The London Morning Chronicle Of the 24th has
the following:
The American department has again received an
important accession of strength in the shape of some
specimens OF Brussels carpets woven upon power
looms. Although various attempts have been made
to adapt the power loom to carpet weaving in Eng
land, there is not, believe, at this moment, any
machinery perfected for that object. Our American
Brethren have therefore gained another step ahead
OF us and have another laurel on this well-con-
tested field Of the industrial arts.
