THE unleriariel having aecentad the aencv for the above named wheel, would call the attention, of the proprietors of Mills, Factories, dee. Ac., to the many advantages they would derive from using it. It is well adaptedt to all purposes for A which a water wheel is used. The small space it occupies, and the velocity of its motion, are attract ive features. It requires but a small amount of gearing. Ice does not affect it. Works as well on horixontal as vertical shaft. Suit able to any locality. Not affected by back witter. It is simple, cheap and durable. One of the wheels can be seen in operation at Foard, Tatuin Sc Co's, Mill on South Yadkiu Siver. ljj.
