Domestic R0ving q Spinning
Macbiue.

THE subscribers have purchased the patent right
of building, venting, and using the above ma
chine, in the counties of Newport and Bristol, X. l.
Its most important advantages and usefulness may
be stated in few words
First I, possesses the principle of roping and
spinning the merno and other wool on the
chine with great exactness and remarkable facility
Seeond-It will spin the common wool directly from
the roll without roping sufficiently fine tor common
broadcioths.
7nird-It viii spin cotton, when roped or properly
carded. AS fine and even the common wheel
with cqualIy increased advantage.
Foprth-it is very convenient for doubling and
twisting heads, cotton or yarn OF any description,
with .,st ,nshIng expedition.
Fifh-Its operation is not half so laborous as The
Engllsh Jenny. and it is easi, managed by girls or
children, via immense profit
strth--it.will prodace saving over the common
wheei Of from 20 80 dollars in the manufacture OF
every huutred yards of cloth.
SeUenfA--It superce6es the great expense of the
tpo EygiSh machines, it performs the opera
lions oi the BiVy aud Jeapy.
< let these facts be dul, considered by csudid and
Liberal mHds, together with The vast saving OF time,
labor trouble, and the expense of board and wages,
when person will perform the service OF five or
SIX in the usual method Of spinning, and but few
w'il hesitate IN procuring The Domestic Rorer and

terprize, and stimulate the female part of the
mni,y with each other in habits of nousry,as
with 25 or 30 spDdles an sctve gi will furnish yarn
sufficient to keep2 or looms constantly in opera
ton. and earn from 30 to 80 dollars per month.
1t may be observed that one of the above machines
occupy but little more space than common bee, ,and
can be removed with ease Let every farmer encour-
age the growth of sheep, and promote American man
uiactures. let The splendid hablation well as the
humble cottage become LITTLE Factory; and in this
way our country will become huA independent. If
individuals not able let neighborhoods join in the
