CITT BULLETIN. THE AMERICAN BUTTON HOLE. AND SEWING MACHINE COMPANY.—The build ing at the corner of Washington avenue and Twentieth street, Twenty-sixth Ward, for merly occupied by the American Attila ManufacturingiCompany, has recently been fiat d up by a newly organized corporation, called the American Button Hole and Sew ing Machine Company, for the purpose of making the American sewing maohine,with button-bole attachment. There are also at this establishment a machine for sewing woven stockings, and also another for sew ing carpets. These articles will soon be paned in the market. The work performed by this beautiful machinery is really .wonderful. The establishment is not in full working order, but everything to this effect will be , arranged in a short time. Yesterday after soon a large number of gentlemen were present by the special invitation of the Di rectors of the Company. Massachusetts, New York and other Eastern places were pretty well represented. A sumptuous banquet was spread in the upper story of the works. After the inspection of the works, Col. Thomas Fitzgerald, having been called to the chair, read the regular toasts, which were responded to by gentlemen se lected for the occasion. George J. Richard son, 'Esq.;' the president of the company, gave a brief though compreheneive history of the establishment. The button-hole making machine is . a great curiosity. It is capable of stitching two button holes per minute, the work being veryeven and beau tiful. The machine for sewing stockings is a wonderful pieceof mechanism, its work being accomplished.without leaving a ridge on the seam. The machine for sewing car pets may really be, considered the wonder of ihe age. One of them has been in use at the establishment of the; Messrs. Orne, ou Chestnut street above Ninth, for some time. The machinery for producing these ma chines is very extensive and costly. It is estimated that the works will nroduce two hundred machines per week. ft is the only institution of tinftind in the city of Phila delphia. The several machines made by the com pany are protected by eighteen different patents, and their simplicity, the efficiency of their operation, as well as the superiority of the workmanship displayed in their con struction, show that the highest order of talent has been employed in perfecting them. Some of the machines are so con vertible, by means of a slight adjustment of the mechanism that they can produce several varieties of embroidering, binding and sewing machine stitches; one machine may thus be used for a number of pur poses. One of the most serviceable is the family button-hole sewing machine; this is light and extremely simple in its construction, sew a neat and uniform binding over the edge of the smallest button hole in the finest linen in less than half a minute,whili, the parts may be easily adjusted so r t o makb an ordinary sewing stitch t The carpet sewing - Maddne attracted AniCh gii 3 ntiC.ll 4 Tills Machine is somewhat larger than the button-hole machine, al though in many respects similar to it in construction. A carriage which runs on rails in front of the machine-stand holds the breadths of carpet sothat their edges shall be penetrated by ;the needle. The stitch made by the machine is of such of a character that the sections of carpet are mach more securely !listened together than by the ordinary hand stitch; in fact, the breadths will be held to gether even where those portions of the stitch at the underside of the carpet-are worn away. An exceedingly . valuable machine is one for overstitching, intended mainly for sew ing stockings, although it may be so ad justed as to make the ordinary sewing stitch. Many persons suppose that knitted stockings are produced entire by the ma chines which form the fabric. This is not the case; the fabric doming from the ma chine in breadths, and being afterwards cut in sections, which are sewed together by Land. The manual labor required to stitch the sections together renders it difficult to manufacture the stockings with the desired rapidity, and greatly increases the cost of the same ; many attempts have therefore been made to substitute machine-work for the hand-labor, but hitherto without sue- The stocking stitching machine exhibited by the Company has fully withstood every test which could be applied to it. It is quite small and like all the other machines it is extremely simple and works with great rapidity, while stockings sewed by it are far superior in appearance to those finished by hand. This machine was spoken of in the highest terms by those acquainted with those classes of , manufactures in which it could be applied. At the banquet addresses were made by Idr. Davis, of Boston, Mr. Charles Camblos, Mr. Joseph Miller, Mr. Casper Souder, Mr. Francis Wells and others. Mr. Camblos eulogized Pennsylvania eloquently. Mr, Solider 'spoke of Philadelphia and her lead ing position as a manufacturing city. He alluded to the fact that most of the ma chinery used in making the button-hole machines had been built to make breech-loading rifles. This reminded him of turning swords into plough -shares and spears into pruning hooks. Mr. Wella's remarks were characteristically humorous, and he, gave a number of capital puns on sewing machines, &e. His remarks were greeted with great applause. Mr. Davis's remarks were eulogistic of "The Press." Altogether the affair was a very pleasant pne. We may add that the invention of the principal machine on which the company bases its success is the invention of Mr. George Rehfuss. We must also not forget that to the efforts of Mr. Henry. Jones, the celebrated caterer, the splendid character of the banquet was:due. Tam GAS Irrvzsinciariox.—The • Select Council Committee, appointed to investi gate the management of the Philadelphia Gas Works, met yesterday afternoon and last evening, and examined several wit nesses in reference to the quality of coal used, its cost, er,e.. Mr. Charles Thompson jones,'the President of the Board of Trus tees was also examined, and during the in vestigation he stated that the "loss by leak age at the works in 1864 was 83,390,575 cubic feet, less 1,654,800 furnished Sanitary Fair, consumed in offtees, Ltd. The loss from the same cause in 1865 was 112,179,849 cubic feet. He also stated that the greatest loss in any one year was when the greatest amount of street main was laid. In 1863 the pipe laid amounted to 126,873 feet; in 1864 to 39,046, and in 1865 to 90,170. In 1864 there was made 794,676,000 cubic feet of gas, and 85,211 tons of coal used. In 1865 the gas made amounted to 844,516,000 cubic feet, and the cast of the coal carbonized in 1865 was $ll 40 per ton of 2,240 pounds. STEAMSHIP LAIIMCHED.-A sunstantially built steamship, called Wyoming, of one thousand tons, was launched yesterday af ternoon, from the National Shin Company's Yard, at Raighn's Point.

Mr. Editor: This time I was among the number able to get into the lecture-room of the Franklin Institute and witness the experiments and hear the lecture on Galvanism. By going half an hour before the appointed time I procured a very nice standing place in a corner of the build ing behind the lecturer,And had a fine view of the back of the lecturer and the audience. Still the lecture was so clear, the explana tions made everything so plain, and what I could see of the experiments was so,novel and beautiful that I was quite willing to stand an hour and a quarter, and only sorry to notice so many persons anxious to at tend, turned away from the impossibility of getting in. The side rooms used as labora tories, the steps of the stairs behind the table, every vacant space among the ap •paratus—all were filled with attentive hearers and eager gazers. And I felt that after all my corner was not so bad a place, considering. I ioresume a full account of this lecture will be given by some one more scientific than myself, in which its details will be presented to your readers. My own im pressions are mainly of a very clear expo sition of the nature of Electricity, Galvan ism and Magnetism, and some exceedingly beautiful experiments made with a power ful Galvanic battery. No words of mine can describe the effect of the Galvanic pile on pieces of carbon and a globule or sliver ex posed to the current. The wonderful light —the beautiful colors which played around the burning charcoal and glowing silver, the wonderful dew-drops of the precious metal which gathered thickly around the carbon points, all presented a spectacle of surpassing brilliancy and wonder. To tell the truth, I rather congratulated myself on my corner, for though inconve nient, it was close to the screen, and ena bled, me to see all the surpassing details of these splendid experiments, many of which must have been less clear to those who were seated at the further end of the room. Once more we would suggest to the direc tors of the Franklin Institute, so long and so justly regarded as the warmest patrons of all true - science, that a larger lecture room should be provided for the accommo dation of the crowds who show their desire to attend the popular lectures delivered by its several professors and members. Personal. Colonel W. G. Freeman, for many years a resident of Washington, died on Tuesday , night of paralysis. He was born in Vir ginia; entered the Military Academy July, 1830; graduated July, 1834; was commis sioned and brevetted second lieutenant in the 4th regiment artillery, and rose step by step until he was appointed assistant adiu tant general in 1841, with brevet rank of major; was promoted to be assistant adju tant general with the rank of major in 1847, and was brevetted lieutenant colonel in 1846. He Served with distinction in the Mexican war, and resigned in 1856. The Brie Canal Break.

The handsome bust of he great Nag' gl ish Libexal, Richard Cobden, referred to has reached this city, and now adorns one of the drawing-rooms of the Union t League. No. 1711 SPETTOE STREET, RECLLADELREIA., Sept. 29th, 1866.— T. Gillingham Fell, Esq., President Union League, Philadelphia: DEAR SlR—When recently in Lonslon, Mr. James McHenry consigned to: my care a superb bust of Richard Cobden, with the re quest that I should, in his name, present'it to the Union League of Philadelphia. Mr. McHenry cherishes the' most agreea ble memories of the attention which he and his English friends received during their brief stay in our city, last autumn, and as a slight evidence of his regard, asks the League to Accept the bust of the great English Libe ral and friend of American Institutions. I remain your obedientaervant, LEWIS H. REDNER. ITNioN LEAGUE HOUSE, Qotober 12, 1866. —Tames McHenry, Esq.—DEAR SIB: I have; been instructed by the Board of , Director& of the Union League, of Philadelphia, 4 , 3 thank you on behalf of the League, for your: tasteful liberality in,presenting our associa tion with an admirably executed marble bust e4d.tre great English Liberal, Richard Cob- , den, which was presented to us through Mr. i Lewis H. Redner. Cobden's name is as" widely known and as deeply reverenced int America as though he bad been one of our: own statesmen. Every American, who( looks; into the sculptured face of Cobden,, feels that he is looking into the face of , a; friend ; and it , would not have been within' the ability of any one to have presented us; with a work of art for which'we could have been more truly grateful than that which; you have so generously bestowed. We shall , never forget how firmly Cobden advocatedi the theories and the practices of our fortni of National Government while we were: testing their merits through 'a long and. prosperous peace, nor how staunchly and' hopefully he threw the powers of his vast intelligence on our side, when our popular institutions were endur-' ing a trial of civil war that few monarchies of Europe could successfully 'have resisted. One of our deepest sorrows is, that the profound statesman whose image you have set up amongst us did not live to share our triumph, and to point his prophetic finger at the fulfilment of his memorable predictions We have placed Cobden's bust - in the . most frequented room of our house, where it has been a centre of interest and venera tion since the day of its arrival, and where it Will continue so to be when time has tinted,tknsi mellowed its n01)29 lines, and removed the menial i! the main to that historical distance, at which the whole world will be able to take in the gigantic proportions of his intellect and the lofty height and purity of his moral nature. You, particularly Sir Morton Peto and your other English friends, have left behind you many kindly feelings in the hearts of our members, and many pleasant remem brances of your brief visit to the League House. Its doors will always stand open to receive you, should you revisit America, and there will be hundreds of hands within the doors, to make you as welcome as though you were passing the - threshold of your own house. With my best wishes for your continued health and happiness. I remain, dear sir, Your obd't servant, GEO. H.
