111 R. SMITH'S NEW STEAM-BOILER.

Pursuant to our promise of last week, we now proceed to
report the further experiments that have been made upon
bit. Smith's Nivea boiling apparatus.
We formerly stated, that a scientific am,utr-boiler had au-
perinttaded the process ut boiling syrup in the patent
boiler, and had approved highly of the effects it produced.
The day following, in the course of his ordinary business,
he boiled some of the saute sugar in the common way ; the
result has been, that after the first elaying, the material
boded in the patent apparatus alsewill an obvious amp tk-
tided superiority.
The next experiments were upon granulating and clay-
in,. East India sugar. The great obj ction to this article
o: commerce is, that though in colour it is superior to A-
nna any West Indian sugar, it is just 411 far inferior in
grain or crystal. This, it is supposed, arises from some
want of knowledge or care in its nutnufacture. A quantity
of flue lisnarus sugar was put into the holler, and in te:
mistake after the fire was lighted, it was declared fit for
being potted. A similar quantity was then put in, while I
thy both/ was hot, and was prepared in eleven minutes.'
The loaf sugar thus produced is very fine for a first clay-
ing ; but it is feared that there well he a couttlerablc leis
iu the draining or of syrup and molasses. The experi-
ment, Itutvcri r, is not yet complete, at, that it is nut quite
Lair to talk decidedly on the subject.
The last experiment, which was performed on Saturday
morning, was to prove whether the new steam-biller can
improve the grain of inferior West !Mimi sugars, and in
this it has completely succeeded. Two charges, or st;vp-
pings, as they ate technically tennol, were run off in 13
minutes and a half each. So far everything has been suc-
cessful.

Mr. rut 'siva), the proprietor of the patt•nt, is at present,
we untlerstarAl, at Northwieli, in (71tut.hite, en paring to use
th • sppsratus on a very tAtensire stab•, in the manufacture:
