1842 A. M. CLARK, Chancery-lane. Combination locks. (A communication). Dated June 5, 1868. This invention is not described apart from the drawings. -Patent completed. 1843 J.PAGE, Birmingham. Cork screws. Dated June 5, 1868. On the shaft (or shank) of an ordinary shaped corkscrew the inventor places a metal collar, which works up and down by means of a screw cut upon the shaft in the reverse direction of the twist of the piercing worm, a corresponding female screw being cut within the collar. He also attaches to the shaft the usual bell-shaped frame, the neck of which moves freely (without screw) up and down the shaft between the collar and piercing worm. The upper end of this frame neck and the lower end of the collar are pierced with ratchet teeth or claws, fitting each other. In using the corkscrew, the collar is placed at the end of shaft nearest the handle, so that when the worm has pierced the cork, the ratchet teeth of the collar are brought into contact with those of the frame neck, and, by continuing to turn, the cork is drawn by the reversing action of the screw on shaft.-Patent abandoned.

1844 C. D. ABEL, Southampton-buildings, Chancerylane. Stopping motion for spinning machinery. (A communication). Dated June 5, 1868..

It is well known that in the frames for spinning flax, hemp, and other filamentous materials, when a thread is broken, the feeding rollers, in continuing to deliver the sliver or material for the thread, cause a certain waste, which may be of considerable importance where a number of frames are employed. Various contrivances have been proposed for preventing such waste, but none of the existing arrangements full perfectly and economically the object desired. The present invention consists in a simple and cheap arrangement of apparatus for the above purpose, wherein a disengaging lever, brought directly into action by the breaking of a thread, is caused to arrest the motion of the respective drawing roller only, thus stopping the supply of material for that particular thread without interfering with the action of the other parts of the machine.-Patent completed.

He also forms suitable sockets in the centre of the cart, so that the pole may, when desired, be passed vertically through the centre of the cart, and be used as a tent pole upon which a canvas or other cover is mounted, so as to form a tent over and around the cart, at which time legs are let down from the cart to retain it in a vertical posiion.-Patent completed.

1873 S. WILLETTS, Ashton, near Birmingham. Doublebarrel breech-loading firearms. Dated June 8, 1868. This invention has reference to those guns known as drop-down guns. Instead of the mechanism ordinarily employed for discharging the said firearms, the inventor employs the following arrangement of parts:-In place of the ordinary hammers he employs hammers without the nose, or that part which is employed to strike the percussion cap or striker, and he joints a pin or striker to each hammer immediately below the head or comb. The said striker consists of a rod, by preference of a cylindrical figure, on the rear end of which is an eye which enters a recess in the hammer, and through which eye and the hammer a screw pin is passed, so as to make a joint. The front ends of the said pins or strikers work in holes in the break-off, the said front ends of the pins or strikers being withdrawn into the break-off when the hammers are at half or full cock, and projecting through the face of the break-off when the hammers fall. The front ends of the said pins or strikers are flat or rounded, and the said pins or strikers work, by preference, in a slightly oblique direction. On the descent of either of the hammers, its pin or striker is driven forcibly through the break-off, and, striking the percussion cap in the base of the cartridge, discharges the cartridge.-Patent abandoned.

Locks. Dated June 8, 1868

This invention relates to that class of locks in which tum

blers are used, and consists, in the first place, in making the faces of the tumblers against which the stump works of peculiar shape, the effect of which is that, should pressure be applied against the bolt, so as to tend to force it back, the stump (instead of merely bearing against the faces of the tumblers, so as to retain them in the positious to which they may be pushed, and thus assisting to the picking of the lock) holds them down and fastens them in such a way that, so long as the pressure is on the bolt, they cannot be moved. Another part of the invention consists in introducing a series of springs to act on the tumblers, so arranged that, should any of the tumblers be raised too

high, when tampering with the lock, it will be caught by the spring and retained in that position, and will thus prevent the stump from entering the gate, although all the others may be in the proper positions.-Patent completed,
