GT The New Electrical Clocks in the
New York CityHall were put in operation
on Thursday. The clocks, which are placed
IN the Mayors private office, chambers OF
the Aldermen and Couueilmen, and the
rooms of the Clerk of the Common Coun-
ell, Clerk of the Board of Councilmen, City
Hall Keeper, Court of Common Pleas, Libra
ran and Sheriff, are controlled by the move
ments of regulating clock, Gin the MAY or's
outer office,) which is driven in the ordinary
way by a weight-the principal popularity
in the main clock being that the machinery
is so contrived as to break and unite an cleo
tr'cal circuit at intervals of second. This
is effected as follows: One of the pinions
OF this clock revolves once in a minute. and
carries the 'break circuit Wheel" which has
so teeth tipped with platina, and 20 inter
vcnlng spaces. AS the wheel revolves, a
tooth and space are alternately brought
against an elastic strip of platina, so that
one second the rlat:na strip passes against a
tooth, and the next it falls into a space
The motion of a regulating clock, bv means
Of the Geographic apparatus, is simutane-
ously conveyed to all the other clocks. The
electrical circuit commences at the platina
strip IN the regulator, passes thence to the
battery, through the electric clocks. one after
another, and then back to the ''break circuit
Wheel Of the regulator The machinery Of
the electric clocks is pecular-three differ
ent mechanical combinations having been
tested and rejected before the present one
was adopted, which is SO constructed that the
variations of the electric current do not in
any way effect it.
The conducting wire which connects the
clocks secures perfect insulation, being a
small cable about half the diameter of the
great Atlantic submarine cable. To be Sc
cure against any danger arising from the
failure of the battery-power, the batteries are
placed side by side, both operating upon the
same circuit, and either capable of being
removed without disturbing the circuit for
an instant. a telI-taie apparatus has also
been arranged, which betrays any weakness
in either of the batteries.

doubtful whether the Government Of Nicat
