eFg- We have made the above REDUCTION IN PRI-
CEs with the two fold view of benetng the public and
ourselves The public have been swindled by spurious
machines made in imitation of The metal in them
from the iron casting to the smallest piece, is of poor
quality. Their makers have not the means to do their
work we'll They hid away in secret places, where
il would be impossible to have at their commando the
proper mechanical appliances. 1t is only by doing
great business, and having extensive manufacturing
Establishments that good machines be made at mod
crate prices. The best designed machines, BADLY
MADE, are always liable to get out of ORDER and
sure 70 cost considerable trouble and money to keep
them in repair.
The qualities to be looked for in Machine are:
tany of action at all rates of speed, simplicity
construction, great durability, and rapidly of opera
ton, with the least labor. Machines to combine these
essential qualities must be made of the best metal and
finished to perfection. We have the ways and means,
on grand scale to do this
The purchasers of machines, whose daily bread itmay
concern, will find that those having the above qualities
only work well at rapid well SL0a0 rates of
speed but last long in the finest possible working order
Our Machines, made 6y as will earn more money
with less labor than any others whether in imitation of
ours not. In fact they are cheaper than any other
machines as gift.

The recently published dispatch from Capt.

paration Of the rebels TO annoy our fleet by

Acting master Crocker communicates the
particulars OF an encounter on the morning of
the 26th, when, he says, we were attacked by
n battery of apparently 2 or 3 six-pounders,
concealed in the thicket under the bluff.
Their first shot. from distance Of not more
than 200 yards, took effect in the Sarah Brown,
injurng two of her crew severely. Two other
shots at almost the same distance, fell short,
when a round of grape from the Sarah Brown
and a shell from the kensington, both of which
were dropped with great accuracy into the
midst of of the smoke of their guns, silenced
them completely. Both the Sarah Brown and
the Kensington, together with the rifemen
from all the vessels, commenced firing and
continued till the curve brought them out of
range.
The republican members, between 80 and 60
comprising both Senators and Representatives,
