SELF-REGULATING WINDMILL. - Daniel
Halliday, a mechanic in an obscure country
village, Ellington, Connecticut, has done what
the world of mechanics have sought for in
vain for centuries. He has invented, and put
in successful operation, Windmill with self
furling sails. The mill built by him has five
feet wings, that is, the diameter of the wind
wheel is ten feet, and it has been in operation
for six months, without hand being touched
to it to regulate the sails. 1t run fifteen days
at one time, without stopping day or night,
and it has stood through some hard gales;
the beauty of the improvement is, that it does
stand still when the wind RACES hardest, with
the edge of the wings to the wind, and as it
lulls, they gradually resume their position for
gentle breeze. 1t is SO contriyed that moth
ing but a squat Of great severity falling upon
it without a moments warning, can produce
damage.
The mill mentioned has drawn water from
a well twenty eight feet deep, one hundred
feet distant, and forced it into small reser-
voir i'll the upper part Of the barn, sufficient
for all farm purposes, garden irrigation, and
slots to spare The cost of such mill will
be 800, and the pumps and pipes about $50.
1t is elevated OH single oak post, about
foot square, the turn circle being supported
by iron braces. The wings are made Of one
longitudinal iron bar, through which run
small rods upon these rods, narrow boards,
half an inch thick, are fitted, holes being
bored through from edge to edge, and screwed
together by nuts on the ends of the rods
This makes strong, light sails, but, as will Dc
seen, are fixtures not to be furled or clewed
up; but they are thrown up edge to the wind,
by a very ingenious and simple arrange
ment Of the machinery, which obviates the
objection to windmills for farm use; the ne
cessity Of constant supervision OF the SAILS 10
suit the strength of the wind.
Wind is undoubtedly the cheapest power
that farmer can use, and, notwithstanding
its Inconsistency, if this improvement operates
as well as it bids fair to in the single mil
erected, it will be applied to many valuable
uses. By windmills swamps may be drained
and upland irrigated. What an advantage
would be the latter in such drouth as pre-
walls now in many parts of the country, pc
side the great amount of fertilizing matter IN
water at all times. The windmill could be
used too, for all grinding Of grain for farm
use, driving the washing machine and churn,
pumping the water from the well or spring,
often one Of the hardest kinds Of labor ABOUT
the house. Liquid manure, and the sona ex,
crement made Of liquid, could be sent neia
through leading pipes by the same power.
We do earnestly hope for the success Of TINS
mprovement-that it will not only De an OF
nanent but thing of usefulness to many
American farms. Nog

The Treaty with Russia.

The Senate has promptly ratified the new
treaty with Russia, by which the principle is
recognized that Free Ships make Free Goods.
The following are understood 10 be the principle
point Of this treaty, which must be regarded
with high satisfaction by the mercantile
world -
l. That free ships make free goods ; that is
10 say, that the goods belonging TO subjects or
citizens Of power or stale, at war. shall be
free from capture or confscatlon when found
on board of neutral vessels, with the exception
of articles contraband of war.
2. That The property Of neutrals on board
an enemy's vessel is not subject to confscatlon
unless the same be contraband of war; And
the two contracting parties agree to take the
stipuations contained as above as a rule, when
ever it shall come in question TO judge of the
rights Of neutral nations.
The Boston Post remarks as follows upon
the great Importance Of this treaty and the ad-
vance made in international law -
We confidently congratulate the commercial
community our splendid maritime interest
on this new step il the career of nations. 1t
is great thing to get free ships, free goods
acknowledged as International law and II may
be said to be established now. Our country
on these great ideas, never has taken step
backwards, and it will press forward 10 full
and complete application Of the principle.
Other nations will fall into it, exactly as they
did with reciprocity principle. Our merchants
will remember that, not forty years ago, our
commerce, and indeed all foreign tonnage, was
denied admission into British ports without
extra duties. Our 1915 reciprocity law, which
was little thought Of when enacted, did the
business for this country AMI no sooner did
the United States break the old aud heretofore
impregnable barriers Of British monopoly, than
Russia and France, and Holland, and all other
nations, insisted Or the same acknowledge
and obtained il. And now Great BRIAN her
self would be the very last TO propose to 60
back 10 her old system of restriction and mo
nopoly. 1t is reasonable to suppose that j.
will be the same with this great principle Of
free ships, free goods
La this treaty, too, the mercantile world will
see another evidence of the earnest, jealous,
aud wise manner in which the President is
working for lis interests. This treaty, like
the fishery and reciprocity treaty, has great
national objects in view. Both these measures
have broad, beneficial, humane principle at
their bottom; and the results that sure 10
grow from them will be such as must rebound
TO the permanent glory Of the country.

New Custom House.

The exterior stone work Of the basement of
doors, is now laid !; and the cross cellar walls
Of brick are brought up about half way TO the
top of the UNDERMINING. A double drain,
each department of which is 10 by IL inches,
well made and laid in cement, extends about
60 feet from the cellar wall with descent of
| foot in 10. 1t will be continued at the same
descent to the street, when by more rapid
inclination, it will be conducted to the river.
A lead pipe, 1-2 inch calibre, is being laid
in the trench over the drain, from the cellar,
about GO feet, where it will remain till con-
diagonally northward about so feet to the well.
The object of this is TO bring water to the els
tern by forcing suction pump, whenever
supply from the caves shall fail
All the work, thus far, has been done in the
most substantial manner, and does great credit
to the skill Of the Contractor, Mr.. Webb.
The purity and beauty Of the hewn granite, is
now unanimously acknowledged, even by the
most obstinate admirers of the Edgcomb stone
1t is quarred from the Muscle Ridge Islands,
in Penobscot Bay, and is considered superior
to any other in the State.
The plans and contracts were originally for
an exterior Of hewn granite, with condition,
permitting the department to change the de-
sign, if from any cause it should be thought
expedient. The appropriation of $50, 900,
which is now included, by Congress, in the
Civil and Diplomatic bill, will enable the de-
partment to carry on the original plan. Con-
siderable delay, however, will result from the
lateness Of this appropriation.

How to distinguish Cholera.

DR.. M. L. North Of Saratoga, in the last
number of the Boston Medical Journal, says,
The difference between Asiatic Cholera
and common domestic diarrhea is palpable and
easy, and every man can carry The distinction
IN his memory. Cannot an uneducated man
tell certainly if he has an evacuation which is
cop'o1s, rcdtery, colorlesS, painless and inodor-
Gus Any man Of ordinary talents can ascer-
IAN 10 two minutes, that something has hap
pened 70 him which he never experienced be-
fore. | said painless. It is this quality of the
evacuation which leads men to The amazing
apathy so common, and permits them ID lei
hours, and even days, elapse before the physl-
clan is called
As this Asialic destroyer has become Amer
icanised, our people must be able to make an
early discrimination, and our profession must
learn how to prevent the fatal collapse Whv
will not editors instruct their readers that thew
can better afford to lose pint Of common red
blood than pint Of colorless blood Of cholera.
How hopeless is the state of the patient from
whom gallons Of liquid, cozOrzess nutr1npcnt
have escaped, and how forlorn and wretched
