Moving the Hippodrome.

"The Great Roman Hippodrome," about
resemble a moving camp. There are 200
men, women, and children in Mr.. Barnum's
service, and the ''happy family includes
seven hundred and fifty horses and ponies,
besides elephants, camels, English stays
and stag hounds, trained ostriches lions.
bears, tigers. and other animals. For the
exhibition Of the menagerie and the various
shows, and performances connected with
the enterprise, two enormous tents. each
five hundred feet in length and three hun
dred in width, have been provided, one of
which will be kept in advance, i'll order that
no time may be lost by delay in making
ready The question of transportation by
rail-a very serious one-was solved by the
construction of one hundred and fifty cars,
twice the usual length, built expressly for
this purpose. Among them are number
of "horse- palace cars, constructed with
commodious stalls, in which the horses can
lie down and rest while ON the journey,
and arrive at the place of exhibition quite
fresh for the performance. Besides moving
the tents, animals, and all other material
in these Hippodrome cars, berths will be
provided in those devoted to the personnel
of the company for nearly all the employees.
As we'll as the great exhibition tents, there
are cooking and dining tents, and stable
tents for the horses and other animals.
There is also attached to the company
large corps of blacksmiths and carpenters
and builders, some Of whom precede the
show several days, to make ready for the
exhibition by preparing the ground, erect
ing seats, &c. The dressing-room tents
alone will cover more ground than an ordi-
nary circus. To move such an enormous
establishment without hitch or delay re-
quires the employment of clear-headed,
practical men at the herd of each depart
ment. Everything is so arranged as to
move with the smoothness and precision of
clock-work. At the appointed hour the
canvas will go up, the street procession
will move, and the performances will COM
mence. When all is over, and the great
tents emptied, everything will be packed
up by those detailed for the work land the
caravan, without the loss of minute, will
be on the move toward the next place of
exhibition. Home Journal.

The Velocity of a Cannon Shot.

1t is difficult to describe the chrono-
scope without a diagram, but it is easy to
indicate the general principles of its action
in few words, and this will be sufficient
for our purpose. A gun having been Sc
ected for the experiment, six OF eight holes
are drilled in one side of it, penetrating to
the bore, at intervals along its length from
the seat of shot to the muzzle. Through
each of these holes an insulated wire enters
the gun, its lower extremity being in con-
tact with, but isolated from, sharp cut
ting edge, so arranged i'll the bore Of tile
gun that the passage of the shot would
force it down upon the wire and destroy
insulation. Each of the wires is connect
ed with the secondary wire of an induction
coil. The recording apparatus consists of
a series of disks of polished silver, coated
with lamp-black, and made to revolve 81
multaneously by the action of falling
weight and multiplying wheels at very
high velocity. One of The disks corresponds
to each of the wires, the end of which is
placed in small Gischarger close to its
circumference. On firing the charge, the
shot cuts the insulation of wire after wire
in rapid succession, and as each is cut a
current passes, and u spark darts from the
discharger to the edge of the revolving
disk, striking off a speck of the lamp-black,
and leaving the bright silver bare. Now,
supposing the velocity of the circumference
of the disks to be 1000 inches per second,
and the mark Of the electric spark on the
second disk to be one inch farther on than
that upon the first. this would show that
the shot took the one thousandth part of
second to pass from the first wire in the
gun to the next. In reality, the time is
even shorter than this. In the 10-incl gun
300-ponnd shot, with charge of forty
three pounds Of powder, passes down the
bore in something less than the one two
hundred part of second.
So delicate is this apparatus that, by diyid-
ing each inch of circumference of the disks
into thousandths with the help of the YER
nier, the one-millionth part Of second
would become an appreciable quantity

is exactly 654 yards, 2 #. 4 inches i'll cir

and to complete the full distance required
to be traversed 81 times less 70 yards. The
mare started well, completing the first lap
in one minute nine seconds. the second in
one minute seven seconds, and. three laps
in three minutes twenty-five and one-lialf

which she did in one minute four seconds,
none other exceeding that of the first. She

Paint for Shingle Roofs.

4 correspondent of the New E~gla1sd
Farmer has this to say about the subject,
which may prove profitable to some of the
readers of the Rural NeW Yorker: In re-
gard to shingles, have seen the highest
cost shaved pine fail in ten years ; and | ex-
pect the cheapest, sappy, sawed pine will
last that length of time. Roofs are 50 ex-
pensive to keep in repair, that it behooves
every man who has had experience with
them to contribute when he can for the
general good on this all-important sub
ject.
In the future | intend to lay lowpriced
shingles-say from 80. 70 to $500 per thous-
and-and paint them with coat of tar and
asphaltum-say one barrel of coal tar, cost
ing $500. 10 Tbs. of asphaltum, at Sc, 30
cents 10 lbs ofground slate, at 1c, 10 cents,
2 gallons Of lead oil, at 25c, so cents, which
should be added aften the other has been
wetted and thoroughly mixed.
consider the above mixture as good as
anything that can be put on the shingles,
as it will thoroughly keep the water out,
and if dry they will not rot under the lap,
nor will the nails rust, and | know of no
reason why they will not last as long as
shall want shingles. The mixture should
be put on hot, in a dry day, and upon a dry
roof
1t has been asked 10y some, why not paint
shingles before laying? answer, because
the sulphur in the tar would rust the nails.
When put ON hot, the wood almost wholly
absorbs two coats, and the rooflooks as well
as a slate roof The cost of the preparation
is only about twelve cents per gallon. The
asbestos and various other preparations cost
from seventy-five cents to one dollar per
gallon. In my opinion none Of them are
any better than the above. Ground slate
Or asbestos is fire proof; so, also, is the tar,
after it has dried thoroughly. The last
shingles l laid cost $2,75 per thousand !;
nails, 25 cents per thousand paint, 12 cents
per thousand and I now consider it as
good as any roof ever had or saw.

Aleutian Mummies.

The national museum in the Smithsonian
Institute has just received eight mummies,
taken from a cave on one of the Aleutian
islands. The traditions respecting them
indicate that they are at least 100 years old
and antedate the discovery of the islands
by the Russians. One of the bodies, in a
sitting posture, was encased in rude cask-
ct of raw-hide, lashed in netting OF sim
ews, all in an excellent state of preserva-
ton. Another is without covering, and is
about as hideous specimen of remnant
of male Aleute as could well be imagined
Five of these valuable chronological types
will be retained by the museum, and three
have been presented, one each to Yale Col
lege, the Peabody Institute at Cambridge,
and the American Museum at New York
City.

Cromwell's Skull.


Mr.. Horace Wilkinson, of Seven-Oaks,
Kent, England, claims to be the owner of
the skull of Oliver Cromwell The Pro-
tector died on the Sd of September, 1868, in
his Goth year, aud was buried with great
pomp in Henry VII. 3 chapel, after lying
in state at the Somerset House, at the ex-
,pense of EGO, ,000 The coffin which con-
tanned the body had been privately deposit
ed in Westminster Abbey before. and it was
only to his effigy these costly honors were
paid. It is claimed by Mr.. Wilkinson that
after the restoration CromWelrs body was
exhumed and hung at Tyburn, and then
buried beneath the gallows, but the skull
remained on the top Of Westminster Hall
and, having been embalmed, defied the at
mosphere for twenty-five years, when it
was blown down one day and picked up by
the sentry. It was then purchased by a
Mr.. Cox for 4 museum, whs sold it for
e250. The spearhead tint protrudes
through the skull is covered with rust, and
the skin resembles, hard, dry leather.
