PRINTING WITHOUT INK A speci-
men of printing without the mixing of The
types has been shown US, and from an ac-
count of the process given in the Printers
Register OF the 9th of May, by Mr.. Kus-

establishment. 1t appears that the system
was invented by a M. Gustave Leboyer,
and is exhibited in the Paris Exposition.
Mr.. Kuster states that he saw the speci-
men referred to (Which contains 14J let
trrs in seven different kinds of types, and
two colors-red and b.ack) composed, and
one hundred copies printed, all in three
minutes, the printing being done in thirty
two seconds. nj. Leboyer las taken out

countries. His machines appear to be

heads, &c. The time expended in the
usual linking process must. of course, be
saved in the working of hand machines.
The colors show no defect of intensity;
they are good colors and well printed. A
chemical paper or other fabrics overlies
the card or paper to be printed on. and
the types are rapidly stamped upon this
endless chemical band, which impresses
the color on the card. The band lasts for
several days in constant work, and costs
only about three half pence. Whether
the types be Of steel We do not know.

taken at once, on the manifold principle

An INCIDENT IN THE BURNING OF run
WISCONSIN, When this steamer was
burning on Lake Ontario, one Of the pas
sen9ers, Mrs. Richards Of Manchester, N.
H., was left with an infant on board. The
cabin boy, Warren Tracy. Of Ogdensburg,
offered to jump overheard and swim ashore
with the infant. The boy being perfectly
cool. the mother reposed confidence in
him and handed him the infant. He i'm
mediately jumped into the water, and not
~ithstanding he was partially stunned by
some one who jumped upon him from tho
wreck, he reached the shore in safety with
his charge The joy Of the mother who
was the last but one TO leave the steamer.
on reaching the shore and finding her child
safe can be better imagined than described.

excessive and unnecessary premium charged in the hrst

The Undiscovered Country.

Where lie these happier hills and madows low

Aught Of that country could we surely know,

Or catch, betilres, with wakeful eyes and clear,
One radiant vista Of the realm before u.s.
With one rapt moment given to see and hear,

To gaze in eyes thit here were lovely only

Without the Children.


Without the Children.
o the weary, solemn silence
or house without the children
o the strange, oppressive stiffness
Where the children come no more
All the longing Of the sleepless
For the soft arms of the children
An the longing for the faces
Pseping through the opening door
Faces gone forevermole.
Strange II is TO wake at midnight
And not hear the children breathing,
Nothing but the old clock ticking,
Ticking, ticking by the door.
Strange to see the little dresses
Hanging up there all the morning;
And the CATERS = ah their patter,
We will hear it neyermors
On our hearth -forsaken ficor.
What is home without the chidreng
'Tis the earth without its yerdufe,
And the sky without the sunshine.

So wen leave this drea,y de@rt,
And wen soilow the Good Shepherd /.

DEATH OF MADAME MURAT.
This lady, who died recently on her
plantation, near Tallahassee, Florida,
was grand niece Of George Washing
ton, and was born in the early por.
tion. OF the present century. About
the Year 1926, she married the Prince
Napoleon Achilles Murat, the eldest
son of Joachim Murat and Caroline
Bonaparte, at one time King and
Queen of Naples. The Prince came
in 1921 to the United States, and set,
tied in Florida, of which State he be-
came citizen. He purchased an es-
tate near Tallahassee, and devoted
himself to literary and scientific pur-
suits until his death, which occurred
III April, 1S47. The lady continued
to reside upon the plantation of her
deceased husband, and during the
late war suffered heavy pecuniary
loss from both Federals and Confed-
crates. .f-tvsng g..... -....... :
After the fall Of the Confederacy,
the Emperor Napoleon, through the
French minister, received information
of her reduced circumstances, and
settled an annuity Of twenty thousand
francs for life on her. Nine. Murat
had no issue. BY right she was a
princess of the French imperial fam
lily, but she never assumed the title.
Soon after the war, she paid a visit
to France, where she was most cor
daily received by the Emperor and
the members of the Murat family.
1t is a singular fact that thepresent
princes and princesses of
the Mmat branch OF the imperial
family Of France are all Americans
by birth, their father, Prince Napo-
leon Lucien Charles Murat, having
Miss, Caroline Georgiana
Frazer, of South Carolina, who sup
ported her husband and children, by
teaching school, until the election
of Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, as
President of the French Republic

NEGRO SUFFRAGE.
Remarks by Stephen A. Douglas.

In view OF the Importance which
attaches to the question OF negro sui
frage, and the zeal manifested by
some, now that the slaves have been
emancipated, TO have them admitted
to full rights Of citizenship, the fol
lowing views upon the subject, e1-
pressed by the late Judge Douglas,
in the discussion with Mr.. Lincoln
before the people Of Illinois. will be
read with interest, and, it may be,
with profit:
~ hold that q 5iegio IS not, and
mere oRqHtto be, It citisea Of the Unit
ed States, : hold this government
was made upon Il 5chite basis, by 'chite
men, tor the bcncft Of 'rhite men and
their po5tcJity toreoer, and should be
administered by,-hite met ald none
otter. l do not believe that the Al
mighty made the negro capable o
self government
Now, l say to YOU, my fellow
citizens, that, in my opinion the sign
ers of the Declaration Of independence
had 10 reference to the negro, what
ever, when they declared all men
created equal They desired TO eN-
press by the phrase white'mon, men
of European birth and EuSopean de-
scent, and had no reference to the
negro, savage Indian, or other de-
graded or inferior races. At that
time, every one Of the thirteen colo
MES was Il slaveho,ding colony, and
every signer Of the declaration repre-
scented slave-holding constituency,
and no one of them emancipated his
slaves. much less offered citizenship
to them. when he signed that dec!ar-
Acknowledgement Republican.
We have already published what
Mr.. Lincoln thought and said at the
same time, i'll his canvass with Judge
Douglas, about negroes voting aud
holding office. etc; but we reproduce
it in connection with the above. The
speech was delivered at Charleston,
