of several concentric rings; those of a smaller size are forged solid. Krupp's monster gun, at the Paris Exposition of 1867 (see illustration on opposite page), consists of an inner tube weighing 20 tons, upon which are shrunk cast-steel rings, far of 1871, and derives its name from the inventor. A paper cartridge is employed in the gun as originally constructed in 1867, but in 1869 M. Chassepot patented an improved arrangement, embracing a cartridge-retractor for use with a central-fire meg platens carrying forms which receive their specific colors from their own set of inking-rollers. In Baylies and Wood, 1867, an oscillating frame carries a series of rollers which are brought in contact with fountain rollers of a series of fountad to make the tubular spaces for the introduction of the whalebones. In the machine exhibited at the French Exposition in 1867, the principle of a constant length of travel for the shuttle was adopted for the sake of simplicity; but as it is necessa

The ammoniacal engine has been termed a gasengine, but this latter name is more fairly applicable to those engines in which the force is obtained by the inflammation of the charge, rather than to those in which the motor is an elastic vapor under pressure.

he river, destroy everything we have on these waters, unless they ran away ; and this without disparagement to the powerful fleet of vessels then on the Mississippi, several of which had received over a hundred shots each, while under the Admiral's command, without apparent damage. Of the monitors at Charleston, he says: They have done what no other vessels ever built could possibly have accomplished. Some 50 monitors were built for the United States government, between the years 1861 and 1867. Of these, some have one, some two, and some three turrets, each turret to contain two guns. The general principles were substantially the same in all, and the Ericsson plan of iron-clad vessels may be said to cover nearly everything in the way of armored ships now in the United States navy. The guns mounted on the monitors are generally 15-inch Dahlgrens, carrying a projectile of 450 pounds. A few 20-inch guns, to throw a shot of 1,100 pounds, have been made, but these are now at the Na
