Dvrr,v,s,ua LoNerrupr At SEA.

DETERMINING LoNerrUDE At SEA-
A petition has been presented to the
British House Of Commons, by ]. O.
Ewart. from N. -. Maillard, Of Liver
pool, praying for inquiry into his i'm.
proved system Of asoertaining the
longitude at sea. The Liverpool Post,
says: 4.
The petitioner states that he has
for many years devoted his attention
TO the construction Of chart and so
lar compass, by which time or lopgi-
tude may be determined within a
fraction of second by a simple bear.
ing Of the sun or other celestial body;
or n mariner, by finding in the
almanac the time Of the rising of the
sun at Greenwich. will be enabled,
by reference TO the chart, TO correct
The errors of the chronometer without
celestial observations or instruments of
any kind. A perfect method of cor.
recting the chronometer being laid
down, that instrument, ms arranged
by Mr.. Maiftard. exhibits the true
bearing Of the sun throughout the
twenty.four hours, and would, there
fore. be nj all times available for
steering ships or for correction OF the
compass.
In l7l4 an act Of Parliament was
passed, empowering certain commits
sioners 10 offer n reward Of 100000
TO any person who should determine
the longitude within ten geographical
miles and, in l76l, Harrison made
a chronometer, which, after several
trials. was deemed sufficient for the
purpose of navigation, and he re-.
ceved at various times sums amount
ing to considerably more than f20,.
600. In case longitude should be
determined by improved astronomi-
cal tables the reward was 20 he
So. 900. From the passing Of the act
down TO the ptesent time, Parliament
has voted several sums 70 chrouome-
ter makers. The largest and most
recent was awarded to Earnshaw, over
fily years ago ). but all that has been
done thus far to improve the instru-
mentatiou employed in navigation
gives little more than approximation
to the truth, fact which is painfully
and amply proved by the heavy annual
loss Of life aud property at sea. This,
in The opinion Of Maillsrd, as express
ed in his petition, arises from The in
strumeuta,ion now employed being
uuavailing when celestial observations
cannot be made, and from the errors
which creep into those observations
when sights are to be bad.
Mr.. Maillard states that he prosecu
ted the subject from the point al
which others have ceased their inqui
ries. and has discovered that, as tb,
sun gives true time, The instrument
which keeps solar time necessarily
gives The suns true direction through
out the "a hours, and thereby enables
the mariner, by the arrangement o
the petitioners solar compass, TO as
certain the bearing Of the sun at al
times for the correction of steering
compasses, aud the time-keeper itself
but, being aware that all mechanica
contrivanoes are subject 20 variations
he has laid down in his chart read,
means of correcting and determining
longitude by u simple arithmetica
rule, and has reduced all those alb
struse elements of navigation, which
have hitherto formed a heavy astto
nomical and mathematical study, e
the simplest aritbmetical rule and me
chauical method, suited TO the capaci
ty Of all classes of mariners.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.
Thaddeus Hyatt, President of the Kansas
Aid Committee, will, on the lst of Februa-
~, appear before the Committee in relation
to the disposition Of the funds received by
the Tribune for the relief of Kansas in the
fall Of 1856. 1t is now reported that the
promised letter from Senator Wilson cannot
be found, but the testimony of Realf and
Wilson himself as to it's contents will prob
ably be taken as sufficient. DIR. Howe, tu
whom the letter was written, has not been
subp0naed to appear.
He is now in Canada, and it is said he
will have nc hesitation to appear and testify
if wanted. Mr.. Giddings had never refused
10 come here. He has been absent from
home on q lecturing tour, and the subpoena
sent to Ohio for him did not reach him, but
a notice of the fact has reached him in an
other State, and he is daily expected here.
Old Browns son, John, jr., will not con-
sent to come here, nor Sanborn, of Mass,
either. H
The Superintendent Of the lei Paso and
Fort Yuma wagon road for the construction
Of which an appropi iation was made in
1856, has been indicted by a Grand Jury Of
this District, upon a charge Of fraud, for
gerry, &c. An avalanche of witness from
Boston has been precipitated upon Washing
ton to testify in this case, but the witnesses
say they have no knowledge Of what they
are expected TO testify to.
