Tin pipes.
[The tin pipes here exhibited are believed to be the firstsuccessful attempt to produce those pipes in continuouslengths by hydraulic pressure, and at a cost renderingtheir general adoption practicable. The objection to leadpipes as a conduit for -water arises from the fact that theyimpart a cumulative poison to that fluid; but their cheap-ness has continued them in general use in spite, of thiswell-known objection. The advantages claimed for themover lead are that they are stronger, lighter, loss likely toget bruised or injured, are more readily worked, and aresafe, sweet, and incorruptible conduits for fluids.—S.]

A speeder flier.
[This flier is said to be an improvement on those incommon use. With the exception of the bottoms, it ismade of cast steel. The advantages claimed are, that it islighter by several ounces than the common fliers, that itdoes not expand by a sudden increase of speed, is noteasily bent, and does not choak in damp weather. It isalso durable and cheap. The invention has been in usethree years. Several thousand are now running in Man-chester N. II., some in Lowell, Massachusetts , and invarious other places.—S.]
