J. X, Lowe. OF Quijotoa, has invented and
had patented u mechanical movement for
doubling speed and capacity OF many kinds
OF machinery without increasing the power.
II consists of rammel, or wheel, having
slots across the face at right angles, In
which block or glib plays forward and
back as the wheel revolves by the power an.
piled to shaft. TO each of these blocks a
main rod Is attached by wrist pins. As the
wheel reyolves one Of these blocks move to,
and the other from the center. This ar,
rangement gives two fun and complete
strokes to each single revolution of the
wheel II will do just double the work that
n single crank viii do, and with the same
power. He thinks when a practical test OF
Il is had, that II will be found at least a
fourth less power will be necessary to run
II, than is required by the old style single
crank. Mr. Banks u thorough and practical
mechanic, and Mr.. westgate, a capitalist
are interested with Mr.. Lowe in THIS piece
of mechanism. They have just got their
patent secured and propose to go to Califor.
mia soon and make a practical application
OF 1t to pumps, mowers, reapers, etc. As Il
can be used by wind, hand, horse or steam
power, aud for many kinds of machinery
at very little additional cost, IL is certainly
a very necessary and useful invention. -

Nutmegs grow on little trees which look
like small pear trees, and which are gener-
ally not over twenty feet high. The flowers
are very much like the lily of the valley.
They are pale and very fragrant. The nut.
meg is the seed OF the fruit, and mace is the
thin covering over the seed. The fruit Is
about the size OF peach. When ripe Il
breaks open and shows Il little nut inside.
The trees grow on the Islands OF Asia and
tropical America They bear fruit seventy
or eighty years, and have ripe fruit upon
them all the season. A tree In Jamaica has
over flour thousand nutmcgs on 1t every
year
The Dutch used to have all this nutmeg
trade, as they owned the Banda Islands aud
conquered all the trades and destroyed the
trees. To keep the price up, they once
burned three piles Of nutmegs, each OF
which was said to be ''as big as church, -
Nature did not sympathlze with such mean
ness. The nutmeg pigeon, found In all the
Indian islands, did for the world what the
Dutch had determined should not be done
