A Monster Time-piece.

The large clock at the English House of
Parliament is the largest one in the world.
The four dials in this clock are twenty-five
feet in diameter. Every half minute the
minute hand moves nearly seven inches.
She clock will go eight days and half, and
will only strike for seven and a half thus
indicating any neglect in winding it up.
The winding up Of the striking apparatus
takes two hours. The pendulum is fifteen
feet long; the wheels are cast iron; the hour
bell is eight feet high, and nine feet in
diameter, weighing nearly fifteen tons, and
the hammer alone weighs more than four
hundred pounds. This clock strikes the
quarter hours and by its striking the short
hand reporters regulate their labors. At
every strike new reporter takes the place
of the old one, while the first retres to write
out the notes that he has taken during the
previous fifteen minutes.
