This llrm has been engaged for about ten years In the business of lmporttm? nb hons at No. 433 Chesmit street A few years ago thpy'comrncnced the experiment of manufacturing ribbons for themselves. Two hand-looms were set tin In their store, and It was demonstrated that tho thinir would pay. This determined them to go Into the business on a more extensive scale and about three vears ago Mr. ltschner purchased a piece of land near his residence at Tioga, and lilted upa fine brick barn which stood upon It as a ribbon factory. Bv a somewhat singular coincidence, the barn, which whs a large, substantial brick building, was ori Blnally'erected bv Kendcrton Smith during the mom inu'tkaulus excitement, for tnc purp.we of broedlnif silkworms. After that queer bubble burst the barn was used for storing grain and hay, until after thirty years It became again the scene of sllk-muk-lug operations: in a manner somewhat different, however, from what Us builder Intended. Tlie building Is large and airy, and with very little alte ration It has been converted Into a most convenient and well-arranged factory, at an expense of about The'silk used Is obtained in hanks from China and Japan, and the firm have now a largo Invoice on tne way from China via Kan Francisco and the Paolilo Railroad. Atwut eight thousand pounds of raw silk are used per annum. It Is mostly dyed In this city ; Borne of the colors, such as scarlets, pinks, greens, etc., cost about 14 per pound to dye, and the dyeing bill averages over 11300 per month. The silk, before It Is used, mnst be twisted, and this operation Is per formed In this country. To show how line the fibres of the silk are, we may state that the finest raw silk, iHjfore It Is twisted, has about twenty thousand yards to the ounce. The operations of twisting, cleaning, picking out the knots and flaws, winding upon the bobbins for the weavers, nil are very deli cate, and reauire well-trained and skilful fingers. With such an expensive article, it Is of the utmost Importance that there shall be as little waste as pos sible, and one of the greatest dilllcullies that the manufacturers have to contend with is to train their employes Into an appreciation of the value of the material they are handling, and to educate that fine sense of touch which is essential lu the manipu lation of the silk. The best workmen employed by Messrs. ltschner A Co. are Imported from Europe, but they have also a large number of girls and boys that have been educated in the factory. For a year or two the labor of these hands was a dead loss; but they are now beginning to acquire the skill neces. nary ta do line work, and the prospects are that there will In the future be no dilllculty about ob taining skilled labor. The wages of these operatives averages $11200 per week ail the year round, and for their accommodation there are twenty-four neat houses erected near the factory. Many women take work home with them, and this Is considered In some respects a great advantage, as the children become accustomed to seeing the silk going through ihe various processes, and from their earliest lu Jancy they acquire an appreciation of its value and the care that is required in handling it, bo that when ihcy come to work in the factory they become proll- ient sooner than perfectly greeu hands. The factory coLtains In all seventy-five looms, forty of which have the Jacquard attachment. These tnrn out about 10,000 yards of ribbon per day. Most Of the looms arc made In .Switzerland, as, indeed, IB all of the (Incut machinery. The Jacquard loom Is a beautiful piece of mechanism, upon which all the figured designs which appear on silks and ribbons are woven. Jacquard, the inventor of this apparatus, was a straw hat niiMiufacturer at Lyons. I lis attention was first directed to the subject of mechanical invention by seeing in a newspaper an oiler of a reward for a machine for making nets, lie produced a machlue, but dlil not claim the reward. The circumstance be came known to some person in authority In Paris, Jacnuard was sent for. Introduced to Napoleon, and was employed to correct the defects of a loom be longing to the State, on which large sums of money had been expended. Jacquard said that ho could f roduce the effects intended oy lar simpler means, le was reauested to do so, and, Improving upon a model of Vaucanson, he produced the apparatus that bears his name, no returned to J.yons witn a pen sion of looo crowns, but his Invention was viewed with much mlBtrust by the weavers, and they at' tempted to suppress it by violent means. Other countries, however, appreciated the invention and brought it Into successful operation, rivalling and even surpassing the products of the French looms, which brought the Lyons weavers to their senses. The Jacquard apparatus consequently soon got Into general use in tne suk, musnn, ana woonen maim factoring districts of England and France. The Jaeauard aiwaratus Is not a loom, but an ap pendage to one. It is attached to the upper part of the frame, and its function Is to raise- the warp threads In the order and number required for the pattern for the passage of the shuttle. These threads are raised by a numter of wire hooks arranged in rows. These hooks are supported by bars, and the bars are supported by a frame which is alternately raised and lowered by the proper mechanism. If the bars are all raised at the same time, all the warp threads will be elevated ; but if some of the hooks are pushed off of the bars, while others are allowed to remain on, such warp threads only will be raised as are connected with the engaged hooks. To dis engage the hooks from the bars, they are attached by loops In horizontal wires, which are kept In posi tion by spiral springs contained in a frame, and with, the points of the wires protruding from the opposite S de. If the points of the wires are pressed with any force, they are driven Into the frame and tuo books disengaged from the threads. When the pres sure is removed, the springs drive the wires forward and restore the hooks to their position. The method of driving back the wires Is by means of a revolving bar of wood of four Bides, each side being peirced with holes corresponding In number and position With the points of the horizontal wires. One of the bides of this bar is brought up against the points of the wires alternately as It revolves, aud if the sides of the bar were alone opposed to the points, they would simply enter the holes, and no effect would be produced ; but If some of the holes ba stopped, while others are left open, the wires which touch the Stopped holes will be driven back and the hooks dis engaged, while those which enter the holes would remain undisturbed, and the warp threads at tached to their vertical wires would be raised. This stoppage of some of the holes In each face of the revolving bar is effected by covering it with a card containing holes corresponding to those in the bar, but fewer In number; bo that when the ?iolnts of the wire come , in contact with an uuper orated part of the card they are driven back, but when the points enter the holes of the card the wires are not moved, and consequently the hooks remain in their oars, uy mis coninvauce tne intended pattern Is made out. if the pattern Is complicated, the number of curds is very considerable. The re volving bar presents a new card to the points of the wires at every quarter revolution, the holes in the cards being so arranged as to raise In succession those threads which will make out the Intended pattern, and it la necessary that there shall be as many cards as there are threads of weft. A portrait of Jacquard woven In silk by the Lyon Hesu weavers, representing himMn his workshop, sur rounded by his Implements, and planning the con struction of the apparatus which bears his name, required 4,000 cards, each card being large enough to receive low) holes. The cards are fastened together lu an endless chain, one complete revolu tion of which makes out the pattern. In preparing these cards It is necessary first to make out a design, on lined paper, similar to that used for worsted work patterns ; each of the spaces inclosed between the lines represents a thread, and after the pattern Is made, the holes for the cards are calculated from it by a simple process, aud the holes are punched bv a machlue provided for the purpose. The Jacquard loom Is used for all .kinds of figured work on silk goods. There Is no demand for figured ribbons at present, and the Jacquard looms of imchner A Co. are mostly employed ou plain goods. They have, however, recently turned out some ex cellent specimens of Jacquard work In the shape of badges, business cards, etc. A view of their fac tory, which we have before us, is a line sample of w lutt can be doue by this process. It has been up-hill work to get this factory firmly established, and Its proprietors have had to contend with Innumerable illitlcultles which could not be .foreseen, aud which had to be met aud overcome as thy aroft. The factory, however, Is now working under tne must i nc our,ng huhoicch, and In lurmiM out goods that will eornparc favorably with those from Koropr an looms. This buslr ess of manufao luring ribbons I an Important addition to the Indus tries of Philadelphia; It not only employs a large number of hands, hut It Is an Introduction to a more extensive manufacture of the finer fabrics for which we are now entirely dependent upon Europe. Our description of the factory of Messrs. ltschner' Co. Is necessarily Incomplete, but It Is to be hoped that we have said enough to snow what Is being done In this line, and to excite some Interest among thoso who have loiked npon ribbons as only bits of finery that are not worthy of serious consideration.
