FASSNilN'S PiTENT IRON TIES,.

~ H E above cut represents three Of the
| Button and three of the Buckle Tie as they ap
pear a bale OF cotton
The hoop for the button is punched with two
holes at one end and fifteen at the other The band
has only be drawn tight the holes in the two ends
20 be brought together,--th- two tole END on top
and the button inserted. one button will answer
but il is better 10 insert two.
With the Buckle Tie one end OF the hoop Is fls-
tened To section of the Buckle the other end Is
inserted in the other section, and simply shove d
througb II under the other end as long as there Is
any slack A bite the buckle holds II securely 10
TO its place.
The hoops are painted to prevent rust, and cut in
lengths OF IT, l0 and u feet Ten feet are most gen
orally used. but 1Ok and l. ara sometimes required
for large bales. The buckles fastened to the
hoops, the buttons win be put up in small boxes
The Height Is iboat 10 Pounds 10 the Bale Of
Cotton
Nv Button Tie was the first offered for sale any
extent in the South and has been used b. thousands
Of Planters with universal approval nave In4ue
a valuable improvement in the shape of the button
since il first introduced and have also proeuT
ed patent for BUCKLE TIE which for slmphei
" facility and expedition OF adjustment to bales Of
any OF unequal sizes and for security OF holding Is
l think superior to any offered to the public
The advantages of iron over rope for haIng cotton
are now universally acknowledged. II holds the
bale in a much smaller compass, Is applied ana las
tened with as much facility, both in the country
pressing and the accomplishing a. the sea ports
lessons Immensely the risk from IRE: is stron ger,
and its strength is not impaired by time and expo
sure "a is that OF rope This last advantage mas
beed striangly manifested during the wsr Thou
ting and breaking Of Rope which could have been
preserved if Iron hoops had been used In addition
10 this il can be furnished cheaper than Rope The
arrangement OF labor in the hemp growing states
has reduced the supply Of hemp t. such an extent
As TO cause prices TO rule unprecedentiE high IN
deed a suficeney for haling moderate cotton crop
cannot be relied on at any price
I have arranged for the importation Of large
quantity Of the best English Iron, and have made
arrangements with Messrs. Chambers Latt'ng Tor
the sale and delivery Of my Ties.
SHP REFUGE. NEW ORLEANS, July 2 ls59.
n Fassaann, Esq Orleans Cotton Press
SIR. In January last received from your Press o&9
bales Of cotton. of which about 1000 were recon
pressed and bound with your new Iron Tie. /
can safely affirm that the cotton so bound was re
eeived in better order than il generally comes from
the Presses that it slowed better and enabled the
ship TO carry more than on any previous voyage
The cotton when discharged from the ship IN
IiverpOol was in better order than the rope bound
cotton. il is highly preferable for ground tier As
dampness from the ballast has effect upon II, Tor
il Is well known By practical men that dInpness " III
1ot rho rome bound I can confidently recommend
your Iron Tie as took tlSs lot for an experiment
and carefully watched it BOP in loading and dis
charging ..r
JOHN HOWARD, Master
The undersigned Fire Warden and Fire Inspec-
tor of the New Orleans Insurance Companies, are OF
Oniuipn that the Iron Tie affords greater protection
asr loss in case Of fire than the old style OF bang
