PAGES MACHINERY.

We would respectfully call the attention of the
reader to the advertisement of Mr. George Page,
which will be found in another part Of this days pa
per, and while we do so, will seize the occasion to
state that during the last week Of the session Of Con-
gress, MIR. Page exhibited one of his Portable Sa,c
Mills in this city. 1t propelled by one of his
largest sized horse-powers, attached to which
four horses. While we were present at that exhibit
ton, the performance of his Saw Mill astonished
every one with the celebrity of its performance and
the exactness and beauty of its work nor did the
simplicity and strength of his machine awaken less
surprise. In its construction every thing like
plcation and intricacy appears to have been sedu-
lousy avoided, and the entire aim of this excellent
machinest seems to have been TO arrive at pocer
without any other aids than those he derived from
the happy combination of plain principles with eff
cheney, and to make his invention worthy of this
uttarian age. OF the potent part it is calculated
TO perform as a labor-saving machine we entertain
no doubt and as little that the intelligent public
will reward him well for his untring and successful
efforts in the economy Of time and labor, and
quently of money which is alike the sinew of war
and the industrial pursuits.
Before we close this reference to Mr.. Pages adj
vertisement, will direct the attention of the read.

DEATH OF JOHN w. MURDAUGH.

DEATH OF JOHN W. MURDAUGH.
1t is our melancholy duty to announce his death, in
his AID year, at his residence in Portsmouth, yeser
day, at O'Clock, of JOHN w. MURDAuGH, Esq, Edi-
tor of the Clay Banner, of hemorrhage Of the
bowels.
The death of a man so well known throughout the
State of Virginia will be heard with feelings of deep
sorrow by numerous friends TO whom he was endear-
ed by his frank and engaging manners by the quail
ties of his head and the virtues of his heart
We feel that not enabled TO do justice, in a
necessarily brief paragraph the talents OF the lament
ed subject of this notice. and trust that some
temporary of John w. Murdaugh will lay before the
public an appropriate tribute to his merits and his
moral worth.
From the Norfolk Herald.
Mr.. Murdaugh a man of striking impulses,
which sometimes led him into error; but the good
ness Of his heart the soundness OF his calmer Judg-
ment, and the clearness Of his moral perceptions,
were manifest to all who knew him, and never more
so than in his last Illness when, conscious OF the APP
proach of death, he desired that or two indvidu-
ais with whom he unhappily at variance, should
be sent for that he might tender them the hand OF
Cancellation, and die in peace with all mankind his
intelligence and ability were adequate to the highest
stations in public life. He was prominent member
of the board Of Norfolk county, and for many years
represented her in the General Assembly and served
his feowcitiZens in various important trusts, faith
fully and ably
We would remark, in connection with the
above, and in confirmation of the assertion that
he "was man Of strong impulses" that in his
last moments Mr.. M. expressed deep regret
that party influences had led him to do great in
Justice to PRESIDENT TYLER-and that when
assured that such an acknowledgment would
eradicate all remembrance of offence in the
breast Of the President, his death was calm and
neaceful
