IMPORTANT TO WOOLLE.N MANU-
E.ACTURERS.


Our woollen manufacture was, only
three years since, in a very imperfect
state, the best being inferior to the Sec
Ond rate manufactures Of England. The
Improvement since that time has been
very rapid, and our best manufactures
are now but little, if any, inferior TO the
same grade in Europe. 1t is Mt cessary,
however, that we should keep pace with
European improvements in fabric and
finish, OF we may again fall in the rear
To effect this object, have taken pains
to be informed, as early as possible, of
all decided improvements made in the
woollen department, from the west OF
England. On Friday last, | received in-
formation of two new processes, which
| hasten to lay before our manufacturers.
The first results in the saving of all the
oil used on wool the second lays the
nap, &c. gives polish to the face Of the
cloth, which even boiling for hours, or
subsequent teazliug, cannot remove
FThese processes are extremely simple,
and attended with scarcely any expense.
| shall give the particulars in the Ian
guage of my correspondent -
"Steam has lately been introduced to
supply the place of oil. Upon the feed
cloth, to the scribbling engine, about six
inches before the wool goes into the en-
CINE, small steam-pipe runs across, per-
forated with very small holes, in the
manner of sprainer to gig-mIll, and
the steam is made to strike down per-
pendlcularly upon the wool, which hol-
lows and soflens the wool, so that it
works better than even if ii had oil.
saw twenty engines at work with it yes
terday, and | assure you the wool and
yarn under the process of steam appear
ed finer, softer, and better, than with oil.
1t is necessary once in the course Of a
day TO brush the wires of the rollers
with an oil brush. Blue wool being ge.
neraIly foul, and having lime in it, re-
quires about one pound of oil to about
twenty pounds of wool.
"a process likewise of stewing cloth
is now generally used, which fiattens
and sets the face of the wool, much su.
Perior TO any other method. The way
to use it upon wool dyed blue, is, after
the nap is raised and cut two or three
kerf, TO move them at the gig-mill, and
they are wound round a roller from the
gig, tight, and without wrinkle. then
while on the roll they are put into a
vessel of hot water, say from ITO to
1870 degrees, not more, and kept there
an hour or an hour and half, and you
would be surprised at the effect, Cloths

for black are stewed after being cut tc
furnace before dyed; the process Of
dying will not disturb the face or dc
away its glossy appearance.--The wa
ter is heated in wooden trough by
steam.n
Our manufacturers will Immediately
perceive that the steaming of wool, in.
stead of oiling it, is productive of other
advantages besides saving oil. The
machines, mandatory, and workmen
will not be filled with filthy oil, as be-
fore (; and the cloth may be cleansec
with greater certainty and 10 a much
more simple manner. HOPSON.

LONDON, 18th AUGUST 1923

LONDON, 18th AUGUST, 1895.
1t was our wish, as soon as pra cticable, to
obtain bird's-eye view of London, and an
early visit was therefore paid to St. Paul's
Church, occupying an elevated position in
the heart of the city, and rising to the height
of about four hundred feet from its foundation.
This gigantic and noble structure stands upon
Ludgate Hill, on the northern banks of the
Thames, at little distance from the water,
on the site of an ancient church, which was
burnt IN the general conAagration of 1866. Nine
years afterwards, the present edi6ce was COM
menced by the celebrated architect Sir Chris
topher Wren, who lived TO complete it, with
the aid Of one master-mason, in thirty-fve
years after its foundation was laid.
The modern edi6ce is of Portland stone,
which has been dscoloured by the influence
OF the weather, according as its several parts
are more or less exposed. Portions oil il re-
tain the original hue Of the material, while
others are rendered grey and black, by the
storms which have beaten against it for more
than century. At little distance, the
exterior assumes the aspect Of well defined
lights and shades in picture. Unlike most
other churches in the kingdom, St. Paul's
is built in the Grecian style of architecture,
embracing several orders, and fashioned after
the purest models. Its situation, however,
conveys an impression that its dome lie much
too large for the body. II is entirely surround
ed by high brick buildings, rising nearly to
the elevation Of its walls, and obstructing the
view at all points, except the opening of
Streets convergiDg and meeting at the yard.
The dome is a prominent object, seen from
every part Of the city and its suburbs, while
