Those Linden Pumps Again 's'

see by the Democrat of the 18th ult., that San
Enginer" calls my statement, with regard to the
Linden Pumps in question Now the written
opinion of ian engineer" and especially, after he
has visited the diggings and examined the ma
chine ought not to be treated lightly. But san
Engineer IS mistaken in supposing that asser-
ted in my former communication that these
pumps were actually, and certainly work ed by the
water raised from the shafts. | asserted no such
thing Indeed person who k,o,rs nothing of
1.-The first principles mechanics" with only one
eve open at that could see that there is "a stream
Of water used to work the wheel independent of
that which is drawn from the s.safts,n-I know
very well that the water raised by the pumps is
used for other purposes-what said and still saw
isl have not the least doubt but what the
pumps may be worked constantly by the water
only which they discharge falling on the wheel :,
and see nothing in ian engineers" statements
which leads me TO change my opinion. UNDER
stand "the pumps have been worked, for hours
together, with only the water raised from the
pumps Indeed, had there been no test of this
kind, at the risk of being charged with ignorance
OF 1.-The first principles of mechanics'-I should
say that those pumps any other similarly con
strueted might be worked by the wafer raised by
them. Do we understand IAN engineer" to say
that il is impossible for pumps, under any circum-
stances. to be worked by the water they might
raiset
For example-supPose the water in the Linden
Pumps to be higher than The ,rleel does San engin>
eer see any reason why the pumps may not be
worked except the friction of the ,acii,les Now
this is, as understand it, the case with the Linden
Pumps-the water raised is actually above the
mp of the heel, by several feet, (although the
wheel is some 25 #. in diameter and the friction
is very much overcome by the action of the two
pumps
Now If IAN engineer designed merely to in
form us that there is another stream of water bv
which the Linden Pumps are actually worked
we answer, we know that without calling into
requlsiton our FIRST principles OF mechanics
Il ne means TO assert that pumps cannot hay
ING the water however much above the wheel
that works them, be worked by the water dis,
charged ~ them-why then his first principles
of mechanics differs from facts and also from

INCREASE OF THE MsTALs.-There can be no

Were iron 10 be obtained at one half its present
price, the building of machinery, houses, rail-

Classes would be gamers by the improvement. In

We never expect TO see it become cheap, still
