30 De Fontaine Moreau, Peter A., 4 South Street,Finsbury —Importer and Proprietor.

Novel apparatus for the working of spindles, withoutstraps or cords, for spinning all fibrous substances, andadapted for all spinning machines. The advantage is saidto consist in the suppression of cords and straps, in theProduction of a regular and invariable rotation to thespindles, and consequently a regular tension to thethreads. The friction and, consequently, the wear andtear, are said to be diminished, and less than the usuala 'nonnt of power to be required.—Patented.

Apparatus for replacing the Jacquard machine forWeaving figured fabrics and tissues; composed of a cylin-der, provided with moveable pegs. When the cylinderrotates, the hammer, in contact with the pegs, is thrown“ a ck, and raises the threads of the warp: the apparatushas only 120 pegs, but can have any required number,ft is stated that, by this invention, the cards so expensiveP t^ 16 usu£d J acl l ua r i l machine are dispensed with.—

^Apparatus for extracting ores from mines and coal-pits,the object of this apparatus is said to be to replace allmds of machines hitherto used, and especially the ropes,n h to economise time.—Patented in England.

Elevator syphon apparatus, to work which an elevation* at least 33 feet is required: it is stated that the watera ken at the curve of the syphon can be employed withouthy expense, as a motive power.

41 Barlow, Charles, 89 Chancery Lane —Importer.Patent machine, for uniting by stitches all kinds of

woven goods, and useful in making articles of wearingapparel. Two distinct threads are used, one of whichappears at the back, and the other at the front of thefabric, so that each stitch forms an independent fastening.The seam thus produced is firm and regular.

42 Sutcliffe, R., Idle, near Bradford— Inventor.

Patent spinning frame, for spinning and doubling cotton,&c. The part patented is represented in the annexedcut. The dead-spindle, or stud C, is fixed to the rail II,and. traverses in the rail H. In the top of the stud acavity is drilled, and in this cavity a small cylindricalspindle 13, revolves. This small spindle is attached to

the flyer A, the flyer is drawn by the bobbin P, thebobbin is carried upon a revolving tube D, and the re-volving tube is driven by a band from the cylinder. G isthe eye of the flyer, which carries the thread. To pre-vent the small spindle and flyer from being jerked orraised from its place, it is made thicker at the lower end,and a brass cap Z, fitted accurately to the spindle, isscrewed on the top of the stud, and thus the spindle iskept securely in its place. In this cap the patent con-sists. The drag is produced by the friction of the smallspindle against the stud, and by the resistance of theatmosphere against the wings of the flyer.

[The objects attained by this process are a high degreeof velocity, and a regularity in the tension or drag, so asto produce perfect evenness in the yarn. This frameworks with a speed of upwards of 6,000 revolutions perminute.—G. T.]
