ESPY's VENTILA'TOR.

Whether Mr.. Espy has found out the laws
which regulate storms on great scale, or not, he
has hit upon little matter by which we think
he will make the laws Of the wind on email
scale serve the public and fill his pockets. 1t is
that thing 50 long sought in vain, remedy for
smokey chimneys, and general ventilator. 1t
consists OF nothing but metallic Cone placed
on the top of the huc horizontally with a vane to
keep the point Of the cone to the breeze. The
direction which the wind gets by passing over
the cone, produces vacuum at the large end
which is the outlet, and so creates draft. The
effect is altogether surprising. Some places
which were odious with foul air have been rem
dered perfectly sweet by this single apparatus,
and chimneys which were given over by all dec
tors as incurable have been brought to regular
action.-N. ]. Jour. Com.

1t is an undeniable fact, that the very same thing
which makes the fire burn, makes metals rust,
forms acids, and enables plants and animals to
breathe that these operations, so unlike to COM
