osing the calcined and crushed ores in a series of deoxidizing chambers, where it is exposed to the heat of the burning gases which come from the furnace below. It is pushed from the floor of one chamber to another, and in the last chamber is exposed to hydrogen generated by the decomposition of a jet of steam injected upon it to aid in ridding it of sulphur and phosphorus. Thence to the charcoal bed and refining chamber, where the loop is formed, and whence it is taken to the hammer. Henderson's process for the manufacture of ironsteel (patents, 1870) embraces the use of fluor-spar and titaniferous ores, and treating crude ores by fluorides and oxides. The Ellershausen process consists in the conversion of crude cast-iron into wrought-iron by the admixture of granulated iron ore, a layer of molten iron, and a sprinkling of powdered ore, alternating in molds. These blooms are put in a reverberatory, puddled, squeezed, and rolled. Bessemer has patented in England a mode of

axis of the crank-shaft. In the Ball machine, shortly afterward, the drag-bar was joined rigidly to the finger-bar, and thus united drag-bar and brace in itself. The lateral brace was the same. 1856. The combined rake and reel of the Dorsey machine sweeping in a general horizontal direction across the quadrantal platform. 1857. Crook introduced an arrangement of driving-gears of unequal size to be used separately for changing the rapidity of vibration of the cutters. 1860. The Henderson rake, or what is known as the wood machine, having a chain below the platform which carries the rake in a curved path. 1861. The Sieberling dropper, which is a slatted platform that vibrates to discharge the gavel. 1861. Dutton inclosed the gearing in a metallic case, forming a part of the main frame. Plate XLVI. shows three forms of the Whiteley Champion harvester of Springfield, Ohio. The upper figure is the mowing-machine; below it is the reaping-machine, with dropping arrang

haft revolves. p is a bonnet covering the manhole in the cylinder bottom. Engines of this description have been made up to 90 horsepower. As the effective area of the upper side of the piston is less than the lower, the steam has been used first above, and then allowed to pass below, where it acts expansively in giving the upward stroke. See also Whitham's United States patent, September 4, 1841, using live steam on annular head, and expanding same steam on circular head See also Henderson's patent. April 5, 1870, No. 101, 617. In Root's engine, August 7, 1866, No. 56,993, the piston is attached to an elongated trunk extending through both heads of the cylinder. The pitman passing through the trunk is attached to the end thereof most remote from the crank-shaft, and this end works in guides secured to the cylinder-head Root's trunk-engine. The double-trunk engines constructed by John Penn and Sons, Greenwich, England, for the English iron-clad Hercules, are said to
