MILLER's STEAM BRAKE.-A steam car
brake, designed to supersede the one now op-
Grated by hand on our railroads, has been in
vented BIZ Henry Miller, Esq, of Detroit, and
it appears to be very decided improvement.
1t was tried upon the Pontiac Railroad lest fall
and since that time has been put to some pretty
severe tests upon the Michigan Central Ra lie
road. On the 7th inst. it was applied to train
of FIVE cars, viz: one baggage, one second class
and three passenger cars, drawn BY lOcOmo-
tive weighing twenty eight tons, with six feet
two inch drivers-whole weight Of train lo4
tous-and brakes were applied to twenty pairs
of wheels, under the cars only. The result
was as follows on the FIRST trial, with the train
moving at the velocity of thirty miles per hour,
the train was brought to perfect stop in sew
en- hundred feet, taking twenty seconds OF time
On the second trial, with train moving forty
miles per hour, it was brought to stand-still
in nine hundred and forty-6ve feet, and tWen-
tv. six seconds of time. On the third trial the
train was backed down two miles, anu coming
nm ran the last mile in one minute and twenty
five seconds. 1t wac brought to full stop ii
one thousand and six feet, taking twenty .eigh
seconds of time, the train not running owe
three miles per hour for the last three hundred
feet. The invention, if what it seems to be, i
