BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT

THE PATENTEE Begs to give Notice to
Manufacturers in general, that he has now' completed
his arrangements for Licensing his PATENT BEAM, for
the Weaving by Power, of Linen and other yarns of a similar
texture.

This Beam is calculated to remove the hitherto insur-
mountable difficulty of taking away the Cloth from the
Reed with the regularity required, and to enable these
yarns to be Woven with the Positive Taking-up Motion,
which effectually coils up the cloth as each shot of weft
is thrown in • is positive and perfectly uniform'; can be
readily varied suit any number of shots or picks; and
these are obtained with the greatest possible regularity
in " count, " without being. subject to the slightest variation,
through the negligence or inattention of the weaver.

Manufacturers will be held responsible for the payment of

ment, without an immediate settlement with the Patentee;
and all persons are cautioned against in any way infringing
on this patent, which is taken` for the protection of " a cut
or carved beam (for adapting the Positive Taking-up Motion
to the weaving, by power, of linen, and other yarns of a
similar texture,) made, either solid or hollow, of any metal,
metallic or other substance, and the principle of ne inven-
tion, and method of applying it;" otherwise the Patentee

A Railway is now in course of construction from Carlisle
to Port Carlisle, which will be completed early next year;
and which at Drumburgh, eight miles .and a-half distant
from.Carlisle, will be within thirteen miles distance from
Silloth Bay. It is proposed, with the concurrence and
under the sanction of the Port Carlisleßailway Company, to
.take advantage of this, and to construct a Floating Dock
and Harbour at Billoth Bay, and connect the same with the
Port Carlisle Railway, by a line, of Railway twelve-and-
three-quarter-miles in length, joining the Port Carlisle
Railway at Drumburgh, thus making the. whole distance
from Silloth Bay to Carlisle twenty-one miles.

A large and increasing trade is carried on by Newcastle
and the dthcr rut La uu the East Coast of England, with the
West coast of England and Ireland, which the existing Ports
on the West coasts are quite inadequate to accommodate. A
great part of the traffic is now conducted in sailing vessels
round the South of England or North of Scotland, the
former being a distance of about 1,000 miles, whilst if goods
carried across from Newcastle to Silloth Bay by railway were
shipped there, the distance to Ireland would be under 200
miles. The important and increasing City of Carlisle is now
one of the greatest railway centres of the kingdom, —the
Lancaster and Carlisle, the Caledonian, the Glasgow and
South-Western, the Newcastle and Carlisle, and the Mary-
port and Carlisle lines t all meeting there, and another line
from Hawick to Carlisle, in continuation of the North British
is also in contemplation. The projected Harbour at Silloth
Bay would be the nearest deep-sea harbour to this great
centre of 'railways, and as the Solway Frith in which it is
situated runs up so far into the land, as a glance at the Map
of England will show, the Carlisle and Silloth Bay'Railway,
with the Port Carlisle and Newcastle and Carlisle Railways
would form a direct Railway connection between the, Ger-.
man Ocean and the 'lrish Sea at the narrowest part of the
Island. The Harbour at Silloth Bay would thus afford the
readiest and best Port for the coal, coke, and manufactures'
of Newcastle and the surroundingidistrict sent to the Irish
market. Steamers would also be enabled to ply between
Silloth Bay and the ports of Liverpool, Dublin, Belfast, and
other ports, by which short and easy passages would be
afforded at regular hours, quite independent of the tides.

It.fs proposed, in the first, instance, to make a Floating
Dock, at Silloth Bay, of about four acres area, which would
serve as an Entrance Basin to Docks of a larger area, to be
constructed when the increase of trade should require them.
The Line from Silloth Bay to Drumburgh, on the Port
Carlise Railway, would pass through a fine agricultural
country, and ..a ,considerable income from local traffic and
passengers may safely be anticipated. A single line only
will be laid down in the first instance, but sufficient land
will be taken and works constructed for a double line when
the same may be found necessary. The landowners are in
general strongly in favour of the line, and some of them are
upon the Provisional Committee, and promoters of the under-
taking. The country through which the line passes is per-
fectly flat and level—there will be no heavy earthwork or
expensive works of any kind—and it is estimated that,
allowing liberally for all contingencies, the total costs of the
Railway, including the purchase of land, will not exceed
65,000, being at the rate of £5,000 per mile. Contrac-
tors of undoubted respectability are ready to undertake the
construction of the line for this sum.

The Estimates for the Dock and Harbour have been pre-
pared byafr. J. B. Hartley, of Liverpool, Hho has had great
experience in the planning and carrying out of such works.
They amount to £60,500. The total estimated cost of the
works will thus stand as follows :

Cost of Railway
Cost of Dock and Harbour
Parliamentary and Preliminary Expenses
and Contingencies

£65,000
60,600

£135,000

The sources of traffic have been carefully inquired :into,
and fully tested by persons:extensively engaged in shipping
and manufactures, and in every way competent to make a
correct estimate of the various kinds of merchandise 'that
will enter the harbour and pass over the line.

Taking into account thepresent actual traffic from Newcastle
to Ireland, now carried by a long sea voyage round the island,
and which would be diverted into the now line, together
with the local traffic, a minimum return of £2O per mile per
week may be safely calculated upon for the Railway, which,
with the receipts from the Dock Dues would yield a divi-
dend of upwards of six per cent., after allowing 50 per cent.
for working expenses.

The undertaking► has the cordial support of tho Port
Carlisle Railway Company.

Arrangements will be made with this Company, under
the sanction of Parliament, for facilitating the carriage of
goods over their line.
