Casting of Another 20-Inch Gun.
On the lith of February last, the first 20-
inch gun east in this country—and said to bo
the largest gun ever moulded anywhere—was
successfully cant at the Fort Pitt Works In
this city. To-day another gun, of the same
mammoth dimensions, was cast at the same
works. On the occasion of he first achieve
ment we gave a fall description of the gun,
together with the process of casting, and we
need riot at present enter into details. We may
state, however, that these gum, in the rough,
weigh about earredy-fias-1 • • •• • fin
ished will weigh over fifty tons f The w• o e
length of the piece is twenty feet threeinch
ea, Length of bore, seventeen feet six Inches.
The weight of the solid shot Is one thousand
pounds; weight of shell, coven hundred and
fifty pounds; service charge of twerder, one
hundred pounds. This gun, like the flat, I
was test upon the Rodman principle, with a
hollow core ' through which a stream of cold
water will be kept, constantly passing until
the tremens mass of metal cools, which I
proems will require eix or coven days- The
first gun cast L not yet finished, although the
work has been prosecuted as vigorously as
possible, during tee past two months. It is
no easy matter to trim down a mass of metal
from seventpdave tons to fifty tons, and give
it that accuracy of bore and symmetry of out
line which are so essentially necessary to its
utility and beauty. These gone, however,
when finished and mounted, will prove alike
creditable to our mechanical skill and the en
terprise and genius of the nation.
