XEW-3IOriYJ- A practical man in Philadelphia by the naino of John W. Keelj who haj spent a good deal of time perimenting for . new motive power, claims to have found it, and is at present, (in connection with others,) taking 6teps to appropriate to actual use the power upon which he relies to revolutionize the industries of the world, or if successful, which will produce such revolution whether he proposes it or not. This new power, which it is claimed will tako the place ot steam, is nothing more nor less than vapor, which Mr. Kecly produces in a "generator," invented by him. This invention is about three feet high, made of Austrian gun metal in cne Bjlid pieca and will hold about teu or twelve gallons of water. It is four or five inches thick and made to stand the very heavy pressure of L'0,000 to 30,000 a pouuds of vapor to the square inch. Tho inventor claims , in ex that this aparatus will generate cold vapor from water without the use of chemicals, and that it can be used to the best advantage at a pregsure of from 20,000 to 30,000 pounds to the it may be seen at a glance whaj might be tire result should the exper iment of Mr. Keely succeed. In this connection it may not be improper to surgest the inquiry, which has often occurred to the wn ter. Are the various inventions of the age which is really an inventive one by which the labor of human hands has been in a great many instances dispensed with, or diminished at least, ically beneficial to mankind? Are they really blessings, or may it not. turn out after all that many of them are injurious rather than bene ficial, and will not the tendency of such as this of which we have been considering if a success, be to cause the wealth of the rich man to increase, and to sink deeper into the abyss of poverty, the poor. 3IOUE A RO UT TIOX. IKKIGA As thero is scarcely any subject of more importance to the farmer or horticulturist than irrigation, and as most of our readers are more or less engaged in one or the other pursuit, we do not think wo need offer an apology ior recurring frequently to that subject, and we presume our readers will examine carefully all that we publish in reference thereto. We annex to these remarks an extract from the San Francisco Chronicle, and express the hope that no one will be in the least degree misled by the statements therein, for be it an derstood that here in Utah," there are but few, if any spots where crops can be produced without irrigation, the next five years that thorough work- for freight and passengers?
