Novel Application - ue.h. ~,

@HPAAouthVH VI McCudulCSs -
Mr.. Alfred Since has announced that he
has contrived piece Of mechanism of much
novelty; and he states, that by il he can
show the relation of any number Of facts on
principles inductively and deductively, and
thus performs mechanically what has hitherto
been thoughtto be the province Of the mind
alone. For the action of the machine he SO
arranges the words, that every word forms a
half of the meaning of the word above it,
and comprises the meaning of two words be-
low it. By these means, he obtains an ar
rangement Of words having the properties of
a geometrical series. When the words are
expressed in their proper relations upon the
machine, which is constructed upon the same
geometrical plan with the logical readings of
all, some, none, the bearing of any number
Of actions on the machine is indicated, and
the conclusion can be read off by inspection.
