the ingenious inventor, j. Morris WAMPLER, a
civil Engineer of this city, s'The Graphodometer"
This machine, which can be constructed at the cost
OF an ordinary buggy, and to which it bears in
form considerable resemblance by well arranged
combination of wheels, cogs, and levers, makes a
correct survey of road or line over which it
passes; recording upon slips of paper, fed by roll
ers, all changes to the right or to the left; all
changes from level in the angle of descent the
angle of ascent, and their continuation, pricking
down with accuracy at the same time the distance
traversed. We understand that Mr.. WAMPLER
has applied for patent for his invention, and if its
apparent merits are confirmed by practical test of
the machine in operation, we can readily imagine
that 1t will prove of great value to Government.

GREAT RAILROAD CONTRACT AWARDED TO AMERICANS.
A private letter that we have received, dated Rio
Janeiro, April 30th, says
''The Board Of Directors of the Don Pedro III
Rail Company have awarded to the american Jid'
the contract for all the work the entire Second
Section of their Railroad that was advertised
to be let. This contract, at the engineers estimate
will amount to about three and a half millions of
dollars. There about 2l2 miles of the road vet
to be let, which, if the contractors carry on the
second section satisfactorily it is expected will be
placed in the same hands, This will amount 70
some twelve millions. The Americans had to CON
tend against powerful English opposition but with
complete success. '-PhiIa Bulletin.
