Edition, with large Additions.
" Ilowitt's History of Priestcratt has long passed the bourne of cri-

not well be rated too highly, and we look upon it as ose of the great
agents in enabling the people to resist the efforts of the traitor priests

RAISING WATER discovered by the FOUN-
TAIN PUMPS, which roll tkc water upward+, without
either friction or faltering, therefore can never be surpassed ; comae-
gaeatly thie is the most important discovery ever made for the pre-
servatioa elite and property either at Sea or on Laid.

AT SEA
numerous ships it las already saved, and the captains gratefully ac-
knowledge the glorious results. Two testimonial extracts shall
suite :

" Captam Greig, hem Quebec to London, states that the Fountain
Pump being fitted in the Caroline, its great power was the Means •f
saving the ship and 230 souls •n board, two seams in the bottom
being partly left witk cut calking."
" The Argos brig, front Cadiz, sprung a leak when three days oat
at sea, and soon after her common pump ch•akcl and became use-
less. Captain Itnttparford states all then depended upon her F•aa-
tain Pump, which for nineteen days and eighteen nights was is ac-
tion without a minute's respite, ►hen all arrived safely Is Lend•*,
with a thank God for the Fountain Pump."

. ON LAND
the New Portable Fire-engines are of infinitely better service than a
Ire brigade. They act instantaneously at the outbreak of a fire.
" We are delighted with the inventlea—it is a great boo' t• ao-
eiety.”—Palitors Liverpool Mail.
The New Pertab'e Fire-engines have preserved a largo !eft!** of
Norwich from destruction, fur out of eighteen different properties en
Are In and near the city, they saved eleven solely and seven mainly,
including in the seven the Queen's Cavalry Barracks ; and In the
eleven, Messrs. Hermes tlyery, and 12,0101. worth of consigned pro-
perty ; Stake mustard, starch, and flour mills, and Messrs. Butcher's
grocery warehouses, jest la time to prevent a large quantity of gun-
powder therein from exploding, which must have spread around de-
struction and death.
" North Waisham.—At this Are the Portable Engine was of groat
service, and by having ono of them ready, there is no doubt but half
the property now destroyed might have been sayeil."—Norfulk Chro-
nicle, .august 22, 1846.
At a Norwich fire Juno 2, 1847, the two Portable Engines were
the pets of the public. The cry was, feel the little engines and they
will do the work, which proved true. The four large engines present
proved nseleas.
Portable Engines speedily prove steam-bellers to a dozen atmo-
spheres. -• •
Now the fact is this, all former Force Pumps, Lift-force Tamps,
Lift ramps, andCkain Pumps arc bad machines: they rub, grub, and
scrape the water upwards by friction, which wastes two-fifths of the
power used, and progressively falter by leakage, which Drs. Young
and Hatton, with many other eminent experimenters, lamented
thus : The. quantity of water actually raised by any machine seldom
excee.'s half the power condensed, after overcoming friction and
leakage ; and notwithstanding the best engineers in the world had
tried 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 pump's, and their effect augmented front
twelve to twenty (or about seventy per cent.), and frequently with-
out more outlay.
Most teem Can sustain heavy rapid pump trials for 46 seconds, but
some teen drop at minute time. With a best new heavy working Fric-
tie' ramp an ae:ive sound-winded young man of 110 lbs. weight can
raise 19,000 lbs. of water one foot high in a minute, and with a Foun-
tain Ptunp 9,1100 lbs. In half a minute. Thus a ceutinual and most
extraordinary lucrative advantage to gained ever perpetual and uni-
versal ignorance, clearly proving that Knowledge is Power.
John Clentoa Roberts, Eei., in his polestar work, No. I,lli, did
well in placing flosset's French Pump Abortion (that slaps the water
upward) side toy side with the Fountain Pump, which upset a good
deal of Folly. Because Mr. !Mullett, Dublin, a thorough-bred pump-
maker, Mr. 'Saddle'', ',widen, an everlasting pump-writer, end Mr.
Ewhank, America, an ipterant pump book-maker, asserted that the
two pumps were identical. But the Yankee out-fooled John Bull
and Paddy In No. 1,153, and in No. 496, stook-maker Millington's
remarks are preposterous. However, on the ether bond, Dr. Birk-
beck, lberdettr, 11a3-, Parkington, with many ether discerning men,
after witnessing the perfect effect and the beautiful simplicity if the
rolling principle, gave the inveation the following true and sustsVn-
able chafracter:—The Fountain rump is the most important improve-
ment in the art of raising water that has appeared within the last two
thousand years—the greatest advancement in the useful arts in
modern times.
The Consummation Fountain Pumps are snecessftilly carried oat
for private and public uses, at lifts below and above 110 feet altitude,
fir mats, 'terse, and sttain power; delivering from half a pint per
stroke to 106 barrels if water per minute, All,l rendering every fair
trial at competition ridiculous, whilst their durability is guaranteed
at less cost than common pump*.

The object of this Association is totally to abolish the use of
climbing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those
employing them are subjected by the Sd and 4th Victoria, cap. 85,
aro continually resorted to. This breach of the law is acquiesced ii
by a large portion of the public, horn a conviction of the ntter im-
possibility in innumerable cease of cleansing a chimney or flue with
the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects
of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the Inge-
nious and effective Itamenour machine has been invented. This
Invention consists of four brushes forming a square head, which
by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, accor diug to
the small or extended space ia which the machine moves, thereby
treating an even pressure on all four sides of a chimney. The
rods attached to this head er brash are supplied at intervals with
universal spring joists, capable of turning even a right angle
and the whole is surmouted with a doable revering all, having
also a universal spring joinnt, which leads the brush with certainty
past every angle, and lite every corner, cleanstng its rotate most
perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are best demeastrated
by the fact, that it is exclusively used el the Government and
numerous public offices, while the patronage beetowei by a large
number of the nobility and gantry ii continuing their anneal can-
tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well
as of the philanthropic views of the projectors. Detailed prospectuses
ratty be obtained, aid a working model of the machine seen, at the
offices of the solicitor, F, Dolman, Esq., 30, Jermyn-street, It.
