sYg-We alluded, a few days since, to
the nearness of completion of some fog ma
chimes invented by Mr.. Daboll, and so ar
ranged as to be worked by hand, at light
houses where there is but one keeper, and
he only able to work but a few hours in
the day TO wind up the weight which is thus
made TO operate the machine.
Mr.. Daboll now informs us that besides
these he is preparing to place a small engine
at the Light House at the mouth of New
London Ilarbor, for the purpose Of opera
ting an air whistle there, Of considerable
power, and to have the same blown about
one week without intermission. la this
way he thinks to demonstrate the practical
billy of the whistle in n manner hitherto
unknown. We notice in the report of the
doings of the U. S. beard of Steam Boa,
INSPECTORS, or supervisors, which recently
convened at Detroit, Michigan, they passed
a resolution recommending the substitution
of whistles, in the place Of bells, for fog
signals, as The latter they say, have proved
very inefficient. Steam whistles might be
used in the room of air whistles, il any
thing was going to be gained by it, byt it
shall be recollected that in order TO keep
steam supplied in a boiler, water must al
most constantly be pumped in against what
ever pressure of steam there is employed in
the same, and as this would be too laborious
for II man, it is unquestionabIy better to
attach a small engine, to be driven by the
steam, and thus made to pump its w sup
ply of water, and at the same time furnish
motive power sufficient to drive the air pump
and blow the air whistle, which is far supe.
rior to steam whistle, as the inhabitants Of
New port had an opportunity to know more
than a year ago, when the air whistle was
being operated at Beaver Tail Light, by
Horse power. 1t was Mr. DIS intention to
have placed the engine at Beaver Tail, but
finding the transportation 81 difficult, he had
to alter his plans, and send the same further
down the coast where better facilities exist
ed for expressing it along. We shaI! await
the result with some interest.
