  MR. HADDOCK. This gentleman has not applied his mechanical studies merely to the completion of his Androides (sic).  He has made several improvements in the manufacture of paper, and has presented for public inspection to the Dublin Society of Arts and Sciences, a model of a machine to facilitate the manufacture of that article, and also deposited in the same establishment specimens of paper made from hay, straw, potatoe (sic) stalks, and other vegetable substances, that were never known to possess that property.  And since his arrival in the U. States, he has invented an apparatus for the manufacture of artificial mineral waters of every description, (which he attested before the Mayor of New York.)  We understand that he means to fix his residence in Boston; and on that account, it is expected he will close his exhibition of Androides (sic) next week.  We would therefore advise those who have not seen this innocent and rational entertainment, not tp let it pass off without beholding what they will never have an oportunity (sic) of enjoying again.
