GOVERNOR PEIRro1NT's OPINION OF THE
RECENT ACTION OF PRESIDENT JOHNSON
Governor Pcirpoint, of Virginia, in con-
verSation this evening, expressed the
opinion that the recent action Of the Pre-
sdent had unsettled the political condi-
ton Of affairs in the State TO a consdera-
bic extent. He has recently travelled over
large portion of the State, and says that
party opposing the call of convention
is being formed. His opinion is, however,
that it will not amount to more than thirty
per cent. of the voters, and thinks the call
for convention will certainly be adopted.
He leaves Richmond tomorrow to deliver
addresses in the southside countless
Herald.

A WRITING MAcHINE.-It seems little
curious to receive the first news Of great
American invention from the other side of
the Atlantic. But we find in our English
exchanges a notice of a writing machine
invented By Mr.. Pratt, Of Alabama, ex-
hibited before the Society of Arts in Lon
don, which promises to relieve the weary
fingers of editors and other like craftsmen.
1t has keys like piano, corresponding, it
may be presumed, to the letters Of the
alphabet, and the motions of the keys
make impressions on carbonized paper,
which is adjusted and changed by other
contrivances in the machine. 1t is said
by those who have witnessed its opera
tons to work we'll and to perform easily
double the labor of the most rapid pen
man. We fear that the machine will need
a long drill, like the piano, before one can
become an adept in its use, otherwise its
cheapness (only fifteen dollars) may bring
it into general usc.-Prouidence Journal
