An exchange' thus describes ifitchell's
type setting maehine, and - commentsupon
it : Nr..Matchell's machine composes and
distributes type, discriminating between
each letter of the alphabet, and, not only
separating each one from its fellows, so as
to place all the A's in one place and all
the B's in another, and so on through the
series, but will place each in proper posi• 1
tion, with its ' foot' and ' faee' and '.n ick'
just where each. ought to he. In order to
work the machine three hands are req_uir
ed, who, with its aid, can do the work of
five; the saving, at this rate, being about
80 per cent. Two of the machines are at
work in London, and a Bible, printed by
its aid in Glasgow, will be shown at the
Exhibition. The common opinion of
practical men concerning this machine is,
that it is a clever toy. - As seen, the in
ventor only allows that, with. its aid, three
men can do the work of five. Against the
saved labor must be placed the cog of the
machine,
and no machinery can ever con
test. with hand labor, where the economy
is not much greater than this. Where
machinery has supplanted men it has done'
so by increasing production enormously.

made by one of the scholars, to which the
instructors replied.

General Banks' Army
A Yew Military - Programme--
The Campaign in the Malian
Bosh Valley.
•
Corre,aondenee. of the Evening Pest.
SEW MARKET, Va., May 19. .
It would seem that General Banks bus
accomplished everything the War Depart
ment wanted him to do in driving the re
bels out of the Shenandoah Valley, and
_
is now to retire to .Strasburg, thitow up
fortifications, and spend the Summer there.
Such a rumor has been in circulation for
some time, but deemed Ccio incredible ; to
be beliehed. Now, however, it 'comes' in
such a shape that it can no longer be
doubted. General :Shields is to cross : the
mountains and join McDowell. while Gen..
Banks holds the Talley and proteets the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Such. is
the plan of operations, and you need not
tear that this information will be contra
band. It, is generally known and discussed
through the army and is the occasion of
great disgust to the soldiers of GPM Banks'
eourmand. The wagon-trains are con
stantly moving, carrying buck all govern
ment stores, and when this is done the
army will also inure hack. in fact a
part of it has done so already. and it is
expected that the rest will follow to-11101 ,
row.
All this, it is said, is done hr express
orders from the Wm. Department. as a
part of the grand plan of the map:tip:—
It will he the occasion of great - rejoining
out the part of the secessionists. who fully
believe that Jackson and his reinforce
ments are the cause of it, and will renew
their belief in Northern cowardice, which
the battle of Winchester had almost beaten
out of them. We must trust to some
other opportimity t.. entirely dispel that.
delusion.
Marking and Registering Sheep. .
31 . r. li. (;. White thlIA 1.1. - -;erihes his
met ii,al of marking she.p in th' V',.•
llrtotpsitii.:Mir, or :
"In all the works upon sheep husbandry
that have come under my notice the meth
ods given are open to objections, the chief
ones being that they mutilate the sheep nn
uecessarily, and are unsightly and too com
plicated. I use a common sprin. b punch,
making a hole three-sixteenths of all inch
near the lower edge of the ear. and near
the head, and suspend a circular copper
label, three quarters ofan inch in diameter,
by means of a split steel ring, (such as is
used to carry keys upon.) f use rings one
inch in diameter. The labels, punched out
ofeighteenouncecopper, will cost six cents
per dozen, and the rings about two dol
lars per hundred.
"A number is stamped upon the label,
and if I wish to know about a sheep, by
turning to the register I find a correspond
ing number in the first column; in the sec
ond, the year of birth ; in the third, the
number of dam ; in the fourth, the numbe r
of sire ; and then any general remarks re
garding appearance, milking qualities, dis
position to be kind or careless with lambs,
weight of fleece and whether,to be discard
ed or retained as a breeder. A cheaper
mode of marking is by means of a zinc la
bel suspended by galvanized wire, but I give
the preference to the one above described.
"I may be wrong in supposing it not to
be in use, but one of our oldest breeders ;
and one who has an extensive acquaintance
among sheep raisers, assured me that h.
had not met with it."
