From the New-London Advocate.
The following is a pery cheap, easy and
speedy method for making the uery first
rate VINEGAR.
Take any quantity you please Of the
first ripe apples that fall, aud which are
always worth the least for cider, which
should either be ground very coarse in a
mill, o., what is equally good, bruised in
barrel with common FOUNDER. Then
Iof the coarse ground or bruised apples,
put layer of about twn inches deep into
the bottom of clean cask; then layer
Eof clean straw OF about the same thick
ness, and SO on till the cask is fuli, obser-
wing to press the straw and apples well
Together with the hand while filling the
eask. Then take one fourth part as much
water as the same apples would make Of
cider, (if ground and pressed, and pour
lit a little at time into the cask Of apples
and straw. Let it stand two or three
hours, aud then draw it off very slowly,
just as you would water through ashes for
making lye. And being thus drained off,
the same liquor is then TO be run through
three or four times day, for two days
successfully. 1t is then to be put into a
clean cask, where it may work, standing
10 the sun. In short time it will become
very fine sharp vinegar. w. b.
EXTENSIVE & USEFUL EsTABLIsHMENT.
Ii gives us great pleasure to be able to
announce 10 the public, that company OF
geDilemen from Boston have been engaged
the present season in erecting an exten-
siye Dye-House Oh Staten Island, which
is now ia such state offorwardness. that
it will go into operation 10 a few days.
We visited Staten-Island few days since,
and took survey Of the works which
have been erected, aud of the machinery
now fitting up. The building is situated
upon the north side Of the island, within a
few rods Of what is termed the White
Mill, about two miles distant from the seal
of the Weep President. The dye-house is
IS feet by SO, with Ia feet posts. Twelve
coppers are set, which will contain up
wards of $500 gallons, besides seven cop
pers for fancy dying; large reservoirs.
boilers, &c. &c. together with every
other convenience for dying goods of all
descriptions, from whole pieces down to
single garments.
The building for finishing goods is 100
feet by 80. with 20 feet posts, divided into
commodious rooms, and every thing ap-
pears exceedingly well calculated to dis,
patch business in an excellent manner,
with great ease and facility.
We learn from the proprietors, Messrs.
William and George M. Barrett, VIM.
Tileston, and Samuel Whittemore,) that
the establishment will be similar in all
respects, to the celebrated one owned by
William Barrett Of Boston, which is uni
versally acknowledged to be superior 10
extent and usefulness to any Of the kind
10 the United States. The following are
among the articles which will here after
