CoTToN THREAD. Very few Of tho

are in the daily habit Of using the Nee
dleyare probably aware that ahscT az
indebted for the invention Of that im-
portant article in various works Of do
nestle manufacture, cotton thread, 10
one OF their own sex-the wife Of ps-
triarch of Americanmanufactpres Same
uel Slater. "A writer in the Woon-
socket Patriot states, that in l7s4, while
spinning a quantity Of sea island cot
ton, the evenness and beauty Of the.
yarn attracted the attention Of Mr.. Sla-
ter, and the question arose whether, If
double and twisted it would not make
good sewing thread. The experiment
was tried, and in order to be fully sa-
tisfied with the result, a sheet was made
one half with linen, and the other half
with cotton thread, and Immediately
put into use. The cotton wore the
best; and the linen was the first that
was rent. From this period, Mr.. Sla-
ter commenced the manufacture Of cot
ton thread, and it soon spread into Eng
land, France, and all other European
countries, where it is generally suppo-
sed to be Of English origin though the
credit Of the invention belongs almost
entirely to the American matron.
