PIES IN It's frame Is 100 teet long by 4 feet
'aenes wide ana its total weight between
SIX nnd seven tons. 1t Is intended to be set
N the masonry on the top the clock shaft
We have mentioned, and down which its pen
iulem and striking and going weight will
ianr. It's uncertain what the latter may
,e, but 1t is evident when we come to regard
he ponderous weight of the hammers re-
luired to strike the hours and quarters, that
he former at least must be exceedingly
five or six tons The clock
fitted with Mr.. Dennisons gravity es
apement, and, by peculiar arrangement Of
'atdhet wheels, the winding, Lo matter how
onS it lasts does not stop or alter the. clock
Or 2 single instant.
The pendulum is entirely detached from
he rest oil the clock and fixed into the wall
+ the tower It is compensated 2 seconds
