud intelligent vorgeity. But thore aré soma other odd thingd in Mr. Scrgoant’s lattor: Ilo states that a gouge to registor 60,000 pounds is being biilt; now, hoe also stntes that Kooly exceedd stenm in tho proportion of 260 to 1; and that stenm “gomottmes " oxceeds 10,000 pounds; thoreforo, the Xeely pressuto must bo gréater thin 250X 10,000, which i 2,500,000 pounds to the inch,— o pressure which certainly shounld bo cnoughi for suybody,~oven a racing Mississippl ougi- neor,——and s cortainly altogother too much for Mr, Sorgoant's chitldiski 60,000-pound gaugo. Thero {8, in fact, a shight téndency to the misty about Mr. Sergennt, that mdkes ono al- most doubiful of bis lituess for a machanical in- vestigatur, A singlo parugraph will illustralo this : Mr, Bergeant says the lcely motive powor cannot bo transmilted at o loss presure than 1,000 pounds ; but that 1t can bo used, of courso, at o lower pressure, after it Is put in actlon. it con ba regulated liko stonm ; but ita trausmission at Jess thun 10,000 pounds caoses its condenan- tion, Ttiw Jiko steawn in this respoct, onty the rossuro at which it can bo transoutted ia tugh igher than that of steam, I'roviously Hargeans snys they arc now using n pair of S.sec’ marino cogidos;—that is, ougines _similar to 8 thg onglde, ooly vory small,—moro togs {o fact, but stll ordinary piston enginea, Now mark: the *motor” forco canuot be transmilled at lesa than 1,000 pounda » loss pressuro causes it to condenao instautly ; but it can bo * regulsted hke stenm,” and “cAn be usod at a fower pressurd after itis once ppt [n {actlon” in the c5lindar of the 8-set. eogines, whore its whol6 cutire sotlon’i3 simply *lrana- mission” from ono end of tho ogliudér to the othor; that is, in tha pipes it is a-thonsaad or nothing, whila in the oyhindor, which {8 simply o prolongation of tha pipo, it is WIIATEVET THE THER CHOOSES | .
