MoSsrs. ocrsn Tobey, n II. Gilbert,
and j. J. Wolcots, owners of large -four
ing mill ct F -l,ou, Oswego Co., are running
it with Riohmond's Cable Power, q descrip-
tion Of which we find in the 0swego Times
The mill is situated upon the BERN bank oI
the canal, between the canal and the mill
race and the water wheel by which the
machinery is driven, is on the opposite side
OF the race and street, the water being dis.
charged into the river. The motion from
the water wheel is communicated to the
machinery Of the mill by the means of q
wire cable passing over the street and race
ct heighth to cause no obstruction TO the
street or anything intervening between th'
mill and the wheel. The wheel is a tur"ae,
manufactured by Harrison snd Hsner, OF
Rome, and is OF 100 horse powsr. An up
right shaft rises from the wheel twenty-five
feet, at the top Of which shan 1t ten feet
driving wheel. This driving wheel is OF
iron, Rrooved and sacked with solid rubber,
driven TO its place, and ia very durable. The
driving wheel in the mill is in the uppor
story, and is like the one above the water
wheel, except that i. is but six feet in diam.
sser. From this driving wheel in the mill
dsscends an upright shan, through the
various lofts, from which the machinery OF
the mill derives motion. The cable is three
hundred feet in length, fve-sights of an inch
10 diameter, and is composed of one hund-
red sud thirsy-thres wires OF annesled iron,
twisted into strands, like an ordinary rope,
being AImos, precisely like the wire rigging
OF vessels which has come into use within .
few years. This cable is very flexible and
durable, aud will doubtless wear for many
years. This method Of communicating
power BY means Of . cable has recently
come into use, and has many advantages.
Il allows the location of factories or mills
wherever convenience requires, even at
distance from the driving power. This is
the case with this mill
