The vassel was making water, and, to save the crow the heavy Inbour of pumping ber, a windmill, with simple machinery, was connected with the pumps. When the wind was blowing high, recently, the mill was revolving with great velneity, and doing the work well. Such as appliance was lately adopted with marked ad vantage on board
Aberdeen guanó-laden vessel, which aping leak when she was a muath out at sen, on her voyage from Callar to Lob. A bandy carpenter, who was on board, set to work at the suggestion of the captain, and rigged up a windmill which relieved the crow of their extra work, and enabled the crow sad! ship to arrive enfe in port. The use of the windmill for pumping argos is very common ia America. They are couplogod on most of the North River is larger that ply between New York and the op country is stablishments.
