The following are few complimentary opin-
ions of the Press:
PAPER MoIsTENER.-a new and very neat USE
full invention for moistening post Office stamps,
envelopes, sheets in copying book, counting
bank bills, DC. This does away with the Disagree
able method of moistenng stamps, &c, with the
ongue. Ii is patent article, vary simple and
cheap, and will be universally adopted as
I is seen.--Boston Transcript, Sept. 1854.
PAPER MoIsTENER-A new invention for mois-
ening postage stamps, envelopes, sheets in
copying book, counting bank bills, DC. The
common way of moistening stamps with the
tongue is very disagreeable and inconvenent;
also the usual way of wetting sheets in copying
book, by using brush which has to be dipped in
water,is inconveDient and very difficult to give
paper an even moisture, which is very desirable
for copying letters. This article obviates these
difficulties, besides being useful for various other
purposes Ii is also perfectly simple and cheap,
and must come into general use.-[ Boston Post,
Sept, 1854.
PAPER MoIsTENER.-A newly invented and very
useful little contrivance for moistening postage
stamps and envelopes, and for wettBg sheets in

save the tongue good deal of unpleasant work.

EARL OF CARLIsLE's DIARY

EARL OF CARLIsLE,s DIARY
IL Diary Of Turkish and Greek Writers, by the
Right Hon. the Earl of Carlisle, edited by G. c.
FELTON,, Greek Professor in Harvard University
The noble Earl is well and fsvorably known in
this country, having travelled here while he bore
the title Of Lord Morpeih, and his work will be
read with great interest by all who have devoted
any attention 10 the mighty events which are now
taking place in the Eastern World. The period
embraced in his journal is one OF deep signi6-
canoe, being at the very commencement OF hos
tilities, and the persons introduced have since
played eminent parts in this Terrible historical
tragedy. Professor FELTON, has added full and CO.
pious notes to the American.ediiion, and the work
is beautifully illustrated. IL will hereafter be re-
garded as valuable, historical record OF this in
eresting period.
