Rev. C. K. Marshall's Invention.

| 80 eAAo Ne@J MI eAcHaHRe) Ne
cessity has been felt for an apparatus for drec.
ting newspapers, magazines, etc. The time
required for doing the work by hand being
long, and the work very tedious, numerous
experiments have been made TO produce the
desired result but nearly all of the ma
chimes have failed to greater or less extent
and many have proved utterly worthless.
Recently new one has been patented
This is the invention of Rev. c. X. Marshall,
of Mississippi who got it up for the purpose
OF economizing- the publication of Christian
journal intended for the masses in the South
who take no religious paper, and is to be sus-
tanned by ndowment-a large fund to be kept
at interest, and only the annual interest en-
ployed as means of reducing the price to a
mere nominal sum. The apparatus just pa
tented has some features of great value in it.
1t takes but little room, works with great ra-
pidity, easily directing 5000 papers per hour,
and can be easily made to address 10000 by
increasing the speed. 1t also operates so that
the States and post-offiees are all systemati-
calIy arranged; and by this device no trouble
is found in stopping paper when the subscrip-
ton has run out, or in adding any number of
new subscribers when desired. Every post
office has its own automatic arrangement for
distribution, and without stopping the machin-
cry the papers are all accurately assorted for
each office--no matter if there are 10000 Off
ces-and as for the number Of subscribers it
can provide for there is no limit. No type
being used, there is little OF no weight compar-
ed with the machines which use them.
One young man is capable of managing
this apparatus alone, at the same time keep
ing and correcting the register of subscribers
and attend to other useful matters, where
there are not over 100000 weekly subscribers
to look after.
We understand Mr.. Marshall has in course
Of completion superior specimen of his i'm
provement, which will be thoroughly tested
at an early day; and we are pleased to learn
that one of the chief excellences of it is its
cheapness.
| A party too powerful to be unheeded and
marked, as nations are distinguished by ter
ritorial limits, is now organized for the des-
tructioa Of the EaJor system of the South, and
seeks to obtain possession OF the General Gov
eminent that its machinery may be used in
aid Of their sodr upon our existence as soUer-
eign State.
Such would be the consequence of success
in the ne&rious object the pursuit of which
they avow Their movement has no longer
the character of speculative philosophy 1t is
not the political division of people because of
different opinions upon matters of joint inter-
est but as in nature Of foreign aCar a0aged for
conquest and dominion.-Jeferson Darts before
the Democratic Co1Uention of Mississippi.
We would be under great obligations to the
psychologists, if they would solve us this one
prob,em-how it is that an individual of sane
intellect, sound conscience, and a healthful sen-
sibilty to honor and all the social amenities,
can, as a politician, deliberately asscverate that
which as a man, he must know is untrue
What is there that enables mere change Of
scene to work such a wonderful transforma-
ton of character? Lord BURLEIGH, on going
home, would throw down his robe of Office,
exclaming "Lie there, Lord Chancellor !" We
understand that But how man can throw
down his moral sense in this style, we confess
passes our philosophy, even though his home
be in Mississippi There is not man on the
floor of Congress who has higher sense OF
honor than JEFFERSON DAVIS, nor one who
has keener observation. 1t is impossible to
doubt his honesty, and quite as impossible to
doubt his intelligence and yet We find him
here putting forth, in set speech, among his
constituents, declaration which it is impossi-
Bile to reconcile with the truth.-N T. Con-
gier and Enquirer.
The speech Of Senator Davis before the late
Convention of the Democracy of this State,
has opened upon him torrents of Black Re
publican abuse, The foregoing is too moder-
ate to be fair specimen of the style of COM
ment which they have adopted but inasmuch
as the Courier and Enquirer presumes to deny
his statement OF the aims OF the Black Repub-
lican organization, we have copied it to intro
duce the testimony of the accredited represen-
tatives and chiefs of that party. Let an intel
ligent public read and judge for itself:
There is a higher law than the Constitu-
ton which regulates our authority over the
domain SLAVERY MUST BE ABOL-
ISHED, AND WE MUST DO IT'-Wm.
H. Setoard.
THE time is fast approaching when the cry
will become too orerpowering to resist. RATH-
Err THAN TOLERATE NATIONAL SLAVERY AS IT
NOW EXISTS, LET THE UNION BE DIS
SOLVED AT ONCE, AND THEN THE SIN OF
SLAVERY WILL REST WHERE IT BELoNGs.''-M
y. Tribune.
This Union is lie The American Union
is an imposture, covenant with death and an
agreement with hell. We are for its over
throw! Up with the fagof dsunion that we
may have free and glorious republic of our
own William Lloyd Garrison.
Il look forward to the day when there shall
be Serville instruction in the South when
the black man, armed with British bayonets,
and led on by British officers, shall assert his
freedom, and wage a war of determination
against his master. And though we may not
mock at their calamity, nor laugh when their
fear cometh, YET WE WILL HAIL 1T AS
THE DAWN OF A POLITICAL NIL
LENNIU4H''-.Ioskua r. Giddinqs.
ain the alternative being presented of THE
CONTINUANCE OF SLAVERY or a dissolution of
the Union, WE ARE FOR A DISSOLUTION, and
we care not how quick it comes. ''-Rufas p.

1.-THE cure for slavery prescribed by Red
path is the only infallible remedy, and MEN
MUST F0MENT INSURRECTION AMONG
THE SLAVES, in order to cure the evils.
1t can never be done by concessions and COM
promises. 1t is great evil, and must be ex-
tinguished by still greater ones 1t is positive
and imperious in its approaches and must be
overcome with equally positive forces. You
must commit an insult to arrest a burglar,
and slavery is not arrested without a violation
of law and the cry of fire."-Iadepsnde'a DEM
