Fulghum's Improved Saw Mill.

We visited the establishment of Mr. Fulghum on Saturday last, for the purpose of witnessing the operations of his recently patented improvement upon the Saw Mill. The one now in operation is designed and only capable of sawing a log four feet long, and is now used for sawing out broom handles, and anything of that character. It has circular saws, one running perpendicularly, and the other horizontally, cutting two lines at the same time. The log revolves at every passage of the saws, and thus a piece is taken out each time the saws pass. Its simplicity is a distinctive feature; and having been so thoroughly and practically tested, there cannot now exist any doubt of its utility. It requires far less power than the sash saw mills, and can be made to answer every purpose, except that of sawing larger such as joist, scantling, flooring, weatherboarding or anything of this kind it is a great improvement. Jesso M. Hutton, of this city, is the general agent for the sale of State, County and Individual Rights. Any information desired in regard to this mill can be obtained by addressing him at this place.
