A MIGurY MAcHTNE.-The big pumping
engine at the Overlnan runs so still that an
indicator is necessary to tell when and bow
1t moves, unless you get around where you
can see the "rocky. my-soul" Of the pumps.
1t is 7OO-horse power for all that, and, be-
cause of that, it does its work 80 easily and
quietly. No old woman ever slipped tea
from a teaspoon any more naturally than
this engine sips steam till it gets enough for
a swallow, when away it goes at gulp, and
the effect is felt clear away down into the
belly OF the mine. 1t knows enough not
only to feed itself steam, but to supply its
condenser too. Every time it fetches water
from the depths it brings up from point
thirty feet below the surface drink OF nice
cool water from the reservoir tunnel, emp
tying it into tank, and then gives it to the
condenser as needed. 1t is almost human,
and in many things superhuman; and the
song OF triumph that it sings is mghtier
one than the so Ppan" of the ancient
Greeks Virginia city (Neu.) Enterprise.
