Steam gun.

--A queer looking machine, which, we were told, was a "Centrifugal Steam Gun, " was carried up Main street yesterday on a wagon, and was an object of much curiosity. The colored driver was unable to explain its peculiarities, and we did not endeavor to learn its destination. The machine had a nozzle like unto a blacksmith's bellows.
