they could possibly have been, If called out

THE HowlTzER BATTERY.

The Albany Argus says all the material
has been prepared at Waiervliet. Each
OF the batteries consist Of six twelve. pound.
er bronze howilz-rs, made with extreme
IghIness, and SIX carriages, SO constructed
as 10 be susceptible Of packing uynn a
horse or mule. The howi,zeT xeiobs
about 2lO pounds. The carriage is Of j.
milar weight, and Two chests with anmu.
milton, vary only very few pounds from
the same. A pack saddle has been so
constructed as 10 admi, of its receiving
either the howilzer, the carriage or two
ammunition chests, carrying each eight
rounds of spherical case shot, shells, aud
canister. Thus the load Of horse doe,
not exceed 900 pounds, which is carried
most compaclly and securely. Attached
TO this corps, it is understood to be the
intention Of the War Department 10 or.
game a Rocket Corp. for service in the

TYPE SETTING MACHINE.

According TO the New York Sun, a ma.
chine has been invented by which types
can be readily and regularly set. After a
while, if things 60 on at this rate, nobody
will be required about newspa per estab.
! lishment bu, The editor, and he will sci up
u his ,auctum and grind out bis paper jus,
as a music grinder now grinds out tune.
II Is said that this "Sleam ype.Seuer,"
By the aid Of two men and three boys, can
pot up as much printed matter as ten com.
posltors can BY the old system. The Sun
remarks Of the new machine:
The steam type setting machine is a
yerItable reality. II does its work well
and accurately. The operator sits before
two SETS Of keys situated like the keys of
a PIANO his loull Of type is before him,
arranged IN rows each letter or figure is
10 is own, piled Up separately each type
has It's own key, and attached 10 the
key IS a lever, which, when the key is
touched, pufhes out one type into what may
be called a railway track, where there is
an endless chain 10 operation for convey.
ing the types into little box, where they
are received and piled up in line. BY an
index before him, the compos;or sees at
once when his line is completed lie then
stop. The machine, gives the full line sig
nal to his assistant, who opens the box and
slides the line INTO It's column Of printed
matter. The asss,an, thea adjusts the
iine and f loaded composition, he adds a
lead, AMI about a. soon as he has this
done, The compo-tor has another line
ready for him. In fact, the types Jump
into the compostor's stick tor box, as the
new term is,1 as fast as the composition can
touch the keys. A composltor ike Herr,
The pianist, for example, would set one Of
the columns If the sun in freafy minutes !
This seems Incredible, but Ne have seen
bouks and pamphlets composed by ii. In
our opinion, the impetus which these ma
chimes viii give 10 the printing business,
viii avert any injuries which their intro.
duclion at first view might threaten TO IN
fiict upon the profession.
