SCIENTIFIC.

A recent Nautical Inuention.-A new
and improved style of reefing gear has
been introduced, by which the bonnet
can be taken from the jib on deck with
out going out upon the bowsprit, or
lowering the jib-the latter can be kept
full of wind while the bonnet is thus
being taken off or put on. The reefing
gear contrived for this purpose is a
composition toggle, with sheave in the
emu, and fastened TO the bonnet with a
back plate; the toggles pass through the
gommets of the jib, and reefing line is
drawn through the toggles under the
sheaves, acting as key to fasten the
bonnet in. In taking the bonnet out, a
preventer is used in the foot of the bon
net, while shifting the sheets upon the
jib; the reefing line is then pulled from
under the sheaves, and it drops out. BY
Stacking up the halyards and pulling
down on the tack which is fastened to
the foot of tie jib and reeved through
block on the end of the bowsprit run
ming inboard, the jib will be brought to
its place. All lug sails can be reefed in
the same manner. 1t is alleged that US
ing this kind of gear Will prevent the
sails from fulling up when wet, or sag
ging down wnen dry, and will set as
well as whole sail; it has also been
found not to ice up so as TO prevent
working. This gear is made TO fit all
sizes OF gommets-it can likewise be Ia
ken from the old sails and put upon
new ones, and is capable of wearing out
a number of suits of sails.

DURING the recent eclipse the Pueblo
Indians of Taos, New Mexico, were
much agitated. The chieftain of the
village came forth in great excitement,
and declared that some one had commit
ted Il great sin, the destruction of the
village was imminent, or, at least, the
extinction of the sun. Three trusted
passengers were therefore sent to the
priests to coniure them to keep the
eternal fire ON the altar burning at its
brightest, while all the women of the
village were ordered to strip themselves
naked and run in pairs round the race
course. where the foot races took place.
Thanks to these simple precautions the
eclipse saon passed of. The custom of
having the women run these races in a
nude state is universal with the Pueblos
on occasions of this kind. They have a
tradition that Montezuma was betrayed
into the hands of the Spaniards by his
daughter. and it is thought probable
that the requiring of the females to hu-
initiate themselves as penance for the
original crime committed by one of their
sex against this dignitsTy grows ont Of
the tradition.

VIM We Lay Behind.

In commenting upon the display OF
American mechanical inventions at the
Paris Exposition, the London Times
declares that "the activity and insight
of the American inventive genius de-
velops more that is new and practical
in mechanism than all Europe COM
oined. The New Englander invents
normally; his brain has a bias that
way" And it is further pointed out
that invention belongs to no class, but
chat members of all classes and callings
invent as occasion offers. In spite OF
CHS, however, the writer claims that
England leads the world in the process
of celebrating the great mechanical In
yentions. Fulton built the first sue
,.essful steamer, but all the latest and
most important advances in steamship
building are English. The monitor"
was an American invention, but all the
maritime nations of the world have left
the United States far in the rear In the
building of iron clads. The complete
revolution in gunnery may be traced to
the experiments of Dahlgren and Rod
man, but then all the nations OF Europe
began when the United States left off.
phe Times does not say, but the impli-
cation is, that the American brain is
fertile and persistent in seeking new
eypedients, but that it lacks the tenden-
CIV to perfection. 1t is seeking new
ways of doing things, not so much I'M
proved ways of doing them. There is
something in this, doubtless. But it Is
not true to the full extent. Sewing ma
chimes and small arms have been per-
fected in America, and at the present
moment the tendency OF invention is to
double back and improve ON the old in
ventions. 1t will be found that in every
case instanced by the Times the appa-
rent failure of American invention has
been due, in great part, to the failure OF
the government to do its duty. 1t has
been 80 notably in the case of heavy
gunnery and iron clads, and it is 50 in
directly in regard to iron steamships.
The government has been hampered by
the "no-government" delusion, and III
inventions requiring the all of govern
ment in bringing them te perfection we
have fallen to the rear. But this is no
fault of American invention. The slim
Mus which is supplied by other govern
ments is wanted here, and hence inven-
ton follows another path. But the
breakdown of the no-government
school seems TO he well nigh complete,
and we may look forward to the day
when the United States government
will give that attention to the perfect
ing of certain inventions that the ad-
vanced nations of Europe notably
England-ncw do. Aud when that day
arrives the American inventor viii not
be found taking anybo,ly'> dust. -

A prominent member in the Cabinet said
to-day that although the affairs between Eng
land snd Russia are regarded as being threat
eninp. and he believed war would be averted by
wise counsels of the two nations. 1t is consld-
cred that unnecessary comment has boen made
in various quarters as to the open purchase by
Russia of ships and munitions of war in this
country which might be used against England
in the event of war between those nations,
while some newspapers apprehend that in such
a case England might in the future prefer Tor
consequential damages. Such fears, however
are ill founded as there can be no violation OF
neutrality during peace, all nations being at
liberty to purchase supplies of whatever char
acter in this country, and even Russia could
purchase them at this time in the absence OF
the proclamation Of war in England.
