Eiq —Dear Sir: You ask how we are pleased with our heating pipes for warming the shop by exhaust steam, as altered by you. I will state that they work charmingly, and we are sitisfied that you have rendered them efficient and useful. Heretofore they were of no ute to ns, although put up at considerable expense, and since overhauled without benefit, and they were abandoned, as they choked the engine and gave no heat: but now there seems to be no difficulty in that respeot, our shop is well heated, and the work appears to oe well done. Very respeotfully yoors, C. T. PARRY, flnp’tofMTW. Baldwin’s Locomotive Works. GißsoHtov Minna, Oot 17,1858. Mr. Jossvk W. Asm oar .—Dear Bir: YourJavor of the ltth lust, has been received, and should have re ceived my attention earlier, but conld not for want of litre, you wish to know how our pipes in the store room answer the purpose for which they were inte .ded. I would say they work almost to perfection: we can con trol them so as to make any degree of heat desired in a T «ry short time. A. Buchanan, the man who uses them, tells me he can raise.the heat to9o degrees in ten minutes after letting in steam, and says he does not know to what height he could raise the heat as he never has bad occasion to test thfir full capacity. He thinks the heat conld be raised high enough for our pun- Eeae with half the quantity of pipes It requires watch ig to prevent the heat from risiog too bign. Yours, very truly. d29-wfm6t# HARBIBON MASON. riHEISTMAS DINNER EXTENSION V-S TABLES, good and Cheap, at manufactory, 369 South THIRD Btreet EXTENSION TABLES, suitable for ships, J-J steamboats, hotels, and dwellings, forsale cheap, t manufactory, No. 869 South THIRD Street AlB-lm mAB, Fitch, and Oakum constantly on hand A and for sale, In lots to salt purchasers, by WEA VER, PITLSR.
