[The history of the manufacture of silk in England hasPeculiar associations with the town of Derby. Until thecommencement of the eighteenth century, England wasdependent entirely upon Italy for thrown silk for thePurposes of the weaver. Machinery made at that time inEngland failed to accomplish the manufacture satisfac-torily. a Mr. Lombe went to Italy , succeeded by artificegaining admission to the mills, and gained an entire“Wight into the method of manufacture. Escaping at thehazard of his life, he returned to England; erected a large“Ml on the Derwent, near Derby, where the manufac-ture was shortly established, and soon attained greatProsperity. The machinery now employed for this pur-pose is 0 f great ingenuity, and exhibits the peculiar
characteristics of the mechanical workmanship of GreatBritain.—R. E.]

91 Cowslade & Lovejoy, Reading, Berks —Inventors.
Self-inking platen hand-printing press, consisting of anadaptation of an inking apparatus to the ordinary press.By one turn of a handle attached to a spindle, the carriageand tympan are rolled simultaneously in opposite direc-tions, the type receiving ink at one end of the platen, andthe tympan the blank sheet at the other. A reversedaction of the spindle brings them together, beneath theplaten, there to receive the impression. The printedsheet is freed from the form by springs attached to thetympan, which rises with the platen.
