The first part Of the will read in the usual

this my last will and testament" Its admission
to probate was opposed ON the ground that it
was not signed by the testator at the end.
Mr.. Fl. X. Moore, who appeared for the es-

THE SAND-BLAsT.-This new mechanical
agency, which has lately attracted good
deal Of attention amon., scientific mechanics,
has been introduced into the marble and
glanite-cutting establishment of James G..
Patterson, Esq. The idea of using sand
to cut stone with was first suggested by its
known effect upon windoW-gass. in houses
standing in exposed situations OH the borders
of windy sea beaches. The constant blow
ing of the sand against the windows would,
in the course of years, abrade the glass to Il
very perceptible degree, cutting its smooth
surface as by Il shower Of diamond-dust.
This fact led to experiments on sand
blast by steam power. The result is surpris-
ing. The machinery is simple. A movable
carriage and IN automatic arrangement OF adj
Unstable ratchets moved by pulley and belt
gives the required motion to the blast Or the
surface which is to be cut. A large box
overhead lets down the sea-sand--thoroughl
dried--through flexible tube into posi-
ton from which it is driven by steam power
through little tube or pipe, in stream of
one-cighth Of an inch diameter, upon sur
face of marble or granite. 1t cuts even
granite like the chisel of skilled workman.
The outlines, form, and proportion of
the desired figure arc obtained by very
slow movement Oh the carnage by the
ratchet, according to the adjustment.
The sand thus driven cuts away the hard
est granite-so fast, it is said, as to afford al
important advantage over the hand-abor of
any workman. The forms we saw were sum
dry lines and figures in scrollwork, left In
alto reHevo---the granite Icing cut away
around them. All vermiculated work, and
other ornamental work on granite buildings,
can be done much quicker and cheaper. it is
expected. by the sand-blast than it is now
done by hand. Only a pint of sand an hour
is used.-HdrtforG (G.) Times.
