THE constant increase in the extent oi
the transatlantic meat trade has given an
impetus TO the invention OF means Of pre-
serving tho meat in good condition during
Its long voyage. The result has been the
dcyisiug Of a variety Of refrigerators, each
thought by its inventors 10 be the bes;
adapted for the purpose. The latest in
vention Of this kind is q mechanical re.
irlgerator patented by two scotchmen,
which Is intended to take the place of the
ice refrigerator, now In general use. Air
is forced into suitable rcccses Of the re-
frigcntor until n prcssdrcls indicated Of
about thir,y.cisht pounds to the square
inch. II Is then cooled BY circulating
cold water around the pipes orreceptaeles.
When the air escapes, It's expansion
causes n fall Of temperature below the
freezing point. Ice is formed on the sides
OF the chamber or compartment In which
the meat Is stored; so that really this re-
trigeratOr Is combined with an ice,machine
operated by steam power. Itissaidthat the
meat l,as boon kept fresh IN this rccep-
taClc for month. Another invention Of
the day is one tending to increase tho com.
fort Of trnyelerj by rail. II Is almost un-
necessary 10 say that this invention differs
from the preceding In being an American
device. Great Britain, whose travellers
have Just arrived ut the luxury OF the priv
iIegc OF purchasing ice water ut the rail-
way stations from little boysprovided with
buckets and glasses, can hardly be expect
ed to invent anything new for the benefit
OF travellers. II will be time enough for
that when the comforts already enjoyed

been made is q substitute for the ordinary
