Inscriptions

printed on front, below image: HIGHLY IMPROVED STEAM ENGINE, CANE MILL AND STEAM TRAIN / BY MESSRS. STILLMAN & CO., NOVELTY IRON WORKS, NEW-YORK. / AGENT AT NEW ORLEANS, E. C. STORMS. / This Engine, (the essential improvements in which are patented,) is now universally approved, and has successfully received the highest premiums of the American Institute. It is constructed upon a heavy Iron Bed, which gives it great strength and durability. The Sugar Mill is also placed upon a strong Iron Foundation, and the whole Machinery is put up without any timber foundations or framing. The Steam Kettles are simple, easily managed by Negroes, and are applicable either to clarifying, or concentrating, so that a part of the whole of the common Train of Kettles may be dispensed with and the whole carried on by the Patent Steam Process.
