rage and buggy, manufactured by Messrs. Car

attention 1t is complete, and altogether is
most ingenious piece OF mechanism.
Master Mason is evidently chip OF the OLD
block. as his father has on exhibition several
pieces OF ingenious and useful work. One Is g
burglar alarm. The fence, gates and windows are
connected with bell by wires 80 charged with
electricity that when any one touches either OF
the objects named the bell rings The main wire
can be disconnected during the day. At night
when connected, II all gates, doors and win
dows which are connected with the lesser wires
be Shut the bell will be silent; but II one OF them
be open 1t will ring violently. An attempt by any
one to enter in not by the gate but by some other
way such as climbing over the fence the bell will
Immediately 60 ringing the alarm. That bell, un'
der the skilful management OF the inventor ap-

effect quiet entrance while 1t is on guard; II any
OF the wires be cut 1t rings most vclousy.
