the bottom of the pan up to a certain 
height, which will prevent the possibility 
of any effluvia rising up the pipe, and the 
waste water is carried off by another pipe. 
After using the closet, a cord is to be 
drawn, which allows the contents of the 
basin to run off; a flap at the end of the 
pipe opening, and closing immediately as it 
passes, so as to prevent any vapour from 
returning to the pipe. 
To JonatHan ScHOFIELD, of Rostriek, 
York, for his Invention of certain Im- 
provements in the’ Manufacture of Cloth, 
which he denominates British Cashmere.— 
7th April 1824. 
The new fabric proposed under this 
patent is to be made in the following man- 
ner. The woollen yarn, which is to be em- 
ployed as warp in the loom, is to be spun 
particularly fine, and its threads are to be 
doubled and twisted together ; but the 
twist is to be taken out before weaving to 
make the yarn smooth. The fabric is then 
to be produced, by weaving in the ordinary 
way: the cloth must afterwards be cleared, 
and then the pile raised by cards; it is 
then to be shorn, as woollen cloths usually 
are ; it is afterwards to be sorted and sub- 
mitted to the operation of fulling,—to be 
rolied tight upon a wooden roller, and 
boiled for several hours: it is then to be 
dyed, and afterwards dried and finished 
upon a machine, not stretched out by 
means of tenter-hooks. The machine is 
to consist of three large cylinders of copper 
or tin, heated by steam; the cloth is to be 
drawn off the wooden roller over these 
heated cylinders, and taken up by another, 
and so on until dry. 
To Joun Crostry, of Cotton Lane, City 
Road, Middlesex, for his Invention of an 
_Amprovement in the Constructions of 
Lamps or Lanterns, for the better Pro- 
tection of the Light, against the Effects of 
the Wind or Motion.—5th May 1824. 
This inyention applies to street, binnacle, 
and other lamps placed in exposed situa- 
tions. It consists in a mode of construct- 
ing the air passages of a lantern, in such a 
-manner, as to prevent a sudden gust of 
wind. from extinguishing the light: it is, 
therefore, so contrived, that the ingress of 
the air to furnish the burner, and the egress 
ofthe smoke shall be through zig-zag pas- 
-sages, by which means tempestuous winds 
will not be able to pass freely ; while a per- 
fect.draft will be preserved. 
It is stated, that these contrivances may 
be’ varied in several ways, without depart- 
ing from the principle. For instance, the 
passages may be’ made curved instead of 
“zig-zag ; the object being to prevent any. 
‘sudden’ gust of wind from entering the 
lantern.’
