lockade-running; but, on the contrary, the number has steadily increased within the last year, and many are understood to be now on the way to engage in the business. The President, in a communication to Congress on the subject, says that the number of vessels arriving at two ports only from the 1st of November to the 6th of December was forty-three, and but a very small proportion of those outward bound were captured. Out of 11,796 bales of cotton shipped since the 1st of July last, but 1272 were lost — not quite 11 per cent. The special report of the Secretary of the Treasury in relation to the matter shows that there have been imported into the Confederacy at the ports of Wilmington and Charleston since October 26th, 1864, 8,632,000 pounds of meat, 1,501,000 pounds of lead, 1,933,000 pounds of saltpeter, 546,000 pairs of shoes, 316,000 pairs of blankets, 520,000 pounds of coffee, 69,000 rifles, 97 packages of revolvers, 2639 packages of medicine, 43 cannon, with a large qu

During the time between the two expeditions we had begged for more ammunition, but Interior view of the three traverses of the North-West salient, adjoining the River road. [see map, P. 645.] from a photograph. none came except a few useless bolts designed for the Armstrong gun. In the former fight we had fired 1272 shot and shell; leaving about 2328, exclusive of grape and shrapnel, to resist a passage of the ships and an assault by land. I was obliged to husband my ammunition even more than in the previous battle, and therefore gave the same orders that each gun should be fired only once every half-hour until disabled or destroyed, except when special orders were given to concentrate on a particular vessel, or in case an attempt were made to cross the bar and run in, when every available gun should be

D. 250; Anglo-Saxon, A. D. 800 to 1066; Anglo-Norman, 1066 to 1135; Early English or Pointed, 1135 to 1272; Pure Gothic, 1272 to 1377; Florid, 1377 to 1509; Elizabethan, 1509 to 1625. The subject is copiously and admirably treated in many excellent works. Its interest in a work of this character is not as an art, but as requiring machinery to hew and shape the stones, construct the foundations and the roof, and also calling for ingenuity in providing the building with its material accessories for safety, ventilation, warmth, light, and convenience. The following are dates assigned by some aut

de of brass skelps, turned over and soldered. They are then forced on to a steel mandrel and drawn through a die. Fluted tubes are drawn through ornamental dies of the required form. The mandrel is frequently cylindrical. Joint wire is a fine tube used by silversmiths and watch-case makers. A small pipe is threaded on a piece of steel-wire, and both are drawn through a die, like a piece of solid wire. See pipe; lead-pipe. For lead-pipe making and lining with tin, see pages 1271, 1272. For making of gun-barrels, see pages 1032, 1033. For bushing, see page 413. See also pipe, pages 1707, 1708, and list under that head. For tubing for oil-wells, see well-tubing. 2. India-rubber tubes are made: — 1. By wrapping slips of rubber or rubbercloth around a mandrel of glass, which is afterward withdrawn, the layers and the edges being joined by solvents or heat. 2.

r and useful institution, published annually. The greatest achievement of the Saur press was the Lutheran Bible, both Testaments complete, issued in 1743. See also Book III, Chap. XXIX. As the preface stated, this was the first time in the Western Hemisphere that the Scriptures had been printed in a European language; the Bible of John Eliot (Cambridge, 1661-1663), had been a translation and adaptation in the language of one of the North American Indian tribes. Saur's Bible, containing 1272 pages, was printed in quarto form, on paper manufactured in Germantown and with German types imported from Frankfort-on-the-Main. The second edition appeared in 1763, and a third in 1776. Saur also printed the New Testament and Psalter in separate editions, a large number of hymn-books for various sects, and some hundred and fifty books and pamphlets on a variety of subjects. His most influential serial publication was his newspaper, Der Hoch-Deutsch Pennsylvanische Geschicht-Schreiber, od
