Fig. 46 shows the hook-motion valve-gear, Fig. 47 thedash, and Fig. 48 the governor, which has light balls made to run at three times the speed ofthe engine, and a heavy sliding weight. The Fishkill-Corliss Engine.—A sectional view of the cylinder of this engine is shown inFig. 49. and a side view of the valve-motion is shown in Fig. 50. Cites releasing valve-gear,as applied to this engine, is shown in the accompanying detailed cuts. Fig. 51 is a front elevation,and Fig. 52 is a plan. Theseshow the valve-gear as it appearswhen engaged, and in the middleof its travel. Figs. 53, 54. and55 are rear elevations. Fig. 53shows the parts in engagementat the moment the valve beginsto open ; Fig. 54 shows the posi-tion of the parts immediatelyafter the valve has been released,and Fig. 55 illustrates the actionof the stop-motion. In all the figures A representsthe valve-stem and B the valve-lever, which is sec
