AMERICAN ENTERPRIsE.-We notice in an
exchange an account OF the great steel works OF
the Messrs. Krupp in England. The toundries and
shops of the Messrs. Fairbanks & Ewing, which
are located in st. Johnsbury, VT, rival them
in extent. The Company's buildings cover many
acres, and give employment TO over eleven hun
dred men, with a monthly payroll of nearly
thirty thousand dollars. They are now building
large 'accessions to their works to meet the de-
mand which is already far in advance OF the
supply, and is increasing. This Company, whose
principa! warehouses are in this city, and whose
store is at No. us Chestnut street, manufacture
all descriptions ofscales, from the immense rail-
road turntables to the most delicate and sensi.
tive jewellers ana drug gst's balance that is acted
on by breath. They are all built upon the
most simple plan that is compatible with per.
fection of accuracy. They also manufacture
dry measures of all kinds of standard capacities.
1t is needless to speak of their scales, for tney
have worldwide reputation. The firm are
now manufacturing patent gas regulator, in
vented by DR.. G. Nj. Cresson. This regulator is
intended TO be used in public buildings and
large halls, to secure steady and uniform flow
of gas. 1t Is now used in most of our public
buildings, and with marked good effect. In the
Post Office alone, its use has saved to the Gov
ernment over 100000 feet of gas ia one year. Its
operation can be seen at the store, No. 7l5 Ches-
