become either a farce or a fraud. They are
used or misused by reckless politicians, who

ICorresporidenoe of The Press.l
New York, August 29,1850.
Pcrfeotion In printing-presses is not yet attained.
A fresh and very practionl exemplification of this
foot will £Oou he mado in a where tho prac
tical has. always beonmado tho,. rule and not the
exception. When Hoe’s mammoth eight-oylinder
press waa'pift in operation arid found to.be suooess
ful, it was supposed that nothing moro remaiued to
be done.', ;We had surpassed' all our provious efforts
in that way, and beaten even the London Timex /
but the New York Sun, which has been a sort of
pibnepr jo pfJnting r machinory improvements, w|il
soon have within iU yaqltj n of Yankee,
■ngcnuity that will leave in the shade all previous
contrivances for rapid printing, and. compel its
competitors to throw arid* tWpresacs now lu use.
The has now in process of coristruotioD,
at a cost of forty thousand dollars, a press that
possesses this advantage—namely, it’ will feed
itself and print both aide? of. the paper at the
same time, and with the, , same rapidity that ono
sldo is printed on the mammoth Hoe presses,now
ip u.se by tho Times, Herald , and Tribune.’ The
feeding arrangopippt is an invention of Taylor’s,
arid has for some time put la' finecesaful uso
at Harper’s establishment, where, * by ‘ the way,
has recortiy boon pat in operation ariotherlabor

that .will wet el* tipnes more paper than tho most
expert.operator can wot by band, and without re
quiring tho person handling the paper to touoh the

' Tho poatjjjaster, of this city, in his efforts to ox

As tho day approaches for tho great international

of interest is manifested in all that xelaks to it.
