RAISING WATER discovered by the FOUN-
TAIN PUMPS, which roll the water upwards, without
either friction or faltering, therefore can never be surpassed • conse•
quently this is the most important discovery ever made for the pre•
servation of life and property either at Sea or on Land.
AT SEA

numerous ships it has already saved, and the captains gratefully ac-
knowledge the glorious results. Two testimonial extracts shall
suffice :---

" Captain Oreg. from Quebec to London, states that the Fountain
Pump being titled in the-Carolinejts great power was tke means of
saving the ship and 230 souls on board, two seams in the bottom
being partly left without calking."
" The Argus brig, from Cadiz, sprung a leak wken three days out
at sea, and soon after her common pump choaked and became use-
less. Captain Rutherford states all then depended upon her Foun-
tain Pump, which for nineieen days and eighteen nights was is ac-
tion withoat a minute's resnite, when all arrived safely in London.
with a thank God for the Foaii.ain Pump."
ON LAND

the New Portable Fire-engines are better service than a
Are hii;ade. They act instantaneously at the outbreak of a fire.
We are delighted with the invention—it is a great boon to so-
ciety."—Edi Zors Liverpool Mall.

Tbe New Portab'e Fire-engines have preserved a large portion of
Norwich from destruction, for out of eighteen different properties on
Are in arid near the city, they saved eleven solely and seven mainly,
including in the ...even the Queen's Cavalry Barracks ; and In the
eleven, Messrs. Norton's dyery, and 12,0001. worth of consigned pro-
perty; Stoke mustard, starch, and flour mills, and 3lessrs. Butcher's
grocery warehouses, just in time to prevent a large quantity of gun-
powder therein from exploding, which must have spread around de-
struction and death.

" North Waishanh—At this fire the Portable Engine was of great
service, and by having one of them ready, there is no doubt but half
the property now destroyed might have been saved."—Norfolk (Aro-
nide, August 22, 1846. _ .

At a Norwich lire June 2, 1847, the two Portable Engines were

the pets of the public. The cry was, feed the little engines and they
will do the work, which proved true. The four large engines present
proved useless.

Portable Engines speedily prove steam-boilers to a dozen atmo-
spheres.
Now the fact is this, all former Force Pumps, Lift-force Pumps,
Lift Pumps, and Chain rumor are bad machines : they rub, grub, and
scrape the water upwards by friction, which wastes two-fifths of the
power used, and pi egressively falter by leakage, which Drs. Young
and Hutton, wi,li many other eminent experimenters, lamented
thus : —The quantity of water actually raised by any machine seldom
exceeis half the power consumed, after overcoming friction and
leakage ; and notwithstanding the best engineers in the world had
trird in vain for two thousand years to abate these palpable defects
in hydraulic machines, nevertheless, at last the victory is won, and
won for ever ; for friction and leakage are now both annihilated by
the new rolling principle in pumps, and their effect augmented from
twelve to twenty (or about seventy per cent.), and frequently with-
out more outlay.

Most men can sustain heavy ranid pun)) trials for 40 seconds, but
some men drop at minute time. With a be, new heavy working Fric-
tion Pump an active soond-winded young win or 140 Fps. weig, t can
raise 10,000 lbs. of carter o)e .oet high i r. minute. and with a COUTI•
tain Pump 9,000 lbs. in half a minute. Thus a continual and most
extraordinary lucrative advantage Is gained over r ..rp3tual and uni-
versal ignorance, clearly proving that Knowledge Power.
John Clentou Roberts, Esc, in his popular worts', No. 1,110, did
well in placing Gosset's French 1 ump Abortion (['sat saps the water
upward) shie by side with the Fountain Pomp, which upset a good
deal of Folly. Because Mr. Mallet t, Dublin, a thorough-bird pump-
maker, Mr. Baddiey, London, an everlasting pump-writer, and Mr.
Ewbank, America, an ignorant pump book-maker, asserted that the
two pumps were Identical. Bet the Yankee out-fooled John Bull
and Paddy in No. 1.183, and in No. 496, Zook-maker Millington's
remarks are preposterous. However, en the other hand, Dr. Birk-
beck, Aberdour, Hay, Parkington, with many other discerning men,
after witnessing the perfect eEeet and the beautiful simplicity of the
rolling principle, gave the inveation the following true and austlen.
able character:—The Fountain Funr) is the most irnnortant improve-
ment in the art of raising water that has anpeared within the last two
thousand years—the greatest advancement in the useful arts in
modern times. . _

The Consummation Fountain Pumps are successfully carried out
for private and public uses, at lifts below and above 100 feet altitude,
for man, horse, and steam power; delivering from half a pint per
stroke to 100 barrels of water per minute, and rendering every fair
trial at competition ridiculous, whilst their durability is guaranteed
at less cost than common pumps. . _

BOARDING-SCHOOL VACATIONS.
A b'ATII ER'S LETTER TO lIIS SON.
Dear Boy,—As the Christmas vacation is nigh,
I write you, in hopes of a speedy reply;
I hear you have greatly Improved at your school,
And have never once slighted authority's rule.
So I'm auxiou: to ace you—more anxious than ever,
And I meats to reward you for such an endeavour.
Your Mama and myself, to encourage your merit,
Have purchased yea that which you'll proudly inherit :
We have bought you a desk, and a scrap •book, and all,
And a rocking-horse, too, and a bat, trap, and ball ;
And we also present you, for what you have done,
A handsome new suit from E. MOSES P'lci SOS.
This suit is designed en the very best p in.
And I'm sure you'll appear quite a smart little mart.
Yeu can scarcely isnagine what taste is displayed,
In the juvenile garments which MOSES' have made ;
Fur what with the cloth, and the tut, and the braid,
I consider they honour the tailoring trade.
The strictest attention to fa.,ltion is paid,
And rivalry, truly, is cast in the shade.
I certainly think every rank, every grade,
Should countenance MOSES and SOS with their ald,
In the purchase of dress, which if rightly surveyed,
Is exactly the style for a smart little blade.
