/ Hall 4 Carroll. On opening these second
doors, we find, deep witt t'in the inmost recess
Of the vault, a little chamter, designed TO re-
ceive the very precious things Of the owner,
and defended BY another pail Of steel-plate
doors, secured by the latest triumph of
mechanism in this line. Halls Improvement
on the famous Pond-IOek.
What will be thought of lock positively
without key or keyhole, having no conf
munication with the outside of the door, and
operated by an ordinary knob and simple
wrench, capable of some 10000 900 combina-
tions; the bolts being shot to either one Of
which, it can only be opened by the one
who closed it, or according to his directions.
The very maker Of the lock, even with the
key, or rather wrench, in his possession,
having no more chance of opening il when
locked by another person, than the merest
stranger. Yet such lock NAV be seen in
operation on this safe, and the gentleman in
charge of it is always ready to show and ex-
plain its operation to any who desire. We
would strongly recommend every person
visiting the Fair, who has any taste for
mechanical ingenuity, to examine this Curl
GUS lock.
WHITES PATENT THIEF-DETEcTNa MONEY
DRAWER.
We fear that we may injure the prospects
and fine sensibilities of the light-fingered
gentry by describing this apparatus which
deliberately proposes to interfere with their
profession. This is a money-drawer with a
combination lock and an alarm. The drawer
locks and adjusts ITSELF as it shuts, and then
no one but the person that locked it can
open it without striking the alarm-not even
the patentee himself. The exhibitor shuts
it before your eyes, and bids you unlock it if
you can. You make the attempt and the
alarm rings, and you may continue to work
at it with the same result, but you can not
open the drawer. The owner opens it in an
instant before your eyes, but still you can
not do it without instructions. 1t requires
no winding up is conveniently arranged
with sliding halfgobe cups for change, and
to a retailer would seem to be much greater
safe guard than his iron safe.
The thief-detecting money-drawer is ex-
hibited in Domestic Hall, by Mr. A. O, Miles,
the General Agent, of Nashua, N. H., of
whom rights can be had.
PIANOS, 40.
Britting 4 Brother, the well-known mu-
steal instrument dealers, on Fifth-street
have fine show of pianos and melodeons in
Domestic Hall. Among them we noticed
two very pretty six-octave melodeons, and
and a couple of square, grand pianos, one
of Cincinnati manufacture, and the other
made by Stech & Grupe, of New York; the
latter is one of the finest-toned instruments
| we ever heard, and attracted deserved at
tention. They have also on exhibition some
piano-cases, showing their internal con-
struction, and case of keys pedals, &C.,
which are fine specimens of workmanship.
SUGAR EvAPoRAToR.
Simmons & Co., of Hillsboro, Illinois, have
on exhibition one of their sugar evaporators
for making sorghum and maple sugar, which
we shall notice more at length at another
time.
