I a in conditions, as naturally lo the eailh as rain
; flu(jl of eoa;o boJy n'i,ich atiracts it, it pro-
does. I.rdrss, therefore, II conies wiilua tile m-
ni,li in a Klraiulit course to the earth. The ob
ji it that lies in its path becomes its conductor,
whether it be a lice, a dwelling, or anything;
else, high or low. It will be seen, llierelore, j
that a rod whose only merit is its cupal.ilily ol
e.inebicliiig llic lii;bliiing lo the ground, afler it i
has received it, is of but little value ; inasmuch I
as any oiher part of the building is j i.-l as likely i
lo be in its paih, and receive th-; stroke, as the !
rod. A house, to be protected by fueh rods, j
nu?l needs be surrounded by them; aud herein
ronsbis one of the priniipal merits of my 10'ec- !
Iro-Magni't Kml., viz: that liny possess ail at
i,(,!ule attraetiou for the lishtriin?, Ilius actimlly !
invitinc and dianin" it fiom ihe cloud when iu
d macrons pioiimity lo the buiblinir, ami cairy
ing il safely to the ground, thereby creating au
equilibrium belncen the cloud and the sueround
ing atmosphere, and thus prevcnlirig a slroko.
Another opinion which is held by many, and
which is very erroneous, is lhat roils require in
tulatii. This object would be very desirable,
if it could be attained ; but this is tinpossible.
As glass is a non-conductcr only whe n dry, and j
becomes, by U'lng wel, a geod conductor, u:c
si ace between the eUssandlhe rod becomes, ilu- i
ring a shooer, filled up by impedimenta. Ihu af- j
forehiii! a free passaiiB to the elecl.ic fluid, whith !
naturally abandons the smaller for the Ixrger
body if the latter is a got! a conductor ; il
therefore flies fiom the rod to the glass, con.-u-
ming ibe moisture (whirh enndurtrd it) as it
passes; and as the stay-nail or staple which passas
round the glass is nccessaiily larger than the
glass or rod, and therefore presents a greater sur
face (it being well understood that lightning tra
verses the surface of its conductors), il passes
from the glass to the staple, and by this is con
ducted into whatever it is attached to. The re
sult is the destruction of the property. All this
is no secret. It lakes place evciy summer, es
pecially in the country, simply because more rods
are put uy. on lUi. plwn lhr than id Ibe. cities.
Another point on which great stress is laid, is
the use of cerew-joints on tho different sections
of the rod. My objection to this plan is, that
the joints are very apt to rust ; in fact, but little
time is required lo break the connection al every
joint, the surface of which becomes coatid wiih
a dry bard crust which destroys the metallic
connection. This is n great disadvantage to the
rod, for the fluid is liable to be thrown from it at
al each joint ; thus exposing the building lo llic
full severity of the stroke.
This difficulty is obviated by u.-ing lurn-eycs
I o .. t . I . il uMw.ifiinl. Ilu '." n j 11 f I i , io UC f
obtain, wiibonl reducing the size of the rod. an !
extension of its surface. I arrango a rpring be
low the ground in such. a manner as to keep the
different sections of the rod always in couucclion
with each other. The advantage of this sprint;
ia that it Contracts and expands, according to ihe
expansion and contraction of the rod ; thus secu
ring, at all limes, tho same degree of pressure on
each section of the rod. A square rod should
always be used in preference to a round one.
The difference in price is very trifling, and the
advantage very great. A lightning-rod, especi
ally its lop serliun, should be made much heavier
liian many that are put up. Another very great
defect in most rods i, lhat they are not placed
suflicicnily deep in tho ground to teach the
moisture in lime of a drought. Thi is a rm.i
ler which should be regulated according lo the
character of the soil ; from six to ten feet is usu
ally the rrri.er depth. Inattention tu this matter
ofte n been productive of serious consequences.
I be manner of driving a stay-nail or staple,
when used to attach a rod lo a buildinj, requires
judgment. It should always be driven up
wards so as lo allow the water to drop from
Ihe outer end, instead of following the course of
the staple into Ihe material into which il is driv
en. '1 he stay-nail should always be in metallic
connection tviih the rod at the lime of tlie stroke;
as the fluid descends ihe mil, the slnplc is as
much charged, in proportion to the size, as the
rod ; but Ihe fluid will not leave a stronger for a
weaker conductor, more edpeeialiy tvhe ri the sta
plo is driven into a hard dry wail, wbieh pos
sesses no attraction, and the rjj is in connection
with damp earth, which acts, in this respect, lil;e
a suction-pump. A rod such as 1 hate dccnbeil,
with a proper point and r!u-ter, will aud niu-l
protect a building from lightning.
And now the question occurs, w hat is a prop
er puiul 1 Many rods that I have seen, which
have beeu put up duiing the pa.-t summer, have
point of copper, zinc, lead, casl iron polished,
Ac, which, il is needless for mo to say, are ul
teily worthless.
Hut Ihrre are some persons, who, in imitation
of my patent, profess lo put up a magnetic point
or points ; llirse arc nothing but the ordinary
magnets, which can be made out of a tenpeuny
nail. They possess no power, or attraction fur,
electricity whatever ; neither can they bear the
slightest stroke of lightning. j
A proper electric point lor a lightning-rod can
I formed only in one way, and that is by chem
ically combining certain kinds of metal in sne-h a
manner as to make a point not liable to fusion
one whirh will stand the severe: I siruke of lighi
ning without receiving tho (.lightest injury. A
rod wiih a point of this kind at a proi.tr height
in the atmosphere, and in metallic communica
tion with ihe moist eailh, acts precisely on the
same principle as the wires of a telegraph in
carrying tho elect ririty from point lo point. On
the near approach of a storm, the olmevphcre
becomes filled with electricity ; when it is over
charged, stroke takes place ; Ibe lightning, lea
ping from ihe cloud and darling lo the earth,
pasting over or through whatever liw in its
path, carries dealli and destruction with it.
In this condition of a Hubs, imagine a body
placed in contact with a cl.iid, which baa Ilia
. power to attract and draw oft ihosupcrdbuiidante
l ol electric fluid, and carry it lo ihn ciounj.
I This ii flumei I- eicr'cd 'vi'h'n s !s ot a' out
sixty feel in diameter. The atmosphere included
within this space is leu surcharged wiih electri
city than that which surrounJs it. Hence the
fluid from a neighboring cloud must first fill
up this vacancy, mid create an equilibrium with
the surrounding atmosphere, bcloie it can pro
ceed further. Thus the severity of the stroke is
consumed and exh lUMeu, and the balance, if
any, is cariicd lo the earth, without the slightest
danger of leaving the conductor. A barn tilled
with hay or grain is very liable to be struck,
because the quantity of clecliicity that will nal
urally accumulate and force its way thrnuch the
roof, will form a conductor frequently one hun
dred feet in height. Now if the electric stroke
comes in contact wilh the elcctiiciiy thm gene
rated, it will be conducted at once to the place
at which the latter has tan formed. Il
Die contents of the barn were ou the
ground, the d uiker w ul.l not be so great,
because the earth would ubsorb the grriter por-
lion ot the electricity, which il can not do when
and the crops of a whole season, by inviting a
stroke from every passing cloud.
I have reatedly cautioned the public against
a set of swindlers who are traveling about the
country, selling and pulling up worlhh'ss rods,
freiiueully using my name, and representing the
rods ihev sell to be i f mv manufuclure. I re-

'J'he subscriber having (as before stated) put
up near six thousand rod-i, and never having
heaid of a loss by lightning ill any builJing
lo wbieh one ol his rods has licen att'K'hcd, fee ls
great confidence in urging lheir superiority to
any others in u-e. He phages kimse-lt to restore
to any one the aim unt pjid for llic lod if loss is
sull'-ied through its iiieliieiency. A buu.se
should not bo consiJeie.l tini-hed without it has
at least one lighti.it.g-iod ; y.-l very many build

refl'i'lon tlieinstlvcs for their willul iii'gleet.
The means of protection ae nitbin tlie rcaih of

a seveie sttoke of lightning, which passed safely
