PARKER'S PATENT FOR BANDING PULLEYS.
THE Proprietors of Foundries, Cotton Factories,
Saw Mills, Corn and Rice Mills, Building and Joiners'
Establishments, and all others requiring rotary motion, are
respectfully invited to examine PARKER'S PRINCIPLE of
BANDING PULLEYS, which combines a large saving of
motive power, with an increased velocity of motion never before
obtained in limited compass, and may be applied as well to the
the first motion from the engine as to the collateral demands
upon the power, which is largely saved by avoiding the Com-
plicated Bands, Pulleys, and Cog Wheels.
The principle is applied with matchless success to Fans,
Blowers, Lathes, Winnowing and Thrashing Corn, Chopping
Hay, Grinding Malt, Circular Saws, of any required dimen-
sions •, but the most remarkable application of this invention
is to the Portable Circular Saw, which is made to perform a
variety of duties that render it the most desirable tool, and
which no mechanic will be able to dispense with. _ _ _

For the right to use this patented invention, and for the pur-
chase of the royalties of any Town, County, District, or for any
individual establishment. and for directions in its application,
Apply to WILLI A M ROW ET T, Commercial-buildings,
Water-street, who is the sole Agent for Liverpool.
NB--It has been ascertained that one man working the
ortable Saw can do the work of a steam-engine of one-horse
power fora limited period.

GREAT FIRE

AT THE
GUT T A PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS,

AND DEFEATED BURGLARIES,

ryinomAs MILNER. and SON have sincere plea-
/. sure in communicating to their Friends and the Public
the following new endorsements to the claims of their HOLD-
FAST and FIRE-RESISTING SAFES. The Fire at the Gutta
Percha Company's Works was of the most intense character,
as may well be conceived from the nature of its food, Gutta
Percha, Oil, Naptha, reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted
red-hot walls. The Safe has been most severely tried, as the
letter testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace
without a singe upon them.

" as,—We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservatiorfsd all the books and papers* contained in
the large safe you recently supplied us with, although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of
our works. This is the more remarkable, as the intense heat
has in many parts melted the outside of the safe...

" We are of opinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
this letter in any way you may wish...
