MIR. ELVES,

WIN III " ist's
The migcr, John Elves, Esq who would
starve himself to save sixpence, was man
who frequently hazarded sums al the gam
ing table. Few men, according to his own
acknowledgment, had played deeper than
himself, or with more varied success. lie
once played two days aud night without
intermssion and the room being small
one, the party were nearly up to their knees
IN cards. He lost some thousands at that
sitting aud the duke Of Northumberland
was of the party, who would never quit
a table where any hope Of winning remain
ed.
II Nh Elves lad received all he won,
he would have been the rlchor for his gam
Ing propeusllics buI many sums were ne
yer lquidated, and thus he became great
loser by play. The theory which he pro
fessed, That ii was impossible To ask
genlemon for money" which he perfectly
| confirmed by his practice; and he never vi
oIaled this feeling 10 the last hours Of his
life.
II is curious TO remark how at this peri
| cd Of hls lile be contrived to mingle small
Attempts atsa,llg, with objects of the most
| unbornded dissipation. After sitting up n
whole night at play for thousands, with the
most fashionable and prof gate men Of the
time, amid splendid rooms, gilt sofas, wax
| lights, aud walters attendant on his call, he
would walk out about four in the morning,
mol toward home, bat into Smithfeld, 10
meet his own cattle which were coming to
market from Thaydon-hil, farm of his
in Essex There would this same man
forsetful of the scenes he had just left,
stand, in the cold or rain, hags ing with a
carcass butcher Jo' a shilling!
Mr.. Elves made frequent excursions to
New market but he never engaged on the
turf On one of these visits, Lord Abing-
don, who was slightly known to Mr.. Elves
had made match for seven thousand gai.

Obliged 10 forfeit, from an inability TO pro
duce the sum, though the odds were great

made him AN offer of the money, which h,

CANALS.

The northern canal, Of New York, is
now IN operation. The receipt of tolls
at Whitehall, alone, is said to be about
500 dallars per day. Great quantities
of Champlain lumber are moving on to
market
That part of the Erie canal which is
completed is thronged with boats, pass
ing s re-passing, with valuable cargoes.
About an hundred boats arrive every
week at Udca-for tire week ending
June ), 90 boats, with 1860 bbls. OF
flour, 1856 do. salt, 245 do. ashes, 116
do. pork, 10 DO. oil--45G7 bush. wheat;
1915 gals. whisl1ey, with great guam
titles of other articles.
A large number of persons are at work
on the sections Of the canal yet to be
completed.
The rout Of canal, to be called the
Niagara canal, has been explored and
leveled. 1t is to extend from the site of
old tort Schloser to the vicinity of Lew
istown, and, when completed, will ope n
amayiaation to lakes Erie and Ontario,
A company has been incorporated to
accomplish this important work, and it
is intimated that they will commence 1t
in the present season
The Union canalin Pennsylvania pro-
ceeds rapidly-we think we have heard
it mentioned that 5000 men are at work
on it, The Schuylltill navigation COM
Pany are pushing on their works with
the greatest energy They have $500
laborers. Iii believed that it will be SO
far completed this season as to make a
slack-water navigation from Philadel-
phia to Reading--the seat of govern
ment of the rich county of Berl5s.
The route of the Delaware and Chesa-
pealle canal is not yet determined but
The stock supposed necessary to effect it
has been subscribed
We have much talk about canals in
Marytand but as yet talk only. How
ever, there is hope that we shall also DO
something after while.

From CarrGco6 by the arrival at Eew-Toril
OF the schr. Hippomens Capt Bourne, IN II
days from Curracoa, the editors of the Com

that place to the 1st inst. We extract the fol-

have experienced another reverse.
1t was reported at Curacao, that during
the engagement of Laguira, between the Span

prudent not to remain longer at Los Taqnes,

discontinue left Pada no other resource than
10 retire with the remainder of his vessels to
Punta Palma, where he remained according to
the last accC UNITS, with the Spanish naval force
OF Maracaybo in bis front, which is superior in
number. From this it is thought that the III
terror results will not be favorable to Padilla
and that he can only save himself by another

and get out to sea.

Dear Sir, Winchester, June Il, 1928.
Having desire to give every aid in
my power for the improvement Of cotton
factories, I Will thank you to insert the
following for their benefit
To attach cloth to iron rollers, take
the roller and heat it to about $50 de-
gFees Of Fahrenheit then rub it over
gum shellac, viii melt on it like wax !;
while in this state apply the cloth to the
roller, and when it is cold it will stick
perfectly fast
.4aotber acay--Take white lead,
ground in faxseed oil; add a sufficient
quantity Of copal varnish to form stiff
point; then take piece Of muslin large
enough to so twice round the roller :;
THIS muslin must be sized over with thin
glue or paste, and laid aside to dry
Then lay thick ceat Of paint on the
roller where you intend the cloth to go,
and when it has been on an hour, put
on the above described muslin, say once
round on the point without glue, and the
second round to be pasted or glued TO
the first round Of the muslin this gives
the first round an Opportunity of fasten-
ing to the paint, while the second round
is held by the glue This is the founda-
ton for the cloth, which is easily glued
to the muslin, and viii save the trouble
OF drilling holes through the iron rollers,
as now practised, and likewise do away
the bussing of rollers wildwood.
"A size for The leather on the rollers.
Take II grains gum dragon
10 do. isingIass
s or ounces water
when dissolved, to be applied to the lea
Their on the rollers this fills the leather,
and prevents the cotton from tapping.
This size is better for the muslin than Ell
Their glue or paste, if the muslin be per-
fectly saturated with it, and when near
ly dry ironed smooth.
Yours, sc. WIN. A. BAKER.
GSince receiving the foregoing, Mr..
Collinge has handed US the following me-
thod olcovering the rollers with leather,
without which the Improvement is not
complete
In the fall Of 1919, happened in at
book-bindery in Winchester, while the
binder was covering some books with
leather; by which | noticed the usual
method of shaving the edges Of
the skins t, make them lie smooth
and close to the pastcboards at
the sides and ends. The thought in
SANITY occurred TO me that my cotton
factory drawingro!lers might be cover
ed with leather and Tapped by shaving
in a similar way, which would be much
better than the old way Of stitching. !
afterwards brought up roller, and
desired the binder to cover It fer me in
he way then directed, which he dil.
Mr. Bakers size was afterwards applied,
and the invention found Of great utility.
