I have already shown, that although the characters separating Lepas, Paecilasma, and Dichelaspis are not very important, yet if they be neglected these three natural little groups must be confounded together. Dichelaspis is much more closely united to Paecilasma than to Lepas, and, as far as the more important characters of the animal's body are concerned, there is no important difference between them. Consequently, I at first united Paecilasma and Dichelaspis, but the latter forms ...

Certain private citizens (for in that day it was thought ignoble for a government to embark in torpedo warfare) fitted out in New York a schooner, the "Eagle," in the hold of which ten kegs of powder, together with sulphur and piles of heavy stones, were placed. In the head of one of the casks were two gun-locks, primed, and held in place by two barrels of flour. Should either of the barrels be moved, the lock would spring, and the terrible mine would ...
