AIR AND SUBMARINE NAVIGATION.

AIR AND SUBMARINE NAVIGATION.
THO THE PUBLIC again appear before you
Il for the purpose Of submitting 10 your eonsid-
Grafton two new and novel plans OF fir and Sob
Marine Navigation. Alter years Of neessant appll-
cation and study, have succeeded in bringing them
10 state OF perfection, and ask Of you fair con
sideralion tnd opinion Of their merits The one is
for navigating the air by OF balloon 50 con-
strueted that il be managed TO move with a We
locity Of SO so miles per hour IN any given drec-
ZION, whether il be across the Atlantic, Traverse
the entire length Of our great and wide spread
country, from the Aroostook TO the Rio Giande.
Connected with this machine have attached tat
terry, from which | can discharge, from any height,
with the greatest precision and accuracy, from one
TO ten thousand one-ounce balls IA q minute. With
machine like this, properymanaged, the necessity
Of sending troops 10 Texas would have been obvi-
sted--one of these batteries placed IN the balloon,
managed by single individual, being sufficient TO
defeat and extermnale the largest army. ,
The other is machine with which can move
with case under water, at the rate Of eight or ten
miles per hour, without being compelled 10 come
TO the surface for air. the machine being so con-
strueted to generate air sufficient for the person
within IT, Connected with this | have a torpedo,
with which can approach (under water) a hostile
fleet, and sink or blow up the same ia thirty min
utesi .........F - .....5 III.
Believing that these machines would be Of the
greatest utility TO the United States, have RETAINED
nom laying my plans before the public until the
time should arrive when their merits would be duly
appreciated. That time has now arrived the "black
clouds of war" are lowering our horizon; all
are eager attention, expecting hear borne every
breeze waited from the south tho booming Of cam
non. With my Atmosphere Machines, 1 could
carry dispatches to or from Oregon or Texas, to
Washington, in 40 hours, or beat of any hostile
feet or army that dare approach our shore. To a
country of such vast and increasing territory as
ours, the utility Of these machines must be obvious;
but having family depending upon my labor for
support, unable to carry them into success
fol operation. call upon the public to aid me in
this great enterprise. | cannot believe my own
countrymen are so far behind other countries in
encouraging the arts and sciences and still cling
TO the hope that some liberal and noble souled per-
sohs will step forward TO aid in the construction Of
one or both Of these machines and while reaping
a rich reward for themselves, become a nations
benefactor
