Abstract
ON the 30th ult. an exhibition was opened at South Kensington of appliances intended to prevent excessive production of smoke in household grates and in the furnaces and boilers of manufactories, and thus to remove from the fogs of great cities, and especially of London, one of their most offensive constituents, and that which is most potent in darkening the cities over which they spread themselves. The Exhibition is described as “international”; that title is, however, often given on rather a slender basis; and from what we can at present see, the main exhibits are British, although a few interesting objects are sent from Germany, Canada, and France.
