Artificial Leather A correspondent of ihe New
Yoik Advertiser, who has recently visited Abingdon,
Massachusetts, states that going inio a shop a few days
ago, lie witnessed another triumph of art guided by
science. A steam-engine of six or eight horse pow
er is crec'ed for grin, i g ip the chips nnd shavings of
leather winch are cut oli by tne shoe and hoot makers,
and which have-heretolore tieen burnt or thrown awtiy.
These are ground ton powder resembling coarse snuff,
and this powder is then mixed with certain gums and
other substances,so thoroughly, that the whole mass
becomes a kind of melted leather. In a short lime
this driesa little, nnd is rolled out to the desired thick
ness—peihaps oiielwentylourlh of an incr,. It is now
quite soiid, and is said to be entirely waterproof. On
pulling the question whether it was strong, the manu
fac'itrer cut several strips a foot long and “halt at inch
wide, which our iniurun nt etn eavored in vain to break.
This new fashioned leather will make good m
soles lor shoes, ami pernaps inner soles; and wauid be
very durable round the shahs ol a carnage,or in any
p nee where mere chafing sail the wear desired It is
supposed it would v/ear well as bands lor some kids
ol machinery, and will doubtless be used lor many
mher purposes. A patent has been secured, and the
article will soon be in maiket and in use.
