}. b. Harris, of this city, has perfected his
patent for one of the best wheat polishcrs
ever manufactured The object of the ma
chine is to thoroughly clean the wheat of all
foreign PARTICLES, dust, &c, before grinding
and Mr. Dawell, of the Victor Mills, where
one of the machines is in operation, says that
during his experience of thirty years he has
never seen anything that can equal it, The
machine and its operations are described as
follows:
The machine consists of a round cylinder,
or Jacket" composed of closely coiled No
10 steel wire, which, we are Informed by Mr.
Dawcll, one of the proprictorS OF the Victor
Mills and man of Sc years experience in
milling makes the most perfect securing sur
face ever yet invented. On the inside of this
cylinder and fastened to an upright shaft by Il
simple device, are Il series of tampico brushes,
which rcvolve with the shaft and within about
onc-half an inch of the inside of the cylinder.
The wheat enters at the top and falls on Il re-
yolying disk, which distributes it evenly TO
the outer periphery of the brushes, 1t is then
caught by the brushes and held to the abrad
inc surface Of the Jacket until it reaches
the discharge spout at the bottom. fan is
placed over the top of the jacket on the same
shaft to which the brushes are attached. The
fan serves four-tOld purpose, VIZ: Delore
the grain enters the machine it is subjected to
strong suction of air, which removes all
smut, chatf, &c. While it is being actediupon
by the brushes and as fast as the fuzzy mat
ter and other foreign substances are removed
from the berry, it is taken up into the fan
and blown out. After the wheat has passed
through the machine it is subjected to anoth
err strong current, which virtually removes
the last remaining substance of foreign ma
turc All the produce of any value for chick
en- feed is deposited in a suitable receptacle,
the dust being blown ont of the mill.
Mr. Harris has already two or three offers
by parties in other cities to manufacture the
machine either for him direct or upon royal
ty; but he prefers to remain in Ottawa if the
desired assistance can be given him. To man
ufacture it here will require an enlargement of
his present works, the establishment of a foun
dry and the employment of a force of men
that under the present circumstances is not
possible. Those of our citizens who are look
ing for safe investment for portion Of their
idle capital might find it to their interest to
examine into this matter at an early day.

On Wednesday evening the water in the
Illinois river rose rapidly several feet, until it
had reached point within five or six feet Of
its highest point last spring. The ice from
the islands below the city broke "a far cast
ward as Marsele, and formed gorge Of
considerable proportions at this point, but,
aside from flooding the low land, along the
river and near the aqueduct, no damage ina,
been experienced. Fears are entertained,
however, for the safety Of the aqueduct
bridge when the vast body of ice which has
formed just above it begins to move On
Thursday efforts were made TO blast the lee
away from under the aqueduct 50 that the
danger will be lessencd. Yesterday the water
fell little and, If colder weather sets in. no
serious danger to any Of the bridges at Otta-
wa need be apprehended.

Nor since the administration Of Abra-
ham Lincoln has any President received
30 unanimous and cordial endorsement
from the leading journals Of his party as
does President Arthur. In many re-
spects his administration has been a
pleasant surprise to the people Mt large
and his great ability has been exhibited
In numerous instances. The New York
Evening Post pays this tribute to the
administration "The Presidents adj
minlstration has been safe, quiet, order
ly, unmarked by scandals or surprises,
and above all, by that great foe OF trade
and industry. 'brillancy.' He was
trained in bad school, the Conkling
school, the worst the United States has
seen except Tweed's, and has probably
only come to think OF politics as public
business, and not ward work with the
boys within the last four years. But
that he should have filed the highest
place 80 well after such training is evil
dence OF much higher powers than most
people gave him credit for when he was
nominated to the Vice Presidency"
