opposition TO Hughes of Indiana, is q. w.
Carr of Lawrence county, an able man, and
nresident of the state constitutional conven-
ton several years since. The indianapolis

satisfied with a small vote.

The newly patented printing press ofthe
New York Sun, which prints both sides Of a
newspaper at one feeding, ii is very like
Hoes eight-cylinder press, excepting that
the forms of both sides are put on the big
cylinder at once, (Mr. Hoe only puts on
one,) and by very simple but effective ar
rangenent of the feeding machinery the
sheet, after being printed on one side, is
whirled right around and takes the impress
sion on the other. The register of sheets
printed in this way is much better than
those whose second side is fed by hand.
Mr.. Beach hopes yet to be able TO feed an
endless sheet Of paper to his press, and re-
ceive the papers from ii printed folded and
counted, ready for the carriers.
