Th&se Governors have now becn sold in this market for scyeral years, and wherever once iutroduced and made known, are invariably sought after, are regarded ag the perfect regulator. Tbey are in the Eastern States fast displacing all other Steam Governors, and They are manufactured by Messrs {Gorchur & Robertson, practical engineers, who have given many years time exclusively to their manufacture and yn. The man say: After an experience of eleven years in the manufactare of the above Governor, during which time several importent improvements haye been made and two additional patents obtained, we feel justified in recommending it to all parties using Steam power, and warranting it to be the most perfect regulator in the market, The Gardner Governor ie so well known that we think it unnecessary to enterinto # detailed explanation of the principles inyolyed, or details in its construction, merely giving the lcading objects realized by thie important invention, The Governor combines with the greatest simplicity of construction, accurate regulation of speed, POSITIVE INSURANOE AGAINST ALL ACCINENTS LIABLE TO OCOUR FROM SLIPPING OR PARTING THE GOVERNOR GE DRIVING BELTS, and a convenient arrangement for ADJUSTING THE SPEED OF THE ENGINE WHILE IN MOTION, without change of pullies. The construction of the Governor ie extremely simple, haying no springs, inside joints, swlyeis, or parts liable to disarrangement, all the several parte are duplicates of exch other in the same series; the most skillful workmen are employed, the best material used and the machinery employed especlully adapted to their manufacture, Tbe valve is most PERFECTLY RALANCED, and the Governor Is built with a view of securing the quickest and most sensitive action possibly attainable in a steam regulator, Thus witb accurate machinery, and skilled labor, and devoting our WHOLE ATTENTION to the manufacture of THIS ONE ARTICLE, we are able to produce a perfect and reliable Governor at a low price, We do not publish any lettere of recommendations, but can give references to upwards of 5,000 PARTIES THROUGH OUT TAE UNITED SraTEs, who are using the Gardner Governor. We would especially invite the attention of steam Engine Builders to this Governor, feeling assured that they can purchase for lese than they can make an inferior article, and thereby increase the value and sales of their es. We respectfully refer to the following parties using the GanpNER GoyERNOR, and can speak understandingly of ite merits: Oakland Cotton Mills, the Selby Lead and Silver Smelting Works, L, & E. Emanuel, Yulcan Iron Works, Fulton Foundry, Levieon Bros., Cal. Jewelry Co., Pioneer Woolen Factory, D. A.
