~ first premiums at every Fair where it has
been exhibited. At the South Western Indiana
District Fair, held here October 1859, there were
but two premiums offered for okng stoVes-one for
the best wood cooking stoVeand for the best coal
cooking stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR THE BEST LOOKING STOVE
FOR WOOD. Rocker, X lusman Il Go took the first
premium for their cooking stove for coal. No other
premiums We're offered. The large silver medal was
awarded to the Economist at the New York State
Falr ana Inc hrst premium at the United States
Fair held AT chtcsas~. and Twelve other State and
County Fairs in 1853. -s ... .rf f.4tfa.
ID In branch OF mechanical art has there
been more apparent advance than ia the

the very name was Il novelty, representing "A

on that point, but the competition in price,
to which they have been subjected has deprived
them OF many OF the more substantial qualities
desirable. This seems more especially to have been
tile in reference to cook stoves-an article of
domestic economy that has more to do with scolding
wives and crotcheIy servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have long sought an improve
ment in this article, and 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 seem to be possessed fully in
the Econ mlst--A new stove, perfected and brought
out the past season, by Messrs. TrealweIl, Perry
~ Norton, of Albany. We heard SO much of this
sts've, and it looked much like = intended
for rise, that concluded to try them, and the
result of tho experiment convinces that the
proprietars, in their determination to make the best
store ia he grOTid, have succeeded. We regard the
Economist possessing all the merits above emit
merated--as the great stove or the day-far ia adj
vance of anything attempted in the line of
stoves, perfect in all its appointments, and true to
its name i'll durability and the use of fuel Among
the many conveniences attached to 1t, may be men
toned large oven, with hooks arranged, for
pending meats while roasting. copper water
tank, holding from IL to 25 gallons-warming
closet, broling hearth, DC, &c. The broling
hearth is of the most noticeable features of this
remarkable stove There has been,
knowledge, any brOiling xture that really
isactory i'll its operation. Tho proprieors OF this
stove have been conducting series of experiments
upon brOiling, eliciting valuable facts, and
sulting in the invention of gridiron adapted to
this stove, which has been secured by letters patent
and is of the most admirable things of the kind
saw-broiling without smoke, and keeping
the Goals in a constant glow. We are always glad
to do Justice to mechanical improvements, and
pecaliy such contribute largely to the general
good, the above mentioned.

sale, will be found only at SCANTLIN q STE
