Novel Salvage Methods.

An interesting proposal brought forward by Messrs. Brunton Brothers, of St. Stephen's House, Westminster, of preventing the sinking of ships damaged below. the water-line by collision or other means depends on what seems at firat sight the parad- oxical expedient of pumping more", water into them. Supposing that a bow compartment has been injured and water is entering, their method is to pump the main circulating discharge water into a stern compartment, and fill it to a height above the water line; the "head of water" thus created depresses the stern and raises the bows, the water in the bow.com- partment being then free to rún out by the holes through which it entered until its level is the same" as that of the outside sea. this happens it becomes possible to discharge some of the water in the stern compartment, because only so much of it is required as will counter-balance the weight of the material of the bows, the water in the bow compartment open to the ses having no effec- forming, as it were, a part of the sea, and not of the ship. The final result is that the vessel is brought to an even keel her draught is greater than before the accident, but she contains Arrive Hongkong Leave Hongkongless water then she did when
