When Watt began TO introduce his
steam engines, be wished to be able t.
statetheirpower as compared with that
ot horses, which were then generally
employed for driving mills He accor
dingIy made a series Of experiments.
which led him to the conclusion that
the average power OF a horse was sut
ticleut to raise about 80 600 lbs. oi. g
foot in vertical height per minute, and
this has been adopted in England and
this country as the general measure OF
power.
A waterfall has one horse power for
every $4,000 lbs. Of water flowing IN
the stream per minute, for each foot OF
tall. To compute the power ola stream.
therefore, multiply the area of its cross
section in feet by the velocity in feet
per minute, and We have the number
ot cubic feet flowing along the stream
per minute. Multiply this by 81, the
number Of pounds in q cubic foot OF
water, and this by the vertical fall in
feet, and We have the foOt-p0uuds per
minute OF the fall; dividing bv 80 0OO
gives Us the horse power.
For example: stream flows through
a fumc 10 feet wide, and the depth Of
the water Is feet; the area Of the cross
section will be 70 IT, The velocity is
l5D feet per minute-41xl5O equal 10
5000, equal to the cubic feet Of water
flowing per minute-6000x623 J equal to
$4,000, equal to the pounds Of water
flowing rmin. The width is 10 feet;
l0X375,gQ0 equal TO 3,750.0C0 equal to
the foot pounds of the waterfall. Di

The power of a steam engine is cal
cnIated by Multiplying together the
area Of the piston in inches, the mean

the length Of the stroke In feet, and
the number Of strokes per minute, and
dividing by 33, 600.
Water wheels yield from 80 to 81
per cent Of the water The actual
power of a steam engine is less than
the Indicated power, owing to q. loss

NJ. /. SMITH, Pastor,
Newton Hamilton. Pa.

SlaCkWatsr.-SOme preliminary meas
ures have been taken with view OF
adapting the Juniata to slackwater navi-
CATION. There is certainly nothing in the
road to prevent this from being carried
out. a. the fall Of water from the Newton
Hamilton dam down is quite regular, and
from thence to Huntingdon but little diff
ticulty would be encountered. Such a
change would soon create steam naviga-
ton, and present ii sight few ever antici-
pated on the Blue Juniara." 1t has al
ways appeared to Us that a channel for
light draught b0ats-such as are used on
the Ohio-could be made at a compara-
lively small expense, by removing rocks
AMI stones for a breadth Of 80 or 100 feet
as although in many places the river an
pears quite shallow 10 the eye, the real
depth on the rifles is never less than from
one 10 -wo feet, as any one can test by an
attempt at wading, and in most places
much more. Many boats on the Ohio
draw only about 70 inches, so that navi-
CATION here IS not so unfavorabIe a. some
imagine. for it Is evident that if even q
channel such as we speak Of. were clean
ed ouy, q fiat bottom steamer could make
its way from Duucan's Island to the old
Aughwick Falls at the present stage of
water without difficulty.

A New Invention.-A new invention,
which promises 10 be useful to, everybody
and prohtable't TO the inventor has just been
patented by Mr.. D. B. BAKER Of Rollersville,
| who has already contrived several labor
saving and money saving machines.
The Scientific AD,erican of July Goth has
the following notice of the invention, which
describes it better than We can.
The accompanying, engraving presents a
view of a simple metallic fastener for closing
the mouths of bags, sacks, etc. for holding
grain, meal, flour, and other substances. Il
is always ready, and never out of order {;
can be readily attached and detached, and
[ Twill last life time, while IFS cheapness is
one of IFS best qualities 1t is merely two
lssegmeDtal strips of hard rolled brass con-
nected to joint of wire passing through the
bag and being held BY q strip of Heather in
side and by the bending of the ends of the
lTwire. One end of one of these sesments
has catch made by punching section
lAhrough the band and bending ftibto hook
on the inner side while the other segment
has series of holes punched through it for
the reception of the hook. The upright
bag in the engraving shows the band fasten-
ed and encircling tae moutk Of the bag like
collar, and the empty bag shows the
segmepts unfastened and hanging loosely.
BY the method of attaching to the bag-a
wire passed through the ends of the two
segments, the bag, and a reinforce of leather,
with the two ends brought down and toward
one another--the contrivance is very secure
ly fastened so that it is impossible that it
should gisesway ; yet, at the same time, it
eaUb readily removed, if desired, BY simply
anbendIng OF Strengthening the wire This
fastening is1Eery light and will outiast the

when required, and never, like a string

The patentee. is iIeady, to give practical
test Of the usefulness Of his invention to all
who desire it. He will sell manufacturing
and territorial rights, or the entire right O.
