In Hyatt's (Fig. 5376), the ball is held between chucks a, attached to opposite spindles, and moved toward each other by right and left hand screws. These are operated by two spur-wheels b b gearing into two other spur-wheels c c on a longitudinal horizontal shaft, so that the ball may be chucked centrally over the center around which the tool-post is carried.

olating the neutrality laws of the United States during the Crimean War. In 1856, cooperating with counsel from Ohio, he made a noted application to Judge Curtis, of the United-States Supreme Court, for a writ of habeas corpus, to test the authority by which the Free-State prisoners were held confined in Kansas by Federal officers. More lately, in 1859, he initiated and directed the measures to procure suitable counsel for the defence of John Brown in Virginia; and, in 1860, was counsel for Hyatt and Sanborn, witnesses summoned before Senator Mason's committee of investigation into the John-Brown affair. Upon his argument, the latter was discharged by the Supreme Court of Massachusetts from the custody of the United-States marshal, by whose deputy he had been arrested under a warrant issued at the instigation of that committee. Being himself, about the same time, summoned before the committee, he appeared at Washington, and rendered his testimony. Nor had he hesitated, under his t

proper environment of such men. In 1850, the Scientific School was established, and under the instruction of Agassiz, Gray, Wyman, Peirce, Eustis, Horsford, a number of teachers were bred who, I have said, have extended the spirit of research over the entire continent. In the early days of the Scientific School, a number of remarkable men were here as students or as assistants. I need only mention among them the names of Simon Newcomb, Asaph Hall, Dr. B. A. Gould, S. H. Scudder, Morse, Hyatt, and Putnam. At the time I now speak of there were no well-equipped laboratories in Cambridge. The observatory was the only endowed scientific institution, and there the two Bonds—father and son —initiated the astronomical publications which have continued in such full measure. In the work of the Bonds we perceive the beginning of that careful physical study of the planets which has now become such an important part of astronomical research. In those early days, Cambridge, too, contrib

Whereupon he levelled his gun and shot Condray through the bowels, who only lived about four hours. Rev. Mr. Parke

short. After passing for several miles under the enemy's fire unharmed, the noble steamship finally came within the protecting range of the guns of Fort Sumter, and swept majestically up the city. How far the Yankee naval officers indulged in profane expletives as they beheld what would have been a very plump prize slip from their grasp, we leave to the imagination of our readers. The Ella Warley brings a valuable assorted cargo, consigned principally to Messrs. John Fraser & Co., Hyatt, Mcburney & o., and Kerrison & Leading. Her passenger list is as follows. G. S.

Hyatt, the officer in command, who has inspired the "natives" in that section with a peculiar respect and admiration, they having learned that though courteous, he is decisive and firm. Capt.

Michael Driscoll, co D 2d La, was arrested as a supposed deserter, and for attempting to get a passport on false papers to go to Sidney to become a substitute. Sergeant Mansfield, of co C, 14th La, escaped from Castle Thunder yesterday morning. He went to the guard and pretended that no was a friend of the Adjutant of the prison, and threatened to have him (the guard) put in the lock-up if he did not allow him to pass. The guard (James Childress) who permitted the prisoner to pass was subsequently arrested and confined for suffering himself to be imposed upon thus.
