Scperueated Steam. A contributor to
an eastern exchange italei tbatexperimenti
which were conducted on tbe ttearaer St.
Jobo after tbe damage from tbe explosion
ofooeoi her boiler Had been repaired
proved by tbe actual application of tbe
thermometer, tbat the temperature of tbe
ateam would occasisnally run tip suddenly
several hundred degrees, even while tbe
water was at tne proper height, and
tbat no perceptible increase lo tbe pressure
of tbe steam resulted from tbe increase of
temperature. Tbe writen says tbat at the
late fair of tbe American Institute tbere was
exhibited a mibstituie for felling for cover
ing boilers made from material absolutely
Incombustible and wbicb wai at tbe same
time a non-conductor of beat, therefore well
adapted for covering boilers. Many fires
would be prevented If it were generally
ted. Tbere wai also exhibited a device
far controllng the temperature of tbe iteam
in boilers, which wai highly commended as
a means of preventing Ores by keeping tbe
steam at the same . temperature at tbe
water in boiler, and a a meant of prevent
ing boiler explosions.

Tbe "vote" that all are praising
