PORTABLE STEAM ENGINES. 
T he subscriber respectfully calls the attention of ^‘outhem 
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 negi-o of ordinary capacity 
can be taught to run one in a day. For driving light machinery, 
running cotton gins, plantation saw mUls. 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 tliey are all ready to be 
put in operation, with the exception of a smoke-pipe or chimney. 
One is kei)t at work in the subscriber’s warehou.se every day be- 
tween 9 and 3 o’clock, ai d all are invited to call and inspect it. 
The Planter, especially, should look with plea.sure upon the intro- 
duction of these Engines, to take the place of horse-power in gin- 
ning cotton and grinding corn, as the cost or running a 6, 8, or Id 
hor.se Engine is much less per day than the expense of feeding the 
same number of horses;
