were called TO examine new Printing P,n
al the Iron Foundry Of Mr.. WorrelI, IN Elm,

plicaied than the Napier press, and, Of cOsw,
less liable 10 get out Of repair 1t is all sub
sran,ial machinery, Of iron, and work, wi'hta
most perfect accuracy, printing both sidat
the shee, al the same time, and making per,a
register. The press may be worked b! han!
at the rate OF twenty perfect sheets to the nj
mute but by the application Of horse FovHI
the speed may be nearly doubled, without iA
advantage 10 the work. In addition to hiAt
is believed that two 8vo. or any other IONS
may, at the same time, be placed on The t,li'
ders, and worked with as much celerl'y IS h
newspaper, by placing an additional boy or gH
to put on the sheels-in which case eighty H.
pressions can be made in minute. and lot
thousand eish, hundred an hour. If rrqurtt
the rapidly may be greatly increased, BY M
ing steam or horse power. Such are the IT.
vantages Of this press but, in our vlsT, 'n'r
are objections, which forbid our Ieeommr'dis

trial, these objections thall be obvIa'ed'
