S FLAME ENCIRCLED OVEN COOKING STOVE. FTSFMllS Stove combines all that is val 3 uable in existing Cooking Stoves with certain improvements peculiar to itself. It is constructed upon a new and entirely distinct principle truly philo snphical, so as to pass the flue entirely round the oven, thus making it enveloped or JJamc encircled, without impairing the necessary draught of the tune. This method of thus passing twice round, once over and once under the oven, is the secret of its great economy in the use of fuel, while the enlargement of the air chamber affords increased space for the rarefaction of air and compensates for the usual disadvantages of a circular draught. It bakes, loasis, and boils, easjer and better than any Stove )et of fered to the public, with the advantage over most of them of saving one half the fuel. It is superior to the "Queen of the West," "Hurt's Patent," "Eclipse" or Hathaway s Patent," for the follow ing reasous: In these Stoves the upper side of tbc oven is dependant for heal end can have from no oilier source than what radiates through the plate on which the fire is made. If the ashes be lifted clean, too much heat w ill radiate and burn the bread on the upper fide, if too much ashes be left, the bread will not bake on the upper side. Of this defect all good cooks complain. This Stove is entirely free of this objection, the oven always heating exactly alike lop and bottom, and ends. Mwy buy the Premium or step stove and others'of similar model. These Stoves consume much fuel, for first the fire chamber is too deep, the pots &c, are too high a- bove the lire. Second when using the j oven, all the heal which passes off under the oven being one ha'f, never conies in contact with the boiling utensils, passesofi" into the pipe and is lost. Also our Stove is so arranged with a bank or elevation in the fire chamber as to ensure the use of the flame upon the forward part of the Stove first, and it then passes back bfterward heating all alike whereas Stoves like the Hathaway, having one iest chamber, allow too wide a range for the flame without suffcicnt concen tration.

HOTEL for Iff VALBUS AT PITTSBURGH. Drs, Speer and Hulm. riTMIE object of this establishment is Jl. to supply a want greatly fell by re- spectable travellers on our western highS ways by residents, without family, ta ken sick and by patients from the sur rounding towns and country who rcscrt to this place for relief Irom surgical and other diseases. Such have often suffered from the want of the various comforts and attentions so necessary and agreeabla to the sick, and from careless and un faithful nurses; and been subjected to heavy and unreasonable charge. Invalids will here be provided with constant, faithful and comfortable atten dance, snd at a rate much below the nsn al charges. " " While the care of both physicians will be extended to every variety of disease, it is intended by Dr. Speer, lo give spe cial attention .to ALL SURGICAL DISEASES, PARTICULARLY TO DISEASES. OF THE EYE. To these branches of his profession he lias given a large share of his atten ion for the last twenty-five years, and! he will continue to devote to them ths experience acquired by a constant prac lice during that time. The Hotel for Invalids is not an exper iment. Its establishment is suggested not only as necessary to supply an evi dent want in this city, in ihc entire ab sence of any special provision for iho sick, but is warranted also by the success of similar institutions al Cincinnati and New Orleans the former under the care of Drs. Taliaferro, Marshall and Slradtr the latter under that of Dr. Sione. The building selected for the purpoa is situated at the ccrner of Federal and Robinson streets, in Allegheny city, ad joining the city of Piu.-lursh. It is commodious and roomy, a:i ! furnished with all accommodations necessary for he sick. Applications for admission la be mada to the subscribers, at their ofiice on Pern street.
