came up the aisle, Mr.. John Cassidy, and
Mr.. w. w. RUSSELL bearing a very pretty

a Perpetual Motion DIR. VIM. n GRAY

A Perpetual Motion. DIR. VIM. II. Gray,
of Frederick county. claims to have in
vented perpetual motion, after 20 years
experimenting. The Doctor has made
oath that his invention is run entirely by
the attraction of gravitation. The model
now on exhibition consists OF wheel 26
inches in diameter by 8 inches in width.
Across the Wheel keyed to steel axle,
are bearings in brass boxes, which are set
in wooden frame resembling the struc.
ture between which the wheel Of a grind
stone is swung. This wheel encloses two
smaller ones, % inches in diameter, be-
tween which weights are placed. BY
mechanical movement these weights are
made to move TO and from the centre Of
the wheel. The weights descending on
the large wheel are ingeniously arrested
and shifted to the opposite side by the
smaller ones. The model exhibits 30
pounds or power at the journal, while re-
curing only pounds at the rim to move
it, and makes revolutions per minute,
while an 8-foot wheel will furnish 200
horse power
