It molt be 1 ta, f.: :i !•> e»(jrr li
beral mind to be Informed of improve
ments m:ide in any branch of bufinela
that leTens cinc:l labour. The fub
jetl matter of this communication to
the public is refpeding pot and pearl- 1
aft. In my travels through the noriiiei n :
kingdoms of Europe, during the lafl I
seven years, 1 have vifned the different j
manufa&ories of pot and pearl-ash, and J
took particular notice of their method*, J
viz. Denmark, Sweden, Poland, Ruffis, |
and Norway. I Have used them in my i
different manufactories many hundred j
thousand pounds weight. To this I
wiH add, I am acquainted with refining
pearl-acts, used by our "glafsmakers in
England for making the fineft double
chrytlal glass.
Lately I was reqiiefted by the Hon.
Judge Wilson, Esq. to havj a vrork e
rected agreeable to Mr Samuel Hop
kins's plan, at this place. An article so
sffential ;o the fail duck manufadtory
claimed my particular attention. Sa
muel Hopkins being infohned, attend
j ed, and ex]>lained the principles of his
improvement, v-hich (from my know,
ledge ofChemiftry, and the experience
1 have had) appeared perfetfliy agreea
ble to reason. I, however, forebore
faying much on the fubjeft, until the
works were completed, and some expe
riments n*.ade f both on a final! and large
scale. This being done to my full fa
tisfacfion, I think it but jnftivC to the
inventor :rt fay, his works are well cbn
llrufted for the business, and, in the
process of saving manual labour, liis
method much exceeds any other I have
seen j the moll cneap, expeditious, and
simple.
I am informed, the large Pot and
Pearl Afli makers, in this country, pur
chase their common black salts of the
poor people, and those men may find
thcmfelres hurt by this plan of Hop
kins's —Be that as it may, they are ob
liged to bring their black salts to Pearl
Aih by extraordinaiy labour, which
this method saves, and is simple and ea
sy, so that any labouring man may
make his goods himfelf, and fend them
to market.
I am apprehensive (and that from
proof) that Hopkins has been injured
through the careleffncfs or inattention
of the workmen, viz. in not calcining
the allies to that decree required, a
thiug absolutely neccfiavy to be attend
ed to. I have attended the experiment
with attention at this place, and find
that the alhes being, perfefllv calcined
produced a pure and urtcowloured lixivi
um, and from that a pure good Pearl
A(h—whereas those not fufficiently cal
cined produce a red-brown lixivium, and
an impure alkali, not fit for any market.
I am reac'y to meet any prrfcm, on
this head, that may object to Hopkins's
method cither in a chimerical or experi
mental proof, il have heard it said, that
before I saw this method that this new
mode would answer well 011 a small
scale, but not 0:1 a large one—This sup
position is grotridlels.
Mr. Hopkins has my leave to publilh
thiis ifhethinks proper.
