4 THE ERIAI LOCOMOTIVE STARTED.
The New York Tribune gives the FOL
lowing nccoun, Of the experiments with
this machine, Oh Tuesday:
I An exhibition of tho model Of Potter
and Rohlnhn's nflal locomotive was made
yesterday afternoon in the Exchange, and
was perfectly successful. The float, or
spindle shaped balloon, made Of gold. beat
CTS skin, was ahou, ten feet long, to which
was suspended steam engine in NINA,
ture, welghinC--ife, water, and oil com.
ple,c--aboui three or four pounds. Not.
wiihsiandlng its di,nnuilve SIC, the engine
turned tho l,gh, paddle. wheels of the ma.
chine with ease, and kept in motion as long
as the wafer lasted. Tho rudJrr was set
10 fly the bslloon in circle. |, went up
steadily, propelled by til, engine, in re.
aular gytaIlon 10 the roof--naking two
fall circles on Its way. Here, n weight
having been attached, it descended IN a
spiral, following the set Of the ruddcr, and
and landed safely. This experiment was
repeated second time with a Ike result,
aud so far rs living IN a quiet atmosphere
goes, the locomotive may be considered
fully successful. IL remains to be seen
whether large machine, similarly con.
structed, would safely resist the violent
commol'ons OF the open air. There was
large number Of persons prcscu, ycs,er.
day, who testified, by hearty applause,
their opinion Of the exhibition.
