PUMPS.
IRWICH AGAINST. ALL ENGLAND, TEN POUNDS
TO A CROWN.
SHALDER'S FOUNTAIN PUMPS.
The most povserful. in ,the world, with which a man of
stone weight can raise .an imperial barrel of water forty-
;es feet high in a minutes but with no other Pump yet tried
a minute and a-half. Their practical gain is most extraor-
inary, seldom beloW 70, and more frequently above 100 per
it., taking the average 'of the results of every altitude from
Foot to 100 feet high. - This remarkable gain in the art of
sing water was effected in the simplest manner possible,
mg merely by substituting a rolling instead of a sliding prin.
le for Pumpk, by which their friction and leakage was abo-
led, after the tens of thousands of bootless attempts that had
been made by the ablest mechanics in the world for 2,000 years.
;For a long time after this immortal invention was publicly
itroduced, a host of bullying novices insulted society by pre-
icting that it would prove limited_ and frail, who are now
ivellii.g about that their trade would be ruined, because
iuntain Pumps prove 300 per cent the most durable ;she-
•r used by the power of man, horse, or steam, and They are
economical 41 invariablo in their action, ihat they corn-
only perform fait maltsters, brewers, and dyers for years with-
the least ex,pensu or the slightest 'variation. Also, so re-
sarkably simples' that smiths, millwrights, wheelwrights, car-
enters, &c., as well as hydraulic engineers, successfully um.-
lertake their fixing and reparation., neither are Fountain
'lmps retarded, 4hoked, nor injurectl3l occasionally delivering
. few tons of sand, although a very little of that material soon
deranges and seriously damages the best Friction Pumps. Slowly
indeed, the art of raising water approached perfection 4,000
years ago. The beautiful Miss Rebecca brought up water from
a R ell in a pitcher upon her shoulder for her sweetheart's

camels.
Since then appeared the four principles, namely, two limited,
and two unlimited principles., two of them sliding principles;
one44viral principle, and dnitiitsrping principle.
The Chain-pump in aci-iOn itArect and simple ; but by
friction and leakage very defeCtiye and dreadfully uncertain,
and from its numerous parts highly complicated. The Chain-
pump is a combination of inefficient expensive lumber—a
limited sliding principle. • .
2d. Archimedes' Screw-pump is founded upon a brilliant
idea; but its applicability is very confined—a limited spiral
principle.
3d. Tesibies' Pipe and Poker Pump, or the Athenian Squirt.
This is the root and principle of 'all Piston and. Pyyltder
Pumps, under every name and modification. All Pumps.upon
this plan are of necessity bad beyond remedy, and stupid indeed
must they be who expect the contrary, because mostly above
two-fifths of the labour employed is entirely wasted by their
friction and leakage, and when accurately tested against the
new principle, always prove to be but contemptible machines.
Nevertheless these imperfect Pumps stood unrivalled for the
last 2,000 years—an unlimited sliding principle.

4th, and last, Shalder's Pump appeared and made laughing
stocks of the other three Pumps, and exalted the art of raising
water to a science. The Fountain Pump is neither more nor
less than the Pump made absolute, because without an s-
coverable s-
coverable defect or imperfection, it possesses every ess ial
property for the purpose intended in the highest degree.
AN UNLIMITED ROLLING PRINCIPLE.
Dr. I3irkbeek. President of the Mechanics' Institution, Len-
don, says the Fountain Pump is free from the liabilities and
defects of the common Friction Pump, and approaches a perfect
Hysiraulie Machine.
The Vice-President, Professor John Millington, Esq.,
F.L. S., published a work in 1830, and therein makes a rash,
false, foul, and silly assertion, that the new principle is limited,
and although, from its diminished friction it has its advantages
in some cases, it cannot be used for great elevations. Never-
theless, Fountain Pumps prove equally durable for lifts above as
below one hundred feet. Millington might surely have known
that flexibility was no proof of frailty, nor rigidity of durability.
The rigid teeth of mamma and her four sisters were mostly
gone, but their flexible tongues remained in full activity when
their ages, united with their only brother, exceeded five hun-
dred years. And the Connectors or (flexible Cones) in Foun-
tain Pumps prove also not only surpassing durable, but almost
indestructable.
