NEW MACHINE TO FACILITATE JOINERs'
OPERAuoNs---Mr Dudley, from America, mas exhibited
before tie Philosophical Society OF Liverpool an i'm
proved mode Of applying the power of driving bands 70
machinery. The inventor was Mr.. Parker, house
carpenter. and very ingenious mechanic. THIS prin'
cple not only economies power, but expense In pueys
and betting. and also In space. He then exhlDed a
model Of the machine with Of which siZe nc said,

could be done. OF the character gcDersly done in Il
joineTs shop than any eight men can do the present
mode Of operation. The machine also equally ap.
pcable TO an descriptions OF machinery that required
rotary motion IL the by the present mode
Of banding pueys friction increased in greater ratio
than velocity. BY the new method, saving OF three,
fourths was effected in the friction, and as friction dld
not increase with the speed, the saving OF power was
more apparent and greater the higher the speed or
velocity OF the machinery that supposing, on dry
