BETTS'S PATENT METALLIC
CAPSULES.
IteWO were highly delighted yesterday by a visit to Mr.
re 8 Patent Metallic Capsu'e Manufactory, I, Wharf-
hto,iet, City-road. The mrtallic capsule is one of the
cr t useful and impurtAnt inventions for securing bottles
tie! introduced; it is applied to b. 4tles of every descrii.-
one 4 With the greatest facility and rapidity, and when
Istr:„4Pplied the bottle cannot be opened without de-
andiing the capsule. It is formed of the purest tin,
A 8 therefore non-corroslvo and incapable of being
e 4 "'II by acids. With regard to the strength of the
fatale, we mention the fact that we saw at the mann-
seeti_q a bottle of so la-water, the cork of which was
of red by the capsule alone, without the intervention
eolPrire. or string. The capsule was torn off, and the
" instantly flew out, the soda-water being in the

lest state of effervesence. The cork bad been thus
tZured
or some days. The process of manufacturing
tito capsules is excedingl v beautiful, and at the same
e retnarkab'y simple. We may premise that they
are
tuanufactured at about ti e rate of thirty a minute,
uf 4hhatt.hthe apparatu4 is set in motion by a steam-engine
• Th orse power.
tala„ e metal of which the patent metallic capsules are
017,11fa?tured, is the celebrated banca tin, the produce
fu,:'"e East Indies, which is entirely free from any oxi-
'lon or other sort ot corrosion. A sufficient number of
construction,
of this metal, bying• melted in a furnace of peculiar
:nstruction, is drawn off through a common tapping
tuck into a portabgc ves. el, surrounded by a charcoal fire,
b„..Preserve the •intensity of the heat, and conveyed on a
aniature railway, an I cast, en a metallic platform, into
nTkra*, preparatory to being rolled. The bands are then
ReYed to the rolling, or laminating mill, to which, as
IRAte other machinery, motion is y a
Cerhil steam-engine. This mill comprises severalsets
%et, rollers, each reducing the ribband of metal, to which
thinel,first has given a newiorm, little by little, until it is
Barreluh for the subsequent operations, and at the
tji time giving to one side of the ribband a brilliant
41:1„(4 ,uniform poli,h. The metal,• now wound up into
oitiaular and extensive roil., is taken to the cutting ma-
e. There the machinery grips one end of a coil,
Without any aid from the workman, cuts it into
eular discs, suitable in diameter to the capsules in-
n t.) be produced from it, and continues to make
i
ribb d"liver them until the whole coil of metallic
00, aed is expended, when another coil is supplied. This
Wration is som, hat, similar to the process used at the
11:1t in the preliminary work of coining; but the motion
tsii Infinitely more rapi.l, the discs being cut and carried
iitnreugh aith such sp..eil that it is impossible to keep
intoe v`itli, or count them. These discs are now dropped
I a hopper, from which they pass into a recess, where
"tiger or stamp, I.rips each into a partially formed
50t)..,'111". By the in xt operation, which is perfectly self-
and exhibits cii application of the eccentric
„_ exceedingly be:aitilut and novel, the capsule is taken
ho-
rs the first of thirteen stamps, or plunges, placed ho-
aZitellY, and to which, forward, receding, and lateral
reee.ll is alternately given ; and the capsule, having thus
pa,atvld a partial elongation or improvement in form, is
of the
on to the second, and so on, one by one, to each
a ...‘e thirteen stamps, until it is delivered by the last in
fitgect State, having embossed upon it the name of the
cont "Y Whom it is to be used, with a description of the
Protect. etas of the bottle or other vessel it is intended to
„ It will be readily understood that each stamp
an that all
presses against a corresponding mould or di.: ;
all have capsules upon them at the same time,
r various stages of progression. The precision
to wuhwhich these stamps pass on the capsules from one
the other, anl, in the intervals, perform their own im-
nit'lMO portion of the work—is another almost marvel-

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
EGIIAM RAC ES—TUESDAT.
EgllqM is now so complete ly out of the world, and
the means of ils inhabitants, for the purposes of sport,
so contracted, that it is surprising, not that the races
should be curtailed, but that there should be any races
at all. The loss of the income hitherto derived from the
gamblir, booths increases our surprise, and almost
raises the question whether the exertions of the inhabi-
tants, without more powerful assistance from the neigh-
bouring gentry, will be sufficient to avert the fate that
the diversion of traffic into new channel,,' and other
causes not worth inquiring into, have entailed upon meet-
ings that once stood high in public estimation. Of the
meeting that commenced yesterday under the stew-
ardship of Captains Bastard and Martin, it is un-
necessary to speak at length ; if the prizes were
deficient in value and importance, they had I
the recommendation of quantity, and had greater
publicity been given them, would, we doubt not,
have attracted a much larger attendance. It is due
to the Committee to state that their arrangements on the
Course were made with a commendable regard to the
accommodation and amusement of the visitors, and that,
with one exception, they were carried out in a creditable
manner by Mr. Cox, the newly-appointed Clerk of the
Course ; the exception was a want of attention to the
usual allowance of time between the heats, so much lati-
tude being taken that the racing was not brought to a
close until seven o'clock. But for this drawback, the day's
sport, if not of first quality, was calculated to give satis-
faction to a company not particularly distingue, nor suf-
ficiently numerous to be profitable to the booth and stand
proprietors. The following are particulars of
The Gold Cup of 80/., the winner to be sold for 6001.,

laria, and 7 to 2 agst Campanero. Campanero and
Pergolaria went in advance at a strong pace to the turn,
where the former, who was rather impetuous, ran out to
the right, Lord Exeter's mare following him. Pine
Apple and Moustache, keeping straight, went on toge-
ther to the first gap, where Campanero and the mare
joined them, and the four ran in company to the three-
quarters of-a-mile post ; Campanero then took a decided
lead, made the rest of the running, and won easy by two
lengths. Pine Apple and Moustache were beaten off at
the distance, and Gaper never had a chance in any part
of the race.
