MAKING FISH-HOOKS.

A friend lately urged lis to visit him in New
Haven Conn promising us a sight that would re-
ward the trouble. We went so practicable,
and were taken by him TO a building in which some
scores of men and women were making Fish-HoOks
of various sizes invented by Dr. G. o. Crosby OF that
city. Into each of these machines wire of given
size was rapidly passing from reel fashioned some
what like the swfts" Of our Yankee grandmothers,
and being automatically cut into the requisite lengths,
bent flattened at one end sharpened to a point at
the other bearded, and dropped into box under the
machine, needing only to be tempered to make them
a. perfect efficient Fish-Hooks as were seen-a
single workman thus making sirty thousand Fish
Hooks in day of ten hours We said he makes them,
but that is inaccurate he supplies the wire and then
looks on while the machine makes them without a
fault or a possibility of defect as fast as shngle
nails can be made, and equal to any ever used. That
they are cheaper than any other need hardly be
added Hitherto, we Americans have fshed with
British-made, hooks; but that day is over. The
European hooks have till now been made by
hand-slowly, clumsily, extensively: they VIII
henceforthl he made on DR.. Crosby's machine but
we trust that there sufficient patriotism in the in
veptor to reserve the American market for American
made hooks. They cannot cost half what we have
heretofore paid our friends abroad for poorer ar
ticle.
We read recently an account in The Working Man
British an account of the ish-hook manufacture In
England which seems in the light OF what we
saw in New Haven. the description of some ante
dluyian process. invented by TubalCan. The
wire is first cut by shears: then heated; then
rubbed then bearded then pointed by filing
then bent; then shanked; then secured; then
blued or japanned when they are. ready to be
counted papercd and labeled Each of this ia n dis

New-York tribune., 1867-09-05

Though the aggregate vote cast in Vermont
last Tuesday is light, owing to the certainty
wherewith the result was foreseen, there were
local contests marked by decided activity and
interest. Prominent among them was that in Ben
nington, where the outgoing Lieut.. Gov. Gard
ner ran for Representative against TrenOr w.
Park. distinctly on the ground of opposition to
town subscription of $l25000 to secure the
construction of direct railroad from Ben
nington to Chatham 4-Corners, whereby
the Harlem will be joined to the West
ern Vermont, forming direct, continuous
line from this city to Whitehall. Over 1000
votes were polled, and Mr. Park reelected by
some 200 maority-Gov. Gardner, though a
leading Republican, backed by other magnates,
receiving but little more than the Democratic
vote. We hope to announce the completion of
the new railroad within the year ensuing, and
hail it as opening new and important avenue
to our City. Mr. Parks personal subscription
to its stock is $55O,OOO, and he takes the con-
tract to build it (56 miles) for Sl,60O,OOO, which
sum has been secured.
