but two premiums offered for cooking -tovesune for

COOKING stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR THE BEST COOKING STOVE
FOk WOOD Rocker, Klusnlan A 20 took tho first

premiums were offered. The large silver medal was
awarded 10 the Economist the New York State
Fair and the first premium AT the United States

In no branch of mechanical art has there
been IA more aplsGrent advance than in tnr
uiacture ct stoves. II is but few years since
the very name novelty, representing II
huge, shapelcss structure, almost us devoid of
Use ~ ornament, These have gradually given plnce
to patterns "t grace aud utility until the varieties
our markets now present have almost exhausted
the vocabulary oil names; and the different phases
the metal is made To assume, would astuui4h old
Vulcan himself. In style and finish, the improve
ment has been real, leaving nothing be desired
that point, but the competition in price,
10 which they have been subjected, has deprived
them of many of the more substantial qualities
desirable. This seems more especially to have been
me ot'9e III tei'ioht 10 Co"N e--ah ltliCe Oh
domestic economy that has more to do with scoldug
wives and crotcheIy servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have long sought an improve
in this article, and believe ready 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 Ice POSSESSED most fully in
the EcunuInst-a new stove perfected and brought
& Norton, of Albany. We heard so much of this
stove and it looked much like u stove intended
for use, that we concluded to try them, and the
result Of the experiment cOuvinces that the
proirctuTs in their determination to make the best
stare IN tie icortd, have succeeded. We regard the
Economist possessing all the merits above emu
nterated-as the great stove of the day'-fr in adj
vance of anything ever attempted in the line OF
stoves, perfect i'll all its appointments, and true
its name in durability and the of fuel Among
the many ConvenienCes attached it, may be mon
toned large oven, with hooks arranged, for sus-
pending meats while roasting A copper water
tank, holding from II to - galIOns-warIning
closet, brOing hearth, dc, &c. The brong
hearth Is oueOf the most noticeable features of this
remarkable stove. There has been, to our
knowledge, auy broiling Xture that really
islctory in its operation. The proprietUrs of this
stove have been conducting IL series of experiments
upon brOiling, eciti.s some valuable facts, and
shifting in the invention vi gridiron adapted to
this stove, which has been secured by letters patent,
and Is of the admirable things the kind
we ever s;tw-broilng without smoke, and Keeping
the Goals in "A constant glow. We always glad
to do justice to mechanical inn rOVcncnts and cs-
pecially such contribute largely The general
good, rs the one above mrhtiuned.
