Neu Improvements in the electric light
will come into sharp competition with
NJ. Jablochkofi's inventions. But as
he is still engaged in making his own
contrivances more efficient, he is at least
likely to keep even with the foremost.
Among the recent inventions of this
sort, which are favorably spoken Of, is
European one which operates by the
expansion Of silverwire, that moves a
train of wheel-work, so as to regulate
the height of the carbons. In the Brush
electric light recently shown before the
Franklin Institute, of Philadelphia, the
carbons are coated with copper, so as to
diminish their rate of burning, and en-
able them to be made more slender; ;
their regulation as 10 height being
effected by peculiar compensating
machinery. The Brush magneto-elec-
tric machine was also exhibited before
the Institute.

SCIENTIFIC.

Latent Heat.-The amount of heat
lying latent in motion, and waiting only
for the arrest of motion to become
sensible. is suggested by Prof. Tyndall,
the author of "Heat as a mode of mo-
tion," in this way:
"The shock which would be created
were the motion of the earth to cease
would be sufficient not only to set the
whole earth on fire and melt it, but also
to convert it into whole mass of vapOr.
The heat would be equal to that derived
from the combustion of IA globes of
coal, each equal to the earth in magni-
tude. And if after the stoppage of its
motion the earth should fall into the
sun, as it assuredly would. the amount
of heat generated by the blow of con-
tact with the sun would be equal to that
developed by the combustion of 5,60e
worlds of solid carbon"
Possibly, says the Indianapolis News,
that star which recently appeared to
burn out and become nebulous, as if re-
turning to its Primordial condition, was
halted in its course by some disturbance
and took fire from the effect of il. If
the sun and its system were formed of
incandescent vapbr set in motion, as La
Place holds, and the arrest of motion
produces heat, the natural suggestion
of the relation would be that the heat
of halt of the earth would be sufficient
to return the planet to its vaporiform
state. Ii came out of that state by mo-
ton and stoppage of motion should send
it back.
The question then would be whether
this gaseous condition would be pro-
duced so instantaneously as to prevent
the earth from falling into the sun, as
its gravitation would force it to do if its
diurnal motion should cease and its
dense condition should continue for any
perceptible time. Ii it did fall the heat
of the collision would vaporize it, and
If it didn't it would be vaporized first.
So in any event everything would be
gas, and the work of creation, or evolu-
ton rather, might begin again. For if
one of the planets should be put out of
place the rest would tumble out to-
gether, and the system 60 to ''staves"
in no time.
| This, then, may of be one the dozen
or so ways that the world is to come TO
an end. AS the heat of the sun, by the
Tyndall theory, is maintained by the
fall of meteorites, comets, yagrant, un-
known planets, and all sorts OF cosmical
bodies into it, there is a color of reason
in the fancy that some time this fuel of
the system may be used up, and the sun
90 out. Then the world would come TO
an end for the want of heat, instead of
too much heat, unless it and the other
planets with it fall into the sun to-
gether, and then all will be vapor again.
And thus creation and destruction, pre-
psratory to fresh creation, keep going
on forever.
The system will run down and out in
certain millions Of centuries, and then
it is wound up by being retured to the
"primordial fire mist" and set to run
through the same course again. This
present solar system is only one plane
tary generation, and for all We know
may not be the first, but the the tenth
or the hundreth, which gives one big
idea of eternity.

Mr.. Edison, the inventor OF many i'm
provements in telegraphy, is hard at
at work in the endeavor to make the
telephone record the sounds in trans
mits. His apparatus at present consists
chiefly Of a steel point attached to the
disk of telephone, and pressing light
ly on strip of paper passed beneath
the point at uniform rate. The vibra-
tiOns of the disk are thus recorded, and
can be translated. Mr.. Edison has al
ready achieved some success in this at
tempt, but as yet finds difficulty with
the more delicate vibrations. The in
vention suggests an ultimate possibility
of reporting a speech at distance, YER
batim, without the need of shorthand.

4 Lirerpool Correspondent of The Eng
lish Mechanic describes an engine in
which gunpowder was to give the mo-
tive power. There was a cylinder etc.,
like the corresponding parts of high
pressure steam engine. Outside the
cylinder was brass wire, heated by a
lamp. The supply of gunpowder was
in a hopper, from which a plug tap, re-
volving with the flywheel, carried a
small quantity of gunpowder, and at a
certain point in the movement dropped
the portion of powder on the red-hot
wire. The working of the engine is
thus epitomized: "The theory was
beautiful; but upon the first trial, un-
fortunately, the whole affair 'went Off
so completely very nearly taking
fathers head along with it) that he 'let
it went, and did not make any more"

Ifaly's Jealousy Of England.


Inc lfallannavy consists Of twenty
vessels, three of which, when they are
all completed, will DO the largest in
the world. Cavour, two days before
his death, said to his friend Farini.
speaking Of the arsenal of Spezzia
which he bad caused to be construct
ed: 1T will require twenty years to
create q fleet capable of defending our
coasts. But we will accomplish it,
and have directed all my efforts to
this end" 1t is now seventeen years
since Cavour's death, and although
the navy IS not yet as powerful as it
will be made, Italy is yet ina condi-
ton to make herself respected on the
seas. Who can tell how soon not on
ly the moral but the material force Of
the defenders of her coast may be
called into action? 1t has certainly
not been without protest at the So
called Peace Congress that Italy has
seen the western shore of the Adriatic
occupied by Austria, and England
posses herself of the island of Cy-
prus, thus, with her strong fortress of
Gibraltar ard Malta, becoming virtual
mistress of tho Mediterranean. France
and Italy do not look upon these en-
croachments of England favorably,
and will watch the future movements
of that nation with Jealous eyes.
Marseilles, Genoa and Venice NAV be
rival ports for the commerce of the
Mediterranean, but they would have
common interest in repelling power
which injured this source of their
prosperity.

ALEXANDER SHELTON has developed
a new theory about the North Pole
which he thus breaches to the world:
"The result of my cogitations is, that
possibly at this pole lies the Garden
of Eden, and that the original tree oil
life still exists there to fulfill the pur.
pose Of Jehovah, in his own appointed
time Moreover, that the cherubim's
flaming sword, turning every way to
guard the tree of life, is the cutting,
piercing cold Of that latitude, which,
when taken in connection with the au-
rora borealis, as it flashes and darts
in the northern armament, makes the
fgurative language of Scripture plain
to our understanding"
