erful rolliDg machinery, but so loosely was the
steel held to the iron that the two metals soon
separated and become quite as dangerous as
the primitive plate rail which so often turned
up as a "snake's bead" and went crashing
through the cars to the almost sure destruction
of life. But we now hear of a
New Made of Welding Steel to Iron,
Recently invented by Mr. Eldridgo Wheeler, of
Philadelphia, which promises to effect quite a
revolution in the economical and effective mode
of the process. The merits of the invention are
undoubtedly large, and command themselves
at once fo the Intelligent mechanic and en-trineer.
Our own government has recognized its
value, and the Chief of Ordnance at Washing
ton has been appointed to give the matter a
thorough investigation. Bismarck, who has
already been informed with regard to it, fans de
tailed one of his most experienced engineers to
visit Philadelphia for a similar purpose.
The prinoiple of this process rtsts in the
fact that the only practicable way to make a
business of uniting iron and steel is to bring
them to a welding heat in one "pile" and
simultaneously, and to then manipulate them
by rotary'niotion. The difficulty which has
hitherto been considered insurmountable is,
in marine engines, and the result is a steady,
quiet movement, almost inaudible in the saloon,
even when the engint s are at high pressure
The sleeping cabins for the flrst-closs passen
gers are of a very superior character, most of
them being placed on the main deck, forward
of the fpacions dining saloon. A number of
staterooms on the upper or hurricane deck are
arranged for two passengers only, while a few
nro admirably adapted for families. They are
covered by a light and elegant deck, affording
an elegant promenado for passengers during
the day-time, and projecting sufficiently over
each side to provide an awnins for the cabins
and a roomy sheltered walk. The windows
and Venetian blinds, with which tbese cabins
are fitted, must make them exceedingly light
ana airy, rue dining saloon is very handsome,
extending across tne snip from Blue to side,
with four tables running fore and aft the en
tire length. It rneasutes sixty feet by thirty
eight feet, with sixteen inside ports, and is
lighted and ventilated by a lofty, dome-shaped
skylight, which is one of the most striking
features of the ship. Contrary to custom, the
tnloon is placed forward of the funnel, thus es
caping the smoke and heat from the engine
room. 'Ihe Australia has accommodation- for
101 first class, 24 second-class, and 85 third
class passengers.

Our intimate knowledge of the various in

satisfy our patrons; and our success and
business are constantly increasing.
The shrewdest and most experienced Inventors
are found among our most steadiast mends
unit natrons, who fnllv arrareciate our advan
tages in bringing valuable inventions to the
notice of the publio through the columns of
onr widely circulated, first-class journals

Foreign Patents.
In addition to American Patents, we secure
with the assistance of co-operative agents,
claims in all foreign countries whioh grant
Patents, including Great Britain, France,
Belgium. Prussia. Austria, Victoria. Peru.
Uuisia, Spain, British India, Saxony, British
Columbia, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Mexico,
Victoria, Brazil, Bavaria, Holland, Den
murk, Italy, Portugal, Cuba, Boman States,
SVurtemberg, New Zealand, New South
wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Brazil, Hew
Grenada, Chili, Argentine Bepublio, AND
EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD
where Patents are obtainable.
No models are required in European coun
tries, but the drawings and specifications
should be prepared with thoroughness, by
able persons who are familiar with the re
quirements and changes of foreign patent
laws agents who are reliable and perma
nently established.
Our sohedule prices for obtaining foreign pat
ents, in all cases, will always be as low. and
in some instances lower, than those of any
other responsible agency.
We can and do get foreign patents for inventors
in the Pacific States from two to six months
(according to the location of the country
800NEB than any other agents.
The principal portion of the patent business of
this coast has been done, and is still being
done, through our agency. We are familiar
with, and have full records, of all former
cases, and can more directly judge of the
and patentability of inventions discovered
here than any other agents.
Situated so remote from the seat of goverment,
delays are even more dangerous to the invent
ors of the Pacific Coast than to applioants in
the Eastern States. Valuable patents may be
lost by extra time consumed in trans mitting
specifications from Eastern agencies back to
this coast for the signature of the inventor.

Confidential.
We take great pains to preserve secrecy in all
confidential matters, and applicants for pat
ents can rest assured that their communi
cations and business transactions will be held
Btrictly confidential by ns. Circulars free.
Home--Counsel.
Onr long experience in obtaining patents for
inventors on mis uoasc nas iammarizea ts
with the cbaraoter of most of the inventions
already patented; hence we are frequently
able to save orfr patrons the cost of a fruitless
application by pointing them to the same
thing already covered by a patent. We are
always free to advise applicants of any
knowledge we have of previous applicants
which will interfere with their obtaining a
patent.
We invite the acquaintance of all parties con
nected with inventions and patent right busi
ness, believing that the mutual conference of
legitimate business ana proteesional men is
mutual gain. Parties in doubt in regard to
their rights as assignees of patents, or pur
chasers of patented articles, can often receive
advise of importance to them from a short
call at our office.
Remittances of money, made by individual in
ventors to the Government, sometimes mis
carry, and it has repeatedly happened that
applicants have not only lost tbeir money
but their inventions also, from this cause and
consequent delay. We hold ourselves re
sponsible for all fees entrusted to our agency
Engravings.
We have superior artists in our own office, and
all facilities for producing fine and satisfac
tory illustrations of inventions and machinery,
for newspaper, book, circular and other
printed illustrations, and are always ready to
assist patrons in bringing their valuable ..lis
ooveries into practical una profitable use.

lurking humors lu the system, that undermine health
and settle into troublesome disorders. Eruptions of
the skin are the appearance on the surface of humors
that should be expelled from the blood. Internal de
rangements are the determination sf these same humors
to some internal organ, or organs, whose action they
derange, and whose substance they disease and destroy.
Ayer's Sahsapabtlla expels these humors from the
blood. When they are gone, the disorders they produce
disappear, such as Ulcerations of the Liver, Stomach,.
