. The Civil engineer and architect's journal, scientific and railway gazette. Architecture; Civil engineering; Science. ^H3M^ emery, h h, are portions of two pipes let into the sockets of the cock. For sluice-cocks without moveable buslies. the surface aKainst which the vnlve works is to be cliilled in the act of casting the body of the cock, so us to make it more durablej and afterwards ground true by a revolving tool uad emery. LOCOMOTIVE ENGINES. Thomas Russell Cramptok, of Southwark-square, London, engineer, for "Improvements in locomotive engines and ;—Granted Uct. 6, 1845; Enrolled April 6, 184G. The firtt claim is for arranging a locomotive engine so as to include the teoder ou the same carriage or frame; this is etfected as shown in fig. 1 Fig. where B is an upright tubular boiler, supported on the same framing that carries the tender T with the coke and water; c the cylinder fixed on the side of the tender, and d the driving wheels; the stage for the engine driver is between the boiler and tender. The second improvement relates to using external cranks or excentrics for working the slides, as sliown at ee, instead of having tlie excentric on the axle between the wlieels. The tliird im- provement is for forming the shape of the fire box, so as to increase the Fig. 2. length of the tubes and tlie area of the fire grate, as shown in lig. 2. The fourth improvement or claisn is for the combination of wooden rails with iron rails ; the wooden rail is fixed on the outside of tile ordin-iiy iron rail, and the top is a'tout one-fnurlh of an inch a'tove the top nf the iron by tiiis ar- rangement the wiiet-ls of the locomo- tive etigine may travel upon the wooden rail, and olitain greater adhesiveness, and the wheels of the carriages run upon the rails as at present.
