Hurst and Bllekett, 13, Great Afar:borough-street Mr. Gibbs has aho patented an ingenious appa ratus for throwing the sheaves, as fast as they are dried, upon the rick. A fan, which is very simple and portable, is driven by the engine ; the sheaf is put into a lateral opening in the tube which leads to the rick, and which is easily adjustable to any re quired height, and is gently deposited almost in the very spot it is to occupy. We have described the arrangement which is most suited for drying wheat. When hay is to be ope rated on, it is very convenient, besides employing the heated gases from the furnace, to transmit the waste steam into a shed, which contains a recipient for the steam, in the form of a horseshoe, within and around the arms of which is placed the hay that is to be dried.

Remembered seeing Roylan in his own house at a quarter past 4 on the afternoon of the 18th ult. Another advantage of this ingenious and most practical contrivance is that it gives full employ ment to the engine, and the workpeople of the farm, exactly at those times when other kinds of labour would be impossible, and at a very inconsiderable expense, since the heat of the waste steam, and of the products of consumption produced by the very act of threshing, supplies the threshing-machine with wheat in a perfectly dry state, however wet and unfavourable the weather ; the only expendi ture of force being the small quantity required for communicating to the fan a velocity of from six to eight hundred revolutions per minute. Several witnesses were then called to prove an alibi in the case of the prisoner Shore. Isabella Fee, a beer-house keeper, and her son, stated that on the afternoon of the outrage Shore was in their house at 5 minutes to 4 o'clock.

Yesterday morning there was a special supplica tion at the Cathedral of St. Mary, Moorfields, for his Holiness the Pope, with a sermon by the Most Rev. Dr. Manning, Archbishop of Westminster, having reference particularly to recent events. The supplication was in the form of a special prayer, and the Archbishop preached from the words of the Gospel of St. John—" If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you." He said that if the first Sunday of October were not by immemorial use the festival of the Holy Rosary, it might be thought that they had specially set it apart for intercession on behalf of their Holy Father, the Sovereign Pontiff. The ink was hardly dry upon a document which, on account of its solemnity and for its signatures, exceeded in im portance and publicity any that had emanated from the Anglican communion. In that document a protest was entered against the universal so vereignty of the vicar of Jesus Christ and the in tercession of the Blessed Mother of God. At first sight it would appear that the act of that day per formed in that church and the words of that Anglican declaration were irreconcilable. lie would fain hope—and it was not to his purpose to enter into details—but he thought the two things might be brought to harmony. It might sound strange —although he had no hesitation in saying it—that, interpreted by the letter, any Catholic might sign that document. Was it not strange that a solemn protest so framed, and so hostile at least in its ex pression, should contain, when analysed, nothing to which a Catholic could object? He did not say what was the intention of the framers, neither did he say that the interpretation which he put upon it was such as the Catholic Church would warrant. Let them, therefore, hope for the best ; and cer tainly it was the part of charity not to multiply discre pancies, or to elevate what could be smoothed away into mountains of separation. What do the words of that declaration say ? The chief attacks of the Anglican communion in this country, and of the bishops abroad, are iu the form of a protest against the endeavour to establish a universal sovereignty on behalf of the Holy See. For himself he never heard supremacy claimed. There was certainly supremacy of jurisdiction in virtue of the Keys, which was indeed a Catholic truth, and for the de fence of which Catholics would give their lives. The sovereignty of the patrimony of St. Peter was, therefore, an intelligible proposition. They were next warned, in the document alluded to, against appealing to the blessed Virgin Mary, and placing her in the stead of her Son. Where, in the Catholi Church, was the man who did so ? If there wer such a man, he would say, let him be anathema. The Virgin Mary was simply a creature ; her Son was the Creator. No Catholic who ever lived but would recoil from such blasphemy—from such hor rible impiety. He was glad to see that in this docu ment it was not affirmed, in so many words, that the Catholic Church put the Virgin in the place of her own Son. So far, therefore, it was a gain. They celebrated prayers in the Catholic Church to the mother of God, not as a divine person, but as an intercessor. That was the faith of the Catholic Church. The Anglican document spoke of union, but what it meant by union it was not for him to say. A desire had been expressed in the Church of England for communion with the Church of the East; but how the Church in the East would agree with the Church which condemned prayers to the blessed mother of God it was not for him to say. And now he paused to say thus much for this docu ment, which was very remarkable iu sound, but, very innocuous in sense. It would do the Catholics of England no harm, and the feast of the Holy Rosary would wipe out all its bitterness. Passing away from this topic, he would now ask their intercession for the safety of the Holy Father and the stability of his throne. He stated just a year ago that he had confidence in the strength of the throne of the Pope. A year had passed, and the Holy Father calmly sat on the throne which he occupied a year ago. In those twelve months there had been periods of momentous importance. On the 12th of December following, the time of which he then spoke, those foreign bayonets, which they were tauntingly told were the only support of the Pontiff's throne, were withdrawn. It had been said that within 21 hours of the withdrawal of those troops the whole of the population of Rome would rise against the Pope. Where were the prophets? In the following month of June bishops from all parts of the world assembled around that throne which was to have been crumbled into the dust, but which still retained its magnificence and its power in the person of Pope Pius IX. It might be said that these were mere human events, but they were not so, for they were the m anifestations of Divine power. The Archbishop commented in strong terms upon the proceedings of Garibaldi, without, how ever, mentioning him by name. Quoting from one of the daily newspapers, he showed that phrases had been applied to him which had reference originally to Christ, and denounced many of the prevailing notions of the day which appeared to set the church and the State in antagonism. He concluded with a very solemn protest, as a Christian and as an Englishman, against that striving which was evidently going on to undermine the faith of the Church, which was the only recognised means of salvation, the chief and sole guarantee for the public peace.

Several witnesses were then examined on behalf of the prisoner Wilson. One of them, J. Ingham, had no recollection of seeing Wilson on the after noon of the 18th ult. Sarah Grimshaw, a beerhouse keeper, residing near the city gaol, said she saw Wilson in her house on the afternoon of the 18th ultimo. There was a woman and child with him. They had some drink. Grace Clarke stated that at three o'clock on the afternoon of the 18th ult. she saw Wilson get upon an omnibus to go to Belle Vue. Mary Flanagan, a governess, was called, but said she did not wish to give evidence. Mr. Fowler—You must. Witness said she remembered the afternoon of the attack on the police van. She was walking near the city gaol at 10 minutes to four o'clock, and saw Wilson, with whom she was slightly acquainted, in a publichouse near the gaol gates. Wilson was accompanied by his sister-in-law and a little girl. Mary O'Leary, sister-in-law of Wilson, said that on the 18th ult. she was at Wilson's house. He did not get out of bed till nearly two o'clock in the afternoon. A little after three o'clock she went with Wilson and his little girl in an omnibus to Belle Vue. They went into a publichouse near the gaol gates, and had something to drink. On the application of the prisoner Gould, police constable Yarwood was called, and, in answer to Gould, he said—l drove you in a cab from the van to the gaol. I had my head out of the window. I did not strike the top of the cab with my hands in an excited state. I did not see the last witness near the entrance to the gaol with a child. I did not see you on the road. Gould—lt's a lie. You want to get me convicted. Police Inspector Drysdale was next called. lle said he saw Gould at the Albert police station, when he was being identified. Ile was chained hand and foot. Other prisoners were also chained. Police Superintendent Gee stated that he saw Gould in chains, and had no doubt the chains drew attention to those who wore them. The prisoners were committed for trial. GREAT ATHLETIC MEETING.—On Saturday, in the picturesque park at Westcombe, near Black heath, nearly all the athletic clubs in and near London were represented in the competition for numerous prizes. The stewards wore Admiral Caffin, Capt. Barber, Rev. John Kempthorne, and other gentlemen. Among the spectators were many of the elite of the neighbourhood, and the band of the Royal Artillery played at intervals. The sports commenced with a race of 100 yards, too prizes. After three heats, R. J. Willoughby won the final one ; E. V. Mackay, second ; and O. B. Wickham, third ; time, 11 secs.

In the course there were several hurdles, a water jump, and a steep hill to finish. Some mishaps ensued, but eventually A. Mad dock (Richmond Club), 15 sec. start, came in first by 3 yards; 11. Hannis, (Eton Club), 23 sec., second; and W. G. Woolston (L.A.C.), 35 see., third ; and F. Hawtrey (Eton College), 20 sec., fourth. The wife of Admiral Cain presented the prizes. FOOTBALL.—OLD HARROVIANS V. WANDERERS. —Those two teams met on Saturday last., at Battersea park, the match terminating in a tie, two goals falling to each party. The wind, which at all seasons appears to sweep sharply across the park, was on this occasion bracing and almost frosty, and the absence of any sun to neutralise its effects made everything favourable for foot ball and a good match. The ground, however, was in very bad order ; the going was very slippery, and thegrass was so long and heavy as to render italmost impossible to guide the ball with any degree of precision. The Old Harrovians, who were assisted by a well-known Harrow player (F. E. Bowen), won the toss, and chose the goal next the river, which presented the best ground for defence. The ball was quickly kicked off by the captain of the Wanderers, who appeared determined to lose no time, for a good run up brought the ball directly in front of the Harrow goal,which fell to a cunning piece of play on the part of W. J. Dixon. With the change of goals the Old Harrovians, imbued with a sense of their danger, began to show their proper form, and the game became more exciting as each Harrow charge took the ball nearer and nearer to the enemy's goal, which resisted for some time till compelled to surrender to the kicking prowess of E. E. Bowen. One goal to each side, and the Harrovians improving in their play, such was the aspect of the game when half the time had elapsed. Every minute served to show the superior backing up of the Harrow men, who kept up a ceaseless the on the Wanderers' goal, which was well defended by that most agile of goal-keepers J. Kirkpatrick, who was, however, unable to stem the rushing tide of the Ilarrovians, bent on conquest,.and the Wanderers' goal soon succumbed a second time, after a general scrimmage in front of the poles, to the too of R. 0. Thornton. But few minutes were now loft for play, and victory appeared in the hands of the Harrovians, who wore, however, not destined to be favoured with the smiles of fortune, fur the absence of their goal-keeper gave a chance to J. E. Tayloe, who, by a well-directed kick, sent the ball flying between the posts of the Wanderers' goal. Thus was now called, and this well-contested match thus terminated in a draw. The play on both sides was very good, both the goals ob tained by the Wanderers singularly falling to Old West minsters. For the Old Harrovians R. C. Thornton, R. M. Thornton, and E. E. Bowen showed the best form ; while for the Wanderers W. J. Dixon, J. E. Tayloe, and A. Baker did good service. The following is a list of the players:—Old Harrovians —J. F. Alcock, C. W. Alcock E. E.

SHIELDS, Saturday night.—The weather is a little more moderate upon the coast, and a good many screw col liers and sailing vessels have proceeded to sea to-day. A very melancholy accident occurred off the Tyne yesterday The fruit schooner, the Waife, of Brixham,had been towed out of tl►e port to proceed to St. Michael's ; a sea struck her and washed the mate, Alfred C. Bagshaw, overboard, and he was drowned. Not more than half a dezon sail of vessels have reached the Tyne since Wednesday.

ACCIDENT TO THE EMPRESS OF 7'HE FRENCH. ST. JEAN DE Luz, Oct. 4. Fifty years ago St. Jean de Luz and Socoa were names familiar enough to English ears, the former as the headquarters of the Duke of 'Wellington, the latter as the little port at which the stores and munitions of the British army were landed ; subse quently their career has been so uneventful that you may not know of the existence of a breakwater which now runs out from Socoa point. _ . Here last night happened an accident which in volved the life of one poor fellow, but which might have been politically much more disastrous. The Empress and the Prince Imperial had been cruising towards the Spanish coast; but, finding the sea would be too high to land at Biarritz, the Royal yacht -took shelter behind the breakwater, and the Royal party, instead of landing at Socoa, started in the yacht's boats for St. Jean de Luz. The pilot who had charge of the leading boat, in which were the Empress and the Prince, missed the entrance of the harbour, ran the boat among the rocks, somehow fell overboard himself, and was drowned. The Royal party were carried through the surf and safely landed. The boats in which were the suite hit the entrance of the harbour, following, as they sup posed, the Royal gig. Great was their consternation when they found what had befallen the Empress and her boy. You may like to hear something about this break water, as from its importance to the nautical world 1 believe it to be among the greatest of the many great works of Napoleon 111. The breakwater, which runs out from the foot of Socoa across the bay to the eastward, is now completed to within about a third of its length. Up to this time there has been no harbour of refuge from La Rochelle to the coast of Spain. Already, however, an ironclad may ride behind the Socoa breakwater, sheltered from all winds to the westward of north by compass, from which quarter come those dangerous ocean seas that have given to the Bay of Biscay its bad renown. Contrary to the plan of the Plymouth breakwater, this one of Socoa stands some 20ft. above the sea, the base and parapet of the wall seaward being in about the same perpendicular line, but it is slightly concave between those points. The foundation is made of huge oblong blocks, formed of rocks and stones embedded in wooden cases filled with Port land cement. These blocks are taken out to sea two at a time—one on each side of a sort of plat form, which, being lifted in the centre, sends both masses overboard s imultaneously, to find their rest ing place as chance throws them. The plan has re sulted in a structure which has stood the spring and present equinox without the apparent displace ment of a stone. The Emperor takes great interest in this work, and as a recognition of its success has lately paid it a State visit. In these holyday times a man may do worse than spend a week or two in rambles among the neigh bouring bills and quaint old Basque towns ; and he will find an able chaplain and a simple little church, and may pass an English Sunday at St. Jean de Luz. with his aide-de-camp, Capt. Maitland Lennox, for London. On Saturday Brigade-Major W. W. Lynch, at tached to the Staff of Major-Gen. F. Mu• ray, commanding the division at Clutharn, under N ., ' hose superintendence the five screw steamers Boliva7, Empress, Commoundouris, Parana, and Venetia have been fitted up and equipp3 , l for the convey ance of mules !or the Abyssinian expedition, pro ceeded from headquarters to Plymouth for the purpose of making a final inspection of the vessels previous to their departure during the present week. The steamers will proceed direct to Gibraltar, where they will take on board the mules purchased under the direction of the officials sent out from this country, together with a number of muleteers specially engaged, after which they will call at Malta to take on board mules from that island. Each vessel is fitted up to convey about 150 mules. The following appointments were made on Satur day at the Admiralty :—Alfred A. C. Parr, James Brant, and Robert M. Sparrow, midshipmen, to the Minotaur. -D R.

MEXICO. Mexican journals have thrown themselves with more ardour into the Presidential contest than was anticipated. Juarez is the chief object of their attack. He lately issued an edict, conferring on governors of provinces the summary power of im prisonment, enabling them to seize the responsible editors of journals who are supposed to have trans• greased the law of the 28th December, 1855, which is again brought into question. Juarez is desirous of modelling the republic on the plan of the United States, with two Houses of Congress, and a Cabinet appointed by and responsible to the Executive. He asks for a similar power of veto as that possessed by the President at Washington. He is now considered secure of re-election, as he has gained over Porfirio Diaz, his chief opponent. This, it is hinted, has been accomplished by a liberal appropriation of the pub lic funds. Castillo, and all the generals at Queretaro sentenced to be shot, have been pardoned, but the fate of Santa Anna remains undecided, the proba. bilities being that he will be shot. The Mexicans are tired of bloodshed, but Juarez still continues his proscription of the Imperialists. He has issued a liberal decree, permitting all to vote in the elections, except those who served the Empire above a private soldier, or whose services were unpaid, or who quitted the service previous to the 21st of June, 1867. He has created two orders of decoration—the one to those who persistently resisted the French intervention, the other for those who declared for the Republic previous to the French evacuation of the country. Trade is stagnant, indeed it has been utterly annihilated. Bandits render the roads impassable. Even Government trains have been compelled to halt for days until a sufficient escort could be procured. The Treasury is empty, and the Government at its wit's ends for supplies. They are about to press for a loan in the United States. To such a pass has the country come that even the Mexican press advocate annexation to the United States. Mr. Otterburgh, the Minister, in his first interview with Juarez, assured him of " the sympathy of the United States with the triumph achieved through the heroic constancy of Mexico in her recent struggle for independence and liberal institutions." Admiral Tegethoff had been well received, though Juarez has refused to deliver up the late Emperor's body without authentic documents from the Impe rial family of Austria requesting it. The nation desire that the corpse should be . surrendered.. A correspondent of the New York 7 ribune in Quere taro, writing on the 24th of August, states that he visited the remains of Maximilian, that he found the coffin containing the corpse in a room in the second story of the house occupied by Don Minos Ledo. A soldier guarded the door, but any one was admitted, especially if they were willing to pay him a few reals. The apartment bore the appearance of having once been a store room, and was both very dark and extremely filthy. The coffin was in the centre, resting upon two rude wooden benches. It was covered with black cloth and adorned with a cheap quality of gold lace, while the top had a false cover, the opening of which revealed three glasses, through which th I) last remains of the ill-fated Em peror were dimly He was dressed in a: blue coat with military buttons, dark blue pantaloons and heavy cavalry hoc:lts. His hands were covered with a pair of soiled white gloves. His mouth and eyes were partially open, revealing his teeth and the colour of his eyes, and his beard was quite gone, having with the greater part of his hair been cut off, itis said, by 1)r. Lisso, who had charge of the embalming, who sold it, receiving as high as soz. (8O) for very small locks. This same man, the correspondent I adds, had the Emperor's body for some time at his Naval and Military Intelligence. Orders have been received at the dockyard at Pembroke to make the necessary preparations with the view of building a large iron ship, to be named the Invincible. The new ship will be about 4,000 tons burden, 280 f t. long, 51ft. in breadth, and of 800 horse power. She has been designed by Mr. E. J. Reed, Chief Constructor to the Admiralty. The chief feature in her formation will be a large armour proof tower situated amidships, which will be so constructed that shot can be thrown fore and aft from this projection. This vessel will be built upon what is termed the belt principle. Her Majesty's ship Lion has received orders to proceed to Londonderry. The screw steam storeship Fox, 2, 1,131 tons, 200-horse power, Staff Commander H. A. Moriarty, C. 8., has commenced discharging a quantity of stores alongside the dockyard at Chatham, from Portsmouth and the western yards. The sailing frigate Vernon, 50, attached to the re serve at Chatham, was to leave that port this morn ing in tow of the paddle-wheel steamer Medusa, 2, 312-horse power, Staff-Commander T. Potter, for Portland, where she is to be employed for harbour service. A telegram was received on Saturday reporting the departure of her Majesty's Indian troopship Jumna, from Diamond harbour, near Calcutta, on the 3d of October, for Suez, with troops, who may be expected at Portsmouth in the Crocodile on or about the 11th of November. _ _ A guard of honour, conSisting of Capt. Carring ton, Lieuts. Blaxland and Coffin, 4 sergeants and 100 rank and file of the Royal Marine Light In fantry, marched down to Woolwich Dockyard and received the Lords of the Admiralty on their return to town in the yacht Enchantress from Sheerness on Saturday evening last, at 5 o'clock. Their Lord ships were accompanied by the United States' Ad miral Farragut. The detachment was commanded by Col. Connolly Commandant. On their Lord ships landing, the flagship Fisgard fired the Admi ralty salute, and the colours of the division and Admiralty were unfurled. Major-Gen. Freeman Murray having completed his half-yearly inspection of the corps of Royal Engineers at head-quarters, Chatham, a divisional order was issued on Saturday announcing that the inspection of the battalions of infantry will com mence this morning, and will occupy the entire week. The colonel commanding the Eastern district has been inspecting the troops in the camp at Colchester. On Friday the Bth depot battalion were reviewed. 0. Travers, C. 8., I n sp ec t or - Major-Gen. J. General of Royal Marines, completed his inspection of the Woolwich division of the corps on Saturday last. At 10.30 a.m. the detachment undergoing their annual course of ball practice were marched to the rlumstead-marsh, and the several squads were mustered in front of their respective targets by Capt. Parry, m usketryinstructor to the division, nspector-General's arrival, on w hich awaiting the I the firing commenced, and was carried out at different ranges, most of the non - comm i ss i one d officers and men making excellent practice. A very most importa n t compet i t i ve course interesting and of rifle firing then took place by the General's especial order, to ascertain the merits of the new Carter and Edwards breech-loader, recently intro duced. The two most experienced marksmen of the corps were ordered to enter the lists—Sergeant Bott and Sergeant Lock —the f ormer arme d w ith the Carter and Edwards and the latter with the regulation Snider. The result was as follows : Sergeant Bott fired 28 rounds at 200 yards range in two minutes, and obtained 69 points, Sergeant Lock making in the same time and over the same range 15 rounds and 35 points. The competition was then carried to other and extended ranges, 500 yards, with similar results. After complimenting Col. Connolly on the general efficiency of his divi sion, the Inspector-General and his staff returned to barracks. Ile then examined the school books, and, after remarking on the general satisfaction his inspection of the division had given him, he left Cash and Credit Business. The principal business transactions of the city in merchandise are done upon a basis of four months' credit ; if cash payments are made or less time asked certain discounts are allowed. The extreme caution exercised during the later years of the war and the period just after its close, in giving credit, is gradually relaxing, and business is carried on more according to the customs prevailing in former times. In the uncertainty which attended all mer cantile transactions during the years from 1861 to 1865, when gold was fluctuating sometimes in a single day more widely than it does now in a year, and when affairs were so entirely unsettled that it was not safe to give any credit, a close cash busi ness was necessarily done. Suits on promissory notes were almost unknown in law offices, where that class of actions had formerly constituted the chief business. It is eminently proper to relax this unusual and inflexible cash system, as the state of affairs in the country and the comparative certainty attending commercial operations war rant such a step. But we see no good reason why the custom of giving credits should be extended beyond its present reasonable limits. It is well known that one of the principal causes of the panic of 1857 was the very great ex tent to which business had been done on credit ; and we believe it is quite as generally conceded that the fact of there being very little commercial paper afloat at the end of the war has been one of the most important assistants in carrying us through the past two years without a severe financial crisis. The experience thus referred to, of the injury worked by excessive credits in one case and of the benefit realised from the cash system in the other, is in itself sufficiently strong to have much influence in guiding future action ; but reason, we think, points in the same direction. The fact is simply this—that the long credit method is one by which goods can be bought with promises to pay. The cash or short credit method calls for money imme diately or in a very short time. The tendency with purchasers will always be to ask for long credit, and a custom of giving such credit once established can. not easily be changed until at length some great revulsion overthrows everything, and a new order of things is started. The wisest course would seem to be to keep up the present custom of giving credit for a reasonable time ; the interests of both seller and buyer will be pro moted, and the total amount of legititnate business done in a year will be quite as large as if the terms of transactions were notes of from six to twelve mon tlis. —New I ork Financial Bulletin. The Drying of Hay and Corn. The Scientific Review, of the Ist inst., mentions a very simple and effective contrivance of Mr. W. A. Gibbs, of Gilwell Park, Essex, member of the In- ventors ' Institute, which has for its object the free ing the farmer, as far as the saving of the hay and corn crops is concerned, from all dependence on the weather. The most important feature of Mr. Gibbs' patent, it says, apart from its great efficiency, is that he derives the heat he employs from the products of combustion when they are about to escape into the atmosphere, and hence are ordinarily not expected to produce any further effect ; and also from the waste steam, that is, from steam which has done its work, and, therefore, any effect of which is clear gain. The principle adopted by him may be carried out in a variety of ways. It is supposed that the farmer possesses, or can hire, an agricultural steam-engine ; which is the case at present in almost every part of Great Bri tain, and many parts of Ireland. The back plate of this engine is removed, and the induction-tube of a large, but very simply constructed blower or fan, is inserted into the opening. This blower is driven with a belt, by one driving-wheel of the engine, and as it causes a powerful draught through the furnace no chimney is required. The heated air and products of combustion drawn in by the fan are driven by a suitable pipe under the floor of a portable iron shed, about 12 feet square, and 7 feet high. The floor of this shed being raised about 12 inches from the ground, a kind of reservoir for the heated air is formed by the false bottom, the prolongation of the sides downwards, and the ground. Into the upper or sheet-iron floor are in serted, by their larger ends, conical tubes about 18 inches long, at distances sufficient to allow sheaves of wheat to be spiked vertically on each of them. The heated air from below passes up through these tubes, and, issuing from their upper extremities, rushes with great velocity through the centre of the sheaf outwards, carrying with it all the superfluous mois ture, and effectually drying both the straw and the grain. The air thus charged with moisture escapes through the openings formed by corrugations of the iron roof, where it rests on the sides of the shed ; and the heat is utilised to such a degree, that while the air and products of combustion enter the shed at a temperature of about 340 deg., they leave it at a temperature of about 140 deg. In order that one set of sheaves may be drying, while the other is being fixed on the conical tubes, the shed is divided, longitudinally, by a sheet-iron partition—which, if desirable, may be hollow, for the reception of waste steam from the engine ; and the air from the fan is turned instantaneously into the one division or the other, at pleasure, by a very simple valve. The shed used with the experiment we witnessed, though of the small dimensions we have given above, is capable of drying the sheaves obtained from eight acres in a very few hours. And while one wheel of the engine h driving the fan, the other may be made to drive the threshing-machine, which will be abundantly supplied by the product of the drying shed. It acts so efficiently that the sheaves in one division are dried while the other division is being filled. We saw wheat that had been exposed to 18 hours' constant rain ; then to a day's drying in the open air ; then to six hours' more rain, then to another day's drying, then to from four to six hours heavy rain, so that they were completely saturated, perfectly dried in 15 minutes. The point to which the drying may be carried is completely un , ler the control of the farmer. If he wishes to thresh out his crop on the field so as to send his corn and straw at once to market, he can do so with perfect cer tainty and case. If he intends to stack it, of course a less thorough dryness will suffice. To remove all apprehension that sparks might be carried by the air-current to the straw, and ignite it the products of combustion are made to pr.ss through a wire gauze, which is placed between, the smoke-box and the fan.
