ieetfy tina. have this day experimental trial ofa
co.. at Waterford, Saratoga CO. New York, with Of
the best engines belonging to- the corporation of tho city
yard and sin the experiment, am persuaded that The
engine OF Rogers Patent will throw more water and at
greater DISTANCES with the application of less power,

hibed in this city which could compete with the New
York engines, which should answer purpose IL.

ton Of Rogers Patent is exccen ly simple, aud
no reason why it should rot go into general use. Be-
