THE NEw York ELEcrIoN.-The New
York State election comes off next Tuesday,
for State officers and metubers of the legisla-
ture. The field has been warmly contested
between the parties. They both, in their con-
venions at Syracuse, agreed to disagree on
the slavery question. and unite for the sake of
the spoils which will accrue to the successful
party, in the disbursement of some nine mil
lions Of dollars for the enlargement of the Erie
and the other State canals
For all Union or compromise purposes, this
election is dead letter. The Wings at SYRIA

CosyERrEp INTO SN"w-That ice can he

iliary for the purpose will seen hardly credible
to any body, and that steam itself NAV be con
verted into snow by the aid of steam, is a phe-
non,enon of which but very few have heard.
Yet these are facts, and are now daily demon
strat-d ut the Great Exhibition. in the refresh.
ment room, adjnini,,ing the department OF ma
chinery in motion. Mr.. Thomas Masters, Of
the Royal Polytechnic Institution, Regent street,
the inventor Of various ingenious machines for
freezing, has adopted one of them f"r being put
in motion by steam power, and which Is now
in operation daily in the western refreshment
room. This apparatus is capable of freezing
upwards Of 100 quarts dessert ices (sixty differ
eat sorts are produced in the one machine) eve
ry fifteen or sixteen minutes. An Unlimited
supply can thus be obtained, and of Il perfectly
smooth quality The economy Of time, labor,
and expense thus ensured must be immense
A more perfect and simp pie contrivanre for pro
ducing perenni supply of these deracies,
in a crowded place like the Exhibition, could
not b. conc, ived. and tn" Invention is undnutt
edly one of the most ingenious novelties in the
section devoted to the machinery in motion.
The machines, hn @ever, are not limited t"
making desscr; ices; they are made to produce
cylinders of solid ice sufficiently large enough
to hold decanters Of water and many bottles of
wine. These cylinders are made in the form
of cas,ellated towers, and have a very novel
appearances; they not only cool the wine aud
water placed in the centre hut difuse Il most
agreeable conlness through the atmosphere.
The converting steam or vapor int" snow is ef
fected Iy forcing it through the machine, and in
this way whole room may be easily cooled
down in the hottest ofweaher. These are very
singular effects. They are, however easily to
be understood on an examination of some ofrhe
patenteps smaller machines, of which there are
several exhibited in class 81; and which are
calculated for use in small family or bachel-
or's chambers. The cost of turning pure water
into ice for sherry-cobblers, cooling wine, and
other purposes, is less than it can be purchased
for ut the ice stores. The machines are well
worthy of attention fthe curious and scientific.
