On Hu- Uo'l I rulluiliHl ii c of I*llll' ami ullifr l«ire»l Ti'cn tor lilt* Nlititmaelilre of 'l'lir- Tar Film. Pyroilg ncoit. Arid, ami other I'm dtlClH. Tlio following article is from the pttti of a Genii an Manufacturer — written for and copied from the Atlan ta Dutchif Zritnng upon the value of pine and other timber—e*q»ccially pine. tVe would not like to ho called a sensationalist; hut, tlio ideas set forth below, are in aceordnnce with our own views, and we think some of the suggestions should l>e howled — especially when we reflect upon the gradual exit of profitable laborers for the cotton-fields. We have all the requisites—for manufacturing, in the work spoken of—talent, capital, and pine land—the time will come, when if we do not enter into it, the ingeni ous Yankee will. Why not let him continue Ids “Wooden hum and nut meg” making if he desires to, and those who huve the means already at hand, apply them to the building up of their own fortunes. ('no of the greatest opportunities for the development ot an immense manufacturing interest otters itself to the practical and enterprising technic al chemist in the proper usage of the vast forests of the United States, and more particularly the pine forests of the Southern States. A comparatively small commence ment Inis been made in some portions of the Southern States in this direc tion. It consists principally iu tho distillation of spirits ui turpentine, and tho manufacture of rosin, pitch, tar, and pyroligneous acid, directly from the wood, by burning it in kilns. Both proscsscr, us they aro practiced here, are excessively coarse and un practicable. The first because it yields only the thick, unrefined tur pentine, with forty per cent, of dirt and foreign material, which is export ed to tho Northern States for refine ment, and which, in consequence of t iis imjiurity, brings at least forty per cent, less in price, and pays other e.\- pensos on forty por eeut. ol dirt. The manufacture of turpentine, however, even in this crude manner, is general ly a profitable business. The second process—that of burn ing tlio pine wood into rosin, pitch and tar, in coarse kilns—is a still more impracticable and unprofitable method. Five parts of the value of tho wood are lost in this process, and h ’uce the sixth part of its value alone has to pay for all the expenses of cut ting and burning the wood. A tar oven, as it is used in the Old World, belongs to the unknown things in the woodland districts of tho (South, und almost the United (States. Tho branch of industry to which we allude consists in a e >mplete decompo sition of the wood of tlio pine and oth er forest trees, by one chemical pro cess and aparatus, in their constitu ent parts in such a manner that the w hole weight of the wood used is re turned in the weight of tlio articles manufactured. The different articles manufactured by this process out of one cord of pine wood are as follows : Spirits of turpentine, 1500 lbs ; tar and pitch, 000 lbs; pyroligneous acid, 835 lbs ; gas, 300 lbs ; and water, (useless,) 123 lbs ; —say 2,100 1 is. At the pres ent prices, at New York market re ports, the value ot these articles would be as follows : 02 11 is. spirits of tur pentine, 0i gallons, at 47 ets. per gal lon, $4,40 ; (500 lbs. tar and pitch, 50 gallons, at $ ets. per gallon, $4 ; 335 lbs. pyroligneous acid, 05 lbs. acetate of liiuo, at 8 ets. per pound, $7,(50. — llenoe, one cord of pine wood would bring the amount ot $I b. The amount of coal and gas not calculated will be used as material for heating kettles and retorts—so that only J 23 lbs. of water out of the whole weight of one cord of pine wood of 2,100 lbs. will remain without being made valuable. According to my latest calculation 4 retorts and aparatus and fixtures generally manufacturing 115 cords of wood monthly into these articles would require a building capital of $5,000, and would turnout 1,0(50 gallons of spirits of turpentine, at 47 ets. per gal lon, $498,20; 5,750 gallons of tar and i pitch, at 8 ets. per gallon, $1150; (5,140 i gallons ol pyroligneous acid or 10,0(54 j lbs._acetate of lime, at 8 ets. per lb., £*77. Amounting iu all to $1,835,82. Kj'paascH : 115 cords pine wood, at $1,50 per cord, $172,50 ; 4,100 lbs. of lime, S2B; freight on 10,9(54 lbs. ace tate of limo to Philadelphia, $100,(54 ; wages to 8 bauds for 1 month, at SSO p t month, SIOO. Amount iu all to ! $710,10. Net profit for one month, $1,125.18. This is already a very neat profit, but it can still be largely increased by the manufacture of ehips-pitch and beer-pitch out ol the tar, infeiioi py roligneous acid or any resinous sub stances that, can be cheaply procured hy purchase. All quantities and qualities of rosin andt ir, which can be manufactured into these two arti cles at a very nice profit. bhips-pitch is almost alwavs in great demand. It generally ranges in the New Orleans market at $5 per barred, and is to-day quoted in the Cincinnati market reports at from gfi to 8 c per barrel. It can be sold in enormous quantities. One hand can, in kettles similar to large soap-kettles manufacture 20 to 25 barilla pbr day. lhe expenses of manufacturing it m>r barrel,, will not exceed *1,25. The same is the case in manufacturing beer-pith, of which the breweries of ot. Louis alone consumes 500 barrels , yearly. The raw materials for the ' manufacture of this article now, are j almost exclusively obtained from the i iSouth, while the article itself, up to this date, is almost exclusively manu factured in the city of New York ! This article can 'bo manufactured j without expense apparatus, at the ex pense of 554 per barrel, while the New York wholesale price is cts. per lb. ov sll per barrel. Another product for profitable man- j ufacture would l>e the extract and thej oil of the pine leaves, the pyroligneous , acid, the extract of oak Imrk and su mac and other articles too to mo us to mention in this place. The pyrolignci itm acid is manufac tured into its combinations with lime, iron and soda, constituting salts, which at e largely used in the printing j of cotton goods, dying of wool and iu J the manufacture ol acetate of load, chronmte of potash and numerous oth er articles uml chemicals. One house in Philadelphia, proposes to buy any quantity of these arts lea, that will be ottered for sale. These chemicals are principally imported from England and Germany, as letters from consum ers and manufacturers, in my posses sion, will plainly demonstrate. When the high prices of wood in Europe, the frights, insurance, high tariff, etc., on such articles aro taken into considern theirliigh price cannot he wondered at. These statements, with the one that, otic cold of pine wood can be made to bring SKS, without additional lubrica tion ol the articles are facts based up on chemical analysis and the expe rience gained in Germany during a •Hoi id of 12 \ ears. W. Mkssac. The above article has been publish ed in our paper at tlio request of Mr. W. Messau. He produces certificates, showing that lie has been engaged in the manufacture of tho articles ho speaks of fora number ot years, in Northern Germany. If Ills statements in general are correct, it appears*to us that the manufacture of turpentine and the other articles by his method could be made very profitable in the pine wood region of Southern Geor gia.^ \\ e have no reason to doubt the correctness of' his statements in gener al, but remind the reader, that a proper allowance for fluctuations in the prices of tho different articles should he made. Mr. W. Messau tells us* that he can demonstrate the accuracy of his state ments with the aid of a small appara tus, the cost of which would not ex ceed three hundred dollars. He is desirous to obtain the assist ance of capitalists to establish a facto ry for the manufacture of these arti cles’ Flagrant disfiguration—Advertise ments on the pavements.
