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 establishnqpnt. and for directions in its application,
apply to WILLIAM ROWETT, Commercial-buildings, Water-
street, Agent for Liverpool; or JOHN BIGHAM, Agent for
Great Britain and the Colonies.
N.B--It has been ascertained that one man working the
Portable Saw can do the work of a steam-engine of one-horse
power for a limited period.

THE promoters of this important enterprise have
been engaged nearly four years in acquiring proper infor-
mation of all kinds necessary to the development of this great
commercial project.

. - - --
They have also completed their political arrangements wits
the government of the Republic within whose territory the
ship-passage will doubtless be constructed. This latter occu-
pation has occupied not less than two years, and is now very
perfect and very valuable. _

- An extensive combination of interests, in a principle purely
cosmopolitan, has not been left unfinished. Commissioners
are at this moment busy at work in the capital of the United
States, within the most important of the German States, for
emigration purposes ; in France, for providing, in connexion
with popular patronage, the highest scientific assistance; and
in England the plans for a leading movement are nearly ma-
tured.
