Important to Hemg Grimccrs Having been invited by Cant. G. G. Knox of our town, to examine a model of his newly invented IIejiP Breaking M.vciuxk, I feel. contidc.it in saying, that it will fully answer the purposefor which it was intended. Though the one I saw, was intended for nothing more than a model for exhibition, vet it will break hemp or (lax in a manner superior to any hemp or fx breaking machine, that ever came under my notice j before. The model is drawn on a scale ef two inches to the foot the workmanship is execute I in the neatest style, and altoget'.:cr creditable to the ingenuity of the inventor. The machine may be propelled by ei'.h. r steam, horse,. or water power; or for the purpose of breaking flax, may be worked by hand. One great advantage this machine possesses overall others-of the kind, is that of a pounder, by which the stalk of the hemp or (lax is" broken, without injuring the lint. After being thus pounded, it passes through the breaks, which turns out the hemp or llax. nearly or quite ready for tbe halehel.

lo loose WHO are mini ol examining inc productions of art, and seeing the ingenuityol man displayed, 1 would say, call and see ti'.e limp Breaking Maettim it will repay you for your trouble.
