Cutting Cold Steel With Soft Iron.

These operations will toughen aud

Mr.. Jacob Reese, of Pittsburg, Penu
sylvania, had occasion to construct a
machine for cutting bars Of cold
hardened steel. For this purpose he
mounted disc Of about forty.two
iuches 10 diameter, made Of soft
wrought iron upon horizontal axis,
so as to be rotated with velocity.
With any moderate speed no cutting
was produced. But on giving tho
disc such speed of rotation as to
cause the periphery of the disc to
move q velocity of $4,000 feet per
minute (nearly FIVE miles) the steel
was rapidly cut, especially when the
bar to be cut was slowly rotated
against the disc. Sparks ia a steady
stream were thrown off. At first it
was supposed that the steel was simp-
ly rubbed or ground of. But on ex.
Htlining the pie Of accumulated pur-
ticles benoath the machine they were
found to be welded together il the
shape of long oono, similar to the
stalugmites in the limestone cavos !;
they were nearly like the spikes of
frost as formed in winter on Mount
Washington, and illustrated at the
Troy meeting. Roal fusion takes
place. The steel is melted by the
swiftly moving smooth edge Of the
of the soft iron disc, but the disc it.

waves all by herself, and having a
merry time, when young Esculapius

serious cause for apprehension of in,
surreotion in the disturbed oouuties,
but owing to the timely and p, udent
action of the whites all danger had
passed. The great mass of the col.
ored people really knew nothing of
the gravity and danger Of the plot
into which they were being led by a
bund Of negroes. He eounselled pru.
dence and forbearauoe. All men,
white and black, should be protected

Ho would geo to it that peaoe and
order and good government were pro-
served bya rigid enforcement of the
laws. The courts were open, aud all
violators Of peace would b. tried and

aud there was no reason to apprehend
any further infraotions OF peace. He
will offer rewark of $500 for the
