The iron-work for one of theao PresseI will cost sonething about $10() i- can be put up in ihe gin-roons., worked by osie or two men, will occupy nine feet in; hiighi. seven feet in width, and about four f'eet in depth.

The torthconung number of the Ameri can Itepertory contains the details of a plan 1-or protecting cities and shipping from the e-fer. of lightniug. which will be read wish mtrh jiticrest. It is a singular cir cuust.antce that the plan appearu to havoe beien h upon almost simultaneously is thi cutary and in France. In the latter it has bcen proposed, as we learn from G;alli;:uani's les-senger. by M. Arco, witha a %iew ifdi-charging clouds of their elec tm- fluid, and thus prevenitng hail-storms. which nre generally produced by t wo cur rents of clouds charged with positive anl nle;;aive electricity. crossing each other.- - .\. Ar::o recomtmends that a small balloon,. priperly secured, armoed with netaille points and communicating with the ground by a rope. covered with tmetallic wire liku a harp-string, should be kept perntnenth floating in the air at a considerable heigh& over the spot which it is wished to pre serve- fromti she eftfcts of lighrning or hai!. nod he expects that by such an npparatuos as thiE, a cloud might have its content., entirely drawn ofT. ie proposes this i, an imssprovCment upon Frankliti's experi mnuct cof the kite, with which he obtain.1 electric sparks front a cloud. fu this country a similar plan was tn. tured several months ago, and commuui ated to some scientific gentlemen bly MUr. 1. A. Powers of this city. This was long before Mr. Acago's plan was given to the public, which shows that the ideas wers < in detail. and proposing more extended awd practical beuefits. 1r. Powers proposes elevating. at the approatli of the thittder cloud, a halloon of oil silk, arned at tite top with a hollow metallic cooe with several finely pointed ramI iiications. anal surroundeh by two thi, ssetahic' h-inda cr.wsing each either at right angles and cennaectiug the cone with a rope wound wi th metalli A ;e which .shouhl reach to the earth an-i hr conne'ted with a metal frame work, by which thie. balloon aay lie depiessed oir elevated at pienssre. Tle frame ahoulh ha% t me tallic communication 15 or 20 feet e-. the surface of the ground, so that th, a - tric fluid may be snore readily dis-a;;. This is a general view of the plasn; % - lave not room for further particular. There is little doubt that if'cnrried in.,, practical 4zperaiion clouds could he easily dfisch:rged of their, electricity. and reu dered entirely harmless in that respect. The Repertory states that 31r Power.; has nmatured a plan expressly for protect. irig this city, by which, for an nenual ex. petse of three cents on each building. ie proposes to protect the w!...-e city nod tls shipping in she harhir, and that ihe plan. o;;ether with modcli, &c. illustrative of its practicability, will shortly be msade pubhlic.
