section, or side elevation, with part of the side removedto show the internal construction.

88 Jenkins, George, 4 Nassau Street, Soho —Inventor and Patentee.

New hydro-pneumatic engine. The object of whichis to employ water pressure to drive the piston of theengine in one direction, and a vacuum being produced,to make use of atmospheric pressure to drive it in anopposite direction.

90 Read, Stephen King, 50 Paradise Street, Rotherhitkc

—Inventor and Maker.

Double-action metallic pump, for domestic purposes ;by fixing a hose on the nozzle, it will act as a powerfulfire-engine.

Harrow Road —Inventor.

Model of a new patent propeller, attached to a boat.

The fire annihilator, a portable machine, for extinguish-ing fire. This apparatus will, when occasion requires,instantaneously discharge, with the power of steam, anatmosphere of gases and vapour, possessing the propertyof suddenly subduing and rapidly extinguishing fire,without saturating the unburnt property. The vapouremitted from the machine, by its expansive force, inter-mixes with the fire, whether in a confined space or in theopen air, while the air about the fire is rendered inno-cuous. The property the vapour has of circulating inthe flames, and permeating amongst the burning goods,gives it the power to extinguish fires that may be unap-proachable and inextinguishable by water. The machinesand the chemical charges are not liable to get out of orderby time or change of climate, and the management is sosimple and easy that any one may use and recharge them.

Directions for Use. —With the knob of the stopper strikedown the pin beneath it. A dense cloud of vapour in-stantaneously rushes forth, which being cast upon theburning materials extinguishes the fire.

Description of the Apparatus. —A and B, cases forming aclose chamber to contain water up to the level of thescrew vent-plug Z, and the air in the annular space above.

C, a pipe forming the handle, and a screw-cap, V;this pipe may be stopped with a plug of soap at W.

D, a perforated cylinder. .

E, the charge-case, also perforated.

F, the inner lid, having a neck, X, to keep it down inits place.

G, the cover, having a discharge-pipe, V.

H, an iron-pin supported by a special spring.

I, the stopper.

K, the charge: composition of nitre and gypsum.

L, the igniter, being a glass sheath, containing a bottleof mixture—chlorate of potass and sugar, and a smallbottle of sulphuric acid.

The action is as follows:—the pin being forced downbreaks the igniter bottles; the sulphuric acid, fallingon the chlorate of potass and sugar, ignition takesplace; the flame of the ignition mixture spreading overthe upper surface of the charge, the charge instanta-neously ignites, and evolves heated gases, which, in theirpassage through the perforated cylinder, impinge againstcylinder B, expand the contained air, and produce steambetween A and B, by which the water is forced upthrough the tubular passage. The vapour of the water,mixing with the hot gases, escape together from the dis-charge tube, in a dense expansive cloud, and are con-tinuously delivered until the charge and the water areexpended.

105 Leadenhall Street , City —Producer.

Patent machine for extinguishing fire in buildings, inships, and in mines, invented by W. H. Phillips, Esq.

94 Hill, William, Blackheath Road , Greenwich —

Inventor and Manufacturer.

Registered flue-boiler and furnace for hot-water appa-ratus, as applied for warming buildings.

96 Simons, W. Vazie, South Shields —Inventor.Electro-magnetic machine.

97 Rhone, Edw., 7 Cooper’s Gardens , Hackney Road —Inventor.

Models of two revolving blade paddle wheels fixed on askeleton hull, for propelling steam vessels. Their sub-mersion in the water obviates the lifting of back waterand the creation of a great swell; the action of the wheelscan be reversed on deck or below without altering thespeed or reversing the engine; and the motion of thewheels being uniform, they can be fixed either horizontallyor perpendicularly.

98 Scott, Michael, 6 John Street , Adelphi —Inventor.

Hydraulic machine for raising water or producing avacuum in any situation where there is a fall of water ora running stream.

100 Erskine, Daniel, Clerk Street , Edinburgh —Inventor and Manufacturer.

New land beam engine, having balance valves, with anew method of reversing, and other improvements for

lilliE
