The Legislature of New York were so fully convinced of the great utility of the invention, and of the interest the public had in its encouragement, that they made a new contract 1808) with Livingstone and Fulton, by which the term these demonstrations of animosity, the confidence of the public in her performances was increasing, and the Clermont continued to run, loaded with passengers, for the remainder of the summer. To provide accommodation for an anticipated increase of voyagers, she was enlarged in her dimensions in the winter of 1808. Fulton again renewed his experiments with his nautilus and torpedoes, but the opinion of his countrymen was as decidedly against them, as that of those persons who had witnessed his trials in France and England. Divesting his labours, of all the claim he makes for them, of being undertaken with a patriotic motive, when compared with his countryman Oliver Evans, a labourer also in the same vineyard, he falls greatly below him in practical knowledge, as well as in the power of invention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Steam Engine and Its Inventors: A Historical Sketch AS the following sketch of the history of the Steam Engine is on a somewhat different plan from most of the treatises on the same subject which have preceded it, a few words of explanation in reference to the course pursued may be desirable. No attempt is made to give an account of all the machines in which steam has been employed. The sole object aimed at is to exhibit the successive steps in the development of the cylinder and piston engine, which is the great prime mover of modern times. This engine was not origin ally a steam engine; it passed through several phases of existence in which steam gradually came to perform a more and more important part. It was not the invention of one individual, nor of one nation, nor of one age. Its growth has been a gradual and slow process; important modifications of its mechanism have been effected from time to time. No fact.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stuart's Descriptive History of the Steam Engine The wonderful increase of machinery, of all kinds, that has taken place in England during the last thirty years, having been mainly produced by those improvements made on the Steam Engine which led to its general introduction as a first mover, has conferred great interest and importance on every circumstance connected with the construction and history of that magnificent mechanism. Several treatises of great merit, describing particular engines, have been long before the public; but in none of them has the general history of improvement formed any part of the plan of their authors.
