MANUFACTURE OF STARCH, &C.—Amidst the dis-
mal state of business which has long existed here, and the
gloomy forebodings which are hourly poured forth as to the fu-
ture prospects of the town, it has afforded us very great pleasure
indeed to witness this week the various processes of a new ma-
nufacture which has been introduced, and to all appearance
with great success, while almost every other branch around us
is languishing under depression. By some discoveries made a
few mouths back by Messrs. grown and Poison, they were in-
duced to attempt the manufacture of starch and arrow-root, en a
principle new to themselves. It being an important part of their
business to use a considerable quantity of starch themselves, they
had ample opportunities of testing the quality of an article of
that description, which they commenced making, and the de-
cided saperiority which they soon discovered it to possess, in-
duced them to offer it in the market. Like every other new
ankle, some little difficulty was at first felt in obtaining cus-
tomers, but these gradually and speedily diminished, and al-
though not more than three months have elapsed since the first
preparation of the article for sale, we were gratified and sur-
prised, on our inspection of the work, to find upwards of 20
persons employed in the department of making up the packages
alone. By referring to an advertisement en the subject, it will
be observed that both the starch and ar:ow-root of Messrs.
Brown and Poison have obtained the approval of one of the first
chemists in the country, as well as of many persons of practical
experience.—Paisley Paper.

to leave us, and for ever; and this will be the last night but five
of his appearance.
