TYPE-sErTTNG MACHINEs.

In no department Of printing has there been
moro unwearied perseverance than in the per-
fection Of type setting machines Their FEAST
bility was hrst proclaimed by Dr. Church in 1923.
but he never succeeded IN his experiments. His
ideas were adopted, modified, and improved bv
many European inventors, but in All casps with
out any practical result One Of these European
machines was set up in the office of the New
York Sun abOutlSi6, and proved, by its work
ing, the pos iblty Of the often declared impossi-
BILE invention. les economy was not so apparent
and tne patentets abandoned H. Other inventors
have been more perscveriug and more fortunate.
There is type.setting machine ow I'm such sue

feel warranted in advertising to do composition
at great reduction on esmblished prices The
ntst practical success must be conceded TO Br

Mr. Irow, OF this city, has several OF them I'm

by the operator, who justhcs his own matter.

1854.
Its most formidable rival appears to be the

Utah and Minerals.

Brigham Young has kept the Mormons
from hunting after precious metals which
are believed to abound in Utah, in the
mountains The time has come when it is
no longer in his power to prevent mining
there. A circular has been issued fiem the
headquarters of the District of Utah, sign
ed by order of Brigadier Gen. Conner.
in this circular, which is dated November
18th, the belief is expressed that the coun-
try is rich in minerals and it is stated that
for opening it, to "Ne,c, industrious and
hardy population" the search for minerals
should not only be unshackled but fostered.
The circular announces that prOspectors and
miners will be protected when necessary, by
the military, and directs that soldiers at the
several posts shall, whenever convenient. be
permitted to prospect for mineral. The doc
ument deals in such generaliteS, as that
these mountains are the property OF the ma
ton, which policy it has been to extend the
'broadest privileges" to her citizens and to
invite them to seek, find and enjoy the rich
es of its domain. Commanders of posts,
etc. are ordered to afford every facility for
CARRYING out the objects of this circular,
and to report from time to time what pro-
gress has been made in developing the min
eral wealth of the country.
Look at the map and see whore this little
colony of Mormons fled to, thinking to es'
cape the rolling tide of American progle IS.
Inviting people they themselves fur,
nished the very inducements which brought
right in into their Wilderness home, the wag-
on of the emigrant, and the protecting laws

Selstt poetrp.


When nature was sinking in stiffness TO rest
The last beam Of daylight shone dim in the west
The moon cast her paleness in lone solitude,
In deep meditation wandered abroad.
While passing garden fingered to hear,
voice, faint plaintiye, from one kneeling there
The voice Of the supplisnt affected my heart,
While pleading in anguish, the poor sinners part
In offering to heaven his pityng prayer,
tie spake Of the torments the sinner must bear
His life as a ronsom he offered 10 give,
That sinners redeemed in glory might live.
listened moment, then turned me to zee
What man Of compassion this stranger could be /;
When lo discovered, knelt ON the cold ground,
The lOyelest being | ever had found.
His mantle was wet with the dews Of the night
His locks by pale moonlight we're gistning & bright
His eyes, mildly beaming. to heaven were raised
While round him in grandeur stood angels amazed
So deep was his sorrow, SO fertent bis prayers,
That down DER his bosom rol'd blood sweat tears
wept to behold Him, and asked Him his name
He answered, "Tis Jesus! From heaven came ;
"I am thy Redeemer--for thee must die;
The cup is most bitter, but cannot pass by;
Thy sins, which are many, are laid upon me,
And all this sore anguish | suffer for thee"'
heard with deep sorrow the tale of his wo,
While tears of repentance mine eyes did Oerhow;
The cause Of his sorrows to ear Him repeat,
Pierced deeply my bosom-I fell at his feet.
In humble contrition poured out my cry,
"Lord, save poor sinner, o save or | die"
He smiled when he saw me, and said to me, Live
Thy sins, which are many, freely forgive
How sweet was that sentence! 1t made me rejoice
His smiles, how consoling how charming his voice
| ran from the garden TO spread it abroad,
Add shouted, "Salyation! o glory to Cod"
I'm now on my journey, to mansions above
My souls full Of glory, Of light, peace and love
/ think of the garden, the prayers and the tears
OF my pleased Jesus, who banished my fears.
The day of bright glory is rolling around,
When Gabriel descending. the trumpet will sound
Ny sou! to the Savior, in raptures shall rise,
And see Him forever, with unclouded eyes
Holmes County farmer. [volume] (Millersburg, Ohio) 1857-1926, 1864-01-14

Old Mr. V, well-to-do farmer out
in Illinois, had some Marriageble Daughters;
and, being one of that class of men who
think that their daughters should get mar
ried as soon as they are out of their short
clothes, felt somewhat chagrined that his
Gals should remain no his hands 50 long.
Now there was a young fellow in the
neighborhood who had been waiting on
the v gals for some time, and had
gone the rounds from oldest to youngest;
and the old man had been anxiously waiting
for, and expected young B to ask his
consent" for some of the girls, but as yet
had waited in vain. B, however,
had proposed and had been accepted; but
the old folks had not been made acquainted
with the fact.
Now, in the meantime. young B
had purchased fine horse of the old gent,
and had given his note on six months time
for enc hundred dollars. Well, payday
was fast approaching, and B--had not
the ready" to meet it; so the day before
the note become due, young B made
his way over to the old gent determining
to ask him for his daughter-hoping there
by to get an extension on the note at least
As good luck would have it, he met tn
old man in the yard, and was about to g
through with that somewhat embarrassin
ceremony, of ''asking consent, when i'm
agine his surprise and JOY, the old gent brok
out with the following =
| Look here, B, you young rasca
you have been courtin' my Gals fo
more year; you've been gadin' and cut
tin round with the the hull on 'em. Now
your note comes due tomorrow, and L
tell you what Til do You shall marry on
of the gals, | don't care snap which-an
Ill give you a good settin' out, and you
hundred dollar note to boot; and if you don
I'llsue you by thunder. ;,
1T a bargain, says B. III do it,
And the next week there was tall wed
ding down at the old man V 5; am
to this day B chuckles over the way
the old man gave his consent without ask
ing, 'and Il hundred dollar note to boot.
