sa- Some time ago we gave commu-

Masonic time ago we gave commu-
nication in the Telegraph in reference to
"Crary's shingle Machine" Since then
we have had the pleasure of seeing it
work. On visit, a few days since, to
the establishment of J. w. Jones & Co.,
in Middleport, we saw it in full opera
ton. If we had the knowledge of ma
chinery requisite to do SO, We would
give full description of this wonderful
piece of mechanism. But we have not.
The perfect simplicity, accuracy and
rapidity with which it turns out the
shingles, is amazing. And it is no less
amazing that, of all the worlds great in
ventors, none happened to reach the hap
py conception of this machine before
Henceforth the name Of our fellow w-citi-
zen is coupled with the names Of the
worlds great benefactors of all ages
Few inventions, we believe, are destined
to become more popular, or to do more
to add to the wealth of the country than
this.
The wealth of a country consists in
the products of human labor. The more
labor performed, therefore, the wealthier
a country will become. Consequently
every invention which adds to the pro-
duction of the labor of the country is an
acquisition to it's wealth. And here is a
simple machine that will performthe la
Dor of twenty men, and will do it better
than can be done by muscular power
Every one of them erected, is, therefore,
equivalent to an acquisition of twenty
men to the productive labor of the coun-
try. Sit up one of these machines in
every county of the State of Ohio, and a
productive power is set in motion equal
to the manual labor of twenty ad litional
men in each county. And it cannot be
long before it will be introduced into
every neighborhood where wood grows.
We suppose the proprietors will sell
rights, but of this fact we are not in
formed. All who feel an interest in the
matter can see it in operation at the fac
tory of j. w. Jones & Co., where any
information in regard to the sale of
rights will doubtless be given. Call and
see it work. 49,.

spisers of free labors-the doug faced
demagogues, and their servile. tools,
who, like well-f.d negroes, are willing
Slaves-all of such who, by blunder and
misassociation, ever found themselves
acting with the Republicans, have left
them, and have found their proper place
in the ranks of some one of the opposing
parties. Still the Republicans have a
majority, and have, besides, as resource
from which to draw the great reservoir
of honest voters still waiting in these
various factions for more light, and
ready to leave as soon as the light is
seen. From these the change must be
rapid in the future, until the Republ i
can party shall triumph in every State.
This view of the political field makes
it certain to every rejecting mind that
the final triumph Of truth, justice, pros.
perity, and freedom in all the States is
but question of time. We will carry
all the Free States except California
this year. Four years bence we will
just as surely add to the list, Delaware,
Maryland and Missouri. Eight years
hence, Kentucky and Texas will be
added to the glorious galaxy. In
twelve years, Virginia, great, glorious,
grand, old Virginia, with all her sur
viving memories of her earlier days,
will wheel into line, and discarding her
profigate sons who have disgraced their
mother, will take her place, as in days
of old, first in the counsels of united
and happy people. Tennessee, and the
other. States will follow the example,
until in the not distant future, the dis
cord of our time will be hushed in sem
timents of a common brotherhood, a
common interest, and a common destiny.
I'd We believe this change will take
place, simply because We believe that
men-our brothers-bad as many of
| them are, are not predestined and ire
deemable devils. And if they are not,
then the seething harams of a disgusting
amalgamation, where sordid avarice and
brutal lust work together to supply the
| flesh shambles with human victims, can
not last forever. If they are not, then
forced ignorance-the beastly degrada-
tion-the unpaid ilabor-extorted by
the lash from sullen men and shrieking
women, cannot last forever. If they
are not, then the despotism which
makes the plainest christian duty
a crime, free press incendiarism, and
free speech treason, to be suppressed by
lynch law, and ruf6an outrage, cannot
last forever. And because we believe
that men are men and not demons, we
believe these things will have an end,
right and justice, truth and freedom,
will take their places. And for the in
aguration of that better era, we believe
the Republican party, imperfect as it is,
and imperfectly as it understands its
mission, is nevertheless a necessary in
strument. And hence, only do we sup
port the Republican party. as ..!@.a+

22nd of February it is proposed that there shall
be an effort made throughout the United States
to raise sufficient funds to carry on the work up
on the Washington National Monument during
the ensuing year. Citizens in every part of the
country can contribute through tie Postmaster
of their respective towns. About one thousand
PostmasterS have boxes for tie purpose placed
in their offices, and have raised within the past
four months more than $4,000 There arenear-
ly $4,000 Postmasters who have not been heard
from, and it is to be hoped that they will coop
crate with the others. If they will consent to
do so, and if the returns average only 81. 40 per
year, or II IL cents per month"; the work could
be kept in progress. A very slight effort made
in each place throughout the country wolld en-.
sure the completion of the monument In few
years Editors of newspapers are desiredto call
attention to this patriotic enterprise

NEGROES ExPELLED.-The Detroit (Michigan)
Free Press states that all the negroes have been
summarily expelled from the township of Ander
don, Essex county, in Canada. This township
was as thickly populated with negroes as anv
in Canada, but they have lately become so bold
in their depredations and crimes that their pres
ence was no longer endurable Accordingly.
the authorities of the township petitiored the
grand jury last fall to take action relative to
them; and the jury, in consequence, presented
them as nuisance. Their outrages eliminated
few weeks since IN an attack upon a number
of peaceable and defenceless citizens and now
the day of retrbution has overtakea them. The
whole lot have been suinmarily driven out of the
township. They had been given homes. but
they so abused the kindness extended them, that
the authorities were obliged, in order to protect
their lives and properly, to drive them out as
they would so many Wild beasts.
