Fine Measurements.

A Wilmington star reporter has
been shown at a machine shop in that
city a collection of gauges,
How accurate are these?" was
asked of the foreman Of the depart
ment.
They are true to within the ten
thousandth part of an inch, in tenn
perature OF rs degrees Fahrenheit"
was the reply,
Did you ever feel the ten -thous-
andth part of an inch?" he asked the
reporter, who replied to the effect
that he had never even seen, heard,
tasted or smelt the ten-thousandth
part of an inch.
The foreman, with a smile, turned
to small machine. tits theoretically
simple, but exquisite in workmanship.
In a small horizontal and perfectly
level iron frame work is adjusted a
horizontal screw, which carries one
jaw of a small wise, the other jaw be-
ing fixed. The screw has ten threads
to an inch. 1t is obvious, therefore,
that one turn of the screw will alter
the distance between the jaws of the
little wise Just one-tenth of an inch.
The head of the screw is a circular
steel plate, about four inches in di-
ameter. the circumference of which is
graduated into 100 equal divisions.
Turning the head of the screw
through the extent of one of these
divisions advanced the screw the one
thousandth pant of an inch.
The finer adjustment is made by Il
vernier affixed to the head of the
screw, which is 50 graduated that the
turning of the head until a division
of the scale upon its circumference
comedies with the nearest division on
the vernier scale, advances the screw
the one-thousandth part of a revolu-
ton, and widens or contracts the
space between the jaws of the little
wise just the ten-thousandth part of
an inch. As TIE screw cannot be
made absolutely true, there is an
ingenious attachment for correcting
the infnitesimally minute error in its
working, and, as a change in few
degrees in the temperature of the
room, or of the gauge to be tested,
would affect the nicely of the opera
ton, the machine is adjusted for a
temperature of Is degrees, and the
trials are made with the gauges at
that temperature.
Adjusting the wise jaws at one ten
thousandth of an inch more than two
inches apart, the foreman handed the
reporter a two inch gauge and told
him to pass it carefully and slowly
between them. Left to itself the
gauge fell freely of its own weight
through the space; but when made to
descend slowly perceptible pull was
felt from each jaw, analogous to the
pulling power of two magnets.
The foreman gave the head of the
screw an almost inperceptible touch,
making it coincide with the vernier.
The gauge would no longer pass
through; it filled the space between
the jaws exactly. That touch had
brought those jaws nearer together
by just the ten thousandth part of an
inch.

The WASHINGTON Bible.

The following petition was pre-
sented in the United States Senate a
few days ago by Senator Sherman:
To the Senate and House of Rep
reSentatireS Of The United States:
The petition of Betty B. Bassett of
the State of Virginia respectfully
represents that your pc esitioner is the
widow of George Washington Bas-
sett, late of the State of Virginia, and
the only child of Robert Lewis, who
was the son of Fielding Lewis and
Betty Lewis, his wife, the only sister
of George Washington; that your
petitioner is the sole owner of the
family Bible of Augustin and Mary
Washington, the parents of George
Washington, which contains n record
of his birth and Of his baptism. The
said Bible became the property of
the said Betty Lewis and was left by
her to the said Robert Lewis, her
son, and by him to your petitioner.
Your petitioner now being advanced
in years, is desirous that the said
family Bible may, Ill her lifetime, be-
come the property of all the people
of the United States. Your petitioner
therefore prays that a suitable ap-
preparation may be made by your
honorable bodies for the purpose of
purchasing of your petitioner so val
liable a relic of the Father of his
Country. BETTY B. BAssETT.
Senator Sherman, in presenting
the petition, said the Bible is I'M
doubtedly what it is represented to
be in the petition, and that il was
handed down to Betty Bassett pre-
cisely as she explained The old
book is described as being covered
with homespun cotton, which, it is
said, was made by Mrs. Washington
herself during the Revolutionary
War AT least so tradition has it.
Those who are acquainted with TIE
aged posscssor Of the volume, say she
is in moderate, If not actually desti-
tute, circumstances. The price to be
paid for the book, if it is decided to
purchase it, will be determined by
the Senate Committee on the Library,
to which the petition was referred.

THE PROBABLE. RETIREMENT OF
GLADSTONE.

IL was only few years since, when Mr..
Gladstone was a candidate for Parliament,
that he made use of the following language.
This Empire is an Empire the daily calls
of whose immense responsibilities task and
over:ask the energies of her ablest states
men,"
Since that period Mr.. Gladstone has ex-
Perienced the responsibilities of which he
then spoke to their fullest extent. Had he
not been a great man and remarkable
statesman, it is more than probable that he
would have long since given away under
the great weight OF the tasks which have
been placed upon him. II would appear that
a lull has taken place in the political affairs
of Great Britain, and this distinguished gen
tleman has indicated his appreciation of the
opportunity by paving the way for his re-
tirement from public life. His resignation
AS chancellor of the exchequer may not be
followed by his retirement from the position
of prime minister, but il evidently indicates
that he is tired of official duties and that he
will seek relief from their responsibilities at
the earliest practical moment.
Mr.. Gladstone has won the right to retire if
lac 80 desires. His administration has been
characterized by the most trying events
On his accession TO Office in 1880 he was
confronted by the ever present Irish ques.
ton. Lord Baconsfeld had pushed the
policy of repression 10 an extreme limit,
and Mr.. Gladstone was compelled to follow
up that policy Of lberality and compro.
mise. He chose the latter course Ii has
not been u success, but Mr.. Gladstone can
hardly be blamed. He has been unable 10
nave faster than bis party, and for that rea.
son bis policy has been one of concessions
and not reforms

ing land tenure would have met the situa.
ton, but that has not been done and Ireland
only waits for new opportunities to cause
disturbance.
The Egyptian war was also kind OF
legacy from Lord Beaconsfield which the
people OF England insisted on executing
and Mr.. Gladstone has carried il to a sue.
cessiul, IL not exactly creditable issue.
Those who have observed the progress of
political affairs in Great Britain for the past
fifty years. cannot have failed 10 notice the
prominent part that Mr.. Gladstone has taken,
aud now that o breathing place in his long
public life has been reached, it is not all
surprising To the rejecting mind, that he
should desire to retire before new compiled.
tons may arise. In all probability he Is st
the very zenith Of his political power and
popularity. II was Louis the xiv, "the
grand monarch" who exclaimed on mem.
orable occasion, u am the State" Mr.. Glad
stone labors under no such deluson; he has
important ideas Of craftsmanship which he
would like to see fully established, but he
must and doubtless does realize that II is
impossible for him To carry them out. For
these reasons and the appointment of Sir
Hugh Childers as chancellor OF the er-
chequer we think 1t more than probable
that Mr.. Gladstone will soon throw aside
his official robes.

the penalty of two years and a-half in the
House of Correction upon one Farrell, an
industrious working man, for contempt of
Court. Phelps was elected as an Independ-

is another evidence that it is dangerous to
