It will form a REGULAR PART of our future plan to prefent the Public with an abridged Sketch of the fpecifications of all new Patents AS SOON AS THEY ARE ENROLLED. We bave no doubt but Patentees will liberally contribute towards the perfection of our plan, by tranfmitting copies of their fpecifications; and we have no hesitation in afferting, that our plan itfelf is fraught equally with benefit to the Public and to the Patentees. Such of our readers as wish for more exact information, will doubtiefs have recourfe to the offices of Enrollment in Chancery-lane.

CANAL LOCKS.

N the 2nd of Auguft, the fpecifica tion of a patent was enrolled in the Petty Bag Office, by JOHN LUKE, Efq. of Treviles, in the county of Cornwall, for a new mode of lifting, drawing, and conveying loaded and light boats out of one canal into another, instead of the prefent mode by means of locks. The invention confifts of an inclined plane, running from the furface of the upper to that of the lower canal, with a fyftem of machinery at the upper end of it, by which the boats are drawn up and let down the plane. The machinery confifts of a water-wheel, that is turned by a ftream let in upon it from the upper canal, with other wheels connected therewith, and with the rope that paffes over a pulley, and connects with the carriage in which the boat is placed: alfo of a loaded veffel, called a tun, which affifts and regulates the machinery, and which moves up and down a correfponding and parallel plane, but in a direction oppofite to that of the boat. In cafe of a fcarcity of water, the principal axle of the machinery is fupplied with a hand-turn, which is of fufficient power to answer the purpose of the water-wheel. The contrivances for lifting up and letting down the carriage of the boat from the water furface of one canal to that of the other is fimple, and well calculated for the purpose.

BRITISH POT-ASH.

MR. ROBERT HOAKESLY, of the city of Chefter, merchant, has lately enrolled the fpecification of a patent for a method of making British pot-afh, for the ufe of all kinds of manufactures, in which foreign pot-afh, or any alkali, is ufeful. The pot-afh is made of the following materials, viz.. English, Scotch, Welch, or Irith kelp, foreign barilla, or falts obtained from foap leys by evaporation, or in their calcined ftate, commonly called black afhes, or of foap waftes. It may be made of any of the above materials, mixed with only a certain proportion of the falts extracted from foap leys; or by mixing cer

2.

tain proportions of any two or more toge ther, fo as to fuit the particular manufactures it may be adapted for. It is alfo made of rock falt, mixed with a certain proportion of any foreign or other alkali.

The materials are pounded or ground into fmall pieces, and fuch kinds as are defigned to make a pot-afh of a particular quality, are mixed together. They are then thrown into an oven, or furnace, of a particular" and very fimple "conftruction, and there, by means of an extraordinary degree of heat, are melted into fo liquid a state as to run out with great ease at a channel made in a convenient part of the oven, or furnace, and there collected into pots. Either of the kinds, when cold, affume the appearance of foreign pot-ash, and are used without farther procefs.

The fuperior property of this invention is, that it separates, and difperfes from all kinds of kelp, barilla, and rock falt, much heterogeneous matter (particularly earth and common falt) and thereby renders the alkali contained in thefe fubftances more pure. This must neceffarily make a great faving in the expences of alkali, and of labour in the application of it, in all manufactures, where kelp and barilla are used in their rude ftate, it being well known, that the earth, and other heterogeneous matter, contained in these articles, prevent, in a very great degree, the operation of the alkali they contain. By this inven tion, alfo, kelp, barilla, and rock falt, may be used in manufactures, in which their former rude ftate entirely prevented their ufe; which he conceives will be of great public utility.
