COMPARATIVE ELASTICITY or WROUGHT AND
CAST IRON The mean ultimate resistance .r
wrought lroE to a force Of compression, as use
ful III practice, is IL toms per square inch.
while crushing weight Of cast iron is 20 tons
Per square inch; but for oon siderable range,
under equal weights, the cast iron is twice as
elastic, or congresses twice as much as the
wrought iron.
a remarkable illustration Of tho effect of
intense strain on cast iron was witnessed by
the author at the works II Messrs Easton &
AmoS. The subject of the experiment was a
cast iron cylinder, los inches thick, and Ia!
inches high, the external diameter being Is
inches.
1t was requisite, for a specific purpose, to
reduce the internal diameter 10 3! inches and
this was effected by the insertion of a smaller
cast iron cylinder into the center Of the large
one and to insure some initial strain, the
large cylinder was expanded by heating IL,
and the internal cylinder being frst turned
too large was thus powerfully compressed.
The inner cylinder was partly filled with
pewter, and steel piston being fitted TO the
pore a pressure of 912 tons was put on tho
steel piston The steel was upset by the
pressure, and the internal diameter OF the
small cylinder was increased by full three.
slxteenths Of an inch-that is, the diameter
became ) III is Of an inch A new piston
was accordingly adapted to these dimensions,
and In this the cylinder continued to be used,
and TO resist the pressure; the extern al LAYER
Of the inner cylinder was thus permanently
extended 1-50 of its length. In fact, il can
only be regarded as loose packing, giving no
additional strength to the cylinder.
Under these high pressures, when confined
mechanically, cast iron, as well as other met
ais, appears, like liquids, to exert an equal
pressure In every direction in which It's mo.

OVER THE LEFT The following good story
is told on Gen Harney, by one of the of. !.
GERS who was with him at the battle Of Ash
Hollow, and afterwards at Forte Pierre:
At the treaty held at the latter place, at
which the General had a great talk with the
chiefs of all the tribes, he stood a few stems in
advance of his staff, and debating to the In.
terpreter what to say, in his usual gruf and
authoritative manner: "T Tell them said he,
that their great father at Washington has
sent me here to make them respect the trea-
ties they have made with the whites"
" Tell them that I am furnished with a
great number of braves, horses and cannon,
and that shall make war upon them as long
as an Indian can be found on these prairies If
they DON'T"
- Tell them that they must not kill or rob
any more emigran: trains that are crossing
the plains, or steal any thing from the whites
In any manner"
ASK them if they remember the fight at
Ash Hollow"
lit will be remembered that q great num-
Der of the Indians made their escape through
a pass in the hills that the General knew
nothing Of until too late
"Tell them that left place for them to
escape through, then, TO prevent my braves
from killing every one of them" and he con-
tinued, turning his eyes over his shoulder to
his staff, "it's lucky for them that / didn't
know whore il was, or I'D have killed every
ID redskin in the hollow"
