HE want of a cheap proof press
has long been felt by publishers Of
country papers and small JOB Offices.
The undersigned knowing this from
experience, has invented a press OF
this sort (similar to Hoe & Co:'s) and
offers it to the craft as the cheapest
in the market. Instead of a solid
cast-iron cylinder, it is made of sheet
iron and filled, being a decided i'm
provement, as it gives elasticity to
to the cylinder. The cost of an Or
dinary proof press is $50, while this

We publish elsewhere the account of the
brilliant achievements of our feet. Two
forts mounting az guns, have been captured,
large quantities of ammunition seized and
position obtained for the further prose
cution of the war The negroes were flock
ing to our army and rendering aid in
throwing up Qualifications Il win be seen
that the noble frigate Wabash led the at
tack This vessel, one of the finest in the
navy, was named by our Representative
Hon. j Ohm Law and it is matter of con-
graduation to US Hoosers, that the ffigate,
named after our own Wabash, by citizen
of Evansville, was the first to begin the
engagement, which reflects new lustre upon
the fame of the Navy of the United States

Prospects of the Campaign.
WASHINGTON, November

WASHINGTON, November y
Despite the stories prevalent, that Gen.
Mcclellan will soon order the army OF the
Potomac into winter quarters, | am inform
ed that the Commanding General has no
such intention, but expects that there WILL
be some hard fighting in this vicinity be-
fore the winter fairly sets in. Very much
depends upon the result of the coast expe-
dition. and if it is successful, blow will
be struck here within two CT three weeks.
There is a general expectation that some
thing will be done on the Lower Potomac
in case severe weather should freeze the
river to d sufficient depth TO bear troops
and army trains In that event an army
ouartered in the lower counties OF Mary
land might cross directly over to Richmond
This idea mas been preached by military
| men. but it is defective III one point as q
plan of operatiOn5-tOo much Is left to con
! tingency 1t is only about once in three
4 wears that the Potomac is frozen over solid
/ enough to bear Gu army upon its breast,
and again. sfcold term" in this latitude
does not last but short time, and an army
attempting to march on Richmond on fro
zen ground would be likely TO be caught by
a thaw, before half its journey was per-
formed. 1t would be very unsafe to rely
upon cold weather or a frozen river for
three weeks together.
General Mcclellan is determined to acI
upon the advice given him by Gen Scott
not to be driven into any movement, by
outside pressure, which his Judgment does
not approve. He told General Blenker
day or two since 81 will not fight till am
ready though all the world were at my
heels" Yet it is certain that he expects te
clear the Potomac of rebel batteries before
the first of January, and the thing canno
be done without beating the enemy either
in battle or strategy.

The l4TH GMENF.-Msjor Harrow, oil
the l4th regiment, has arrived in Indianap-
oils, for the purpose of making arrangements
for removing the gallant 18th Westward.
He says that the troops in the vicinity of
Huttonville are comfortably clothed and
well fed. They are destitute only of socks.
blankets and gloves. The Government is
unable to supply socks and blankets-it
does not supply gloves. Donations ofeither
of these articles will be thankfully received.
The troops there are all anxious to 90 to
Kentucky. Gen. Reynolds old brigade, as
now organized at HuttonsvilIe, have petit
toned for removal, claiming that as they
were the first to enter that portion of Vir-
ginia and have done much of the hard work
in the advance and as there is now no
longer need of them there, they have right
to BE- transferred to more civilized country.
The Indiana regiments also unite in re-
commencing that Col Nathan Kimban. of
the Fourteenth Indiana, be promoted 20
Brigadier-Generalship. Indiana is entitled
to several more Brigadiers, AMI certainly no
one in the service is more entitled to pro-
motion than Col Kimball. His qualidca-
tons are undoubted he served with fdeli
ty through the Mexican war. He was the
first to take possession of Cheat Mountain,
and as commander of that post, he has won
the admiration of all who had intercourse
~ith him. He is always cool, quick, and as
courageous as lion. To these admirable
qualities he adds that of constant attention
to his men, and untiring industry to their
welfare Ae is the soldiers friend, and as
such beloved by all. We hope to see the
gallant Colonel promoted.
