DOMESTIC MANUFACTURES.

The Utica Sentinel states, that there
are now in Oneida county eleven cotton
Factories. Eight thousand seven hun
dred and seventy spindles, are constant
ly running, and many more are shortly
to be put in motion. Without increas-
ing the water power, or erecting any
new buildings, these factories are capa-
Bile of running $4,000 spindles. Some
of the factories have erected the cast
iron Power Looms, but as yet most OF
the weaving is done by hand. The ia
brics made are shirtings, sheetings,
stripes, checks, ginghams, broad and
narrow tickings and calicoes. There
are three Woolen Factories; the Clin-
ton, Oldenvarneveldt, and the Oriskany,
which do much business these are all
profitable establishments, and the last
mentioned extensively employed. .,

recently commenced in the village OF

NEW PATENT GRAIN MILL.

Among the improvements, which the
genius of our country frequently exhlb-
bits, the new grain mill of Messrs. job n
and David Hascalls, of lie Roy, N. Y.
claims, ard will receive the attention and
patronage of the country. With one
fourth the expense, and with less than
fourth OF the power required to put IN
operation a run of stones in common
Touring mill, this mill of the Messrs.
Hascalls, may be erected and will grind
three bushels of any grain in an hour.
Its usefulness consists in its simplicity,
ease of molten and cheapness. 1t may
be erected and put in successful opera
ton on small brooks of one horse pow
er. A man can turn the mill with ease
and grind with considerable rapidly.
With these advantages in its favor over
the common grain mill, it must be i'm
portant to any section of the country
destitute of water for grist mills; and it
is an object worthy the attention OF the
distiller, the brewer and the farmer,
who feed large quantities of grain, as its
expense is small and can be made
to break the grain to any degree Of
fineness and uniformity.
In describing the construction of this
mill, we cannot do better than to adopt
the description contained in the patent
granted by the United States to the
Messrs. Hascalls: A frame about three
feet wide, four feet long and four feet
high is erected; al or near the top of
the frame stone is placed, say two feet
square and eight inches thick, secured in
horizontal position, this is called a
bed stone ; through the centre of this
stone is an aperture considerably larger
at the bottom than at the top, say eigh-
teen inches at the bottom and six or
seven at the top, some distance beneath
the centre of this aperture, in horizon
tie position is bridge tree, morticed at
both ends into posts standing in the
frame, in such manner that one end
may rise and fall while the other is Sc
cured to its place by pin on this bridge
tree, directly beneath the centre of the
aperture is the bed stone, the foot OF
spindle rests in box in the usual man
ner Immediately above the foot of this
spindle trundle head is affixed into
which cog wheel plies some distance
above the trundle head; upon the spin
die stone is affixed called a runner
this stone is so shaped as perfectly to
fill the aperture of the bed stone, falling,
however, at the same time an inch or
two below the bed stone, and turns into
bras box fitted into piece of timber.
The dress ofthe stones is in spiral lines
running contrary ways SO as to cut like
other mill stones, and will have to be
deepest at the top, unless the stones are
so bosomed as otherwise to receive the
grain. The grain is received from a
hopper, and the -four discharged from
the stones as in other mills. d ra

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SPECTATOR.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SPECTATOR.
DEAR SIR-I am of the opinion that
prcfane swearing is great sin, and that
" because OF swearing the land mourns. !"
It is very strange thing indeed, that men
of good sense, and in other respects po-
lite and genteel, should indulge in this
shameful vice, when there is no shadow
Of advantage attending it. l do not know
that any Of your readers are profane
swearers; but hope few hints against
so base practice, in your useful paper,
may not be without some good effect.
The following observations and anec-
dotes are taken from the works of the
Rev. c. Buck. Give them an insertion,
and oblige SUBSCRIBER.
There is something so low, vulgar,
and wicked in swearing, that it is sur
prising that men who wish to be consi-
dered as wise and polite, should be found
SO much in the habit Of it. 1t is not,
however, peculiar to the inferior circles
Of life, brt prevails among the great and
honorable, so called. Wise and suitable
Yeproof Of this sin have, however, had a
good effect, as the following instances
will shcw:

APHORISMS.

b
The opinions of men are perpetually
at the mercy of their passions. Esteem
and contempt run parallel with love
and hatred; and it is as hard to find
merit in foe, as to discover defectsin a
friend, or still more in ourselves. ~
To be content with little, andto Sc
cure that little by the exertions Of use
full industry, is the only certain way Of
becoming independent. Many of the
most illustrious Greeks, and all the Ro-
mans of the first ages, were rendered
superior to the allurements of prosperi-
ty and the threats of adversely, by the
independence of mind founded on the
abstemious virtues.
An excessive love of applause cor
rupts the Judgment, and lays a man
open to the ridicule of the malignant,
and the articles Of the designing.
The desire of pleasing all mankind is
fertile source of weakness and muta-
bility in some of the best dispositions.
In the course of our duties we are almost,
as frequently called upon to undergo
the censure and enmity of mankind, as
to cultivate their friendship and good
opinion.
