NV Button Tie was the first offered for sale to any
extent in the South and has been used by thousands
Of Planters with universal approval, 1 have made
a valuable improvement in the shape of the button
since it was first introduced and have also Drocur
ed patent for BUCKLE TIE which for simpliei-
ty facility and eition of adjustment bales of
any or unequal sizes and for security ef holding is
1 think, superior to any offered to the public.
The advantages of iron rope for baling cotton
bale in a much smaller compass; is applied and fas-
tened with much facility, both in the country
lessons immensely the risk from fire; is stronger
and its strength is not impaired by time and expo
is that of rope. This last advantage has
beed strikingly manifested during the war. Thou
sands of bales of Cotton have been lost by the rot
ting ana breaking OF hOpe Hnlcn could nave been
preserved if Iron hoops had been used In addition
to this it be furnished cheaper than Rope The
arrangement of labor in the hemp growing States
has reduced the supply of hemp To such an extent
as to cause prices TO rule unprecedently high: in
deed sufieiency for baling moderate cotton crop
cannot be relied on at any price
L have arranged for the importation of a large
quantity of the best English Iron, and have made
arrangements with Messrs. Chambers & Latting for
the sale and delivery of my Ties.
SHIP REFUGE, NEW ORLEANS, July = 1859
II. FassHann Esq Orleans Gotten Press.
SIR In January last Irece red from your Press 1859
bales of cotton of which about 1000 were recon
can safely affirm that the cotton so bound was re-
ceived in better order than it generally from
the Presses that il slowed better and enabled the
snip to carry more than on any previous voyage
The cotton when discharged from the ship in
Liverpool was in better order than the rope bound
cotton; ii is highly preferable for a ground tier as
dampDess from the ballast has effect upon it. for
1t is well known by practical men that dampuess viii
rot tho rope bound. can confidently recommend
your Iron Tie as took tlSs lot for an experiment
ana carefully watched it bod in loading and dis
charging. -
am Sir, Yours Respectfully,
JOHN HOWARD Master
The undersigned, Fire Wardsn and Fire Inspee-
tor of the New Orleans Issuance Companies are of
opinion that tha L Tie affords greater protection
