THE Siibfcriber apprehends he has at
great labour and expence much improved
on the common mode of manufacturing
pot and pearl a (lies, for which improve
ment the United States have granted hiin,
an exclusive right for a term of years,
'i iit* advantages over the former is set forth
by divei a Certificates, one of which signed
by David Rittenhoufe, Do&or P.ufh and
others, hath been published. By variety
of improvements in the application of the
principle, he apprehends he has so far Am
plify'd it, that at small expence it ir.ay be
conduced by women or children, altho'
larger the works greater the profits result
ing in proportion. In a work that maycoft
about 12 dollars to be worked by a boy of
12 or 13 years old, with attention, may
make 15b weight of pearl ashes, and with
good house ashes at gd per bushel, wood at
20s per cord ; the peail ashes so made when
fold at the common price of 50s per hund
red,leaves about 40s for his week's labour.
The process is allowed to be easy and fami
liar, one of those small works is now Hand* 1
ing at his house in Arch Street No-43,and
is fiee for infpc&ion to any that inclines
to vlfit it; he therefore wishes a fuitdjle
Committee may be appointed, one or more
members of each County to examine the
fame, fee some experiments performed,
and ihould it be thought after every necef
favy examination, this Improvement prefer
able to the former, and a general benefit
to this State, in bringing forward this ma
flufa&ury in which little heretofore have
been done, he willing to relinquilh hisafor
faid right,as saras relates to Pennsylvania,
for i'uch a compensation as the merits of it
may appear reasonable todefire.
SAMUEL HOPKINS.
2d Mo. 19, 1764.
A work that may cost about 300 dollars
when compleat with 4 large boilers worked
by 2 fires, 2 hands may make as much
pearl ashes as common black salts, perhaps
18 or 20 cwt. per week, it may require
about 7 cord of wood. The quantity
made in a certain given time, will always
depend on the attention of the workmen,
the size of the furnace, the quality of the
ashes, &c. &c.
The Committee appointed Feb. 25,laft,
on the* memorial of Samuel Hopkins,
made report, which was read as follows,
viz :
The Committee to whom was refered
the application of Samuel Hopkins to the
Legillature, on the fubjeft of an improve
ment djfeovered by him in the manufac
tury of pot and bearl ashes, beg leave to
toreport—That they think favourably of
the, prayer of the laid applicant, and aie
of opinion that it will beadvantageous for
the State to have the mode invented by
him, rendered ■of general utility, by the
purchase of his exclusive privilidge in the
dilcovery, which they underltand may be
effeded on very moderate termsthey
therefore recommend the following refolu
tton:
Rtfofoed, That a Committee be ap
pointed to bring in a bill to grant the sum
of £ to Samuel Hopkins, in re
ward of his discovery, and as a compensa
tion for the furrettder of his exclusive right
to said improvement, within the limits of
this commonwealth.
