To Nepean 1793
Signal for
taking Station
at the lube – a
Cracker fired at
the other end.
N.B. The
crackers are very
small and loud.
Experiments
Hygrometrical
Barometrical
Hydraulic
Acrological
by means
of such a body of
secluded at command.
---page break---
Will sound when
transmitted in this
way be as long in
travelling as in the open air?
If so, at 1000 pr
second it would
above 5 1/4 seconds
travelling a mile
Could a Whisper
be transmitted to such
great distances?
Could the ordinary
voice?
Would it remain
articulate?
If not, would
the notes of music
retain their pitch?
If so, conversation
might be carried
on by only trumpets
or rather by organs
notes being put for
letters.
24 notes being too
large a scale, the
alphabet might be
contracted within the
compass of an octave
by means of different
stops
Half notes should not
be adopted employed
as not being sufficiently
distinguishable

To ascertain whether
the persons with whom
there may be occasion
to converse are ready
for conversation, certain
words of course
should be exchanged
at stated periods.
Would curves or
and angles make
any and what
difference?
Half a mile the
extent of Panopticon
Hall grounds would
afford a very instructive
experiment with
in respect of a
distance of many
miles: if there were
no perceptible diminution in
1/2 a mile, there
might be none in
many miles: if
there were a perceptible
diminution
in the one case, it
would afford grounds
for instructi conjecturing
the degree
of diminution in
the other.

Between the Rotation Offices
of Magistrates tol
and the Watch-Houses
under their respective
jurisdictions.
Between each
Dwelling House and
the Watch-house of
the Parish
Between the Rotation offices and the War-office.
It would not cost
so much to lay security protection each house
as to lay
into houses.
The Protection
Pipes might accompany
the Water Pipes, and by being
enclosed in within them be
protected against
accidents.
