In branch Of mechanical art has there
bseH more appafeut advance than in tue
utacture OF stoves. lt IS but a few years since
the very name was novelty, representing
hinge, shapeless structure, almost devoid of
use as ornament, These have gradually given place
patterns Of grace and utility until the varieties
our markets now present have almost exhausted
the vocabulary OF names; aud the different phases
tho metal made to assume, would astonish Old
Vulcan himself In style and finish, the improve
ment has been cal, leaving nothing to DO desired
on that point but the severe competition in price,
which they have been subjected, has deprived
them of many of the more substantial qualities
desirable. This more especially to have been
the case in reference to cook stovesan article of
domestic economy that has more to do with scoldin
wives and crotcheiy servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have long sought an improve
in this article and We believe ready to pay
any reasonable price for cooking stove if it only
possesses the merits of size, weight, convenience
durability economy, and perfection of Manufacture
These qualities to be possessed most fully in
the Econ ,mist-a new stove, perfected and brought
out the past season, by Messrs. Trea,lweIl, Perry
4 Nortol of Albany We heard so much of this
stove, and il looked much like IA stove intended
for use, that concluded to try them, and the
result of the experiment cOnVinces us that the
propriesrs, in their determination to make the best
store the lcOrId, have succeeded We regard the
Economist possessing ali the merits above
merated-as the great stove oI the day-far in adj
vance of anything ever attempted in the line of
stoves perfect in all its appointments, and true to
its name in durability and the of fuel. An.ong

stove have been conducting series of experiments
upon broiIing, elciting valuable facts, and
