STEAM VESSELS.
THE GRAND DESIDERATUM OBTAINED.
THE many and great disadvantages which all
Steam Vessels experience front their Propelling Machinery
occupying nearly as much room in width as the Vessel itself. is
DOW done away by Mr. JonArnow DICKSON' Et Eimer, of Hol-
land-street. Blackfriars-road, who has lately been rewarded by
the Society of Arts for his Method of uniting the Power of the
Steam to the Wind on board of those Vessek, and who will new
undertake to Navigate any Vessel within its own width and depth
in the Water, whether at Sea or In inland River.. But his In.
venrion will be conspicuously advaneageous lu all narrow and
shoal Rivers, and in those crowded with Shipping. In the con-
' struction of Canals, the expense of Towing paths may be saved;
and those now In use may be done away, to the no small satis-
faction of the Land-Ownera, through whose lands they pats.
