opening, G, for the emission of the heat, and another, H, for the escape of the smoke, surrounding at the same time this chamber with a second, also of iron, a receptacle, A, is formed, in which the air may be rarefied, and conducted by a passage, BI, into a canal or flue, B, which has its orifice at the superior part of the chimney, and by a circular passage, 0B, into a second flue, C, which has its orifices at the lower part of the chimney. It is by means of the openings at the two extremities of the chimney that it is possible either to use the apparatus for the purpose of heating or for that of ventilation. The two orifices of the tube, C, are furnished each with a valve, D and F, which are so managed and connected, that when one is opened, the other is closed, and vice versd. If the valve, D, which communicates with the chamber, be closed, and the valve, F, which communicates with the flue, be open, the atmospheric air will enter the orifice, B, and becoming rarefied, will pass at once into the chimney. If, on the contrary, the valve, D, be open, and E closed, the atmospheric air will enter by the orifice, C, and becoming rarefied in the iron chamber, will pass off by the superior part of the chimney. Thus, by means of the two valves, D and E, either an ascending current of hot air, or a descending one of cold air, can be obtained at pleasure in the same tube, B. A careful examination of these stoves leads us to the opinion that they will effect the object contemplated by their inventor. Already, we are informed, have orders been received for their erection in various large rooms, and, amongst others, in the council-room of the College of Surgeons, in which the stove was tested some time since, at one of the College some. an
