ers TO the following extract from the New
Orleans Bee, in relation to recent and
highly important invention by New
Yorker, now IN Europe. It seems that
the invention is exciting much interest,
both in this country ard Europe.
IMPORTANT INVENTION. London
correspondent Of the Boston Post notices
the manufacture Of species of wooden
cloth by an American 10 England, which
is perhaps destined to make new era 10
the articles Of wearing apparel. The
Inventors name is Wells. He has con-
structed machine, and discovered pro-
cess bv which wooden cloth OF every des-
cription is produced at less than a fourth
of the cost hitherto usual. The material
is NOT woven but compressed. One hum
dred yards can be turned out by two
boys in twelve hours; and where twenty.
four shilings we're demanded per yard, six
shilliugs afford the new manufacturers
abundant remuneration
The correspondent Of the Post contin>
ues as follows:
This new cloth is likely TO create a
great revolution among The manufacturers
for already they discover that it is solne-
thing more than a mere bubble OF an
hour. The Austrian government has pur-
chased The right TO manufacture in Aus
tria, and several other rights to manulac-
lure itin England and Flaace have been
purchased. There are four or five large
mills now in constant operation in this
country, which turn out daily several
hundred pieces of the cloth of various
qualities. Soon the markets here will be
filled with ii,and no doub. large quanii-
Ity will be sold 10 the United States, as
Mr. Wells, who is New Yorker, in'
formed me that so soon as he had compile
ted all his arrangements for supplying the
European markets, he should establish
several large factories in America. Mr.
Wells has worn frock coat made oil his
new cloth, every day during the las! siA
months, and il is an elegant garment ever
now; the material being compressed, there
