GAMBLING AT MALTA.—Some very awkward denoue-
ment, leading to rather serious consequences, has hap-
pened at Malta, in coanexion with gambling transac-

taken measures to put an end to such discreditable prac-
tices.

STEA]II CARRIAGES on PUBLIC ROADS.
A very ingenious steam locomotive for the conveyance
of passenger and goods' traffic over common roads has been
lately patented by our fellow-citizens, Messrs. Clark and
Motley. The chief peculiarities of the invention will b,
gleaned from the subjoined description, which has been
handed to us by the patentees. The entire machine is
intended to consist of an engine of from six to ten hors'
power, to which is attached an omnibus or long-bodied
carriage, capable of accommodating forty persons and a
certain quantity of luggage. With this load the patentees
assert the capability of their invention to attain an ave-
rage speed of ten miles per hour on ordinary roads, and
the power of ascending inclines of one in six or eight.
A speed of sixteen miles an hour might be checked and
the engine brought to a stand-still in the space of sixteen
feet—an important consideration where there is any dan-
ger of a collision. Tne engine comprises-Ist. An appara-
tus for steering with certaintly and facility at any required
speed, on any kind of road. 21. Suspension et rte
machinery in such a manner that all jolts or concussions
arising from bad roads shall not ho injuriously commu-
nicated to the machinery, so that wear and tear will be
considerably reduced. 3d. The power to be increased
or decreased according to the state of the roads, or th,-
resistance to be overcome. 4th. A bailer of the strong-
est mechanical form with the least possible weight o'
material. Also a means of preventing priming, or th,
water boiling over into the cylinders of the engine, and
likewise a means_ of insuring the perfect contact of the
water with the heating surfaces of the boiler under all
circumstances. It is cheap in first cost, durable in wear
and easily repaired when out of order, and will occupy
but a smill space for a given power. sth. The MO3.
economical application of the steam power, by keeping
the cylinders hotter than the steam employed therein.
by which all condensation of the steam during its expan-
sion is prevented, and to work the steam at such a
pressure that the greatest effect nay be produced by
being worked expansively. 6th. To apply the power
equally to the two driving wheels under all circumstances
of passing curves, &c. 7th. The carriage frame to be
made of sheet iron, rivetted together in such a manner,
that the water tanks, &c., may be formed of the same,
so that it will be strong and of light weight. Tho im-
provements in the passenger carriage or omnibus—let.
To be 12 inches wider than the common omnibus, that
passengers may go in or out without discommoding those
sitting down. 2nd. To have a door on each aide that
passengers may be taken up or set down from the pave-
ment. 3rd. To have the carriage heated by the exhaust
steam in cold weather. 4th. To divide the passengers
into two or more classes. A model of the engine has
