A steel boiler of the egg-ends hape, i feet in diameter and 30 feet in length, -without flues, was tried. It had a steam drum 2 feet in diameter and 2 feet in height, and the plates were, one-forirth.of an inch in thickness. Beside it there was placed another boiler, similar excepting that the plates were of 0,414 of an inch in thictaiess. The steam boiler was tested by hydraulic pressure up to 195 pounds on the inch, without leakage, and both the on and stee 1 boilers were worked under a pressure ef 65 pounds on the inch for about one Ie e £4ted a^r D £i? E tWs P* riod tbe steel boUer generated <25 per cent, more steam than the iron one, and when .they were thoroughly eximtaed alter eighteen months’ practical workingTlhere •was less scale in the steel than in the iron boil" The former evaporates 11. 66 cubic feet of water per hour; the iron boiler 9.37 cubic feet. The cmanmv of coal consumed was on an average 2.7o6nonnVte for the steel one in twelve hours, and 2,972 pounds for the iron boiler. The plates of the steel boiler -oyer the fire were found to be uninjured, while fhose of the iron one were about worn out; In iTJjassia several worn-out plates of iron boilers . T?* , eI ? h o en,replaced with'steel, which, it is stated, lasts four times as long. As steel is twice as strong as iron, thinner plates of the former may be employed for boilers, and more perfect riveting can be secured, a greater quantity of steam can also be generated in the steel boiler on account of its thin plates, and thus much fuel may be eeono sieam boilers should engage the at make and use steam boilers fir engineering and manufacturing purpose. — ou Monday the 19th regi rieß-S ander the command of Colonel O.
