We particularly solicit UitvaUontlou o* liJ> ' Railroad offieota to the advertisement hea<lfd « Railroad Dangeis.” It is pUlu, dlreot, rorolble, erd honest,.asd should arrest the thought of all Ballrotd officials, The improvement there noted has been thoroughly tried; some hundreds of the maohinek mo Jo use in all the cars of some of our heat managed Jiooa > and it ia iha'oplnlbn of all who have examined it that it wlil ha universally used. It la offerol on the moat favorable terms RAILROAD DANGERS,—For tho last twenty years, or perhaps since the system of Railroads has oeen es tablished io this country, there havo, iuall probability, been losses by ao ident to the extent of twenty millions of collars. These have been dear, absoluto losses to the commuofty—as much ao as property destroyed by lire or sunk In theocoan. But theso disasters have been of a peoullar chnaoter. and, .In tho main, not those of fire,or flood; they have arisen' from the ordtuar/ cou dittonsof arailroad train In progress ithey have been caused by tho Inherent momentum that ia a necessary properly of great matata of matter In motion. A Railroad Train is exposed to peouliar danger from this cause.- Its track of iron and level grade aro bjth made for the purpose of allowing its free progroae, and the very ease and freedom ofmotiofl aggravate the danger. of momentum. . _ Again, a Railroad Is lutecded as a moans or rspid trsinit for persors and property, and the component patts of a locomotive and ears for travel on rails rapidly, are made necessarily heavy and stroog-ir otherwise, they would soon shea* to places. It follows, then, that weight, ease of motion, frr edom from obstruction, and rapid transit, all oonduee powerfully t<> create momen- , turn From accurate calculations it is found that the ‘effective momentum of a train of six cars and an engine is vtiual to a force of 700 tons. The truth of this state*' mens 1s painfully e© f-evldent at a sudden eol’lsion nr obstruction. This FEARFUL DANGER WHIOH 18 BVERPBBSSNT to a train la only partially recognised by Bailroad officials. It is, however, unferstood to some extent, and each car Is provided with brakes, or 1 blocks, arranged to press agalcst the wheels by the I action of tho br&keman. This plan works very well lor ! the uaual stoppages of a train, when sufficient notice is given to the brakeman by the engineer; bat for those cases of danger which have arisen, and will arise, In spite of the most rigid sorutiny, it is notoriously mem* oi«nt, as all exparlence p ores. It is of no use for an officer to *B*y that nothing can happen to { * our ” train Thero is not a moment th t a train is in motion but that it is exposed to dangers which a porfect control would prevent, and there should net be an instant of time in which a train is running, but ihat tho facilities should be at band for an instant, simultaneous aid powerful application of the retarding appliances of every oar. Itlsnotthe oustom on many toads to employ moro than one brakeman to two or three cars, and on some not more than one to four or five cars Tho laws of somo States roquiro a hrakoman tj each two osrrf ye bold that there should be one toevory car, and that a mechanical brakoman is vastly more reliable than one of flesh and hlooi. Bar ng the Issfc few years an Invention has been made and perfected by the nodersignod, the object of which is to place all the braklogappiiancas of a train in readi* neai for prompt and, united action. The closest atten tion that we haro been able to b.ing to bear on this sub ject, and an aoaljsis of the various sccldoats that have occurred, lead most conolus’vely to this result, viz: that the menus should always be at hand throughout the train to arrest the momentum at every point where it exists; 2 That the ongine msn, from his station, gene rally sees the obstruction or danger first, consequently hoihou'dbe enabled, of his own volition, to apply la an instant every h eke; 3. liio Ij.blhty to accidents from btoakirgof wheels, axlts,rails, chairs, accidental reparation, and defections at various points on the ti" n lender .it of '.he first Import*!"'* that every bar thouM A'.'rv it* i.*tu retarding appliances perfectly mde* pci» J<’ii. in i;*.*j©n of any other Hundreds ofcoutrl raur-» h\T,. a made in the way of continuous brakes, norcof 'flucji have over attained a perfect success—the preerstty com; licity of adjustment, and the total failure of such ;i coutrivauce, often at the very moment when most netted, are insuperable obstacles to the success of such a devlco as a moans of guarding against, and miti gating all the accidents to which a train is expos d. The Invention referred to consists in the attachment of a re* served power to tho brakes of each car, placing them all in readiness for united action, either from the en gine or any point on the train A description of the mechanism is unnecessary at this place; suffice it to saj, ft is extierae y simple, and perfectly efficient, and full and detailed engravings, and description may be found in our circulars, to be had on application at our , office. , . , There Is another, ami psrhspsthe strongest, point In favor of the adoption of this precaution*, namely, its gioat cheapness. For Instance, take a road owning, say, fifty cars; the fir. t cost, at our present prloe, would be $0,250; the interest on this amount at 7 (or say 9 per cent, which fs nearer the rate that railroad companies pay/or ihe usj of money) is $582 per year. A company bavlog this attachment to their cars would save the wages of at least three brakemon, which wou’d be, say, $9OO a year; while the simple itsurauce against acci dent to life and property which Buch a precaution would give would be worth at leant half the cost of tbe Im provement. Wo submit that we make out a strong case in favor of the adoption of such a security. And now, -then, in conclusion, we add tbatsome hundreds of these Machines are in use in the Hotted States, and they aro on the whole passenger stcck of all tbb following roads, to any or all of tho'offlcors of which we refer all parties Interested, in place of certificates, of which we have plenty; Hudson River, Cleveland and Toledo, Terre Haute and Richmond, Old Colony and kail River, MichU chlgsn Central, Pauama, Ao. Further thauthis: We trill furnish the machines for ALL TUB PASSENGER AND BAGGAOK CABS OP ANYROAD, AND GIVM EACH COMPANY FOR ITSELF THK OPPORTU NITY TO TEST ITS VALUE, FREE OF CHARGE. WK WILL GIVE POUR MONTHS’ TRIAL BEFORE SETTLEMENT, AND EACH COMPANY SHALL BE ITS OWN FUDGE OP ITS VALUE. Can WE do more than this ? And dors not every officer assume a FEAR FUL'RESPONSIBILITY who neglects for a moment each an offer? We do not make this offer asmere mean ingless talk. but WE MKAN IT JUST EXACTLY AS IT IS EXPRESSED. This devieb will give an amount or security to a train that is impossible wi boat it; and no company need say “ We know nothing about it.” or «it is an experiment of doubtful utility,” or, “itis untried,” Ac. We do not ask jou'to incur expense or buy patent rights; wo offer you merchandise of tried, perfected, and warranted value We thall send a copy of this advertisement to the officeof every Company la the Union, and solicit on their part a recognition of the merits of this improvement, and the extraordinarily low and favorable terms on which it ia at present offered, The universal usa of this devlco, however ranch it may benefit us, will promote the railroid interest, and the public good-generally a hundrelfold more.
