tor and treasurer, letting the first floors out
for stores or other purposes he knew of
no better plan than to build proper Offices Of
which the city might be proud. It could be
done by levying tax of $4,000 yearly un-
til the edi6ce was finished. In this way the
people would not miss it-they would not
know it if not told by the papers. He OBJ
jected to bonds as the most expensive way.
BY issuing bonds the public would pay at
least four times as much as by ready cash
but there are some persons who seem not to
care how much thing costs SO long as they
can put off the pay day.
After remarks from several members Of
the board the communication was referred

Just 21O years ago Robert Hooke, Fellow
of the Royal Society, published work en-
titled Micrographia; or, Some Physiology
cal Description Of Minute Bodies Made by
Magnifying Glasses, with Observations and
INQUIRIES Thereupon." This, the first Eng
lish treatise on the use Of the microscope,
is still In high estimation. In the preface
(sig. b. ~ occurs the following remarkable
paragraph:
"And as glasses have highly promoted
our seeing, so tits not improbable but that
there may be found many mechanical nven-
tions to prove our other senses, Of hearing,
smelling, tasting, touching. 'Tis not i'm
possible to hear whisper at furlong's
distance, it having been already done; and
perhaps the nature OF the thing would not
make it more impossible though that furlong
should be 10 times multiplied. And though
some famous Authors have AFFIRMED it i'm
possible to hear through the thinnest plate
of Muscovy-glass, yet know way by
which tits easie enough to hear one speak
through wall yard thick. 1t has not been
vet thoroughly examined how far Oto-
cousticons may be improv'd, nor what other
waves there may be Of quickning our hear
ing, or conveying sound though other bodies
then Ethanl the Air; for that that is not the
only medium, can assure the Reader that
/ haze, by the help of a distended eoire,
propagated the sound TO a Uery considera-
Ole distance in an instant, or ,oith as SEEM
inqly quick motion as that OF light. at
least, incomparably swifter then [than] that,
which at the same time was propagated
through the Air; and this not only in a
straight line, or direct, but in one Bonded
in many angles"
