In conclusion, we ask you to take urgent and prompt measures iu behalf of those we*“ represent, and wo re ly on your nobleness and impartia ity of character to do us jurtice in the examination. Our memorial is sigued b/ over ten thousand names, collected in less than two day9. The following is a verbatim report ol the reply of Governor Swann : Mr. Chairman and Oemlnnen of the Committee: I regret most exceedingly the cause which has brought you here to-day. You must recollect that I am Gov ernor of the wfcojo Btafce of Maryland, and not ol a part. In the discharge of my official duties here, I can know no party nor interest in this 8tate but the interest of the. whole State of Maryland. • Coming as you do, gentlemen, representing this large e einent of our population, fpointing to the me morial and other documents laid before him by the qommittee,) with affidavits and testimon* which you The Arrow Tic. It has been well remarked that great emergencies develop human ingenuity by stimulating the latent aulaod inventive capacity of a people, and especial ly of a progressive-people; and surely no intelligent pbeorver can have fhiled to notice at least some of llic- numerona Inventions and improvement* bt our day, affording as they do increased facilities for the general transaction of business, and greater ease and security in the handling and transportation of merchandise and produce from one market to another. Prominent among the changes that are occurring, we desire to invite the attention of those interested to the fact that, within the last few year**, Iron has been extensively introduced as a substitute for rope, aunl in almost every instance demonstrating met the change has been advantageous. The meet remarkable change, however, has taken place within the hist ten or twelve years, when iron first began to be need in the place of rope f_r baliug cotton. . „■ * 4 What led to the invention oT the irbn band was the fact that rope being so expansive and elastic, bales of cotton Ixmnd with this material, in many instance* nearly donbled their siae before they reached the end of the voyage, as compared with their measure ment when first placed on board. The chief ad van-, tage, therefore, which iron hooping possesses Aiver rope is found In its non-expansiveness. By the use of iron hands this most serious. inconvenience can he avoided, for they secure a bale so firmly tk*t expan sion is impossible, and- » bals do secured has -eiactly the same cubic measurement when it is tak£n from the ship's bold, afters long voyage, that it had when it whs first taken from the press. Another most im portant advantage derived lrom the use ol the irfn band is that the bale, by being rendered moresom- pact, 1iXi» g much smaller surface exposed to damage, as it it almost impervious to vaster and alukost incon sumable by fire. Concerning the "arrow tie” we wish to aav a few words; and perhaps we cannot do belter in the out set than to let the Liverpool Journal, of March 29th, 1865, speak for ns. It says: "With regard to fasten ing bands with the ‘Arrow Tie/ we would say • word. The principal requirements for each an object are simplicity, rapidity and perfection in fastening. ' They are all supplied by the Arrow Tie, which ia ample iu design, rapid in its application, and periect in accom- pltsuing the purpose for which it is designed. The tin is now chiefly used in tlis States (United States), India, Egypt and South America, and has given uni versal satisfaction. We have seen some bales pressed to m density of thirty pounds to tho cubic foot, and fastened with the arrow tie iron bands, hoisted' into a store in this town, after u voyage from Bombay, and thrown oat of a window without losing one of the bands. The bales in question were ot ibe same cubic measurement when they arrived i£ Liverpool as when shipped at Bombay. -A number of experiments were recently instituted, under the direction of Dr. Forbes Watson, the Gov ernment reporter on the products of India, and Gen. Frederick Cotton, of Hfer Majesty’s Madras engineers, with the Cumulative Ppwer Colton Press, in which the bole, when compressed, was fastened with the ar row tie and iron bands, in the space of thirty seconds. The result was so satisfactory that Dr. Watson, in a report to the Secret-ry of State, suggesting certain experiments with India cotton, and which we ob serve are now being carried out by the Bombay Gov ernment, remarks : ‘It will be necessary to have the bales bound with iron bands, and fastened with the arrow tie, which appears to be not only the most ef fective, but the most readily applied contrivance yet devised for the purpose.’ Dr. Wataon further says : ‘In a series of experiments recently conducted un der my direction, iu Liverpool, at a number of which Gen. Frederick Cotton was present, the time required to fasten the bands ou each balk in no case exceeded half a minute, whilst in some, fifteen seconds suf ficed, all that is wanted being a certain but easily ac quired dexterity in adjusting the ties.’ ’* Coming from such a scarce, the testimony in favor Of the arrow tie ia worthy of consideration. But all that is claimed for tho arrow tie in Great Britain ia also claimed for it here iu the cotton-growing States; for it has been introduced throughout them all,.and it gives universal satisfaction. Experiments and a fair trial in England and in this country prove conclusively that the objections raised by rival patentees of ties, that the arrow tie acks strength, are without foundation. A stronger.4»n«l more durable tie has never been introduced in. any country. Letters from Texas and from all parts pf the country go to prove that wherever the arrow tie has been used, it has taken precedence over all others. The bands which are accompanied by the arrow tie are long enough for the largest bale, and can instantly be adapted to the size of any bale, whilst in the press, as quickly and with the same ease aa ropes. They are prepared of superior Loop, cut to uniform lengths of ten and eleven feot, and put up iu bundles uf thirty* five bands and ties each, complete and inseparable until opened for use. Messrs. Given, Watts L Co., 186 Cameron street, or Mr. H. T. Bartlett, General Agent, 28 Csrondelet street, New Orleans, will furnish to on dor printed directions for working these bauds and ties, so that every planter can use them. without the slightest difficulty. The agents for these bands and ties possess unpre cedented facilities for obtaining supplies direct from the patentee, under whose eye they are all manuiac- _ . . . fared.
