ANOTHER GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN
MECHANISM For SPEED In PRINTING

Messrs. K. Hoe & Co.. of New York, have
been some months past manufacturing, to order,
for the Public Ledger. printing machine, of
different, principle from any press hitherto used
and calculated for a rate Of speed and rapidify Of
operation entirely in advance Of any press yet in
vented Tor use on American made paper. The
machine was invented by Col. r. NJ. Hoe, the
senior partner Of that extensive manufacturing
house under whose care and superintendence this
one the first and only one yet manufactured, or
even ordered, has been bnlt. II has been com
pIeted, and we were called upon last week to 20
10 New York and view the machine in operation
before having IL taken down to be forwarded here
We have done 81, and had The pleasure Of seeing
1t run at the rate Of about ten thousand impres.
slons per hour The principle is such that il can
be carried mp To twelve, fifteen, eighteen. and
even twenty thousand impressions per hour.
As far as speed alone is concerned. the princi-
pie of this ingention may be said 10 be The acme
Of perfection in printing. as is Morse's Electro

THE u. S. SENATE

report of the proceedings in the Senate on Saiur

Mr.. Weslculi commenced the debate and an
DOnnced himself a friend Of the press-of the

Of The press. He Thought the most dangerous

For the New Era.

Mr.. A. F. CUNNINGHAM
Will CRAFTY a friend by publishing in his inte
resting paper. the following lines
TO THE PORTSMOUTH VOLUNTEERS
'oh e! It's one scene of parting here,
Loves watchword is--farewelli
And almost starts the flowing tear,
Ere dried the last that fell
IT'S but to feel that mort dear,
Is needful to the heart,
And straight voice is muttering near
1mperious, eye must part
Oft, too, VIC doom ourselves to grieye;
For wealth or glory rove,
But say, can wealth or glory give
Aught that equal love ?
Life is too short thus to bereavc
Existence of its spring.
Or even for one short hour to leave
Those to whose hearts we cling.
Count DER the hours whose happy fight
Is shared with those we love;
Like stars amid stormy night,
Alas how few they prove
Yet they concentrate all the light
That cheers our lot below;
And thither turns the weary sight,
In this dark world of woe
And could we live, if we believed
The future like the past?
Still hope we on, though still deceived;
The hour will come at last,
When all the visions fancy weaved
Shall be by truth imprest
And they who still in absence grieved,
Shall be together blcst
But bappiest he whose gifted eye
Above this world can see,
And those dviner realms descry,
Where parting cannot be;
Who, with one chsngcless friend on high.
LIES varied path has trod,
And scars to meet, beyond the sky,
The ransomed and their God!
&c or in thy absence may the eyes,
Of sister spirits guard thy way,
Chanting their soitest luIlabes,
TO Danish danger far away" JULIET

THE RIGHTS OF SAILORS

We give place with pleasure to the following
sensible and judicuus remarks of the Boston Post
on subject that should command the earnest veio
OF every merchant in the country. The sailor
has hard times enough. God knows in the prose-
cutlon OF his dangerous profession, and we have
no idea that this door should he opened, that he
may be robbed Of his hard earned wages. We
know not the law referred to by the Post, but We
call upon our Representative. and other friends
to oppose the passage of the bill by their votes
and their speeches.

STATE DEBT-THE DEMOCRAT.


The last democrat" attempts to be very
witty, in reference TO our remarks on the
subject of the act TO sustain the credit Of
the State, and the State debt. Smart talk
may do for some--and may divert atten.
ton from the actual State of affairs and
prevent, for the time being, odium from
falling upon those who are responsible, "but
its coming, for a that"
The democrat" does not profess to be
pleased with the late act 10 sustain the cred
il of the State, in all its particulars, but
does not specify his objections; it knows
the law is unpopular with the people, and
that our article was well calculated to
lead TO investigation, and render it still
more 50, and hence its light remarks and
general terms of expression. Ii attributes
the State debt to the Mormon war, and
capital furnished the bank--which last
item il thinks ought 10 be charged TO the
account of the wings. inasmuch as the
wing members voted to place it there!--
That's a brilliant idea and eminently wor-
thy the distinguished source from which
it emanated We are fearful, however,
that it will not be so satisfactory as it sup
poses. We advise the Democrat to try its
hand at queling the "tempest" again; the
"tea pot" has boiled over, and there is
much dissatisfaction among the people
They are very uneasy at present, and
would take il as an especial favor in any
one who would convince them that all is
right.
