17xceptions be taken to the former contrivance in respect of the deal register rod, they may be obviated by thy substitution of a tin tube, or slender metallic rod, although we are informed that straight grained, well seasoned deal will not be liable to such irregular curvature or change of form as to affect the accuracy of the experiments, more particularly if coated over occasionally with paint or the common varnish procurable in every bazar

10. The entire cost of this apparatus, together with a slight temporary superstructure for its reception, is calculated at £150 or £200. In India, where labour and materials are so much cheaper than in this country, the cost certainly ought not to ex ceed that sum Of the other designed by Mr Bunt, which we are told is equally exact and efficacious we deem it unnecessary at present to speak more fully, as a description of it is now in course of publication in the transactions of the royal society, who will decide upon its superior fitness.

11. The construction of eithr of these self-registering tide gnages being restricted to those places where it may be desirable to have continugas hourly observations, a much simpler coutri. vance has been suggested for the others, of which we transmit in the packet a description for your information.

12 It is sufficiently plain and easy of construction the expense attending it therefore cannot be great. We are given to under. stand that even this in the hands of any one who can note down the observations in writing will, with proper care and attention, afford data of considerable value to science.

13. It is only necessary to remark farther that the time and height of the tide should invariably be stated and int-red immediately in a proper record kept for that purpose, as little or no seliauce can be placed on memory or loose memoranda in researches of this nature. The observations should be noted moreover according to mean time as given by a good watch or clock regulated for the place, and not according to sola, time or if the time be corrected by the sun, allowance should be made for he question of time.

14. With these particulars it is desirable to combine meteorological observations, with which view proper instrumen's will be furnished at any early opportunity, together with a complete tide guage, and such portions for four other as may be made up at less expense in this country than in India We are inclined to believe from professo Whewell and Major Jervis have represent ed that intelligent natives are perfect y competent, under proper supervision, to th se experiments, which evidently require a much larger share of patience and attention than intellectual qualifica. tious. This conclusion is grounded on the result of some labori ous, and as it may be amigined rather delicate investiga ion of the hourly oscillations of the barometrical tides. astronomical phenomena and vibrations of the penulum, in which with proper training and superintendence they have displayed an aptitude which is highly creditable.

15. It must be clearly borne in mind that while we are anxious that these important objects should be attained with the greatest Bccuracy, it is very far from our intention to sancion a large outlay; nevertheless to do justice to our intentions qualified persons must be selected and prepared for the work, and the whole machinery must be set in motion and superintended by some one who not only feels an interest in its progress but as the power of controlling the parties employed, and in such ca acity will regu late all his proceedings with the strictest economy. informed by the Lords Co.ninissiouers of the a laicalty they cou side Major Jervis, as he s in i mediate conmunication with his royal hizhoces he president of the royal society, and the philoso phers" ost deeply interested in these enquiries. In this arrangeinent we are disposed to concur, inasmuch as it will supersede the necessity of any separate charge beyond the allowance this officer will othe wise receive in his proper vilicial capacity alter b.s return to India.

Explanation of the subjoined sketch (referred to in para 11 of Marine letter to the Governor General of India in Council, No. 4 da ed 12th September, 1838.)

This simple contrivance for registering the tides consists of a pole, (it may be a cocoanut or beetlenut tree) firmly imbedded in the ground to which a vertical tube is to be lashed of 2 or 3 inches diameter, (it may be either of tin or a straight bamboo) corressponding in length to the rise and fall of the tide where it may be required and in this a float, (either of cork or an air-tight tin box) carrying a staff marked off to feet and inches, to rise and fall with the water in the tube.

The end of the tube should be closed up and the sides perforated to allow the free ing ess and egress of the water, while the Boat within is very slightly, if ever, affected by the oscillation

of the waves from without, whereby the steady progressive rise and fall of the float in this maintained uniformly the same under all circumstances.

It has an index, consisting of a bit of wood or iron, perforated so as to admit the measuring staff, and attached to the extremity of a wire in the prolongation of the tube. This serves equally to guide the staff, and keep it in a vertical position. The division should be marked off and commence when the water is at its men or some standard level.

This apparatus will serve to shew the greatest and least height of each successive tide, when immediate access is precluded by stormy whether, merely fitting two rings on the measuring staff, one a love the other below the index, which shall move freely, without constraining the ascent of the float, yet so as to remain on the rod wherever placed.,
