TRIE A NTL EAE SCLENTIFIC + I . pti pmo The Largest Bynanio of the World, The Age of Steel has been informed that the Binh Electric Company, of Cleve tie Cato, are constructing the largest siviimig in the world. It wid be 12 it, or Liab, long, 5 ft, wide, and weigh 10 tons, The dynamo will give a current of c=) amperes ; number of watts, 240, OK, In other words, it will be four times Low size and eapacity of the “Jumbo” machine exhibited by Edisonat the Looet- riewl bxpostion at Philadelphia, Toe inter was equal to the task of ranuing AHR) sixteen candle-power ineandescont vizhts, This monster machine of the Brush Company will be shipped to Lockport, Mew York, and used for the smelting of abimininm, Five hawdred horse-power will be required to drive it, which will be furnished by water, with the aid of tur bine wheels. From the particulars given hy our contemporary it would appear that the dynamo in question will be the most powerful in existence; but the largest dynamo ever constructed is, to our knowl. eige, that designed by Mr. J KE. H. Gor don, and built by the Telegraph Con- struction and Maintenance Company, Eaat Greenwich, Mr. Gordon's enorii- ous dynamo was 13 ft, 4 in. by 7 ft, and its total weight 18 tons, the revolving mag- net wheel alone weighing 7 tons, its dinm- eter being 8 ft, 9 in. Itselectrical power, however, is inferior to the new Brush «dynamo, and it may be said that the lat ter represents four years’ progress in dyna- wo construction, ‘he Highest Observatory In Cuarope. In the heart of the province of Salz- burg, on the Sonnblick, which rises toa Leight of 10,177 feet, a great meteorolog- ical observatory, the highest in Europe, has just been erected, which will be in immediate communication with the cen. tral Meteorological Office at Vienna, The walls are over a metre thick, Telephonie communication has been éstablished from the summit of the mountain, across the Goldberg glacier down into the Raunris valley, and when the telegraph wires shall bave been extended from Taxen- bach the communication will be com- plete. The view from the snmmit is wagnificent, ranging over a great part of the Tyrol, Carinthia, and Salzburg. The roof is of copper, chietly on account of its electrical advantages. The situation is very exposed, and is a sort of centre for the discharge of electrical disturbances, There were many oportunities of watch- ing the behaviour of lighting during the erection of the building. Dr. Hann, the director of the Central Meteorological In stitute at Vienna, has superintended all the arrangements, - —— Tux Institute of Technology, at Bosion, long ago decided upon the danger of steam pipes passing through and in con- tact with wood. It was shown that the wood, by being constantly heated, as sumes the condition, to a greater or less degree, of fine charcoal, a condition high- ly favorable to spontaneous combustion A Lae observer, Mr. E. Sandford, re- ports having made a common snail carry a load of two and a quarter ounces up a perpendicular wall, its own weight being about a quarter of an ounce. A snail weighing a third of an ounce drew a load ounces on a horizontal table, and supported four onnces while crawl mg on the ceiling. It even climbed a thread with another snail on its back. To cur glass tubes by electricity, an of sevenieen iron wire one half minim in diameter is wound around the tube at the place required to be cut, and the ends » on ected by means of copper conductors of the diameter with the pole wwerful battery. This iron becomes Ronted when the current flows, and it is only necessary to cool it suddenly few drops of cold wateg in order to pro cure a clear cut. in diameter are now cut in this way Wg have met with the following cheap mode for painting out door structures Make four gallons of paste of rye flour, like the paste used for papering rooms, and then mix in one gallon of common oil paint. This will cover as much sur- face as five gallons of paint alone, For the second coat add two gallons of oil; and three for the third. These three coats will last about as long as three coats of oil paint. A good paint for brick is ade of fresh lime wash and sulphate of n Sin Joseph Whitworth was the first to inaugurate a system of Standard screw threads. The form of thread, and the number of threads per inch which he recommended, were partly onthe results of numerous experiments and partly on the average obtained by com- pairing the various forms of screwed bolts then in use. The Whitworth system has been very generally adopted in all parts of the civilized world except the United Staten. The Seller system introduced here in 1864 has the same number of threads per inch, but the form of the thread is different. I Wines and bars are now luced dir. ect from fluid steel by prosing it through dies in a manner similar to produc. tion of lead pipes from lead. An iron vessel, lined with refractory material, is provided with a man hole, and a cover at the top and securely closed. At the bot tin, ite the man hole, there is a cast iron outlet pipe, through which passes a steel tube with water circulating around it like a “tuyere,” by which the steel pipe or die can be The inner end of the steel tube is lined with fire clay, where the hot iid Mook ntets t tube is ued ] a steel stop Tha tolls ov qu soe! is Hiled into the vessel with liquid earbon dioxide above i.
