BASE BALL. The game of base ball between
the PRESS and Argus Mines which comes off
on the Park grounds this afternoon is the talk
OF the town. Both Mines are in good condition
and full of confidence, though the Argus crowd
are particularly inflated, the result partly of
setting" leaders in defence of the Ohio Demo-
cratic platform. The uniform of the Argus
men will consist of sombre black, style of
garment adopted in respect to the memory of
Millard Fillmore, for whom the editor of that
paper has recently put on mourning. The
PRESS men will illustrate true democracy by
wearing their every day clothes
Ample precautions have been taken against
serious accidents. Every member of the Mines
carries an accident policy in his pocket while
those in the more exposed positions will wear
coats of mail beneath their other garments.
The catchers will be provided with pig skin
mittens, padded, while the pitchers will wear
helmets to guard against red hot balls from the
bat. The short stops, it is rumored. will be
furnished with boards which can be converted
into breastworks if emergency requires. The
fielders and basemen will depend for protec-
tion on the experiences in lodging balls which
they have acquired during the last few days
practice. Several eminent surgeons will be on
the grounds and all the remedies which science
has discovered will be at hand.
The usual jollity which belongs to these oc-
casons will not be seen this afternoon. The
sad demise of John Huss and Napoleon Bon
aparte and Alexander Hamilton and Willard
Fillmore and our own Gov. Lincoln has
chastened the spirits of the Argus men, and
though the PRESS Nine have been aware of
these deaths long enough to recover from their
first anguish yet, out of respect to their
brethren, they will abstain from all levity and
seek to bind up the broken hearts of their CD.

For more than four years have given my
best thought, and liberal expenditure of money
to an invention for making perfect stave or
shook, with taper proportional to its width.
The result is, machine which, in competent
hands, turns off more work and better work in
the same time than any heretofore used, and
this, too, at an actual saving of lumber.
These points l have demonstrated practically
and in a year of travel and effort in the coun
ties of Cumberland, Oxford and Lincoln, have
so far convinced some who thought me mistak-
en- that they now conceGe that all my claims
for my invention were just. They confess that
in this case the new is better than the old. and
they buy and use the new.
am very sure that many other reluctant
ones will in time overcome their preiudices,
and be satisfied with nothing inferior to what
offer them. Indeed, the attempts made to fur.
nish a machine which shall do the same work
as mine, and cost less, is evidence to me that
the trouble is not SO much with the machine as
with its price. 70 such reluctant ones, and to
any who may be interested in the stave and
shook business, wish to say, that if my ma
chine costs the purchaser something, time and
use will show him that it is worth something.
If it costs him something, it has cost me more
Any man can sell his wares cheaply who bor-
rows his capital and neglects to pay his debts.
L am entirely.willing that any man shall invent
better article than mine and put it upon the
market at his own price, but am not willing
that another shall appropriate the results of
my thought and toll, and attempt to undersell
me in market of my own making 1 have
paid for the right to make and use what 1 am
making and using, and propose to take care of
my own. "All mems corns are tender"
