In shot it is the SIMPLEST, SAFEST, most
DURABLE and most ECONOMICAL Engine in
the world. We fully guarantee them in all the above
particulars. COLTS ARMS co. have spared no
expense in getting up SPECIAL TOOLS AND MA
CHIMES with which to build these Engines, SO that
Interchangeable, the Importance of which will be I'M
derstood by all who are at all familiar with machine
cry Thus, every Engine OF given size is an exact
duplicate of every other one of that size, and III
OF breakage, the broken part can be Immediately re-
placed by its perfect duplicate.
The inventor OF this Engine had in view, in its
constructions the great need that exists tor perfect
OF light mechanical work, and that should also
bine all that is good in Steam Engineering.
The first point was, to secure perfectly philo-
sophcal Boiler and Furnace in order to insure the
most perfect combustion and to take up the greatest
possible amount of heat in generating steam
The second point was, to make perfect cutoff
Engine, working steam expansiyely, and keeping up
the temperature OF the cylinder to prevent loss by
radiation or condensation.
The third point was, to combine and make the
whole mechanically and scientifically correct
chine; all its parts being provided with means to
take up lost motion, that it may be used for any
numoer of years, and always run smoothly. In all
these particulars much care has been taken in
the largest and most perfect engine ever constructed
The result is-THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF POWER
PRoPoRTIoNED TO THE AMOUNT OF FUEL CON-
of scienee-at acoter is the best medium to trans
NIT the mechanical forces, generated in the COM
custom of fuel, to the production of motive o0cer.

LEATHER PAPER. Professor David
owski, an Austrian, has succeeded in
producing paper which looks exactly
like leather, and may in many instances
be used as its substitute. Dawidowski
uses for his purpose the so-called parch-
ment paper, which, by his process, he
renders so pliable and supple, and so
similar to leather in color and gloss, that
it would even be capable of deceiving
the most sldllful in the trade. This
leather paper may be used as substi-
tute in bookbinders', box, case, and
etat work, and samples exhibited at Wen
IA prove that it can be well gilt, pressed,
gummed. and rolled, like natural leather
For bookbinding, it is especially appro-
PIRATE, as its surface withstands with
great resistance the effects of wear and
tear, does not get dirty, and is even I'M
peryious to wet.

PRAYER BEFORE BATTLE Whether
it is true or not that the Welsh are
qlarrelsome people, we cannot under
take to say the following lalghable
anecdote, however, would seem in some
measure to countenance the conclusion
(and Shakespeare, we believe, almost in
variably represents his Welsh characters
as touchy to degree) that there is
modicun, of truth in the charge. But to
the story. A Scotch peddler, without
the remotest intention on his part of
getting into a quarrel or fight with any
man, had put up with his pack for the
night, at a country ale-house bordering
on Wales, where, as the fates would have
it, he found motley assemblage in the
kitchen of the inn, of not the most desir-
able individuals; and, among the rest,
Welshman, whose aim, from the very
first, it seemed to be to get into hot
water with poor Sawney. The latter,
sagaciously appriciating the true charact-
er Of his tormentor, and determined to
get rid of him in the quietest way posi-
BILE, told him that he 'sdid not want to
fight" This only excited to still high
er pitch the brauado of the Welshman,
and he told the Scotchman that he
would ''make him fight ''Well,' says
Sawney, elf I must fight, let me say my
prayers before fight, which the Welsh
man conceding, the Scotchman fell upon
his knees, imploring his Maker to par
don him for ''the t11o men he had al
