This led him to a train of thought, in reference to the practical applica- tion of steam as a first mover. The result of his specula- tions obscurely exhibited in his " Century of Inventions" successfully wrought out by Sir Samuel Moreland, Newcomen an...d Cawley, Beighton, Boulton and Watt, and others, has at length terminated in that noblest example of mechanical ingenuity, as it now exists the STEAM ENGINE.
