MR. EDIToR:-Have You seen that lat.
tie woodworking machine, which they
call "Drummond's Patent Candle Ma
kerr" II not, advise you to lose ne
time in its examination, that you may be
able to eaiighfea your readers upon a
subject OF such general practical utility.
Il is curious specimen ofingenuity and
is likely to run a desperate opposition to
all the chambers and candle-mongers in
the country. Ii makes, wicks and barns
its own candles; ant only requires for
that purpose an occasional supply of tai
low, or grease of any kind that will burn.
1t is very simple in its construction, and
its operation easily comprehended by the
most common understanding. Indeed,
the wonder is, that SO simple, convenient
and economical process of manufac-
turing candles has not come to light be-
fore; and it certainly combines all those
advantages more eminen1y than any
thing Of the kind / have ever seen. By
merely turning the bottom OF the candle
stick (for it is only candlestick after all,
and suitable in all respects for common
use,) neat, smooth, round candle is
forced out at the top, all wicked and trim
med and ready for burning. Tallow,
lard or any grease that will harden TO the
consistency of either, may thus be con-
verted into light, at a very cheap rate in
the actual cost OF material, time and labor.
Wicking enough for month may be
prepared in minute, and the reservoir
will need replenishing with grease ordi-
narily once week. Any housewife,
especially those who mould or dip their
own candles, can estimate the economy
of the thing at glance. The wick being
dry, absorbs the melted tallow, and thus
turns the current vifhin; so that there is
no running Of grease, as in the common
candida matter Of no small consequence
in point both of neatness and economy
Besides, there are no waste bits, and no
handling, breaking or melting away Of the
candles themselves, which, In the heat of
summer, are the perpetual sources Of an
noyance.
The candle need not be more than an
inch or two in length at any time, and
may be kept ata uniform height if de-
sired, until the machinery shall wear out
by actual use; which, by the way, with
its simplicity and constant fabrication, il
is not likely to do for long time, at the
least calculation. The cheapness and
convenience of the article should certainly
place it in the hands of every one who
has any use for 4more light" And now,
in the conclusion of this cursory notice of
the matter, allow me 10 refer you for a
more complete description of It's actual
operation Than ! could hope 10 prepare, to
a communication on the same subject in
the Statesman of Wednesday; or what
will be better still to the article itself,
which may be found at the Herancourt
building, or occasionally in the streets, in
the hands Of agents, who are rapidly pre-
engaging them understand, with the ex-
pectation that an ample supply will soon
