thterboon Mr. GURNEY'S steam carriage was exhibited, at
Drequest of the Duke of WELLINGTON, in the Hounslow
rIelE-yard, before his Grace, the Ladies PERCY,
itn-14eat and MURRAY ; Lords FITZROY SOMERSET,
6.BBLYN) and TIIOMAS CECIL ; Lieut.-General Sir W.
k:,111)°N, Quarter-Muter-General, Sir GEORGE MUR-
CriAnr.Es DANCE, and a large number of mili-
;_7 and scientific gentlemen. his Grace, Sir W. Goa-
' .1724, the Ladies PERCY, &c., had a carriage attached, and
frletai round the yard with the greatest .pleasure and satis-
clu.:°. Afterwards a waggon was fastened t,o the steam-
t4, age, containing 27 soldiers, besides Mr. CTURNEY and
,tra or three men on the engine, and though the road was
itir disadvantageous, being a rough loose sand and gravel,
th_ew them round without the least diminution of its
1,7,4 between nine and ten miles an hour. In these ex.
Illeins Mr. GURNEY applied his steam generally but to
Do ‘rilesl, in order to give the company full proof of the
fled and practicability of the invention. Having satis-
tiet„ther as to this, and as to its manageability, by a va-
, cii4/ af involutions and evolutions, he gave them a spe-
ateti °f its speed, and drove seven or eight times round
skc'a rate of 16 to 17 miles an hour. It is difficult to
itt'thWheun ther the company was more pleased
EY or surprised
tae equivocal proofs of Mr. GURN'S SUCCS.-.-.
iklbuke of WELLINGTON observed that it was scarcely
11tr,./51e-to calculate the benefits we should derive from the
-^l4ctiou of such au iuYeution as this.
