to the prese.rvntiuti ofthe bees fJt)l‘l1 that de-
strtietive and deadly enemy. the \\'t)l‘tlt, an end
which it is believed has never before been fully
accomplished. It is composer] of several shift-
itig compartments or drawers, to either or any
nutnber of wbieli the bees may be confined at
pleasure, and on either becoming filled with
honey it can be taken out and the honey remov-
ed without itjuiy tour from the bees. The
comp."-.rtmcnts are made with oblique bottoms
with an npperture ranging through each from
the top to the bottom. This leaves no lodgetiient
for the worm except a receptacle at the bottom
which is filled with aslics, which in a short time
deprives him of life. This hive is believed to
be superior to any other which has been intro-
duced. and is sold at the low price of $4 for an
individual right and hive.
The best evidence ofthe merits of the hive
is the general approbation which it niects with
wherever introduced. During the short time
since the pate-nt was secured, the subscriber
has put tip some 30 or 40in thc'town of Red-
ding, where persons wishing to obtain informa-

lowing extract from the speech of Robei't Grieg.
Esq. at a. great meeting of cotton manufacturers
at Manchester in 18-11, has been quoted recently
in the Boston Daily Advertiser. Mr. Grieg is
himself one of the largest cotton spinners in the
world:
There are in the United States 900 cotton
mills; a capital of .s€l0,000,000 sterling
($50,000,000) is invested in the cotton man-
ufacture; they have nearly 40,000 looms.
and produce 25,000,000 yards ti year. And
[ can also state, on the very best authority,
that the Lowell Mills, which consume G0,
000 bales (out of 300,000, the total consump-
tion) produce a greater‘ quantity of yarn
and cloth, by each spindle and each loom,
in a given time, than is produced by any
other mills in the world.
They turn off fifty yards at day in their
looms at Lowell, and we know that no
catarrh. inflamiiiation ofthe throat. and all those,
painful an:l dangerous diseases yield at once to;
this mild vegetable remedy. lf mercury has)
been taken, this balsam will counteract itsl
effects and restore the organs to their proper
tone, it is tlaily curing most important cases.
Coughs and Colds should not be allowed to
settle on the lungs. as it sows the seeds ofthatt
fell destroyer. Consumption. Coughs which have)
been allowed to run, even for years, have been,
cured in two or three clays when this excellcntl
vegetable has been used.
Consumption and raising of blood cured.
I hereby certify that last Au,tzust.1 was at-)
tacked with a violent and profuse licrrorrage)
from the lungs, severe Cough with the expecte-
ration of innch mucus. pains in the head, sore-1
ness in the chest. and other distressing symptoms;
I bought a bottle of Dr. Tayiors Balsam ofl
Liverwort, from I175 Bowery, wiiich under the
blcssiiig of Providence, gave me immediate
relief. 1!S effect has been such in my case, that
I cannot praise it too highly.

Noiwalk, May 9, 1843. 19
English mills produce any thing like that
quantity. To be sure, they work rather
longer hours than we do here. They work
at Lowell 73 L2 hotirs a week, in other
mills in America about 75 1-2 hours. Igot
a return only last week from a friend of
mine, who has been at Lowell, of the work
performed in the last new mills which have
been built there. We are familial‘ with the
coarse drills that we all used to make im-
tnense quantities of at one time to supply
paiittiloon stuffs for the India and China
niarliets, and now they are used all over
America. and which. not many yearsago, the
house in which lam concerned, used to make
and ship )o a" great extent. The new mills at
Lowell producetbose 9.13] 2d per lb.froni the
cotton, 6 1-4 cents, (in the other mills 7 cents)
which. with the cotton, brings the cost to
9 l-2d per pound for those article-s. 1
As to the advantage. they have over us, I
do not exaggerate when I state itat upwards
of ltl per pound in cotton alone; the. freight
to the American mills being about half the
average freight to England, and there is our
duty and other expenses. lo the concern in
which lain intercsttrd, the extra tax paid,
owing to the high price of flour, amounts to
a tax‘of.£l,000 a year upon otir mills as
compared with their mills in America.-
[Hear] Tlir~n their water power costs at
the highest rate but.£3 10s per horse power;
while. the lowest rate in this country is .£l2
per horse power. I have not the smallest
doubt, indeed Iain prepn red to pr0t'P. that
they can produce coarse domestic drills and
everything of that kind. at least 1 1 2d.
Cheaper than we can. [E-Iear.] They have
beaten us out ofthe India and Chinese mar-
ket; ofcourse they produce for all their
consumption, and after a little while, I have
little doubt, that we shall have tlietn
ll1C*‘ll very largely here. [Hear]
The last thing lllt'V will do is to attack
the eiiet'nj.' in his owri catnip; bull am quite
sure wesball see it by anl h v; of that 1
think there c.-in lie no doubt. The rate of
wages is consi-fer.-tbly higher there: but
the great obstacle to the rapid spread of pro-
tlittrtion in the Auiei'ican tnills is the tLl|fl1L‘lllly
of gettitig more spinners. VVht-n they get
selfacting mules that tlifficulty vanishes.——
We must make tip our minds to preptire for
the loss of tbesc‘iti:ti-let-t.s; it is of no use to
disguise the fact; it is of no use any of us
intro-
sri ‘mg, ‘f can hold otit as long‘ as my neigh-
bor: there is t'iot.liin.{-fut‘ it but to push the
tvealtei‘ ones to the wall.’ 'f'h:it is an idli-
and selfish way of expi'cssion,_(t.o say the-
worst of it,)—wl-rich I regret too many of
us liave been iudtilge:f in. l_l.'1t-‘:li'] Let us
l.‘tl\'t‘ care that the strong be not also pushed

his appearance as imposing in the extreme.
He is 0 feet 2 inches in height, finely form-

A Needle Magztfaclure —Among the
curious things which I was periititted to ex-
amine at f—favet'strtiw, nothing awkcned so
much interest as the mashing-ry for inaking
needles. Let every good housewife iwjoicc
with me. ‘We are no longer to be depend-
ent on foreign countries for an ttttit'l‘.*- of
such prim-.try necessity as needles. This, 1
ill!) told is the first attempt of the kind in
A int-rica, and is now almost perfected. I saw
needles in various stages ufthe processes by
which tl cy are made front the wire, prepared
on the same premises; and was surprised
at the facility afforded by the curious‘ ma-
chinery which human ingenuity has invent-
ed to lessen the mannual labor, and multi-
ply the results of the numerous operations.
"be wire is first ctit into leiigtlis which will
make two needles each. Tue. depressions
where the eyes are to be made, and when-
the grooves are found in the finished attielt-,
are S[..ttllp(’(1 in both needles by it single stroke
of a machine, with which a single band can
turn off 30,000 in a day. ft is then turned
over to a boy, who, with another machine,
punches the eyes, and again arir,-ther sepa-
rates the two needles, and smooths away any
irregularities left or made bytbe forrnct‘ pro-
cesses. But: the eye of the needle is still
rough, and niust be bored by another process,
which leaves it so smooth as not to cut the
l.ll!‘t'llt'l. After this, a man grinds it handful
at a time on a common grindstotie, holding
them in his left hand giving them a perpetual
rotary iitotiou with the right, so that, when
the operation is finished, they must be round
as well as sharp. Ttiey are now to be "case
hardened,” and finally burnished, all which
is done by simple process, in which immense
nuutbers can be Sl]l)jt‘Cl.€(.l to the operation at
the same time.

Their dresses we-i'e exactly as one would see

how ranch liappicr and merrier a party

A LONG SHORT CAKE.
Bread stuffs form an important item in the
rapidily growing commerce of this city. To
illustrate the extent oftbis branch ofour trade
we have made a small calculation which.
will be found to be entirely correct.
During the last week in May there was
sent from B:-fl".tlo via the cana f, sixty one-r
tbousand and nenety-seven barrels of flour,
and sixty-eight thousand six hundred and
fifty-six bushels of wheat. Allowing each
bushel oftbe latter to make forty-five ponittls=
of flour, and each barrel of the former to
contain one hundred and ninety-six. pounds,
the total of pounds was fifteen ‘millions sixtv'
four thousand five hundred and thirty-two’!
During the same period there was sent from
this city, along with this immense quantity
of flour, thirteen hundred and forty-eight.
thousand two hundred and thirteen pounds
of butter and lard. There was also sent
over two and a quarter millions of pounds
of pearlash and other ashes. Now, if
the good people on the road will furnish
proper ‘wetting’ and the place to bake it in,-
we will put two pounds of good flotir in each
foot of cake, and laid, butter and saltiratus
enough to niatrh. and treat them with neon-
tinuous Short Cake fourteen bimdred twenty
six thousand miles and one hundred and
eighty rods long.
One end oftbis cake might be placed in
t.be capital of Missouri, and the other would
not only reach to Boston, but it would ‘stick
out’ over the Atlantic some two hundred
miles. Ofthis all the people of the United
States might eat and be filled without a mi!’-
ucle, bt-sidts giving the fish of the great
deep a ‘glorious nibble.’
As an adenda to the above, it will be seen
that within the last 24 hours there have ar-
rived in port, over 25,000 barrels of flour,
and 33.000 bushels of wheat and other arti-
cles in proportion.—Bufi'a.lo Com. Adv.
