APPARATUS FOR TAXING FLYING SOUND NGs.-The apparatus for taking flying soundings- an English invention = has attracted much notice from naucalit men. It consists of an oval weight of lead, thirty pounds, attached by half a fathom of hemp cord to ring or thim- ble properly secured on one end of length of 200 fathoms of piano-forte wire coiled on an exceedingly light wheel of thin galvanized sheet iron of about foot diameter, mounted on . framework fixed in convenient position on the ships taffrail. The wheel has second rim, with a simple kind of fric- tion brake, by which a constant force of five pounds is applied to it when the wire is running out. There is also att tached to the same shaft ratchet wheel and pawl, which can be thrown out of gear or into gear at pleasure. A counter to count up 200 turns completes the ap- paratus. To take sounding by it the plan is to let the weight hang by short cord direct from the wheel and clear of the taffrail, and then to lift the pawl and throw it out of gear, holding the wheel by hand till ready to begin, then to let go the rim and stand by. The moment the wheel is heard to go slower the rim is to be laid hold of with both hands, pro- tected by 8 piece of canvas or thick leather gloves, and stopped. It is only necessary to read the counter, and the sounding is complete. Two men, work ing on handles applied for the purpose, haul in the wire and recover the lead easily and speedily. .......
