THE SqjENTIFIO AMERICAN.
The Scientific American came out of
the late fire in New York, like the fa
bled Phoenix, with renewed life. The
subscription lists, account books, pat
ent reoords, patent drawings and cor-
spondenee were preserved in fire-proof
safes. The printing of the Scientific
American and Supplement was done in
another building, consequently ihe
types, plates, presses, paper, etc., were
auharmed, and no interruption of
business was occasioned.
The now Scientific American offices
are located at 261 Broadway, corner
of Warren street, a very central and
excellent situation. Here, in addition
to the issuing of their interesting pub
lications, Messrs. Muuu & Co., aided
by trained examiners and draughts
men, preparo specifications and draw
ings for Amerioan and foreign pat
ents. If any of oar readers should
happen to make a new discovery (we
hope every one of them may do so
and gain a fortune) they bavo only to
drop a line to Munn & Co.,261 Broad
way, New York, who will reply at
once, without charge, stating whether
the invention is probably novel and
patentable.* A handbook Of instruc

Tbe dispute between the members

of learning, but whose diploma was a
disgrace. In the German University
of Heidelberg the roffiianly students

fidelity scrapes no lint for tho wound
