CHARLES HOTEL, A 'WOSDeRFVL 'CIOBR o The Harrisburg Union notices n nowcklcr press recently invented by n gentleman of -that place, Mr. W. O. lficgOE. whieh .wiU. theeditor thinks, entirely supersede albthe presses now in übb. :Tho grinding and the press, flays the Union, aro conhected iu oneifratne, three and a hnlf by four fect,.andfour feet high to the top of the hopper, tho wholo not weighing-morothan ono hundred and fifty pounds.. Yet tiiiß little machine can-be worked by hand, so . as to grind forty bushels of apples in an hour, nnd the grind ing is far superior to that done by the old foshV ioned nut mills. :::::::MAY 3. : This machine consists of two cylinders of about six-inches in-diameter and fourteen inches in length, arranged with iron gudgeons and gCnr : Wheels. These cylinders are set with short teeth in rows, about one inch- apart, the one running three times as fast as the other. The teeth on the slow cylinder are',horizontal, and on the-fast cylinder spiral. The effect of this arrangement is, that the apples will not crowd into the cylin ders too fast so.as to:jam; neither.will they be ,come choked with.pomace, each freeing itself ns it runs, and, instead of the apples being merely crushed, as in the, nut machine,,they aro"com„ pletely rasjsctl, as if they bad passed through a : fine grater.. The pulp falls from tho cylinder in to n slatted tub, with a muslin sheet inside of,it, to provent the pumice from coming through the. isdams p and the moment it is full, it ia drawn forward, under tho press, and another tub subati : tuted in its place. The press consists of a squaro cut ironaorew, similar to: that used in a.hook : binder’s press. This can be scrcwed.down, and the whole of the cider in the tub extracted in Icbs than a minute,.-when it is taken out, the pomace removed, and the other tub brought un der tho press... . The advantage of this macbinels, that it can ;bo carried about any where,.and used in tho house, in tho cellar, in the wash-house, barn, or out of doors, and a farmer can make a barrel of cider whilst his horacs are feeding or resting. ■ But in addition to this, by tho removal of the spiral cylinder and tho substitution of another that la furnished with the machine, it will oht up turnips aud all kinds of roots at the rate of forty bushelß per hour. This is-decidedly one of the greatest machines extant, and wo trust.tho invontor may realize a fortnno from it. For the iUnrnina t'ost , :■ Messrs.

' : ’ if. 1 ’ £ Common Carrie* fit A case of much importance to: business men and common carriers has just been decided by the Supreme Court- of Pennsylvania. .The par ties to,the suit Were ChauteauxvS. Leech. The plaintiffs wero the owners and consignees of.twen ty-four packages ot furs, which were delivered to the. defendant’s agents ntCinoinnati, for trans portation and delivery i to plaintiffs at New York. A bill of lading y,*as given, in which tho word Pittsburgh ” was printed, indicating; tho de fendants argued, that the risk was not to com mence until the goods had arrived at Pittsburgh. The goods were placed by the defendant’s agents on bbapd thesteatner Defiance, whichwas Snagged on her way up to Pittsburgh, ,whereby tho packa ges beear&B wet. The defendants did nothingto wards drying or preserving them, and they were rendered of but little value, the difference boing agreed upon, and for this amount the verdict was rendered for plaintiffs in tho Court bolow. On the judgment an appeal was taken to the Su preme Court of Pennsylvania, when thejadgment of the Court belotr was affirmed. Chief Justice Black delivered the opinion of the Supreme Conrt os follows: The evidence whioh the Court in the sth and Ctk assignments of error is complained of for re jecting, was intended to prove thattbo defendants were not common 'carriers west of Pittsburgh pin other words, that they were not accustomed-to ■carry goods for hire tor nil who ohose to employ them on the Ohio river/ But the evidence wits properly rejected; because athc right of the plain tiff to recover, depended on the obligation ted by.the particular contract onwhich the suit was founded. If they.bound themselves on Ibis occasion to do. the duty of common carriers, if is no defence to say that they, lmd never done so be fore, or that it was not their direct or - principal business. IW.&S. 27 Yeager; 240—1 N. H. 301. • In the 7th specification, it is said, the judge erred,, because he refused to permit the defen dants to ask the question—‘.'What wero thepow ers of Irwin and Poster, and what was the extent of their agency.” When on agent is appointed, a contract made with him about tho business to which the agenoy relates, is a contract with the principal, and the validity of the contract is not affected by a limitation of the agents authority of. which the othor oontracting party had no notice. This would have keen enough to make tho exclu sion of the proposed evidence perfectly propor. But there was another reason. The doiendants did not assert in tho Nisi Prius, nor wsb it. any part of their argument here, that agents had not authority to do what they did. Now if the acts dono by them exposed thoir principal to the risks of common carrier on the Ohio,.the principals cannot, of course, clear themselves from respon sibility, by showing that though they authorised • tho net, they did not intend that its legal effect should, follow. s : Tho greatest pressure of the defendant’s argu ment,wus'em the exception to that port of tho charge which l shhmita to the-jnry the question whether the wonlß4-‘‘tho responsibility of the lino to commence upon the Bhipmentof the goods from Pittsburgh” were or vfeVe'Uot inserted in, or rather left unerased from tho'bß) of lading by mistake. . It was contended that ibbre was no ovidenco of such mistake. But wo think. Othe rwise, for reasons which may he stated very brief ly, A mistake like the one alleged here, can he, proved ne any other fact is proved, by circum stantial oa well as by positive evidence. There are several facts from which it may be inferred. Tho priatodbilt of lading was manifestly intend ed to be used nt Pittsburgh. In Order to make it answer for Cincinnati, it was obviousty proper to strike out Pittsburgh wherever the word oc curred, and iusert Cincinnati. ' It was bo altered in tho date,, and the omis sion to do so at the other piaco certainly looks more like an accident than anything else.- It is not certain, but it is probable, that the object of having the contested clauso in a Pittsburgh bill was to prevent the responsibility of tho defend; ants from commencing when the goods were re ceived at their wnrebouso instead of attaching only from tho time of their actual shipment.— Tho dongerb of thoriver navigation ore except; cd, and this by plain construction makes them liable for tho domnges which arc not excepted. They received tho full freight from Cincinnati to New York, and this is wholly inconsistent with the notion that they wero more agents for tho shipment of the furs and not carriers from Cin cinnati to Pittsburgh ns well ns on nil other parts of the route. Other facts might be mentioned; but these nro enough to show that there whs some evidcuco of mistake, and the Judgo was right in submitting it to the jnry. It is of the utmost importance to the com merce of the country that carriers should bo hold to strict accountability; Gross wroDgs would ho practised every day if tho laws on this subjeot were relaxed. Slight ovidenco ought to bo suf ficient tosetnsido any specinl provision in tho bill of laden which is intended to relievo tho car- Her from his ordinary, legal responsibility, and this not only becausepublic policy requires that carriers should have the strongest interest in tlio performance of their duties, hut also on account of tho manner in which-auoh stipulations arc generally made. Goods are commonly sent by the owner to the carrier’s place of business, wliero they ore received, and the bill of lading made out by the carrier or hisclcrk. It is often not seen by tho owner until it is too Into to in sist on n change of terms. It can hardly bo called at all, for n contract requires tho assent of both parties. Tho better rule perhaps would bo to treat nil provisions of this kind as void, unless inserted by tho express consent Of the employer. The charge that the defendants wero bound to have the furs packed and dried, is said to be er roneous, but that is not our opinion. The do cision of tho judgo on this point is well support ed by clear and unanswerable reasoning; is sus tained by a case directly analogous, (Bird vs. Crowell 1, Missouri 58,j and is opposed by no authority which wo have been able to Cud Judgment affirmed.

Mr. Fbeas;—Amongthe many Inconveniences attending the keeping of potatoes for Intense, is to be enumerated ns perhaps the most trouble some, their tendency to sprout. When vegetation bos onco commenced, a very rapid deterioration 1 in the bating qualities of tho vegotablo is imme diately npporeut. . Tho potato withers, bcccmcs shrivelled and when boiled or otherwise prepared for tho table, is found to bo clammy, devoid of its usual taste, and indigestible. In her opera tions nature requires the assistance'of precisely tho same principles to perfect the samo pro cess of vegetation, which nre asseminl to con fer value upon tho root for eating purposes.— Spronting thcm, or rather rubbing out tho eyes early in the Spring, and keeping tbo roots per fectly excluded from light and warmth, is "per haps the most effectual method of preserving them. But whore this caunot bo done, ■ suffer ing them to remain immersed in a solution am monia and water.—(l onneo of liquor ammonia to a pint.of water,) for sprouting, and to add to the mealiness of tbo vegetable. Where roots are wanted for sea voyages, or for transportation, this method is perhaps preferablo to all others, principally from its entire efficiency. Its cheap ness is another consideration. AftCT the immersion, the.potatoes require to to bo spread on a dry floor, and completely freed from all adhering moisture t they may then be placod in the cellar or stored in an outhouse, and will, keep perfootly sound and hard and in per fect retention of allthoir more valuable eating qualities for six, eight or ten months. . Tho same effect may also ho produced by immersion in a solution of common salt and water, taking eare to mako tho solntlon very slrong, and to remove, by subsequent ablution, tho whole of tho salt. This requires time, and repented changes of wa ter, and on the whole is more expensive tbhn the other. Somo scald their potatoes. This, hewovor, generally ityurea the potato, although it stops the sprouting propensity. If, indeed tho po tatoes bo placed in n tub with many holes in the bottom, and tho tab covered with a coarse, rug, the nffnsion of boiling water will certainly de stroy the gernrinatlvo instinet,. without material ly injuring the root for kcoping. The water posses out rapidly, and tho hot steam, intercept ed in its nseent by tho covering cloth, soon robs tho eyes of their life, with out cooking the pota toes. The cloth-should remain on but a few minutes, and cold water should then bo"|dashed over them till they nre cool. They should then bo dried and put by, in a dark, cool place till wanted.

In: July there came a heavy tornado, and the corn was muoh prostrated,but on exam ination, I.found the hilled piooo was broken off, in many cases, indeed innlmostevory hill, while the unhillcd or level part had esoaped. The con sequence was that tho plants on the latter rose while those on the former did not, but retained’ to a great extent, tho reenmbent position that theyhnd been compelled to take by the wind.— There was also a very, perceptible difference' in tho quantity, of the crop in favor of tho former. Now lot us examine the rcason-for "this. When fresh soil.is brought, up around the com stalk; it indaces a fresh evolution of brace-, or lateral roots, nnd thiß every time fresh accessions of dirt aro made. But the brace roots drnot tend In a very powerful degree, to tho support of tho plant; they are too superficial—the soil is too light, and they sway with tho Bwaying of the' plant. Besides, the effeot of the dirt is to blanch and render brittle tho portion of the stalk, around which it is .placed, and consequently liablo to snap off before even a moderate wind If no dirt was to be brought up, the originnHnterals of brace roots would extend themselves, acquire strength and energy, nnd he capable, by their magnitude and stronghold upon a firm soil, of supporting the plant in any wind. • My plan Sb to plant so as to havo the rowsmn both ways of tho piece, i. cross each other at admits of working the orop with tho barrow or cultivator, and to keep the swfece entirely level There is no philosophy whatever, in-making any elevation above the roots, so far as the support of tho plnnt is cot cemed r andit must be obvious, I think, to every reflecting person, that the exposure of an extra extent of surface, in a dry time, as in the case of hilling, must increase the effeot of dronght FAPBB WARBBOffIE . : Cyroa W.
