WONDERFUL INVENTION.

We find in the Journal OF Commerce
an account of a recent in vention in Eng
land, which bids fair 10 revolutionize Sew.
eral branches of the arts connected with
engraving and printing. A patent hav-
ing been secured in tina. country, the fol.
lowing description of the invention is Civ.
en- in the Loadon Art Uuioh for Februa.
ry:
1.-The principal merit claimed by the
proprielors of the patent a:e in the first
place, their method of repeating in low re.
lief (something like Geographic printing
surface The tracery of an engraved wood
block or copper plate from cut or en-.
craving from such block or plate, in such
manner as Immediately to yield Impress
ions which are not in any way to be dis.
tnguished from those drawn from the orr
ginal engraved surface. This is effected
by means of acids diluted 10 various de-
grees of strength. which act upon those
parts of the plates remaining unpl detected
by the ink, and so leave the printing sur.
face very slightly in relief. Another
chief merit of the invention is the success
!ul provision against the spreading of the
ink under any degree ofpressure, where.
by the finest lines and sharpest edges are
executed with singular precision. An
other extraordinary result Of the invention
is the restoration of ancient or injured en-.
cravings or etchings-tha, is if an engrav-
ing has been njured-not, be it under
stood, as regards the paper, but faded thro'
carelessness, or,defaced by accdent--sucb
engravings can be perfectly restored, by
having every line and touch refreshed
with new ink, so as 10 give the work with
oil its details, as if fresh from the wood
or copper.
To describe briefly the preparation ola
plate or cylinder, lei US suppose a news
paper about 20 be reprinted by this means.
The sheet is first mois,ened with diluted
acid and placed between sheets of blolting
paper, in order that The superauous mols-
tuFe may be absorbed. The ink neutral
ICES the acid, which is pressed out of the
blank spaces only, and etches them away
In all cases where the le!terpress is of re.
cent date, or not perhaps older than half
year, a few minutes suffice for this pur-
pose. The paper is hen carefully placed
upon the plate with which the Ielterpress
10 be transferred is in immediate contact,
and the whole passed under press, on re.
moval from which, and on carefully dis
engaging the paper, the letters are found
TO reverse on the plate. which is then rub
bed with preparation ofgum, after which
the letters receive an addition Of ink, which
is Immediately incorporated with that by
which they are already formed. These
operations are effected in a few minutes.
The surface of the plate around the letters
is bitten in very slight degree by the a.
cid, ard on application of the ink il is re.
jected by the zinc, and received only by
the letters, which are charged with ink by
the common roller used in hand printing.
Each letter comes from the press as if it |
had been imprinted by type metal; and
the copies are fac simlles which cannot
be distinguished from the original sheet.

IT'S sweet to muse at even-tide,
When floats the breezy Vesper,
Where RIPPING streams with music glide
Beneath the rays Of Hesper.
IT'S sweet at night TO view alone
The ellver moonlight streaming,
.6nd count the stars around her throne
In rival spendor cleaning.
IT'S sweet to trace all Nature DER
And count her priceless treasures,
TO see how vast the golden store
From which we draw our pleasures.
And oh, how bright the seasons are,
How sweet the changes given,
While day and night on fiery car
Glide round the vault OF Heaven.
IT'S sweet to grasp, though all alone,
When fortune spreads her treasures,
And take the gifts in kindness thrown
To cheer our lonely leisure;
But sweeter far is ev'ry joy
That earth affords US ever,
When with our friends, without alloy
We taste life's sweets together.

A profit Of only five mills per pound, on
the vast amount OF iron used in the manu-.

States and Territories. (Which patents n
this country ncIude,) would yield an in
come of more than one hundred thousand
dollars per annum. But it is plain that
much greater profis can be realised, for,
when the iron is properly shaped, (Which
would probably cost no moro than COM
mon slit rods) an ordinary hand can make
over one thousand nails per hour, without
the use of coal or MD OF heat. Nails thus
manufactured are stronger.--more free

less labor in pointing, than those made
in the ordinary way from slit rods. A

willing to invest the small sum of $500,

This invention is the result Of more
than three years labor, in experimenting
and making horse shoe nails in multi.
