PIPES. 
"The above engraving represents accurately a section of a ifeaden pipe, which was employed fora short 
time In conveying water from n well on the ground- of Mr DlClT, of Bonchuroh, Isle of Wight. The original 
section of pipe is In. long, 2J in. diameter, and 5 10 in. thick. A great purl of the internal surface is 
corroded by the action of the water; but, as shown In the drawing, four deep excavations have been made, 
and another is shaded out of view by the manner In which tho section of tlw pipe has been cul. Tho water 
bus cul these deep pit* almost through the pips, and not only upon tho portion which wo have illustrutsd, but 
ha» formed similar chasms throughout the entire length.”— Expositor.
