We were shown by On. Snedaker, of
this city, a very pleasing little instru-
mcnt made by David King, an ingenious
mechanic OF this place, for the amlse-
ment of himself and friends. 1t consists
of smooth disc with fiange-hke perl
iery suspended on d spindle, which Is ro-
taly on an axis within brass frame.
The rapid motion of the disc, impaired by
Withdrawing cord from the spindle for
short time, neutralizes the force OF
gravitation. The brass framework,
weighing some quarter of a pound, Is
suspended ina horizontal position, and
by an action impaired by the. revolving
disc swings free from the pivot, on which
one side OF it IS supported. One can not
look upon the motion impaired without
regarding the laws that govern the pla,i-
etary system. Mr. King calls his ma.
chine The gyroscope, and he has also
magnetic machine and an automatic
rain-gauge, which are maryeis OF me-
chanical Ingenuity.
