The large corps of draughtsmen who prepare the patent drawings are for the most part experienced mechanics, or electricians, engineers, some of them having been connected with the U. S. Patent Office. Most of the cotrespondence is carried on by tvpc writers, and ths necessitates a separate department, where a number of experienced female type writers and stenographer are constantly employed The dark room, where the photographs of the patent drawings aie copied, and where the photographs for the department are developed, is also on this floor. On the floor above may be found the editorial rooms, compositors and subscripton room, and the engravers department. The Agricultural Department occupies the too floor and here may seen he managers of this department, and also a number of draughtsmen at woik pieparing the plans and general designs for the Architect and Builder edition of the Stienlifc American, which is published monthly, and which has attained a widespread circulation. The printing of the papers is carried on in a separate building. At the entrance of the main office, which alone occupies a floor space ol 60 by 165 feet, may be seen one of Prof, Irapers remarkable re cording barometers, with which instrument a complete record is kept of the This baromchanges. atmospheric eter was built specially for the Scietitif-i- f American, and it is a Temarkably fine and sensitive as well as a very expensive instrument. Some idea may be had of the extent of the business done at the office of the Scieti-tifi- c American when we state that over one hundred persons are employed by Munn & Co.on their several publications nnd in their extensive patent archi-teotur- e. The horse that brings $20,000 at a public sale must be a steed, hf gold high-metal- From an article on this subject in the Aransas Pass Beacon we clip the Allowing. As Utah is so deeply interested i securing deep water on the boast of Texas this artidwill be welcomed by our readers. Is it true then, that $1, 471.000 will give the people of Texas and the great west, one of the best, safest free seaports in the world, with twenty felt of water? And the necessary woik can be done in a few months, shall 10,000,000, of the best producers in Amricca be deprived of its advantages, merely for the benefit of a few greedy monopolists? We do not persume to set up our judgement in opposition to tQtt of the skilled engineers of the U. S. Army, but having studied the question closely, we hope to be excused fob making a suggestion. Since the Gulf stream runs in closer to Mustang and St. Joseph islands than anywhere else and the lattoral flow from that wonderful sea current coming abruptly against their shores is lorced to run back betwwen the Gulf stream and the islands. The force of this reflnx current must be confined to a very narrow channel. This is proved to be the case by the formation of the bar in front of Aransas Pass. Which is scarcely one half mile from the head of Mustang island. The bar is evidently constructed by the confluence of the lattoral current and lattoral flow from the Gulf stream. Where they meet an eddy is produced and tlj sand is deposited. If ajetty from Mustang island be run out beyond the bar, it is clear, that the entire reflux current be forced through the pass.augamented by the lattoral flow from the Gulf stream. Now the question is if.a jetty be extended out from St. Joseph island, will not the arrested snd pent up waters force themselves over the Island and make a new pass into the bay? We are satisfied that the jetty built by Col. ftfansfield, if completed to thirty feet of water in the Gulf, will give us that depth over the bar, and sweep the loose mud and sand, out ol Aransas bay. If Congress will give us I1.500.000, and place Col. Mansfield in charge, it is our opinion, that the government will have here in a short time, decidedly the best naval station on the continent and the best commercial harbor in the south. Give us Colonel Mansfield. He stopped the erosion of Mustang island and obtained twenty two feet of water as far as he built the jetty, and with a little more money, that depth would, have been permanently maintained. Send us Col. Mausfield if deep water is desired." The oldest tree in- the World, like jokes, is a chestnut. It stands near the foot of Mt.
