(See Tacit. pected, the problem of perpetual motion. Annal. III. 41.) In general, hydraulic machines are put in motion either by the force of men or animals, or by the natural course of water, or by fire. Mr. Louis has found a means of raising a column of water strong enough to force another to the same height, which produces in its turn, the same effect. Thus, when the impulse is once given, this machine would perpetually retain its action, if there existed a fluid which did not lose by evaporation, or material indestructible by use. One may, however, employ a quantity of water sufficient to keep the machine in play for several years. This same machine may be employed as the impelling power, for the production of various kinds of regular motions. The inventor proposes to adapt a clepsydra to it, and he is convinced that by means of a basin or reservoir, a private house might derive various advantages from it. HISTORY. ROMAN ANTIQUITIES LATELY DISCOVERED IN SWITZERLAND. Helvetia. But it was not known till lately, that the Romans had settled in this place 8 or 900 years earlier, and for the space of 500 years (viz. from the year 50 before the birth of Christ till 460 after) that they possessed It was not till 1809, that on was dug up at the bottom of the cellar a pulling down an old canon's house, there tolerably well preserved Roman tomb stone (Lippus), with an inscription which proved that the Romans were formerly settled here. It is remarkable that this is the highest trace, yet known, of Roman settlements in the canton of Berne, for farther in the mountains, lived the unsubdued old Helvetic or Celtic mountaineers, among whom the Romans never penetrated so as to form a permanent establishment. A particular account of that tomb-stone and the inscriptions on it, is given by Mr. Francis Lewis Haller Von Konigsfelden, in his work called "Switzerland under the Romans." In the course of the year 1816, in the Crypt, or subterraneous chapel of the church of Amseldingen, which had long served as a potatoe cellar, but was then cleaned, and lighted with windows, there were found two other sepulchral inscriptions, on two of the four stone pillars which support the vault of this chapel. The stones on which they are carved were probably found on the spot when In the little village of Amseldingen, in the the church was built, and employed as macanton of Berne, about a league south west terials.

Acicius, which they perhaps should The second inscription is broken into two pieces, one of which is fixed in upright, the other reversed: it is as follows: . AMILL. POLYNICES VIXIT ANNOS ..... This second inscription is not so easy to translate as the first, because the name of Polynices, which is in the nominative, does not suit with the name of Taulo, which is in the dative; so that notwithstanding all the pains taken to copy each letter accurately, there still seems to be some error. However, one sees that this is also an epitaph in honor of two men, one of whom, Polynices, was a Lydian by birth, by trade a goldsmith, and belonging also to the guild of the carpenters; in which he had filled all the honorable offices, and died at the age of the number is effaced; and the other, Amillius Taulus, was Polynices' son, likewise a goldsmith, and of the guild of the carpenters, who lived 33 years. That a goldsmith from Lydia should have settled 1700 years ago near the place now called Amseldingen, will not seem surprising to any one who recollects, first, that Livy and Cæsar mention the great fondness of the ancient Helvetii for gold ornaments; and secondly, that by means of the Roman armies, Asiatics as easily came to all parts of Western Europe, as Gauls and Germans to Asia. Perhaps, under the emperors Vespasian and Titus, who, between 70 and 80 after Christ, made war in person in Palestine, and who were both benefactors to Helvetia, founders and patrons of Aventicum, (Wiflisburg) some Asiatic families may have left the East (then a scene of disorder) out of love to those excellent princes, in order to settle in a country which was favored with their peculiar protection.
