These Machines Stund Unrivaled. For rapldly pulverizing and amalgamat!ng ores, they have nocqual. No éffort has been, or ‘will be, spared to have them constructed In the most perfect’munner, and of tho great number now In oper#tion, not one has ever reulred repairs. The constant and lacreasing demand for them Is sufiielent evidence of thelr morits, They are consiruetcd so asto apply steam directly into the pulp, or witb steam bottoms, as desired. This Amalgamator Operates as Follows: The pan being filled, the motion of the muller forees the pulp to the center, where It !s drawu down through the aperture and between tho grinding surfaces. Thence It ig thrown to the periphery !uto the quickbHvor. The curved plates again wey \¢to the center, where it pases down, and to tho clrewnference as before, Thus lt ie coitstantly assing In n regular flow between the grindIng snrlaccs and inte the quicksilver, until Ihe ore lg reduced to an Impalpable powder, aud the metal amalgamated. Setlers made on the same prinelple excel al! others.— They bring the pulp so coustantly aad perfectly In contact with quicksilver, that the particles.ara rapidly and com ¢ pletely absorbed. i : MIll men are Invited to examine these pana and setlers for themeelves, at the PACIFIC FOUNDEY, lvl San Francisco, MITCHELLS COMBINED FAUCET AND MEASURE.
