The Great IEyenlion Of the Age!-Steam Sup
planted Gas Triumphant!

rI>HE first half Of the nineteenth century will he
IL recorded as the age Steam. IL has passed
and with il will pass the steam engine with the
things that were.
The second half of w century will be known
as commencing the age Of Gas-an agent destined
not only TO iigh but TO EsLieHrEs the world.
This age has now commenced, and with il is now
introduced the Gas Engine.
Professor John G. +. Solomon, after twenty six
years or close observation upon the experiments
Of his own and Of others in attempts 10 make the
principle Of the condensation Of carbonic acid gas
available as mechanic motor, has perfected the
same and having Just received letters patent for his
"lmprovvd Car6onic Acid Engine, now offers 10
dispose OF rights for the use thereof TO the u.
States government, 'and to individuals or 10 COM
panies, the rights Of States, counties, or cities.
The immense saving OF money AID labor, and
Of human lives and suffering, secured by the use
Of this new motor, will inevitably insure rs speedy
adoption in all places where steam power Is now
used, and in thousands OF other places where the
great expense, bulk, and weight Of the steam en-
gine has precluded its use.
This new motor may be applied TO all purposes
as propeing agent, rom the single-horse power
for the cotion-gin 70 the two thousand horse power
for ocean steamers, with the expense less than that
required by the steam engine, Of boilers and fur
naces, fuel and fremen, and Of bulk and weight
100 tons weight suficing for the same power Of
,yUO IONS OF the steanWngiDe.
These facts are established by the experimental
engine Of twenty-five (25) horse power, now
"working well" at Cincinnati, as noticed in the
following from the Cincinnati Nonpsrei OF the
18th instant
eve are pleased to state that J. c. +. Solomon,
late Of this city, has received patent for hsmUpr
Ct carbonic acid gas, in its application to engine.
The successful experiments Of this invention were
not long since given in the Ncnpareil. The same
gentleman has received another patent for the steer
ing and propeing power"
Also, rights for the use Of his "lmproved Pro-
polling aud Steering Apparatus" one peculiar adj
vantage Of which gives the pilot such complete con-
troll ofthe vessel independent Of the engineer that
he rght-aboui-fac man-of-war in less time
than is required to load her guns.
Also, rights for his "lmproved Spring Saddle, :"
for military and common purposes, designed for
the greatest possible comfort Of both horse and
rider
