The Baltimore Shot Tower.

The burning of the interior of the Mer-
chants Shot Tower, on the night of the
22d ult., only caused the destruction OF
the machinery and fixtures, and left the
solid walls undisturbed The FIRE origin
ated from a furnace 150 feet from the
ground, and, of course could not be reach
ed by the fire engines. The estimated
loss, $4,000, is covered by insurance, aud
the work of replacement is rapidly going
on. No one who witnessed it will ever
forget the majestic column of fame which
arose from the top of the structure and
illuminated the city.
The tower, which is the highest build
ing of the kind in the world, and one of
the finest specimens of brick work in the
country, was constructed in 1928 1t is
234 feet in height and rests upon a
foundation seventeen feet in depth, and
on solid rock which makes it free from
vibration, except during the heaviest
gales, when the maximum vibration does
not exceed four inches. The walls are
six feet thick at the base, and eighteen
inches at the parapet The diameter of
the tower at the base outside is 40 feet 3
inches, and inside 80 feet IL inches.
The stairway had 3O2 steps to the top of
the tower, with IL floors, only two for
dropping shot. The first dropping floor
was 149 feet and the second 1877 feet high.
The lot on which the structure stands is
los feet on front street and 80 feet on
Fayette street Before the fire 80 tons,
or 1000 bags of shot could be dropped
from each drop floor every ten hours,
with finishing capacity of 1000 bags in
ten hours. The works were supplied with
all modern machinery, and were arranged
to increase the quantity to 1900 bags fin
ished shot daily.

Remarkable Echoes.

In the sepulchre of Metella, the wife
of Sqlla, in the Roman Campagna, there
is an echo which repeats FIVE times, in
five different keys, and will also give back
with distinctness hexameter line which
requires two and one half seconds to utter it.
On the banks of Naha, between Bingen
and Coblentz, an echo repeats seventeen
times. The speaker may scarcely be
heard, and yet responses are loud and dis
tinct, sometimes appearing to approach,
at other times come from great distance
Echoes equally beautiful and romaltic are
to be heard in our own island In the
cemetery of the Abercorn family, at Pal
sley, when the door of the chapel is shut,
the reverberatiOns are equal to the sound
of thunder, If single note of music is
breathed the tone ascends gradually with
a multitude of echoes, till it dies in soft
and bewitching murmurs. In this chapel
is inferred Margery, the daughter of Bruce,
and the wife of William Wallace The
echo at the Eagles Nest" on the banks
Of Killarney, is renowned for its effective
repetition of bugle call which seems to
be repeated by hundred instruments,
until it gradually dies away in the air.
At the report of cannon the loudest thun-
ders reverberate from the rock and die in
seemingly endless peals along the distant
mountains. At the Castle of Simonetta,
nobleman's seat about two miles from
Milan, surprising echo is produced be-
tween two wings Of the building. The
report Of pistol is repeated by this echo
sixty times, and Addison, who visited the
place on somewhat foggy day, when the
air was unfavorable to theexperiment,
counted fifty-six repetitions. At first they
were very quick, but the intervals were
greater in proportion as the sound decayed.
1t is asserted that the sound of one musical
