FsSllE first hal. of the nineteenth century will be
Il recorded the age Of steam II has passed
and with it will pnss the steam engine with the
things that were.
| commencing the age OF Gasan agent destined not
only To light bu, To ssLiGaTKN the world. This
age has now commenced, and with it is now intro.
duced the Gas Engine.
Professor John e. +. Solomon, after twenty 81 x
years OF close observation upon the experiments OF
his and Of others in attempts to make the prin-
ciple Of the condensation of carbonc acid gas avail
able as mechanic motor has perfected the same;
and, having just received letters patent for his
"Improved Carbonc Acid Engine" now offers to
dispose of rights for the thereof to the United
States Government, and TO individuals or to COM
panies. the rights of States. counties, or cities.
The immense saving OF money and labor, and OF
human lives and suffering, secured by the use of
this motor, will inevitably insure its speedy
adoption in all places where steam power is now
used, aud in thousands OF other places where the
great expense, bulk, and weight Of the steam en-
CINE has precluded its use
This new motor may be applied to all purposes
as propeling agent, from the single-horse power
for the cotton gin to 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 sutiicing for the same power Of
l 900 tons OF the steam engine.
These facts established by the experiment Ia
engine OF twenty five (25) horse power, now
'.working WE'LL at Cincinnati rs noticed in the
