Of railroads penetrating the various parts of
the State, is Indispensable. These wants
having been repeatedly, and for long time

OUR NEW PRINTING Press.

We had supposed that improvements in Thu
branch of mechanics had about ceased, ard CAV,
our order some months since for a power press
from a comparatively new competitor for fame, (Mr
C. POTTER, Jr., Westerly, r. L. with good deal Of
hesitation; but Mr. p promised it equal to those
built by the most celebrated makers of this class OF
machinery, we consented to give him our order.
The article in question, a large ga by 52) Down
Cylinder Press we have been using several weeks
and will now say that we believe Mr.. POTTER (if he
makes all of his presses like this one) makes in all
respects the best Cylinder Press in the country.
Among some of the important advantages over any
thing we have ever seen of the kind, may be emu
merated the following?
LIST. Its beauty Of design
End. Its exceedingly simple very effective, and
convenient method of the distribution of ink
Saving in the shape of gearing about this part of
the Press and at the same time rendering the roller
lsss liable to tear than by the old method of
and gearing.
Sd. The springs are patented, and are entirely new
in their adaptation to the Press. They are com
pact most beautifully elastic work silently, are en-
trely out of sight and are in a moment adjusted to
suit any speed Of the press, and only required
ct each end Of the press.
4th. 1t is of great strength and put together in
the most thorough and workmanlike manner, there
seeming to be sparing Of pains expense to make
it the very best in the market
A we were rather difident about expressing our
opinion Of this Press until we had further heard
from the best practical talent in the printing line in
the city we invited our friends from the Methodist
and Baptist Book Concerns to examine it. Mr.. WEs-
SELL, the superintendent of the press department
Mr. Macon, the machinist Of the establishment;
and Mr.. MARKS, one Of the propretors Of the TEN
gasSsee Baptist bOth establishments having the latest
and most approved presses from the most popular
buiders,) with Mr. FISK and Mr. LEBREw from our
own establishment after a careful examination of
all its details, made the following report the re
suit of their observations: That the presses mann
featured by Mr.. Potter, taking this as a sample
while they are inferior in no respect TO the best
cylinder presses we have ever seen, are in several
important particulars superior
When we come TO add another very important
fact that Mr.. p furnishes his presses some five hun
Glass presses, We feel sure he will have all theI
orders for his presses that one extensive establish
ment will be able to fill. We shall behappy to show
our new press TO all who are interested in such!
matters
We will further add that purchased the new
press principally to work our paper on but find it
so well adapted for book work we have put that
upon the new press and shall keep the paper upon
the "old Hoe press fer the present

Mr.. PaYne,s Bill.

In printing the following communication from
Democratic friend in East Tennessee, it is proper FOL
us to say, that we have not been able to give thu
subject that attention necessary for the formation
a correct judgment of our own the subject re
ferred to:
LET rHB LEGISLATURE BEWARE The proposition
Of Mr.. PAYNE, which has passed the Senate and Is
now to be considered in the House of Representa-
tlves, may be just and proper enough in its mair
provisions, whereby money changers, brokers' and
shavers may receive deposits, discount notes and
deal in exchange. But there is point made in tbs
bH as 1t passed the Senate which should be closely
watched by the members of the House, it is GER
tain the Senators voting for the bill along with its
author. did not discover Its full import
Il certainly is, should be- the policy of the lie
0isature if it tOlerates the of paper a circu-
latng medium to so legslate as TO bring the coin of
the Banks as near as possible to The holder of the note
ofas Bank. This policy dictated what is charac-
tsrised now as the counter note system.
The bill of Mr.. PAYNE, as amended, provides that
brokers and others entitled to the privileges intend
ed 70 be conferred by the bill shall not receiUe del
post the notes of foreign Banks but that they nag
pay them out
Such policy as this would operate most inJuri1
Ousy to the people Of Tennessee, as its effect would
be to food the State with an irredeemable circula
ton The whole currency of the State would be the
notes of the banks of other States the coin in the
vaults of which Of there be any would be wholly
inaccessible to us. And inasmuch as the brokers
and banks prohibited by the bill from receiving
the notes Of foreign banks on deposit this foreign
circulation afOat could never be returned for
coin or exchange unless it be done by the private
citizen who may have ten, twenty or one hundred
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1853-1862, 1859-11-19

aoaps Of 1t to transmit by mail to tho hsnE issa-
ing it.
Another effect Of it would be to enable foreign
banks to substitute their ejaculation for cur coin
and exchange they would receive this from US for
|the currency which they giyl So the drain upon
our substance would be perpetual and ultimately
|ruinous, Foreign bank notes would flow into the
State while the current of coin and exchange would
be outward.
1t would, therefore, be well for the House Of Rep
.resentatives to amend Mr.. PAYSE's bill (and the
writer Of this has reason to believe that it win meet
the appreciation of the author of the bD as to pro
vide that brokers' and others doing banking bust
ness may receive the notes of foreign banks ondepos
but prohibit them, under heary penalty, from paying
them o,d. Such provision as this would efectually
.sappress the circulation of the notes Of foreign
banks in Tennessee. Or, if foreign banks, by means
Of an agency in Tennessee or otherwise should OBJ
tain circulation for their issues in Tennessee, tn,
brokers and banks here win be required to return
such of their notes may come to their hands homl
for coin or exchange, and thereby the current
would be reversed. The bank note, payable APPOINT
out of the State and too remote for the noteholdel
to make demand of payment in person, viii b.
driven out Of the State and coin and exchange b
made TO flow into the State in lieu Of them.

The sad duty devolvesupOn US Of announcing .hC
death of our associate and friend G. G. PODDExTEE
he was killed yesterday morning by ALLEN A HALL
the editor of the Daily Mems.
Mr. PoBDExTER was q native of Virginia, and of
family, both on his fathers and mothers SIDE (hii
mother was q GnAER,) eminent for patriotism, tai
eut, and courage He was born on the 3Oth NoVem
Der, 1929 BE graduated at Dartmouth College, il
New Hampshire, and at the Law School Of the Cum
berlaud University at Lebanon. In 1856, he was the
Democratic Eector for the Eighth District in this
State The late Hon. A V. BROwx who knew hin
well and appreciated his many manly virtues, ap
pointed him Chief Clerk of the Department over
which he presided in 1856 This Office he held only
about year and resigned it, the solicitations
of the publishers of this paper to become one of its
editors and proprietors. The engagements of his
associates have been SUCH during most of the time
of Mr. POnDExTER's connection with the paper, as
To throw most of the editorial labor on him. We
may safely say, that no man in this country ever
earned, IN the same time more enviable reputation
in this capacity than that which has been achieved
by our late deeply lsmented colleague. Az man,
he was as nearly faultless humanity can become
for the manly courage which careful of the rights
of Others yet fearless in the defence of the char
scter of its pOssesor viii by true man be imputed
as fault Courteous In all his intercourse with 9TH
ers, he enacted the same courtesy to himself.
We are in no frame Of mind to write more at this
moment We incorporate here the action of the
House Of Representatives on learning the news of
the sad event
