had occasion to prepare furnace for this particular fuel II
worked than had expected and well enough 10 satisfy

allow the fuel dried fall freely into the lower
chamber wanting to perfect it, Mr. Thompson
prepared to changes when the suspension OF the
mines during panic of September 1851 pnt an end
The result obtained however, satisfied me TINT
Mr. Thompsons capable of burning wet Peht Just
as was dug with at least three parts in four Its weight
water This watery fuel suced in Mr. Thompsons furnace
not only steam twenty-five horse power steam
boiler day but did with material economy oil
fuel and expense compared with anthracite coal or WOOL IN

have elsewhere given my views in detail respecting the
mode Of of Mr. Thon psons furnace need not repeat
these views here Suffice say that fully OF opinion
that Mr. discovery OF great practical

growing countries the economical use OF oage
ma Ways been of difficulty. Moreover while
Of experiments and almost literal copies
