Probably upon no other single subject, save that of navigation of air, have so much thought and energy been expended as upon the conservation and utilization of the power exerted upon our sea-coast> by the force of the waves. And certainly since the days of the alchemists and astrologers few themes of thought pursued for practical ends have resulted in so little reward to their students. For with all the theories of securing power from wave-action that have been evolved with all the designs of machines for such purpose that have be n drawn, and with all the patents that have been granted upon such drawings I do not know to-day of a single' machine that is an unqualified success, or for which the success stoutly claimed by the inventor is borne out by the actual operations of his working model.?Jonx ?
