COLOURS.—Mr. Adams,
of Philadelphia,
has invented a machine by which any variety of colours are printed
at one impression. The plan is somewhat like that of the rulingf
machine. The ink fountain is divided into sections, capable o
enlargement or diminution, or variety of arrangement at pleasure.
This is a very valuable discovery; for until now it has been neces-
sary to take an Lulpreaoloa 10: each colour.
