his assistant can manufacture, with ease, enough
sealing wax to supply the whole consumption Of the
article II the United States; they already supply the
South and the West India Islands.
There one other manufacturer OF sealing wax IN
THIS city who makes what is called kidders wax.
The amount Of capital invested dses not amount 10
more than i've thousand dollars, and not more than
hye hands are employed in the business. we nave
tried Mr.. Buffers inks and sealing wax and can re-
commend them as the best articles in that line that
ever came under our notice.
Tablet Str0ps.-At Wilson's pocket book case,
Saunders superior tablet strops, which do away
tirey with the use of the oil stone. They have four
Sides each of different material, and two outer peck
cts with steel clasps for razOrs They are the best ar
tices of the kind sent to the fair In srep max
ing in this city, six manufacturers employ twelve
hands constantly, and have capital invested OF two
thousand dollars.
Initiation Painting of Wood.-There are several
splendid specimens of paintings on table tops and
PANEL SO to initiate wood, but the most superb
article we have the course of our lives IS the
painted table top at the end Of one of the avenues IN
the saloon, Just where the stage used to be; It's an
Imitation of buh- work and rosewood, and not only
surpasscs description but actually exceeds belief when
seen. No praise can be too great to award TO the
skilfu artist who has produced so splendid spec-
men Of painting tina, ltls preferred to the real rose
ars the paint is valued at twenty-five dollars, max
ing forty dollars for it is shown at the fair and
a table of the real wood fashioned after il would be
worth two hundred dollars.
Stock Frame-There is silk stock frame in Davis
case that presents the most admirable specimen Of
stitching we may venture to say ever seen IN the
world. 1t contains no less than thirty thousand
stitches; there being from seventyve TO one humid
bred stitches in each briste One young lady in Mr..
D. employ did It in day and half Twenty thous
sand stitches in one day-she ought to have the pre-
MUM for Stitching for industry, for neatness for
regularity and when see her, perhaps we may say
for beauty ALSO No lady young or old, handsome or
-favored, soyenly, fast or slow, regular or
erratc, should forget TO inspect this most admirable
| stock frame. II weknew the young lady's name we
would certainly chronicle il ; for
"'Tis just give applause where tits deserved"
Iron Roof-There is an instructive model of an
iron roof close by the Guyon cotton press model in
the alley entrance, the rafters of which of iron,
and which is fire proof; the invention is in use in this
city.
Horse Po,uer.-A model of horse power next to
the above deserves inspection; the lever bar to
which the horses traces attacked turns on ts own
axis and the central work Is SO constructed that only
three cogs are working at tho same time, 80 that
very small amount of friction has to be overcome 1t
is an admirable arrangement.
Ellen Iree-Close 10 the above two models is
painting Of Ellen Tree, by boy which is better
likeness than nine out of ten different ones now in
circulaton but the chef deuvre in the matter Of
this ladys form and features is to be seen in the gall
lery of the saloon, the left side you enter. 1t 10
| a chalk ENGRAVING of Ellen Tree as Violante; the
likeness is the most excellent ever saw; we have
scanned il with one of Samivel Vellers patent double
million iagnifyng gas microscopes Of extra power,
and cannot detect a defect in it, II is perfect; and
although engraving has all the delicate sofiness Of
| a chalk drawing.
Harness:-At the end of the saloon is splendid
set Of four horse harness. valued at $780, made for
the celebrated Tacon, the Governor Of Havana: Bet
ter we are certain, for examined 1t closely,
was never made in any country, and 1t is made by
the orders Of the merchants of Havana who intend
present Tacon with the harness, horses, and spen-
did carriage now building in Newark There are on
ly six manufacturers in this city of first rate harness.
they have joint capital of sixty thousand dollars,
| and employ about sixty hands, who earn from twelve
to thirty dollars per week. There are in this city at
least fifty manufacturers of all kinds of harness and
saddlery who have joint capital of forty thousand
dollars. There is no harness imported except, here
and there solitary fancy set, by private individuals
The principal part of the harness mandatory in the
United States is carried at Newark, where il so
much mixed up with the carriage business that
scarcely be considered a separate concern. There
| are however eleven manufacturers of harness and
saddlery in Newark whs cannot have less than half
million of dollars invested in their entire establish
men,s for one house alone has capital of one hun
dred thousand dollars, and employs in brisk times
over 200 hands
| As the manufactures and stores of Newark and
New York are closely connected in many instances,

which we obtained in recent visit 10 that place -
