Important Discovery:

There seems to be no boudS to the appliances
of science. The people of New Orleans, weary
of the Inconvenience and expenses of getting
their lager beer from other places, have hit
upou "A process OF artificial cooling which
promises to be successful. We CLEAN from The
local papers that the proprietor OF brewery
recently invited a large number OF his friend,
To view a new process of r,frigerating which
he had Just established by patent rrtrigera-
ING machine. Without entering into any de-
tailed description, il is sufficient to state that
nv the process of liquefying the gas of am
monia, and drawing off the heat of the sur
rounding atmosphere, the owner has succeeded
completely in keeping the cellar OF his brew
erv, fifty feet by forty feet in Size and capable
of holding 5000 barrels, constantly supplied
with cold ail at the regular temperature OF 40
degrees Fahrenheit. The process. rs explain
ed, seems to involve no waste; the ammonac
Gas, as fast as it is condensed, returning into
The refngerating cylinder, Which contains
about ten cubic feet Of the liquid material.
Ii this amount of fluid can produce such re-
suits, the question arises aSto whether this
same process of liqUrfying ammonia could not
be used upon much larger scale-.or instance
in our theatres, churches, and other places OF
public resort whenever the atmosphere be
comes SO intensely heated as to require low

from the external air at so degrees into room
