?1Y BRIDE.
I ha'e a bride, a bonny brblc
As any bid may claim; \
Her eyes arc dark, her curls are brown,
Her meek pure brow ue'er wears a Crown,
Aud Mary is her name.
And though she is afar from me,
And years may pass ere I shall see,
That darling one again,
Yet evor hoping I toil on,
And smile whene'er a day is gone,
Be it of joy or pain.
I lia'e a bride, a bonny bride!
One very doar to me,
And yet, when last I pressed her cheek,
And called her name, she would not speak
Or gi'e a smile to me.
1 clasped my darling to my heart,
An icy chill made me to start,
Yet still 1 held her there,
And called on (Jod?the (?od of love?
to scnu a sunocam irae auovc
To warm my i<lol fair;
Hut kind hearts told inc she was dead?
Oh, God, be merciful,' I said ;
That was my only prayer.
This very spring, this blooming spring,
Our bridal was to be.
I ne'er ha'e saw a spring so drear ;
They say the singing birds are here
And flowerets star the lea;
They say the sunshine make all glad :
1 know one bosom that is sad?
Oh, sad as it can be,
And April blooms and summer skies
Look dismal to his tearful eyes?
He hears nae songs o' glee.
I ha'e a bride, a bonny bride!
Though she is far frne me.
And, 'mid the blasts that bear no stain,
Whose foreheads wear the Holy Name,
She's waiting now for me.
And often in the hush of night,
Hope makes my spirit's chamber bright,
And then my love I see.
Her brow is fairer, and her eye
More bright than ere it closed to die,
Yet still it smiles on me.
Oh! how 1 yearn for death to come,
And give to me the heaven-home,
Where Mary waits for me.
ADDENDA.
I Iia'c a bride, a bonny bride
And a glorious one to me,
For though she miss the joys of earth,
Iu heaven 'tis sure she'll bind a berth?
May I her bridegroom be.
They say the world is like a garden wild
And I, alas ! but fortune's child;
Who on its surges toss,
But I have Hope and Faith still left
And never yet have feared the death
That brings me to the cross.
Amusing 3Hi$ffI(ani)
MIKE FINCK AND THE BULL.
The story of Mike Finck and the bull wou
make a cynic laugh. Mike took a notion
go iu swimming, and he had just got his cloth'
oft' when he saw Deacon Smith's bull makii
at him?the bull was a viciousauimal, and lis
come near killing two or three persons?coi
sequently Mike felt rather "jubus." He didn
want to call for help, for he was naked, an
the nearest place from where assistance coul
arrive was the meeting house, which was !
that time filled with worshippers, auion
whom was the "gal Mike was paying his d<
vours to." So he dodged the bull as the an
inal came at him, and managed to catch hii
by the tuil.x He was dragged r- und till nearl
dead, aud when he thought he could hold r
longer, he made up his mind he had bett
" holler." And now we will let him tell h
own story:
So, looking at the matter in all its bearing
T cum to the conclusion that I'd better 1
some one know whar I was. So I gin a y<
louder than a locomotive whistle, and it wan
long before I seed the deacon's two dogs
comiu' down like as if they war seeing whii
could get thar fust. I know'd who they wo
arter?they'd jine the bull again me, I wassf
tin, for they were orful wenomous, and had
spite agin me. So says I, Old brindle, as
din' is as cheap as walkin' on this route,
Al.ioAtinnj T'll lief f'lL-p ft llppl, T?f
JUU (I" IIU WJH.IIVU.J) A J lev v. , sage
on that ar' back o'yourn. So I warr
very long getting astride of him ; then, if you
bin thar, you'd have sworn thai* warn't nothi
human, in that ar' mix, the sile flew so orfi
ly as the critter and I rolled round the fieldone
dog on one side and one on the other, ti
in' to clinch my feet. I prayed and cusse
and cussed and prayed, until I couldn't t<
which I did, at last?and neither warn't of
use, they were so orfully mixed up.
Well, I reckon I rid about half an hour tl
way, when old brindle thought it were time
stop to take in a supply of wiud, aud cool ofl
little. So when we got round to a tree tli
stood thar, he naturally halted. So sez I, c
boy, you'll lose one passenger sartin. So I j
cluni up a branch, kalkelatin' to roost thar t
I starved afore I'd be rid round that ar w
any longer. I war a niakin' tracks for the t
of the tree, when I heard suthiu' a niakin' i
orful buzzin' overhead. I kinder looked u
and if thar warn't?well, thar's no use a swe;
in?but it war the biggest hornet's nest ev
bilt. You'll " gin in" now, I reckon, Mik
'cause there's no help for you. But an id
>i/uck me then that I stood a heap better chan
a ridin' the bull than whar T \vas. Sez I, o
feller, if you'll hold on, I'll ride to the ne
station anyhow, let that be* what it will.
So I jist dropped aboard liiiu again, ai
looked aloft to see what I had gained by cha
giu' quarters, and, gentlemen, I'm a liar if th;
warn't nigh half a bushel of the stingin' wa
mints ready to pitch into me when the woi
'go' was gin. Well I reckon they got it, or c
han<V started for our enmnnnv. Some on e
...... ? I J ?
hit the dogs?about a quart struck me, at
the rest charged on brindle.
This time the dogs led off fust, dead bei
for the old deacon's, and as soon as old brind
and I could get under way we followed, as
was only a deck passenger, and had nothin'
do with steerin' the craft; I sware, if I ha<
we should have run that channel, any how.But
as I said before, the dogs took the leadbrindle
and I next, and the hornets dre'kly a
ter. The dogs yellin'?brindle bellerin', ar
the hornets buzzin' and stingiu'.
Wei, we had got about two hundred yar<
from the house, and the deacon heard us ai
cum out. I seed him hold up his hand ar
turn white. I reckoned he was prayiu' the
for he didn't expect to be called for so soo
and it waru't long neither, afore the whole co
gregatiou?men, women and children cum o
aud then all hands went to yellin*. None
'em had the fust notion that brindle and I b
longed to this world. I jist turned my hei
and passed the hull congregation. I see tl
run would be up soon, for brindle couldc
turn an inch from a fence that stood dei
ahead. Well, we reached that fence, and
went ashore, over the old critter's head, landii
on t'other side and lay thar stunned.
It warn't long afore some of 'em as was n<
scared ourn runnin' to see whar I was; for a
hands kalkelated that the bull and I belonge
together. But when brindle walked off b
himself, they seed how it war, and one of 'ei
said, " Mike Finck has got the wust of
scrummage once in his life!" (lentlemen, 1
from that day I dropped the courtin' buzincss,
and never spoke to a gal since, and when my
hunt is up on this yearth, there won't beany
more Fincks, and its all owiu to Deacon
Smith's Brindle Bull.
JOE BLUNT'S FIRST GAME OF LOO. '
Now Joe Blunt was a young man who had
growed up with good teachings. (I'm jist
telling you as Uncle Joe used to tell it on
himself.) Well, by hook or crook, or howsomever,
he got 'quaintcd with a set of wild
fellows, and, said they, 'Joe, don't you want
to know how to play Loo ?'
'And what's Loo ?' sez I.
'Why, Joe, a pretty little game at cards?
can't loose anything- at it. S'pose you try it,
Joe, I know you knows how to play seven up,
and we'll teach you how to play Loo.'
'Well,' sez I, 'I'" go it.'
Now you see there was Dick Duke and
John Duke, and a great thick headed chap
named Carter Weaver?so we sat down. I
had 'bout five dollars and they 'bout the'same.
Wc 'gan to play it at ten cent's and a quarter
(you sec I learnt it thep, and I can tell it to
vn 11 sfrniorVitv and 'fore lon? all the chance
J C.?J7 O ?- crI
had was up, and tlieru top. 'Twas my deal
and I turned up the six of hearts?I shall never
forget it?for trumps. I raised up my
hand, and there, looking me right in the face,
was the ace, king ahd queen. <()f xjour.se you
I tuk the cakes then, Uncle Joe,' sez I. Let
i me tell you how 'twas. Sez I, 'boys, it's no
use of playing these pap's. I'm got it, sure.'
I was 'bout raking down the stuff, when that
swell-headed Carter Weaver sug out?'Hold
on, Joe, my boy, you ain't got it yet; not so
easy.'
'How come I aiut V says I.
'Play 'em out,' says he, 'and I'll show you.'
'Same thing,' sez I, and I popped down the
queen fust, and he put down the ten spots (he
called it jail windows/) Then I let him have
the king, and he put down the nine spot?and
said I, laughing, 'In course you can't beat the
ace.'
'There,' said he, 'this must be a foul deck,
for darn me if 1 wuntjist playing ofT on Uucle
Joe, for I've got the ace of hearts myself'?
holding down a card with his two thumbs on
the ends?'It's right hard case, Joe, but you
see my ace.'
'Count the cards,' said T, 'count the cards.'
m And I did count the cards, and 'twas all right,
52 in there. 'Well now, let's all take down
the pot,' says Carter, 'and divide equally.'
'All right,' sez I; and so little did I know
| then 'bout the things that I 'spccted that that
scoundrel, Carter Weaver, had the tray of
U hearts between his thumbs. When I thiuk of
Carter Weaver's ace, I cau't help laughing at
es my greenness, but whew ! boys, I'm some now
?that is, folks tells me so.
Well, I vowed I git even with that crab,
..i. .. w.\ Stltrt Onllff il'lV I r.lllv ?*

-t Carter for a game of Loo. Of course he said
j 'yes,' for he 'speeted to pluck me agiu. So
tj we sot at it, Carter and me, and two other boys,
lt aud after a while we got at a smashing loo.?
|fl, I kept my eye on Carter and seed him erib the
^ ace of clubs, aud lay it on his knee, aud pretj
ty soon he got the king and queen too. 1 never
said a word, but the very-next deal up comI
ed a vlub for trumps, and Carter knocked the
table hard for a stand. 'Wehf said he, 'sich
jtards as these is like stealiLf your uiuiwy,
is h?ys-'
'I'll stand,' said I, and I slipped my hand 011>g
to Carter's knee and tuk off the ace, king, and
queen, and put my hand in its place. Iwatcliqj
ed Carter, and quietly put hand dowu and tuk
'?t up the other. Carter had the lead, and with
( a broad grin on his ugly face, sez be, 'Come
q to this one?playing from the back?and down
came the ducce of hearts and I mounted it
(V with the queen of trumps. You ought to have
n jist seeu Carter's face then ; it looked as long
rj as a garden rail; 'and here's the ace aud king
^ too,' sez I, ranking down the pewter. Carter
looked all round the table, aud sez he, dryly,
q 'Gentlemen, I'm goiu' to quit, there's cheat'J
'n? g?i"' ?n here.'
'I thought so, too, Carter,' said T, 'when
ij you found them two aces of hearts in that pack
last week.'
'Let's play on,' said one of the other boys,
j 'Xo, b'lieve not,' sez Carter, aud he left
ejj looking as huffish as an old maid.
uo Now, boys, didn't I gather old Carter that
pop ! And we all used to tell Uncle Joe that
^ he did sure and he'd take a few more whiffs at
tQ his pipe aud leave us with our game.?Spirit

'at WHAT CONSTITUTES RICHES.
^ 'To be rich,' said Mr. Marey, our worthy
,st 'the Secretary of State'requires only a satisfaciN
tory condition of the mind. One man may be
a>- rich with a hundred dollars, while another in
?P the possession of millions, may think himself
an poor; and as the necessities of life are enjoyed
P> by each, it is evident the man who is the best
,r* satisfied with his possessions, is the richer.''
er To i'lustrate this idea, Mr. Marey related
e) the following anecdote :
"While 1 was Governor of the State of New
ce York," said he, "I was called upon one mornId
ing at my office by a rough specimen of a backi
woodsman who silked in and commenced con'
O .!/? A!. A Af. >r..?
versation by inquiring mis wus .m. .u.uid
cy ?'
n- I replied that that was my name.
ar 'Kill Marcy ?' said he. I nodded assent.
r* 'Used to live in Southport, didn't j*e?'
rd I answered in the affirmative, aud began to
'11 feel a litt>e curious to know who my visitor
was, aud what he was driving at.
id 'That's what I told 'em,' cried the backwoodsman,
bringing his hand down on his
at thigh with tremendous force; 'I told 'em you
le was the same old Bill Marcy who used to live
I in Southport, but they wouldn't believe it, and
to I promised the next time I came to Albany to
d> come and see you and find out for sartin.?
? Why, don't you know me, Bill V
? I didn't exactly like to ignore his acquaintf
anee altogether, butforthe life of me I couldn't
?d recollect ever having seen him before, and so
I replied that he had a familiar countenance,
I but that I was not able to call him by name,
'd | 'My name is Jack Smith,' answered the
>d backwoodsman, 'and we used to go to school
u; together thirty years ago in the little red school
u> house iu old Southport. Well, times has changu*
ed since then, and you have become a great
ut man and got rich, I suppose !'
?f | I shook my head and was going to contra
e- diet that impression, when he broke in:
id <Oh, yes, you are; I know you are rich;
lie : no use denying it. You was Controller for?
i't for a long time, and the next we heard of you,
id you were Governor. You must have made a
I , heap of money, aud I am glad of it, glad to
a' see you getting along so smart. You was always
a smart lad at school, and I knew you
at would come to something.'
II I thanked him for his good wishes and opind
ion, but told him that political life did not pay
?y so well as he imagined. ?I suppose,' said I,
n 'fortune has smiled upon you since you left
a J Southport V
'Oil, yes,' said he, <1 hain't got nothing to f
complain of; I must say I've got along right c
smart. You see, shortly after you left .South- s
port, our whole family moved up into Vermont,
and put right into the woods, and I reckon our
family cut down more trees and cleared more
land than any other in the whole State.'
<Aud so you have made a good thing of it.
Mow much do you consider yourself worth?" J
I asked, feeling a little curious to know what i ^
he considered a fortune, as he secuied to be so I
1 ^
well satisfied with his.
'Well/ he replied, <1 don't know exactly
how much I am worth, but I think," straightening
himself up, 'if all my debts were paid,
I should be worth three hundred dollars clean
. a
cash." And he was rich; for he was satisfied.
AN IMPULSIVE EDITOR. v
The Albany Atlas did something so cleverly ;:l
the other day as to betray the Albany llegis- |,v
' * ?? 'i .! ? . 1
ter into tne ioiiowing explosion 01 gramuui- . i
" If the editor of the Atlas will accept a hat, ,s
and can find any body that will charge one to i*
us, he can order it right olf. He has done the A
O
best thing of the season?decidedly the rich- 1
' est. It is so true to nature, too."
To the apparent surprise of the editor of the 1:
Register, the editor of the Atlas did find some *
f one who would charge a hat to him, and in
due time the bill was presented. Whereupon *
the editor of the Register makes the following ' *
] confessions : ; 1
I "We confess to a good deal of verdancy in 1
the matter of this hat. We forgot the compc- (
tition of business, and what risk men will run 1
in disposing of their merchandise. We did j:
not suppose a hatter could be found who would !4
lie green enough to say to the Atlas, 'here i4
take my hat,' on our account; and therefore ; c
felt safe in our generous offer. We thought!(
i the editor would expend a good deal of bootless j1
shoe-leather, in inquiring around town for a 1
cover to his nob. Rut he has 'gone and donb 4
it,' and we acknowledge the corn. We will r
pay for that hat some day, if we have to put '
ourself on short allowance to accomplish the iJ
feat. Rut we submit that in common courtesy, A
and out of respect to our principles, the hat j1
selected should have begti a 'wide awake,' j
Know Nothing, American hat, and not an out- 1
and-out aristocratic beaver. However, this j
being a mere matter of taste, We shan't coin- 1
, plain. Wc ought to have been specific in the 1
matter of description of the hat to be selected, r
And this reminds us of an adventure we had
once in the politico-betting line. We wore a '
great Jackson man, we were, the last time that '
the old General ran for the Presidency, and 1
whenever a Gen. Jackson ruus for that office, '
shall be so again. We lived in the country J 1
then, and had a neighbor who was on the j 1
; other side of the political fence, \\ ho was a > F
! great dealer in horses. Well, we got into au 1
j argument with him one day, and so sure was '
: he of success that he offered to bet a horse !l
i against ?">0 that the old Hero of New Orleans s
would not be elected. We took the bet. The j
argument being one that had no end, was re- |
newed from time to time with the same result, !
it
until five horses ou one side and 8" 50 on the ;
i other were staked on the issue of the election, i V
' We won. J'ut we had forgotten to designate j
| the animals, and such a lot of hor.*es as was i
tendered in payment of the bet was a sight to 3
j see. If there was an ailment to which horse- ^
Hesh is subject that was not exhibited J-y one '
j ul' these five Iuuvpk, we should like tu be in- '
| formed of its diagnosis. There was ringbone. |
1 and spavin, and stringhalt, and blindness, and i'
i heaves, and one venerable old roadster bad all j '
these, and in addition was deaf as a post.? ! |
We kept them a week as a collection of curi- j
osities in the animal line, and then sold them I'
I
at auction. According to our recollection,
lour of them sold for 840, in the aggregate, I
I ' ? * I f
and we gave a tin pedlar 810 for taking the
' other. We have not bet on elections since,
and don't want to win any more horses."
?nn
A SCENE IN COURT. iJ
A very learned and witty member of the j '
bar?or rather bars, for be was as often tight '
as sober?was counsel in rather a bad case in ! f
a court not a thousand miles from I'earl river, 11
the pine land irrigator of the Magnolia State. 1J
He was making a grand close of his argument, ! 1
which, like his case, was clear as mud, when 1
observing the indifference of the court, hcab- 1
ruptlj closed and uttered a .sentiment foreigu 11
to the point at issue. AVhereupon the court, '
with flushed face, cried out 01 r. Clerk, enter | *
a five of twenty-live cents against Mr. Jones.' j1
Council (rising)?If the court please, (hie- ' ^
cup) your honor is laboring under a mistake. 1
Your honor is entirely mistaken. (Hiccup.):
Will your honor be pleased to (hiccup)*reflect '1
and reconsider the subject, and (hiccup) and '1
advise me of the nature of my offence.
! Court (sternly)?You said 'Damn this!*
court, sir."
Co unset, (bowing, smiling deprceatingly 1
and hiccoughing slightly.) There?there? 1
your honor! if the court please I was sure J 1
your honor was entirely mistaken?( hiccup) 1 ! '
was sure of it?most positive. Your honor |
did not understand me. I have the profoun- 1
i dest (hiccup) respect for this court, the pro?

fur if the court please I did not say 'damn this

I another court as this." ; j
THE SECRECY OF MASONRY. 1
. We get from the Boston (Jazctte a very
good story of a wife, whose husband was a ve- i''
ry worthy practical member of the Order of 1
Tree Masons. It seems that one evening a , (
bundle came to the house, marked for him, j 1
and labelled 'Private.' Of course this was | [
sufticienPfor female curiousity, and therefore 11
she indulged in an inspection. Horror ofhor- ! *
, rors ! Blankets, baby's linen, &c. greeted her ; 1
astonished eyesight, and dreames of 'two fami- i'
; lies" floated through her brain. The hus- j 1
baud soon came in, and after tea, when his i [
wife discovered in his eye the treachery of 1
his conduct, as supposed, he took the bundle 4
and went out?but not alone, for the jealous 1
wife was on his track. The faithless husband j4
little imagined that she who supposed herself ' *
J^o foully wronged was hovering after him.? j *
He stoppg(t$ ttjt the house of a friend, who also il
"^oiueddum !?'carrying a similar bundle. The c
wife doubtly excited, for the prospect 1 a
of having a companion in misery did not im- j c
( press her with the idea of a division of her ! s
grief, but only an addition to it. She follow-j (l
ed closely, and soon they halted before a small ' t
tenement, which they entered. Here she r
paused to hold a council of war. What tac- j F
! tics to ?qj{low she was in doubt, but determin- ! F
I e^^lengthio storm the citadel. She knock- c
ed, and hastily brushed by a little child, aud *
i iu a second burst upon the astonished husband }
the embodiment of injured innocence. Her
feelings were about to express themselves, c
when the scene before her caused her to re- ! 0
fleet. A poor woman on a sick bed, a babe '
not old enough for christening, a child in a
crib, aud two little girls in a bed met her eye. |
She read the story at a glance, and returned j b
home under escort of her husband and his 11<
making an ointment that lias been thoroughly
tried and found good for sprains, bruises,
swellings, burns, cuts, &c. &c.; and wishing
to have it generally known I hand you for
publication the following recipe.
Take stramonium, (Jiiusun leaves,) pound r
them well, put them into an iron kettle, adding ;
lard cuougli to cover them ; let them simmer v
over a slow fire till the leaves will crisp; then
strain it through a cloth and let it cool.
I used this ointment on a colt that had been
lame for six months with a sprained knee, af-!
ter trying various medicines without receiving a
any benefit, and this cured her within a week p
she not having been lame since although it is c
riend, who assured her that she had discoverd
the great secret of Masonry.

IMPOVING FARMS.
In a recent address by CI. T. Stewart, Esq., 1
>eforc the Ohio Agricultural Society, he thus
peaks on this subject:
Many farmers are destroying the produciveness
of their farms by shallow work. As
hey find that their crops are diminishing, they j
hink only of extending their acres of surface, ,
is if they supposed their title deeds only gave ,
hem a right to six inches of earth. If they ;
vill take those deeds, study their meaning, !
md apply the lesson to their fields, they will
oon realize in threefold crops, the fact that the
aw has given them three farms where they
aipposcd they had only one; in other words,
hat the subsoil, brought up and combined
vith the top soil, and enriched with the ntmosihcric
influences, and those other elements
vhich agricultural science will teach them to
ipply to their ground, will increase threebid
the measure of its productiveness.
To show to what extent the fertility of the ]
;oil can be increased, I ruler to a statement in
lie last Patent Oflice Report. In the year
IS.")0 there wrc nine competitors for the prenium
corn ctops of XenfMeky, each of whom
cultivated ten acres. Their average crop was
ibout 122 bushels per ntrfc. At that time the
tverage crop of wheat per acre in the harvest
>f Great Rritain on soil cultivated for centuri;s
was about double that produced on tlic virgin
soil of Ohio. Why is this? Simply be;ause
Rritish farmers arc educated men and
ipply work wisely. They pay back to the
>arth what they borrow; they endeavor by
.'very means in their power to enrich their
ground, and in turn it enriches them. If our
'armors, instead of laboring to double their
icres, would labor to double their crops, they
vould lind it a vast saving of time and soil,
mil an increase of profits.
Many of thcifi never think of digging 10
nches into the soil, unless they have dreamed
ibout a crock of gold hiddeil in the earth ; but
f they would set about the work of digging
11 i?.. i i.:. i
ii earnest, every man wouiu miu ma uwn m
jold without the aid of dreams or divination, j
We have great advantage over British farners
in the fact tliat our farmers ucarly all
mid the lands which they cultivate in fee suii- (
)le, while in Knglaml they are chiefly tenants,
living the land of the nobility, paying cnornous
rents to the proprietors, besides heavy
axes tVthe government. Taxes here are comlarativcly
light, and our farmers are their own
andlords. lleuce they have been able to pay
hrec-fold wages; for labor to those in Kurope,
md the cost of tVgnsporatioii, and y?*t underell
the British farmer.- in their own market.
ABOUT THE TOMATO.
There is no, vegetable tliM requires less care
han the tomato, where a general crop only is
ranted; but to have it fresh all the year
ound, which is no dillicult matter, there will
lave to be succession .-tocks of young plants,
,nd the convenience of*a hot-house or glazed
>it, for winter fruiting.
Almosiiony uj^J-oil v^ill an.-wir for th>
omato; out it prospcty b- t, aiiu pvoduct'S
ruit of a finer qualifv^iu a well-drained, tulrable
fertile, but not over rich loose mould.?
'o soon as all danger of frost is past, begin to
Jnnt /mi- - W>,;pn nn the soil Well, die holes
bur feet apart, six inches (loop, and as many .
icross: lift each planfrVith a ball of earth, do
Kit keep the roots exposed longer than is no essury,
and in fixing the plants in holes, let
hem be placed aboirt the same depth us they
vevo previously; cover up and press the soil
omcwhat around the neck, and lift a little
ip to it, which will encourage fresh roots and
itrcngthen the plant. If the weather be dry,
jive a good soaking of water; and so far all is
inished.
A few words maybe said about training.?
The most common mode is to spread out the

vood is laid flat, and the branches are allowed

The neatest and cleanest plan, and one

is to sink poles in an upright positiou i
dong each row. leaving the top live feet above !
lie ground, if placed four yards apart, it will

o them, which will form a cheap trellis to
rail upon. As the branches elongate, they :
nay be tied loosely to the wires, and a kind of
lcdgerow is formed with very little labor, the j

Once a week is presented a comparative statetent
of the receipts and shipments of Cotton, Kice &]

nrative statement of the receipts and exports of p

All news, of a personal and political character,

ossiblc promptness; and to insure this object, we
avc secured the services of an able corps of corrcsondeuts.
It is our special object to publish a new-paper,

jii which may be demanded by the subject before
but a-a general principle, prefer staling facts at
iic earliest instant possible, aud lo leave it to our J
callers to lbrm their own opinions.
The course of the paper is severely conservative,

cculiar to the South, ami next, of the uujpii of the
tates. Wc resolutely oppose radicalism as well in j f,]
cmocraey as morals.

THE PRINCETON PRESS. 2
THE design of the inventor was to get up a Press
which would answer cceri/ requirement of the of- C:
fer made by Gkorge Buuce, of New York, in 1851, i 01
vr# rhi>nii I in lit fiiiitilii m n in nt piI niul pflnfihlp r?f i

throwing off at least 500 sheets per hour.
This Press will throw off from 500 to 800 sheets ?
per hour, doing the work equal to any Cylinder Press.
The bed stands about 30 inches from the door, and
is the most convenient of all Presses to make ready j,
the form on. It is adapted to jobbing, or book work, I
as well as newspaper, and will register as well as ^
any other Cylinder Press. It requires, to work it, .
a man to turn the fly wheel, and a boy to feed the ^
sheets. m
The Inking Apparatus is very complete, and dif- jc
fers from the apparatus used in Cylinder Presses ye
generally, being more like that used in the Power co
Platen Presses. Two rollers pass over the form jj
twice to each impression, taking ink for each sheet. q
A Press of this description for newspaper and job- pj
bing, bed 44 by 28.] inches, with roller mould, roller
stocks, blanket, Hying and registering apparatus, ! yp
&c., complete, will be furnished for $500. If iuteu- ' Qj
ded for book work chiefly, an extra ink fountain will : U(J
be furnished for $20. The press, fly wheel, &c., j
will weigh about 2000 pounds. The sides, &c., are 1
iron. Length of frame, seven feet?height, to front |
edge of feed board, three feet six inches. Any size i
made to order.

as established; I

For more than three years the inventor of the ajovo
Press has been improving it, working it all the I ?
.vhile, and ascertaining, with great care and expense, rj
he best mode of carrying out all the details?and he J.
tatters himself he has succeeded in perfecting it; S.Y
