Your Correspondent's excellent of imarw, delighted me ; I cud perceive, though totally it 7 norant myself on the subject, rotendity of Iris knoWledge irr •prOjectiles, and I le ioubt but his Majesty's Goveroment will readily adopt a theory which Cannot fail to an tier in tire.

Or, for itistance, 'suppose it to have ail eady reached its destination, might it !tot kip pen, that while in the act of extracting it from its tied, an other, inteiligenee-ball might arrive, so nicely di rected (for neither your Correspondent nor my self doubt our niers ability') 'as to pop into the sante hills, carrying - some poor betel in with it, this would. occasion some delay. Now, Sir, what I have. to prOpase is, that. a . brass ket tle or copper be fixed so that it may receive, rids hollow nieienget . , the sound would he like a bell, to give due notice of its arrival, and by being easily got to hand, fa'cilitate notch the itigeoious eita trivance. So much for my amendment of your Correspondent's - hollow speculation.' Permit ine now, Sir to propose one of my oWn ; but first let ,me state a fact.
