The GREAT GUN OF BEEJAPoRE.-By the
last India mail, we learn, among tile news from
the Bombay Presidency, that "a plan is before
the Government for the removal to England of
the great brass gun at Beejapore. 1t is the
largest piece of ordinance in the world for its
calibre This gun was cast for the native
Princes of Beejapore in 1890, at Ahmednug-
gur and thence moved to Beejapore: in 1923,
the Bombay Government was extremely desir-
Gus Of sending it to England, as present to
the King; but until the roads are improved, it
would almost be impossible to transport such
ponderous mass to the sea-coast."
A correspondent has favored US with sketch
of this Indian wonder. 1t is placed upon a
bastion near one of the gates of Beejapore. It's
native name is "Malik Micken," (Master of the
Plain) Its length is IA feet inch, diameter
in bore, 2 #. Al inches diameter at breeeh, a #.
10 inches, ditto at muzzle, it. 2 inches. It is
stated to require an iron ball weighing about
3loO lbs It is believed by some to be partly
of gold; but there is more wonderful tradi-
ton as to its history; it was fred once during
siege of the city, and the natives imagine the
ball to be flying yet!

BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA.-About six
o'clock in the morning, reached the shore
was desirous of ascertaining the truth of the
assertion "that nothing sinks in the Dead Sea"
Swan considerable distance from the shore,
and about four yards from the beach was be-
yond my depth; the water was the coolest I
ever felt, and the taste of it most detestable: it
was that of a solution of nitre, mixed with an
infusion of quassa. Its buoyancy found to
be far greater than that Of any sea ever swan
on, not excepting the Euxine, which is ex-
tremely salt. Icould lie like log Of wood
on the surface, without stirring hand or foot,
as long as chose; and with good deal of ex-
ertion l could just dive sufficiently deep to
cover all my body, but l was again thrown on
the surface in spite ofmy endeavors to descend
lower.

IMPROVED ENGINE FOR ExPR EssING CANE
JUlCE.-The most improved mode hitherto
used for expressing the juice from the sugar
cane is an arrangement of rollers by steam
engine, through the former of which the sugar
canes pass and the juice is absracted, but from!
thr porous nature Of the cane fibre much of the
juice is re-absorbed after the cane has passed
through the rollers-the practical result being
that the most improved roller machines do not
produce more than IS per cent. of juice, where
as there is 80 per Gent. in the cane, evidently
leaving great room for Improvement
A new engine, the invention of an ingenious
mechanic, was lately exhibited on West In
dian estate. The necessary preparations hav-
ing been made, the engine was set to work and
the first experiment made, which resulted in
completely extracting the juice from 100 pounds
of sugar cane in sixty three seconds, which, by
the way was not an exhibition of the uttermost
power Of the engine, inasmuch as the fourth
tube, being out of working order, could not bo
used; consequently, only three-fourths of the
actual power was exhibited. The second ex-
pertinent was to test the amount of Juice the
engine was capable Of abstracting from Civ
en- amount Of cane; this also was performed
under somewhat disadvantageous circumstan-
ces, as the canes having been cut upwards Of
four months since, much of the juice had evap-
grated. Neyerless, the lowest figures that
could be placed upon the result were IS l-2
per cent-that is to say, IS IL pounds of juice
was extracted from 100 pounds of cane, leaving
but little doubt but that, under more favorable
circumstances, the new engine would realize
IS or 80 per cent instead of the present average
of 55 already mentioned-an Improvements
when examined and entered into, Of great mag
ntude and importance. Besides this, it was
distinctly shown that while the new mode of
pressure abstracted so completely the juice Of
interior of the cane, its knots and rind were
left completely untouched-a most important
Advantage, as it is there that the green wax
and other Objectionable matters are contained;
and it is there that the old roller machine unfor-
tunately pressed-a difficulty insurmountable
in the roller system, yet effectually obviated by
the new process. The engine throughout was
completely under control and worked well; and
the greatest interest and excitement was evin-
ced in the result of the experiment-one cer-
tanly Of great Importance both to the West
India interest and the public at large.
