! nuanced superior to any other now in use in the United
Slimes; it is more durable in its construction, and bet
ter adapted to the use of baking, roasting and cooking,
as it is heated very regularly by confining the air in
the stove; and it is a great saving of fuel as well as
labor. I will keep on hand a sufficient number to sup

to persons wishing to procure the Hot Air Stove, the
privilege of using it a sufficient length of time to prove
its superior quality before I ask them to purchase.
Persons notifying me from a distance by letter, can
have stoves put up at any time, as I have wagons to

Mr. R. Dos AVAN-Sir: I have In use ono of liath
tway's Hot Air Cooking Staves, which I got from you
last Sprin;. It affords me much pleasure to recom•
!nowt it for its excellence. So far as my knowledge
extends, I have no hesitation in saying it is the beat
stove now in use. I need not particularize its merits,
but would advise all disposed to possess an article of
the kind. to adopt the best method of satisfying them
selves, that is, to try it; and I doubt not they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.
Mr. R. DONAVON-Sir:-I haVO had in use for five
months, one of Hathaway's Hot Air Cooking Stoves,
and I have no hesitation in saying it is the best stove
now in u.e. The various kinds of cooking it is calcu
lated to du :It the sa-no time, and the sinall quantity
of fuel iequired, makes it an object worthy the atten
don of all whadesira a good stove.
THOMAS VARNF.R.
W' I embrace this opportunity to recommend the
Hut Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly all summer, and I must say it is
a grand article. I believe it is superior to any other
stove now in use in this city. The overt bakes well,
and is large enough to bake four large loaves of bread
at one time; it also cooks very speedily, and it requires
very little coal, I think them worthy the attention of all
who wish a good stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.

PORTABLE BOAT LINE
For the transportation of I.Verehandize to and from
PITTSBURGH, BALTIMORE, PHILADEL
PHIA, NEW YORK AND BOSTON.
THE success this line has met with, since it was
first established on the "Individual Enterprise"
system, has induced the proprietors to increase the
number of Boats during the winter to twenty-five, one
of which will leave Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Bal
timore every day (except Sundays) during the season,
and make the trip through in six days.
The superiority and advantages of the Portable Boat
System overevery other mode of transportation (when
canals intersect with rail roads) are too well known
to shippers by this route generally to require any corn
went.
Shippers can rely onhavingtheirproduce, merchant
dine, or goods of any kind that may be consigned to
the Agents of this Line, forwarded with dispatch and
at the very lowest rate of freight charged by other
Lines, without any additional charge made for receiv
ing or advancing charges, &c.
All communications to the following Agents will be
promptly attended tot
