THEPRlVCETON PRESS,

YNHE design ofthe inventor was to get up q Press
i which would answer every requirement of the
offer made by GEORGE BRUCE, of New York, in
1851, viz: cheap, light, easily managed, and ca
pable Of throwing of at least 500 sheets per hour.
This Press will throw off from 500 to 800 sheets
per hour, doing the work equal to any Cylinder
Press. The bed stands about 80 inches from thA
floor, and is the most convenient Of all Presses to
make ready the form on. 1t is adapted to jobbing,
or book work, as well as newspaper, and win reg
lister as we'll as any other Cylinder Press. 1t
requires, to work it, man to turn the fly wheel
and 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 s.fss
A Press of this description for newspaper and
jobbing, bed A by PSI inches, with roller mould,
roller stocks, blanket flying and registering ap-
paratus, &C., complete, will be furnished for $500
fintended for book work chiefly, an extra ink
fountain will be furnished for $40. The press,
fly wheel, &c, 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. =

A Movement in the Right Direction.

Mr. Clay, of Alabama, rs will be perceived by
our intelligence from Washington, has introduced
a bill in the Senate to abolish the bounties which
have long been conferred on the Cod and Macker-
ell Fisheries: of New England. Whether cod and
mackerel arc necessaries Of life, we shall not I'M
dertake to decide, but they arc generally used
throughout the United States and are considered
wholesome and desirable articles of food. They
stand apparently, thereof, in just about the same
position as sugar. against tie duties on which
there is q general Northern movement. But there
are no bounties conferred on the production Of
sugar even in the worst of our tariffs. But for a
long time, the fishermen of New England have
been protected by a peculiar action of the Gov
ernment enabling them to use the most impor-
tant article in the curing Of fish, without payment
of the heavy duty exacted from all others. They
have not only had the advantage of protective
tariff in salted fish imported from foreign coun-
tries, but they have had an exemption from all
taxation on the most costly material employed in
their, business. The fishermen of New England
have the same claim upon the bounty of the Gov
ernment as the pork and beef packers of the West,
and no more If the one has rightt to its boun-
ty, the other maiy claim an equal right. We are
glad that Mr. Ciay has moved in this matter, not
50 much because we have hope that immediate
practical results will follow the introduction Of
his bill as because it tends to throw-open the
question Of tariff taxation. Charleston Mercury.
