sftnuficture Of Pms-We %.
.erve il stated in the Mechanics Ga.
yette that Mr.. Whittemore, of this
civ. has SO improved the machine
for making Pins, Originally invented
by an American,) as to make from
the simple wire, SO per minute, CON-
pIete!y headed and pointed entirely
by the machine, with only one hand
to turn the crank. Great as this in
genious improvements, we learn from
the Minerva, that a native American,
who is now resident of Philadelphia,
has lately invented machine for ma
king pins, about three feet square,
(which may be worked by boy OF
IL wears old, who. without any pre-
vlous instruction, can make gu pms an
q minute being double the number
manufactured in the same space by
Mr.. Whittemore's invention. All
that is necessary in the new machine.
is to introduce the end of "a coil of wire,
and, by turning crank, the wire is
gradually drawn into the machine; il
is there cot to the proper length for
the shank of the pin; spiral head is
simultaneously foimed, aud placed on
it, afterwards both are attached firm
ly together; and, by means ola grind
stone, the point is formed, and the
pin falls out of the machine, which,
after having been submitted to the
process of whitening, is in every re
spect, like those now imported from
Great Britain.
The principle on which the two
machines are formed appears to be the
same, though it is evident that the one
invented at Philadelphia possesses a
great advantage over the other IN pro-
ducing double the quantity OF pins
This is certainly remarkable age for
inventions; and that spirit of discoye-
ry which formerly belonged in pc
culiar degree to the French nation,
and was so readily improved on by
the English seems to have been large
ly transferred to on: own couaEsymen,
whose efforts cannot fail. ere long, to
silence the calumnies ofshose who not
only denied us all literary talent but
pronounced US utterly incapable OF a
ny ingenious or useful invention.
