I BEG LEAVE TO CALL THE ATTEN TION of the public to this wonderful Steam Engine, which is cheaper, lighter, less intricate, occupies less space, consumes less fuel than any other engine, and is superior in every other way, it being in fact a double cut oft' Engine, without the friction ot a double set of valves with their multiform attachments, and for its superior merits was awarded the gold medal at the Maryland Institute Fair, in October, 186(i, over all other engines. This invention, therefore, forms the most radical and eutire change in steam engines which has occurred since the days of Watts, being durable, accurate, and econ omical in dperafibn in space boy on and all coinp'&tiaoQ with the past, and at liar less original cost thau over before attained.
