PAPER MANUFACTURE.

mighty, complete revolution is in progress
in the paper trade.
This is the result of the new machine invented by
Mr. Ransom and for the reasons we have stated al.
though it is deviation from common custom our
readers will be gratied by lucid description of this
engine which II producing snch great effect.
The paper after being made and dried on the steam
cylinders now in use and wound upon the reel, is
then taken to the Sizing Machine and passed under
the roller which works in the size trough; it then
passes through metal rollers, which take off the super
huous quantity, and is wound to reel at the end
The operation OF size parting Is simply performed by
winding the paper when thus sized on to another reel
This operation is extremely beneficial to the paper,
and conducted with great rapidIty, ten being
size parted in many minutes The paper is then
passed on to drying machine, which consists of Sc
ries Of open drums with fans within side moving at
various Speeds and tanning upon every part of the
paper as il passes warm air which absorhs the mos
in the size, and leaves the gelatne firmly attached
to the paper.
A twelvemonths continual working has demon
strated beyond all question the intrinsic worth Of this
invention founded it is upon the soundest printi-
pies, and carried out by the most beautiful and
rate machinery.
Manufacturers the most intelligent and Influential
in the United Kingdom, have thoroughly tested it, and
have not scruple,! To admit that the principle must

Of machine made papers, who DESTROYS maintain
their position in the market.
The introduction of the paper machine by Fourdri-
ner produced changes OF the most important character
in the manufacture of paper, and had such machine
been accompanied Ivy the principle carried for
ward by this invention, scarcely any thing would have
remained to be desired in the manufacturing opera
tons; but il has always been felt that that machine
was imperfect and incomplete, inasmuch manufac-
unable TO carry forward the sizing and dry
ing operations otherwise than by the destructive
and barbarous modes. We aware there have been
repeated attempts made to size by machines but hth-
with but little success; where it is continued, ts
advantage is more than equivoca by the mode adopt
ed in drying by heated cylinders. Engine sizing, al
though more general is scarcely more satisfactory

MORE OF THE TREASON

The New York Courier and Enquirer again
charges the President and Mr.. Secretary Upshur
with treason. But for the "pause for reply"
from the Madisonian, we should not deem it ne
cessary TO recur TO the subject, after having re-
butted the first charge, and covered the whole
ground. Its last attack is incoherent, contradic-
tory, frivolous, and amazingly insolent.
Ii will be remembered that the Courier and En-
quirer accused the President of treason, because
Judge Upshur wrote book called the !" Par
tsan Leader" We denied the fact of author
ship.
The Courier now says, that the first denial
was 'by authority" and that sit is full Of ad-
mission that the author of the Partisan Lead
err was a traitor to the Union, and could not be
permitted 10 retain a seat in the Cabinet" We
admitted no such conclusion; on the contrary,
we stated that the partisan Leader" was a
mere work Of fiction-a political novel, probably
intended as an electioneering efusion against
the reelection Of Mr.. Van Buren,, and that, as
such, if it had any effect on the election, $50
much the better"
But, after stating that the denial of authorship
was made "by authority" the Courier. in the
same breath, says: "The single fact. that
Judge Upshur has quietly submitted to be its
author, without the attempt 10 disabuse the
public mind, was prima Jacie evidence that he
approved of the treason, and therefore he was
equally guilty as if he had written it," A denial
"by authority" certainly looks very much like
ian attempt to disabuse" the public mind.
But, says the Courier, the writer is "the
neghbor, companion, political mentor, and con
science keeper, of the Executive" This is too
puerle and contemplate TO need any answer
"The removal of Judge Upshur," continues this
editor, must be demanded, and if not complied
with, it will ensure The Impeachment Of the Pre-
sident!" What glorious prospect is here open

AN EDITOR MADE A BARoNET.

Queen Victoria appears to have no scrupes with
regard 10 the promotion of editors high stations OF
honor Immediately after the late political struggle,
she conferred baronetcy on John Easthope, Esq the
able and distinguished conductor ofthe London Morn

England. This was altogether right and proper. Mr..
Eashope had fully earned the distinctions and Queen
Victoria deserves the thanks of the whole editorial
corps for the generous appreciation Of talent and Of
fort in this particular especially at moment
when the Tory antagonist party had just acquired
the ascendancy. Mr. Easthope had warmly advoca,-

church rates, as being unjust mposts upon persons

OF his Secretaries has been suspected Of being
admit he never wrote
AT last we have the treason proved. The
Courier thinks il has discovered that Judge Up
shur wrote review of the "Partisan Leader
and concludes that " this charge is OF equal mag
nltude, and must be demonstrated as false, OF
Judge upshur must retire from the Navy Depart
menl." Here is notable predicament, which
cannot fail TO annihilate the President, his Secre-
'ary, The Administration, the Wing party, and
probably the Government itself-not TO mention
the fulflment Of Parson Mer's predictions, who
ioreiold that the day Of doom was coming along
about this time.
But testing apart, let US examine the declara-
ton against the President Ii has several counts.
First, he is charged with treason, because
Judge Upshur wrote the Partisan Leader This
is admitted to be fictitious. 3D. He is charged
with treason, because Judge Tucker, us reputed
author, is his 'neighbor and companion" This
is secuted out Of court as frivolous. 81. The
President Is charged with treason, because
Judge Upshur wrote a review Of the work.
Now whether Judge U. ever reviewed it or not,
is equally frivolous and unimportant. II is a
mere work Of fiction, for the amusement Of the
public, and is said TO be an ingenious perform
ance. The Declaration being exhausted, and
all the charges reiuted, or found TO be frivo-
luus, we presume, that a motion will be made
for new trial. TO inquire whether any OF the
Presidents neighbois have read the Treason
able Book. If so, he must be impeached forth
with.
The editor of the Courier and Enquirer has
proved himself TO be SO astute in ferreiing out
treason, that he ought to be made sole Judge
of high court of impeachment, to try the Pre-
sdent The Senate is altogether TOO tame bo-
dy TO undertake such job Or, if he could be
answer the purpose. The House would be
likely 10 lack the spirit to prosecute the case in
manner suited 10 the enormity Of the crimes
charged and the high standing Of the parties ac-
cused. Make the Courier Jack Ketch, and he
would ''elevae" them in manner the most
prompt, summary and effective.
Touching the "by authority" alluded to by
the Courier, we have only to say, that our for
mer article was published without consulting
the President or Judge Upshur. Judge U.
was then in Virginia, as the President is now;
nor have we consulted Judge U. on this occa-
sion. He is abundantly able TO vndicate him
self, but probably will not deem it necessary to
descend from his official duties TO the partisan
arena, to notice the ridiculous charges Of the
editor Of the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer.
