3fitehle, ose n of the electric light on
`Thursday evening was eo intere.sting 'and splendid,
was enabled to make a more satisfactory measure-
Inept of the illuminating power of the battery at
e State House than I had the means of tieing on
the occasion of its former exhibition on the 4th of
July. As the results of the observation then made
were published in your paper, it may perhaps inte
rest some of your readers to, have a statement of
these later confirmatory awl afire accurate measure.
mente. The battery in question, consisting of 250
Bunsen pairs of the largest size commonly used, was
arranged in the dome of the State House, and the
carbon light and the photometric apparatus Prepared
for the purpose were placed in line across the same
apartMent, commanding a range of about fifty
feet. In view of the immense power of the light,
as observed in the preirious experiment. I substi
tuted for the 20 candle gas-burner, used at - that
time as the standard of coniparison, a unit ten times
as greet, formed by the flame of a kerosene lamp
placed in the focus of asmall parabolic reflector, and
throwing its concentrated light on a photomet ric
screen of prepared paper fixed in front of it, at the
distance of five feet. Before the observation, the
lamp and reflector were so adjiisted as to make the
light cashon the near.skle of the screen equivalegt
by measure to the action of 200 candles.
A platform supporting the standard lamp and
screen at the assigned distance was arranged to slide
on a horizontal graduated bar, extending directly to
ward the carbon points, sothat the screen should re
ceive the rays from the electric light and from the
reflector perpendicularly on its opposite faces, In
making the observations the platform was moved to
and fro until the illumbfation on the opposite sides
of the screen was judged to ,be equal, and then the
measured distances of the two antagoniztog lights
from the screen gave by easy computation their rela
tive illuminating power.
By a series of such observations it was found that
the carbon light had a force varying from 62 to II
times that of the lamp with reflector, making it equi
valent in illuminating power to the action of from
10,000 to 12,000 standard sperm candles pouring their
light from the same distance upon the surface of the
screen. This. it will he remembered, is the effect of
the unaided carbon light sending its rays equally in
all directions from the luminous centre, and falls,
vastly short of the illuminating force of the cone of
collected rays which was seen stretching like the
tail of a comet from the surface of the great reflec
tor. Judging from some recent experiments on the
power of such a reflector to augment the intensity
of the light emanating from its focus, there can be
no 'doubt that along the axes of the cone, when
brought to its narrowest limits, the illuminating
force of the cat bon light as displayed on the State
House could be rivalled only by that of several
millions of candles shining unitedly along the same
line.
In concluding this brief notice of experiments
and results, which are not without ardent' de as well
as popular interest, allow me to express the satin.
faction which all must feel in the thought that our
city has been the first in this country, and perhaps,
regarding the magnitude and success of the experi
ment, the first in the world to make ;the splendors
and the wonders of the electric light a familiar nub
ile entertainment as well - as a chosen illustration
of patriotic feeling. W. B. R.
The Boston Journal says : " A, correspondent in
forms us that the electric light was seen from Mo.
nadnock mountain, in Jaffrey, N. H., which is about
eighty miles from Boston by road. The effect is
thus demo ibed : • The night was not favorable for
observation from the mountain, as there was a heavy
mist °nand around it, and some fog; still we saw the
light very distinctly, and at two or three times it
seemed to have a peculiar brilliancy, throwing jets
of light up until they were lost in &dark cloud which
seemed to hang between urf and thd . light. Whether
those jets were occasioned by the motion or revolu
tion--of the light, or by the sudden shifting of the
very heavy mist or fog by the strong wind which
was blowing at the time, we could not tell.' t•
TIINIZEL AT Carenoo.—The Work of
tunneling under the lake-fore. the purpose of obtain
ing a supply of water for the use of .the citizens of
Chicago, tree alike from the impurities:ef sewerage
and shore washings. hat been decided on by the
Common Council, and taken in hand actively by the
Board of Public Works. A series of boring experi
ments have been made. with a view of ascertaining
the nature of the soil through which the tunnel will
pass, and the result is highly satisfactory, each trial
showing that, aside from a sandy deposit of a few
inches in depth, the bed of the lake is a homogene
ous clay, the best material possible through which
to drive a tunnel.
commencing at the location of the present water
works, a tunnel will be run out a distance of two
miles under the bed of the lake, in a direction per
pendicular to the shore line , being about two points
to the north of east, which will place the terminus
opposite the extension of Division street. The tun
nel will be five feet in diameter inside, formed of
brick, and cemented, unless a vitreous solution
should be used, for which the board has received an
offer. The tunnel will slope towards the shore, so
as to admit being emptied in case repairs are needed,
the water being cut off at the supply end by means
of a - gate. The depth will be about sixty-five feet
below the surface, which will insure solidity in the
clay excavated, carrying the work below the sand
in every part, sufficient to insure against flooding by
rupture before completion.
The tunnelling will be effected by sinking shafts
at intervals of a little more than three.quarters of a
mile, so as to allow of the work being prosecuted in
six places at once. One will be sunk at the ter
minus, two miles out ; one at the shore, and two
-others intermediately. It was at first intended to
sink them at intervals of half a mile, but, from some
reason or other, that idea has been abandoned.
The plan of the crib to be used at each shaft is pen
tagonal, or consisting of live equal sides circum
scribed about a circle, whose diameter is eighty feet,
and will be about forty feet from base to top. It
will be built of pine timbers, a foot square, and at
distances of eleven feet clear will be two other inter
nal structures of the same strength of material, leav
ing a central space whose inscribed circle will be
thirty feet. These frameworks will be suitably
braced together and bolted with thirty-inch bolts or
naillymaking the whole crib as firm and compact as
if composed of one solid piece.
The crib built on shore, and the base being
'floored, it will lie. figated to the required position
and there sunk by tilling up with stones is the com
partments. Three small orifices in the inner course
are for the purpose of letting in water as required.
An iron cylinder of nine feet in diameter will then
be placed ou end in the central space, its own
weight forcing it through the soil. A cap made air
tight will then be placed on the top, and the air and
water exhausted by means of a pneumatic apparatus.
The superincumbent atmospheric pressure will send
it dawn to the required depth. A brick wall will
then be builtarno , Tlintiss—with_circular cavi
ties in the direction of - the tunnel., ariff - the'real
work, the digging of the earth for the main tube,
will then commence and be carried- on from
each end, and in both directions from the
intermediate shafts, the earth being taken away
on scows as fast as brought up to the surface.
The cribs will be covered with a house each, as a
protection to the works and workers against storms,
thus enablingthem to continue their labors in rough
weather, if not of so lorig duration as to prevent
the removal of material till it has accumulated in
very large quantities. This protection will be ne
cessary, too, as a provision against the winter's
frost. The work being completed, the intermediate
cribs will be removed, and the ultimate one will be
covered with a light-house, which will answer the
combined purpose of protecting the aperture and
apparatus for shutting off the water, preventing
contact of vessels, and furnishing a means of more
easily finding the harbor at night.
The tunnel, divided into three sections, with a
squad of men operating at each end, will be com
pleted in something leas than three hundred days of
twenty-f Our hours each, admitting that the work is
not interfered with by unforeseen accidents, or re
tarded by a soil less favorable to progress than the
borings already made would indicate.—Chicago
Times.
A TIN MINH IN MISSOURL—The discovery of a
tin mine in Missouri is announced by a correspon
dent of the Scientific American. If the report be true
and the mine workable, no more important discovery
has beer recently made public. We, have heretofore
been entirely dependent upon England and the East
Indies for our supply of this important metal. The
writer alluded to says, in hie communication
" The lode has a northeasterly and southeasterly
hearing, extending nearly one mile, and the two
deepest shafts are about three-quarters of a mile
apart, The tract embraces about one thousand
acres, but the ore is not thought to underlie the
whole of it. The great body of the ore lies nestling
in a beautiful valley, at the foot of three mountains,
whose bases approach each other on a gentle slope,
and at the head of a ravine running up from Saint
- Francois river and Stout's creek, among the moun
tains.
" These mountains are separated by pretty rivulets
running down their sides and gathering into one at.
their. bases, making a fine and enduring stream of.
water. flowing the whole length of the tract, and in
abundance for all mining purposes. The ore, doilbt
less, extends under what is called the Blue Moun
tain, if it does not also under the other two moun
tains."
CAnnatf.—For several years certain parties have
endeavored to induce our Government to build a
cannon to Weigh not over 15,000 or 16,000 pounds, ca
pable of throwing an 800 to I,ooo.pound projectile at
a high velocity. They have always been met with
the argument : that such a cannon was opposed to
the natural laws of force and resistance, and could
not be built. We now see that Krupp, of Prussia,
in the present year, has made a 11 %- inch gun, weigh
ing 17,666 and discharges a bolt weighing 1,000
rounds. This gun, like the one proposed to Go
vernment, is a breech-loader. A few such guns
would soon level Fort Sumpter.—Boston Journal.
THE DEATH OF SIR CREBSIVELL ORESSWELL.—
Sir Creswell Creswell, one of the most eminent
judges on the English bench, died recently from the
effects of injuries received in the Park from a ruff
aim horse. He was the fourth son of Francis
Earderby, Esq., of Blackheath, who, on marrying
an heiress of John Cresswell, Esq., of Cress well,
took the name of that ancient Northumbrian ^ fami
ly. He received his education at Cambridge. and in
1819 was called to the bar at the Middle Temple.
In 1837, Mr. Creswell was elected to the House of
°Dilutions as member for Liverpool, and continued
to represent that city till 1942, when he was ap
pointed one of the Justices of the Common Pleas,
and invested with the rank of knighthood.. In the
year 1868, after the passing of the bill abolishing the
old Ecclesiastical Courts of Doctor's Comer:lns. with
regard to probate of wills, divorce, and matrimonial
causes, and substituting a special and exclusive ju•
risdiction for those cases, Sir Oresswell Oresswell
was appointed by Lord C/rartworth as the most fit
ting person on the judicial bench to till the office of
Judge Ordinary at that court, and by a special act he
took rank and precedence next to the Lord Chief
Earon.
The London Times thus refers to his subsequent
/shore " .
The. work 6 , which Sir Oresswell Cromwell will
be remembere dis the creation of the Divorce Court.
Sir Creswell Cresswell was appointed to preside
here in January, 1868. It was an experiment dig- ,
trusted at the time by the public, and most danger- .
ous to the reputation of the man who should first
undertake it. Sir Creswell ore:swell's confidence
in' himself allowed him to accept it, and, as that
self-confidence was, fortunately in his case, well
founded, - tt enabled hint to carry it through. To him
chiefly it is owing that the Divorce Court .has-been
a .great success, lie has made a code of divorce
law by his decisions, and helms based it upon sound,
broad ,principles. As a social lawgiver, Sir Cress
well Cromwell Was great as Lord Mansfield is as a
mercantile' lawgiver. He has built a bridge in
chaos ; and if his successor has the prudence to
keep to it- he may travel without any very violent
falls.
The building up of a new system of law must have
grown to be a labor of love with Sir Clresswell
Cromwell. He had long since earned his pension.
He was rich in private means ; he was childless,
and, indeed, unmarried. It could only have been
an absorbing interest in his work, and a desire to
consolidate the practice of hie court, which could
have -induced him to toil on, in a drudgery which
must have caused him frequent disgust and con
tinual labor. It is true that he was generally ap
preciated by his countrymen and countrywomen,
and was, doubtless, conscious that he was doing his
work -well; but-in the work itself be could have
taken no pleasure. He was ,a hard-working, con
scientious, and successful public servant,- and his
life has been useful., How few there are who die,
-and of whom so'much as this can be truly said ; and
who is there among us of whom we could truly say
much morel .- -
Tan HARViram WORK.—Already . , the golden
bearded grain is falling . before the sickle ; the
Teepees song is heard from 66 morn till dewy eve."
and the fruitful fields with theirilong swaths of
garnered-treasure, seem like a supimer sea whose
brightness charms and dazzles the eye. Nerd to a
great victory, the assurances of liountiful crops and
a successful harvest are most gratifying, and we
have every reason to believe that our crops this
year will not only be satisfactory, but better than
the average in quantity and qUality. The weather
has continued favorable in most parts of the coun
try, and farmers have improVed their opportunity.
In all the Western States, the heavier part of the
harvest is nearly over, and the new crop of
. grain iq
beginning to come in. •
Already quantities of new_white wheat have been
offered in Illinois at one dollar and five cents per
bushel,. In Minnesota the wheat crop will be equal
to last year, but hands are scarce and wages high,
while frem other parts of the extreme West the ac
counts are most enthusiastic of the success and
abundance of the harvest. In Pennsylvania the
grain crops are about harvested, and the. yield is
much larger than the average. Corn is alaibst
everywhere reported in a backward condition but
"considerable has been planted, and if the hot and
moist weather should continue throughout AngUstt
she crop cannot be less than a full one. Rye, oats,
and barley are generally good, and there are no ap
prehensions of a scarcity of these staples. The bar
vest everywhere promises beneficent results. With
fair weather, and no lack of assistance, the crops
will be secured in good order, and plenty will reign
the land.
"THE Httiontrt Tititts."--A. correspondent of the
Boston Daily Arivertiscr writes : I notice that the
press at the " Huh " is gradually adopting a phrase,
with which our brethren at the " Metropolis" have
lately enriched the English language—l mean
"heated term," to indicate what. in &ogle-Saxon.,
is called " a hot spell" of weather. I would recom
mend that this rich vein should be worked a little
deeper, and that we should call the "cold snap,"
which usually occurs in February, the " cooled
term ;" the part of March, when high winds prevail,
th e " blowed term it , the middle of April the " wetted
term, and the Indian summer "the smoked tarp."

' CRefere Mr. Alderman Welding.)
Crushed Truth 'alma. Klee Again.
Captain Henry TJneer, formerly the commander of
'a company in Col. Hermann Segebarth's ad Penn
sylvania Heavy Artillery Regiment, was arraigned,
yesterday afternoon. before, Aid. Weldor charged
with the larceny of the sum of one thnueand five
hundred dollars, which had been handed to him by
Col. S. to be paid to the members of the company.
The following evidence was elicited:
Col. Hermann Segehnigh sworn.—l was the col°.
nel of the 3d Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery; I re
ceived money from the citizens , bounty fund, to he
paid to the men in the organization ; I paid out a
portion of the fund to the different captains, re
serving some of the pay to keep the men from de
serting. To Captain Unger I gave $1,600, and ex
pressly told him not to pay it out at present to the
=BD, but to keep it until further orders from me;
this was the instruction I gave to him ;,the captain
agreed to do so: about fourteen days after this, .I
Was ordered, by the Rlayor of Philadelphia, to pay
all the men of my regiment; I issued the neces
sary order, and Captain Unger said that he had
spent some of the money, and that he would have to
go to Philadelphia to get the amount made up ; he
saddled his horse and drove away. and that is the
last I saw of him ; he left the United States service,
and I heard that he had escaped to Canada; it was
by such work as this that, for the time, my reputa
tion was ruined; I arrived in Philadelphia an eve
ning or two since; a friend called upon me and said
that Capt. Unger was in town and wanted to see
me, with the view of having the affair arranged ;
warrant bad been issued for him for some time, and
he was arrested ; the defendant admitted to the
friend that called on me that I had paid him $1,500 ;-
I can have the friend here if it is considered neoes-
Alderman Welding here instructed the defendant
that he had the right to ask the witness any ques
tions he might choose as touching the case.
He replied that be had sent a friend to Clolonel
Segebarth with the view of arranging a settlement
of the affair, and did riot think he ought to be ar
rested.
*The defendant was required to enter bail in the
sum of two thousand dollars to answer at court.
We may say here that a German substitute broker
was present, who seemed to be highly excited against
Colonel Segebarth, but caused the arrest of the
captain.
The community will, perhaps, remember the seve
ral arrests of Colonel Segebarth for not paying his
men the bounty money, for which he was bound
over on three separate chargea in the sum of five
thousand dollars each. This bail was reduced by the
zourt, after a hearing on a writ of habeas corpus.
The circumstances looked black against the ac
cused. The parties were all German, and the affair
could not be well explained. Besides this, the hear
ing was ex parte. to which we directed attention at
the time. Col. 'S. has, however, outlived the ca
lumny. and now' the truth begins to flash out that
he was far more sinned against than sinning.
[Before Mr. Alderman Baitler
Superintendent Bound Over
Mr. Superintendent Doric:anon, of Washington
Square, was held to bail by Alderman - Beitler. on
the charge of committing, an assault and battery
unon a couple of young men in-Washington Square.
This was across action. The young men and a
young woman had been arrested and bound over by
Alderman Dougherty, as has been publicly stated.
The whole height and front of the offending of the
young men was simply they expressed themselves
that the superintendent was entirely . too rough in
handling the young woman. The young men were
seated in the Square when she passed along. They
were strangers to her. She stopped and engaged in
conversation. The superintendent came along and
,temp her away. The young men followed to the
oftlige, and were then arrested by the superintendent.
This constituted the assault and battery upon them.
[Before &fr. II S. Commissioner Smith.
The Substitute Business.
John-Tiger, a resident of the Nineteenth ward, was
arraigned resterday, at the United States Commis
sioner's offlce 2 on the charge of enticing a soldier to
desert his regiment and to go as a substitute in place
of a drafted man. The soldier was detected and
made a clean breast of the affair. The defendant
was required to enter ball in the sum of $5OO to
answer at the present term of the court.

N. O. Radler. BBG..Asent for Safes
DSA.R SIR : During the night of May 19, 1.8&9. our Ore
eery and Provision Store, at North Second and Willew
streets, took fire at about 2 o'clock I. M., and as the
store was a two-story wood building it burnt rapidly.
and before the fire-engines could act nnon the fire, our
whole stock of goods, including much combustible ma
terial, and amounting to over 12.000. were wholly de
stroyed. We had one of your No. 11 Chilled Iron Safes,
which was in the hottest part of the fire, andftt came on;
of the fire not in the least injured, except the melting of
of the name, platemni paint. The contents inside were
not affected in the Met. and we consider the Safeinst se
good a protection against fire now as before, and shall
use it hereafter with increased confidence. The lock
works as perfectly as before the fire.

Attention to the above certificate is -particularly re

Burylar-proof Safe that LILLIE'S WROUGHT' AND

only real Fire and Burglar-proof Safes now made; and
to those who want simply a Fire-proof,l would say that
