Ametican 4 foreign Reapins Machines.

Although the British reaping machine of the
Rev. P. Bell, ss noticed by US, in its trial this
year before the Royal Agricultural Society in
England, in competition with our country
mems; Nc Cormicks and Hussey's, bore off
the prize, we are OF opinion that in many re-
spects it is not equal to the American Rea-
ping Machines. There is also no'resemblance
between them, and those who have said the
Americans borrowed; because Bells was some
years older, have been entirely mistaken.
Bells reaper cuts with a clipping shear mo-
ton, the American machines cut with saw
ing action. Bells rhiachihe Is driven before
the horses (Which push it) the American ma
chiHe is drawn by the horses. The Scotch
feaper uses q reel and carries the cut grain
away by att endless apron, but McCormck's
machine lays down the cut grain in gravels at
one side. In the late trial before the Royal
Agricultural Society, the judges were plea
sed with Bells reaper because the horses did
not tread down the grain, and really because
il cut better than any machine on the ground;
but We are inclined to believe that this was
greatly owing to the superior construction Of
a single machine, for in trial before the
Highland Agricultural Society, in Scotland,
on the 9th OF last month, although Belps
again took the first prize, the second was
awarded to McCormick's who had only sim
gle machine, while there were three of Bells,
two of which were supposedly the American
one. There can be no doubt but Mr.. Bell de-
serves great credit for his invention; we would
not pluck single chaplet from his brow as a
most deserving inventor, and we do not when
we say "the American reapng machine IS
superior to his in many respects;" we only do
justice to the latter. For example: it is very
difficult to set and keep Bells knives in order;
his machine is also heavier and more complca-
ted, and certainly all our reapers are heavy
and clumsy enough. The American ma
chine therefore is less expensive at first, and
is easier kept in repair, and these are very i'm
portant considerations for all agriculturists.
The judges of the Highland Agricultural
Society speak Of McCoffnick's machine in the
most fa.tering terms, and do not seem to be
tinctured With the least prejudice as to its
American birth. With respect,o all the rea-
ping machines We have yet SEEM ills our
opinion that there is great room for improve
ment on the very best of them.
BY English and Scotch papers recently re-
eei1ed by ns, We perceive thdt Mr.. McCor-
mick has arrived in Scotland, and challenged
Bells reaper to another trial. The challenge
is not in the form of bet, but couched in the
respectful language of lover of fair play, and
one who has confidence in his own invention.
We have also received very able paper
on reapers, which was read before the British
Association of Science; an abstract of this
win be presented in future number Of the
Scientific Americana; il is full of interest to
our readers. Scientific American.

IN the Spanish part Of our paper, a letter

which being Of considerable interest, We

1t at once struck him that this earth must
contain quicksilver, and he continued to in

was further increased by coming at length to

yards in circumference, aud on more minute
examination, he found in various parts of the
hill, drops OF quicksilver fiterng through q

this way it is expected that Dr.. Renia will,
without doubt, having worked through the

REFUSAL OF A CATHOLIC PRIEST TO BE
SWORN ON THE AUTHORIZED VERSION OF THE
ScRIprUREs.--A good deal of surprise was
excited yesterday in the Revision Court, by
the conduct Of a Roman Catholic Clergyi yinah,

version of the Scriptures. The Rev. i'm

vote as an electcr for the City of Dublin
claiming qualification by right of occupa.
ton of portion of the dwelling house at
tached to the Chapel of Lower Exchange Ct
On being handed the Testament in use in the
court, the Rev. gentleman produced a copy
of the Douay Bible, on which he desired to
be sworn. alleging that the oath taken on
the Protestant version would not be bihdiKg
on his conscience, inasmuch as it was not q
true and correct one. The case was allowed
to stand over for the presen,--the Assistah,
or Revising Barrister, howevef, expressing
his opinion that no one had a right to urge
such an objection. A case occurred recently
he said, in the House of Commons, in which
the Speaker insisted on a party, who pfofes
sed creed of his own, being sworn on the
authorized version Of the Scriptures. This
case has excited great attention in England
as the same has happened in Limerick.
