thinning it at the edge, {> that when cold 
or twifted upon the mandrii the edges con- 
fiderably overlap each other, and then 
withdrawing the mandril, and taking a 
welding heat upon the fkelp, another man- 
dril is inferted, and the fkelp is forged 
upon it, at one or more heats, as may be 
convenient. ‘The patentee lays no ciaim 
to an exclufive privilege for the procefs of 
welding or forging, but merely for the

MR. M. J. BRUNEL’S (QUEEN-SQUARE, 
WESTMINSTER), for Trimmings and 
Borders of Muflins, &c. 
This invention confifts in weaving nar- 
row webs of muffins, of cambric muflins, 
&c. with a proper felvage at each edge, 
adapted to prevent its ravelling out in 
wafhing, and of any breadth not exceed- 
ing ten inches, fo that thefe narrow webs 
fhall, without hemming, whipping, &c. 
be ready for ufe. In cafes where trim- 
mings of the materials above fpecified are 
required to be gathered, or tobe whipped 
for the purpofe of being drawn up full, a 
itrong or double thread is introduced into 
the warp, on which the trimming may be 
drawn or gathered without the aid of nee-,

die-work. The trimmings may be woven’ — 
either in looms fimilar to thofe in ufe for 
weaving muflins, lawns, &c. with the 
only difference, that the looms for thefe 
trimmings muit be proportioned to the 
narrownefs of the web requireii: or they 
may be woven in ribband-looms, and by 
engine looms, wich the precaution of uling 
{uch fizing, farching, and other dreffing 
of the yarn, as is proper for weaving 
flaxen or cotton webs: they may be woven 
with plain felvages, fo as not to fhew any 
appearance of hem ;. or they may be woven 
with a thick ftripe at one or both edges, 
fo as to give the appearance of a hem, as 
well as to give additional ftrength to the 
edge oredges. Thefe trimmings may be 
woven with plain felvages, f> as not to 
fhew the appearance of hem, or witha 
thick ftripe at one or both edges, fo as to 
fhew a hem, and to give additional ftrength 
tothe edges. The edgés may be woven 
double, fo that a quill, bodkin, &c. may 
be drawn through the hollow parr, but in 
that cafe each of the folds fhould be of 
the {ame texture with the fingle part of the 
web, and therefore the weft fhould be 
woven four times through the warp of the 
edge (that is, twice for each fold), for eve- 
ry twice that the weft is woven through 
tie warp of the fingle part of the web.
