Steam Wagon for Western Prairies.

A novel steam engine, built by John
A. Reed Of New York, has been sent west
by Gen. J. II. Brown of Mimi, to be
used in the transportation Of freight from
Omaha to Denver City, in Kansas. II
is propelled by four engines of ten horse
power EACH The driving wheels are
ten feet in diameter, and they have q
tread Of eighteen inches in width. The
steering wheels are six feet in diameter
and twelve inches broad in the face.
Ample provision is made for carrying
wood and water sufficient too run the
engines four hours. From the tests that
have been made, the wagon has been
proved capable of hauling eight tuns OF
freight at the rate Of four miles per hour,
or being propelled at the rate of six miles
per hour with one or two tuns behind it.
In an experiment in ascending Bergen
