been exhibited. At the South Western Indian;
District Fair, held here October, 1859, there wert
but two premiums offered for cooking stoves-one 70
the best wood cooking stove one for the best
cooking stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR THE BEST LOOKING STOW
FOR WOOD. Rocker, Klusman q Co took the frs
premium for their cooking stove for coal. No uthe
premiums offered. The large silver medal wa
awarded to the Economist at the New York Stat,
Fair and the first premium at the United State
Fair held at Chicago. and twelve other State

In no branch of mechanical art has Their
been more apparent advance than in the
utacture of stoves Ii is but a few years sine
the very name a novelty, representing
huge, shapeless structure, almost devoid
ornament, These have gradually given plac
to patterns Of grace aud utility until the varietie
our markets now present have almost exhauste
the vocabulary of names; and the different phase
the metal is made to assume, would astOnish oil
Vulcan himself. In style and finish, the improve
has been real, leaving nothing to be desire,
that point, but the severe competition in price
to which they have been subjected, has deprive
them of many of the more substantial qualitie
desirable. This seems more especially to have bee
the case in reference TO cook stoves-an article {
domestic economy that has more to do with scoidin
wives and crotcheiy servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have long sought improve
in this article and we believe arc ready to pa
any reasonable price for cooking stove, if it onI
possesses the merits of size, weight, convenience
durability, economy, and perfection of manufacture
These qualities seem TO be possessed most fully j
the ECOnY mlsI-fl new stove, perfected and DrOugh
out the past season, by Messrs. Treadwell, PER-
& Norton, of Albany. We heard so much of thi
stove, and it looked 50 much like stove intende
for use, that we concluded to try them, and III
result of the experiment convinces that tn
proUrIetsrs, in their determination to make the be
store ia the UorId, have succeeded. We regard th
Economist possessing all the merits above enu
merated-as the great stove of the day-far in al
of anything ever attempted in the line
stoves, perfect in all its appointments, and
its name in durability and the use of fuel. Anon

closet, brOing hearth, dc, &C. The broilin
hearth is of the most noticeable features of tn
remarkable stove. There never has been, to on
knowledge, any broiling fixture that was really sa
isfactory in its operation. The prOprietors of th
stove have been conducting series of experiment
upon broIing, eliciting valuable facts and RI

this stove, which has been secured by letters paten
and is of the most admirable things of the kin
ever saw-broiling without smoke, and keepin
the Goals in a constant glow. We are always rla
to do justice to mechanical inn rovemeHts, and e,
pecially such contribute largely the generi
good, as the one above mentioned.
