As We have made extensive improvements In
the Phoenix Foundry, 0ately purchas-
ed by u5,) and are constantly adding new and
improved patterns Of various styles TO our stock,
we find it necessary, principally, as many stoyc
dealers live so remote from us, that they but sell
dom visit this market lose sales Of many articles
Of our manufacture that they could deal In to
their advantage, did they but know the quality
and style Of our work.
During the past year, Cincinnati and other
manufacturers have considered it best to produce
q very inferior article in order to meet the
present low prices o. stoves, they lsing the
cheapest materials without regard to its du-
| rabilltY, usefulness, or appearance. Whilst we
use the Yeiy best selected Pig Metal, Manufac.
tured from pure Limestone Ore
| We assure dealers and the public, that no
pains will be spared to introduce Improvements
in principle and design of our stoves, that their
wants may require, as we warrant all our
work. And it is even 50, that our
TROPlC COAL STOVE,
Two si2cs,) is far superior to the much vaun
ted Diamond Cooking Stoyc--using at least
half less fuel, and cooking better in every par
ticuiar. Also, our new and beautiful Wood
Cooking Stove,
THE GOLDEN AGE,
Far superior to any thing of the kind in this
market. We have other Stoves of various ST.
zes and patterns, and manufactured ofthe best
material, as all our stoves are, and hope they
will consider well the advantages of selling a
good article in preference to poor one: and re.
lying US we do On the superiority Of our stoves
over the majority of those now in market, tiatter
ourselves that, will they but examine particular.
| ly into the general character Of stoves now maJl
and consult their interest, ours will DO preferred
TO the majority now in this market.

Report of the Conipaiffee appointed 10
superintend the, burning Of the IRON
Safes at Reading, Feb. 9Th, 1857.
REaDINa, March 4Ih.
The undersigned, members of the Commit
tee do respectfully report, thai we saw the
two Safes originally agreed rpon BY Farrels
& Herring aud Evans & Watson, placed side
by side in furnace, viz: The Sale in use BY
the Psymasier OF the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railroad Company, in bis office a. Read.
ing, manufactured BY Farrels & Herring, and
the Safe in use by H. A. Lantz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put
in books and papers precisely alike.
The fire was started at Sd o'clock, A. M,
and kept up until four cords of green hickory,
two cords dry oak and half chestnut top wood
were entirely consumed, the whole under
the superiniendence of the subscribers, MEM
be:s OF the Committee. The Safes were then
cooled off with water, after which they were
opened, agd the books and papers taken out
by the Committee and sent TO H. A. Lanlz's
store for public examination, after they were
first examined and marked by the Commit
tee. The books and papers taken from the
Safe manufactured by Evans & Watson were
but slightly Affected by the intense heat,
while those taken from the Safe manufac-
iured by Farrels & Herring were, in our iudg.
men,, damaged fully fifteen per cent. more
than those taken from Evans & Watson's
Sale.
