A New Invention.

Mr.. E. NJ Meader, for several years employ
ed rs compostor in this city, has invented a
new mode of locking up forms and gallies. It
consists in the application of SCREW QuoISs,
which are used with small key or wrench,
with straight side and foot-s,icks.-The screws,
which are independent Of the chase, can be
made of different sizes, are applicable to any
form, and can be used with any chase or gal
ley now made, without altering them in the
least. They have been subjected to the Sc
verest tests in our office, and are pronounced
superior by the most capable Of Judging. In
locking up with this mode, no mnllets, shooting
sticks, quoins, or bevelled side and foot-sticks
are used, and the contrivance can be employ.
ed on stone, or board having a smooth surface,
without injury to either, and without making
! the least nose.-Moreover, there is no moving
or jarring Of the form or chase on the stone, and
the form after it is locked up requires no plain
! ing down, which will prevent great injury be.
ing done TO the face Of the type. Each screw.
although small, is capa bic of yielding from five
to fifteen hundred pounds pressure, and from
four to six screws are sufficient 10 lock up with
the utmost safety the largest forms. This can
be accomplished with the greatest correctness,
as the screws used being Of the same SIZE one
can be turned the same distance us the other.
even by the smallest boy in the Office, and with
the utmost ease and precision. They may be
used any length of time, without danger OF

are once obtained, they will las, for years.
Much time is saved with this new mode, in
addition to the saving Of material. The in.
vcnton has novelty, simplicity, md utility tc
recommend it. The inventor has applied fol
a patent, and we hope his industry, ingenuity
and expense, will meet liberal return.
