roller with all its adjustments.  It is furthermore supplied with chasing arrangement and four bowls; the bottom one is of cast iron, with wrought iron center; the next is of paper or cotton; the third of chilled iron fitted for heating by steam or gas, and the top of paper or cotton.  By this machine are given such finishes as are known as “chasing finish” when the thready surface is wanted; “frictioning,” or what is termed “glazing finish,” “swigging finish,” and “embossing finish;” the later is done by substituting a steel or copper engraved roller in place of the friction bowl.  This machine is also made to I produce the “Moire luster” finish.  The drying machine consists of nineteen cylinders, arranged with stave rails and plaiting down apparatus.  These cylinders are driven by bevel wheels, so that each one is independent of its neighbor, and should any accident occur to one or more of the cylinders or wheels, the remaining ones can be run until a favorable opportunity arrives to repair the damage.  A small separate double cylinder diagonal engine is fitted to this machine, the speed of which can be adjusted for any texture of cloth, and being of the design it is, will start at once on steam being turned one.  The machine cylinders are rolled by a special machine for that purpose, and are perfectly true on the face.  Their insides are fitted with patent buckets, which remove all the condensed water.  In the machine exhibited, which is designed for the bleaching, washing, chloring, and dyeing, the cloth is supported by hollow metallic cylinders perforated with holes and corrugated to allow the liquor used to pass freely through as much of the cloth as possible; the open ends of the cylinders are so arranged that nearly all of their area is open to the action of the pump.  The liquor, which is drawn through the cloth into the inside of the cylinders by the centrifugal pumps, is discharged back into the cistern by a specially constructed discharge pipe, so devised that the liquor, which is sent into it with great force by the pump, is diverted so as to pour straight down in order to prevent any eddies which could cause the cloth to wander from its course.  The cloth is supported to and from the cylinders by flat perforated plates in such a manner that the force of the liquor cannot bag or displace the threads of the cloth, and by this means also the liquor has a further tendency to penetrate the fibers of the cloth.  Means are provided for readily and expeditiously cleansing the entire machine.  The next machine which we have to notice in this exhibit is Farmer’s patent marking and measuring machine, the purpose of which is to stamp on the cloths the lengths of the same at regular distances.  It is very desirable that drapers should have some simple means of discovering at a glance what amount of material they have in stock without the necessity of unrolling their cloth to measure it, and this machine seems to perfectly meet the demands of the case.  The arrangement for
