Sickness In Halleck's Army.

Physicians connected with the Cincin-
natl Sanitary Commission have just re~
turned from HALLEcK's camp, and give un.
favorable accounts of the health of the
army. Notwithstanding the thousands that
have been brought away since the battle OF
Shiloab, it is estimated that the entire num-
Der that should now be brought away will
exceed ten thousand men. The army has
advanced from Pittsburg some fifteen miles,
but the sick have been left behind. In the
old camps there are not less than three
thousand sick, and in the hospitals two
thousand seven hundred more, and tho sickly
season is just beginning. The physicians
had an interview with Gen. HALLECK, but
it was necessarily short, though satisfactory.
AS they went in he was pacing the room,
where be had taken temporary quarters,
apparently unconscious Of all that was going
on about him; deeply engaged, no doubt,
in considering plans for the approaching
battle, upon which is hanging the destiny
of nation. He referred the Commission
to the Medical director, to whom the whole
charge Of the sick was given.
Our armies are wasting away much faster
by sickness than by the casualties of battle.
The hospitals near each division are crowded,
and the long lists, in the finest type, of those
who are sent away from the camps to the
North, are saddening indeed. No one can
peruse them, out of curiosity or in search
of the names Of friends, without having a
vivid conception of the untold horrors of
war.

REMOVAL OF TEE EMBARGO OF CERTAIN
PoRTs.-The President has issued procla-
nation declaring that the blockade OF the
ports of Beaufort, Port Royal and New Ors
leans shall so far cease and determine from
and after the list of June next, that com.
mercial intercourse with these ports, except
as to persons and things and Information
contraband of war, may from that time be
carried on, subject to the laws Of the Unit
ed States, and to the limitations and in pur-
suance of the regulations which are pre-
scribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.

Cambridge, May 5, 1862.
Indiana Politics.

The election campaign for the October
canvass has fairly opened in Indiana, and
Jesse D. Bright, who was expelled from the
United States Senate for alleged completely
with JEFF. Davis in his work of rebellion,
is already in the field with his secession sym.
pathizing ticket for State officers. The
ticket thus put forward is composed CT the
following names:
Secretary of State-James 8. Anthem.
Treasurer-Mathew L. Brett.
Auditor-Joseph Ristine.
Attorney General Oscar B. Hord,
Superintendent of Public Institutions-Sam.
uel L. Rugg.
For the latter office the Convention had
nominated Milton B. Hopkins; but, as the
company into which be had thus been thrust
did not suit his taste, be withdrew his name,
and substitute was provided. The object
of Mr.. Bright is to endeavor to keep up the
organization of the secession democracy,
and if possible to secure majority in the
next Legislature, in order that he may re-
gain his seat in the United States Senate.
But it requires no sagacity to see that he
will be doomed to disappointment. Hum
dreds of the old line democracy have already
forsaken his standard, and large number
of the domestic journals in the State refuse
absolutely to support the ticket. A Union
Convention has been called, to meet at In
dianapolis on the 18th of June, and this
gathering will embrace all the conservative
men of both parties, who will shape their
course in such satisfactory manner as to
eventually leave the Bright secessionists and
abolitionists high and dry upon the bank
together.

We sometimes think our readers do not
fully realize how rapidly Minnesota is grow
ing in material wealth. Until within year
or two it seemed to be entirely natural, that
all our lard, pork and beef should be brought
from below; and now, that we have large
quantities Of these articles to ship from the
State, appears almost incredible; but that
such a reversion in trade has taken place in
so short time, is demonstrated almost
daily, by the receipts from the interior Of
the State, and the shipments south by the
boats; and it is great fact for Minnesota
to boast Of that she already produces as
much grain as the present tonnage on the
river can carry out in one season.

PROVIDING AGAINST A FAMINE IN New
ORLEASs.-A dispatch from New York
states that movement is making by the
Government which indicates design on its
part to assist the starving people of New
Orleans, as in the case of those at Newber,
and other points. In accordance with o..
ders received at New York, the steamer
Ocean Queen is to be loaded with com mis-
sary stores and sent direct to New Orleans.
1t is understood that these stores are for
distribution as General Butler may direct.

account of the passage through storm
OF fire from Forts jackson and Phillip, CT

TO BOILING MILLS
IRON MANUFACTURERS
AND
Capitalists.
CLEVELAND. Jan. 20. 1862.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 20, 1862.
The subscribers have the New England
and Eastern States for sale, for TsylOrs
Pressed Horse Shoe Patent.
Msssrs. Stone, Chisholm s JONES' Of this
city, have purchased the Western States,
and have q machine in operation st their
Rolling Mill at Newburgh, where parties
can see It produce horse shoes Of all sizes,
equal to a hand made shoe. It is simple
in lie construction, and capable Of making
twenty horse shoes per minute. Every
shoe Is subjected to pressure Of City tons,
which Oompsots and oOndenses the iron,
thereby rendering ii harder and more du-
rable.
This machine can make q shoe Of any
style or form, simply by changing the die
to the shape required.
We give here description Of the ma
chine, and testimonials from the best me-
chAnios, blaeksmiths, and dealers in the
city:
The machine is neither complicated nor
ponderOus, and is worked by Q small
amount Of power, judioiOusly applied
Horse shoe iron, such as is used by black.
smiths In forging horse shoes, is employed
The machine is worked by q man and q
boy, the latter to attend TO the furnace in
which the bars of iron are heated, and the
former TO feed the machine. At the mo-
ment the bar Of iron, heated TO red heat
at the end, is thrust into the machine, q
gate or jaw, moved up and down by an CO.
centric, desoends on the bar, bending 1t to
proper shape over horizontal shaft, called
"mandrill," about three inches in diane
ter, which is thrust forward ct that mo
ment by cam movement. At the same
time the bar is cut, and Q die carried
against the shoe by an eccentric working
in yoke, produces the crease and stamp
ing on the face Of the shoe, when the man
drill draws back and the shoe drops from
the machine complete. The die weighs
about twelve pounds, and is furnished with
knife for creasing and punching. The
knife is sttsched by means Of screws, ami
can be readily removed when worn out, to
give place to new one.
There have been several machines in
vented before Cor msnuiaoturin horse shoes,
but sll more or less complicated and i'm.
perfect. TsylOr's machine is the only one
thGt cuts the iron, bends the shoe, stamps
and creases it at one revolution Of the ma
chine, and this is accomplished with COM
mon horse shoe bars, just as they are re-
eeived from the Rolling Mill. For further
evidence of the practical excellence Of the
machine and superiority Of the shOe which
it produces, We annex the following testi-
monials;
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1862-02-04

The subject Of these brief lines Is one Of
whom formed an Acquaintance In Cinoin-
natl during my pastoral charge Of New street
Church. Through the whole Of my career
Is q public minister Of the Gospel, never be-
fore had my attention been 80 forcibly at
tracted by mortal being, who, to all ap-
pearanee in life and action, did possess that
grace, purity, dignity and beauty, as an an
gel Of heaven, robod in q mantle Of human
clay.
All that could be conveyed in tho words
"mild, gentle, Obedient, kind, chasts, and
beautiiul;" all appeared 70 hsrmonize in
the human creature here attempt to des-
cribe. It was Miss Frances Ellevis Leach,
now the departed joy and hope Of her be-
reaved parents At the time of my frst in
PRODUCTION there appeared such dignity,
blended with afability, purity and easy de-
pertinent of life, such childlike reverence for
her parents, combined with a mature sense
and love of duty, that was led to the con-
clusiOn that she was far above the ordinary
standard of persons in her years and position.
A sense of propristy was dominant in her
thoughts mOdesty appeared as her natural
habiliment; duty her first impulse, and
goodness her native element. A brief inter-
view with her at q tea party, among the
most piOus and respectable citizens of Gin
einnat, convinced me OF her extraordinary
power of intellect, and I took pride in the
idea that Ahe was one of Gods own models
for society in days to come. Would we had
moro such models in our young female soci-
cites on earthI What power of renovation
to our moral world would such be in the
coming years Of our race.
A year and a few feeting months have
passed away, and lol she is numbered with
the silent assembly of the dead. Yes, that
beautiful star, which had but risea in our
human horizon, was TO sit in the sombre
shades of death ere it reached its meridian
How bitter the cup of disappointment and
sorrow her desr bereaved parents are called
to partakel Yet, thank God there is q ray
of Heavens consolation in this sad allotment
of Providence. That unfettered spirit basks
in the light of Gods throne now, and Hope
sings from the azure skies the hour of fu-
ture and glorious meeting, when we shall
have accomplished our earthly studies in
this varied school house Of human proba-
ton. Farewell, loved onei Rest in peace.
Shout, Francis Ellevla, thou heroine, at last
The mantle of clay from thy spirit Is cast
Thou art loOsd from this planet of tombs
Thou hast gone to world inefably bright,
Where the clOudiest day, or serenest night,
In the lap Of Eternity blooms.
1 long to behold thee in that blest abode,
Where, with Parents, and Angels, our Saviour
and God,
Ever freed from all sorrow and pain.
There we shall shout glory, yes, glory to God,
Sav'd through the rich merits of Jesus blood,
We shall EeVer be parted again.

soLD1ERs' AID soo1ETT AND ARTENUs
VANS LEoTURE.-We are glad to learn
that ffom the Lecture Of Artemus Ward, on
Friday evening, the Soldiers Aid Society
viii realize the handsome sum of $2T5. The
audience numbered nearly 1850 probably
. larger audience than ever before assem-
bled in the Academy OF Music. We con-
gratulate that noble benevolent institution,
the eoldiers' Aid Society, upon the success
that has attended this effort to rsplenish
their treasury. We commend TO our citi-
zeus more estimate acquaintance with the
efforts of this organization, feeling satisfied
that if but 4 small part Of the good done BY
it to eur sick and wounded soldiers were
made known, they would more cordially
support and encourage these noble ladies il
their work Of patriotism and humanity.

CAPT. sPRIaUE AT oBERLIE.-Capt. ]. W.
spraeue spoke to an audience oftwelve hun
drsd in the oberlin Church, on Saturday
evening. A slight entrance fee was charged,
and the entire proceeds of the lecture (the
Captain having generously refused even to
receive payment for his travelling exPenses)
are to be devoted to removing the bodies of
jenkins and Collins (of Company 9, Tth
Ohio, who fell In the battle Of Cross Lanes,)
from Virginia soil, and erecting over their
graves q suitable monument.
The lecture was substantially the same
with that delivered in Cleveland, sanduskyi
&c. It was concluded by q feeling tribute
to the worth of Capt. shurtleH, IWho shared
with the speaker the hardshiPsiOf captivity
At the close of the lecture Prof. Peck made
the cheering announcement that at the ur
gent request of the Hon. H. G. Blake, th'
War Department had agreed to make specia
efforts for the immediate release Of Captain
shurtlef and his men.
