THE PRINCETON PRESS,

TNHE design ofthe inventor was to get up q Press
Il which would answer every requirement Of the
offer made by GEORGE Bruce, of New York, in
1851, viz: cheap light, easily managed, and CO.
pabe of throwing off at least 600 sheets per hour.
This Press will throw of from 500 to 800 sheets
per hour, doing the work equal to any Cylinder
/ Press. The he'd stands about 30 inches from the
floor, and is the most convenient Of all Presses to
make ready the form on. 1t is adapted to jobbing,
or book work, rs well as newspaper, and will reg
lister as well as any other Cylinder Press. It
requires, to work it, O man to turn the fly wheel
and a boy to feed the sheets
The linking Apparatus is very complete, and
differs from the apparatus used in Cylinder Pres.
ses generally, being more like that used in the
Power Platen Presses. Two rollers pass over
the form twice to each impression, taking ink for
each sheet.
A Press of this description for newspaper and
jobbing, bed A by 2sl inches, with roller mould,
roller stocks, blanket, flying and registering ap-
paratus, &c., complete, will be furnished for $500.
1fintended for book work chiefly, an extra ink
fountain will be furnished for $50. The press,
fly wheel, SC. will weigh about 1000 pounds. The
sides, &c., are iron. Length of frame, seven feet
height, to front edge of feed board, three feet
six inches. Any size made to order.
The following is the list of Sizes and Prices as
far as established:

Roses budding and blushing,
When "the skies are ashen and sober"
June's young fingers wreathing
The brows of the swart October;
Dewy light Oft morning
Gliding the evening hours;
Age bright with the smiles of lifs's dawning,
So whisper TO me your flowers.
Childhoods mysterious slunIbers,
Wonderful, dreamy, deep,
Before the gaunt fingers of care,
Have plucked al the robes of sleep;
Faint notes of distant Tyre,
Struck by an unseen hand;
Vaguely-remembered journeyings,
Into far oil land,
Over the sunset hills,
Over the ocean bllow-
Such are their whispers TO me,
The rosebuds you s;rewed on my pillow.
/ accept the omen, and pray
That their warm and delicate hue
May be but beautiful symbol
OF the future that waileth for you;
That their fragrance encircle your life,
My love, till the angels have crowned you;
And we trace out your path 10 the heavens,
BY the roses you scattered around you.
