PORTABLE STEAM ENGINES. 
ri'^HE subscriber respectfirlly calls the attention of '-'outhern 
X Planters and Mechanics to the PORTABLE STEAM EN- 
GINES, of which he has the Agency in New Orleans. They are 
so simple in their construction that any negro of ordinary capacity 
can be taught to run one in a day. For driving light machinery, 
running cotton gins, plantation saw mills, or corn mills, pumping 
water, steaming food, etc., they cannot be excelled. A striking 
feature of these engines is that they cost less than would mules or 
horses, to do the same amount of work. A pair of horses will 
readily move them place to place over any ordinary road. They 
require no brick-work to set them up, but they are all ready to be 
put in operation, with the exception of a smoke-pipe or chimney. 
One is kept at work in the subscriber’s warehouse every day be- 
tween 9 and 3 o’clock, a) d all are invited to call and inspect it. 
The Planter, especially, should look wfith pleasure upon the intro- 
duction of these Engines, to take the place of horse-power in gin- 
ning cotton and grinding corn, as the cost of running a 6, 8, or 10 
horse Engine is much less per day than the expense of feeding the 
same number of horses:
