The “in ' and The Press
The only theme now to be touched upon
to command universal interest is the war.
What would be the feelings of apeople in
profound peace to hear daily of domestic
slanghterings of hundreds, thousands, as
the case may be 1’ We grow calloas, spite
of all the depths 0t humane sentiment
which mark this epoch, above and beyond
the periods when barbarous punishments
and Sports were the rule, not the excep-
tion. Thirty odd States : and all at war:
and nearly every State as large as an old .
fashioned Empire. The wars of Homer,
so celebrated in statuesque stone were
more like a set-t0 between two tom-cats
. in a back yard, than a mighty gathering
of hosts, when we consider the numbers
engaged, in that decimating ten years’
light before Troy, and compare them with
the million men under arms. New-York
alone would stand for the numbers en-
gaged in many such wars. Nay, to'come
nearer; our own times, for comparison,
this State of the lakes and the bay, puts
forth as many men as those engaged in
the Thirty Years’ War. No age is clas—
sic or heroic to itslf. We cannot deify
our own time, any more than the valet
could make a hero of his military master.
We must apply a telescope and not a mi-
croscOpc to things historical, before they
become vast, mystic, supernal ; in order
to clench the imagination as with a migh-
ty hand rising from out the grave, and
magnetize it with a ghostly eye, and tho-
Spiritual gaze of another world. But
could we only grasp the magnitude of im-
mediate events as We do those of past
ages,.how colossal would they stride from
North to South; how they would peer
into the lofticst regions, like Milton’s hero'
whose “stature reached the clouds, and
on his brow, horror sat plumed”l——Wit-
llCSS, too, the vast organizations of the
daily press to see, hear, report, print, and
circulate, particulars and generalities con-
cerning the war in all its locations
and amplitudes ; a system of“ ob-
servation and histriography such as we
make hold to declare, the wildest visions
of Press-possibilities never conceived of
before—and under which Ihe lying on
system of heroes N apoleou 1, pro-eminent
among all, of other days, is impossible.
Comes there a battle in the far South
West, or West, or the Central Grand A“-
my ; with what promptitndc, decision,
force, eloquence often is it reported ?
And while yet the air is thick with the
breath of the dying, and the earth has
not yet soaked up the blood of the mar,
tyrcd, the whole picture-page of battle is
given in the press; not simply with a
perfect classification of details as to time,
place, and technical general statement,
but for the first time in history—because
our Men do not “light under the dark
shade of aristocracy”———nre all their names
gazcttcdin full—the corporal with the
colonel, the drmnmcr-boy with the division
general. This to us, hardened as we are
with long, long drudgery over the desk’s
dead wood in the printing office, is sub-
lime. The organi-zation of the Press is
so snbcrp that we are lifted in its con-
templation to the works of nature in her
grandest and most harmonious move-
ments. For the hell-flame of battle is
lighted at one end of the telegraph and
the next instant blazes in THE TRIB'
L'NE ofiice : in an instant a hundred com-
positors with fingers light as Ariel’s cir-
cles seize the electric-hurled facts, and
weave them into the magic characters of
Faust : and in another moment the GREAT
STEAM-PRESS, like ’l‘crra, bringing forth
the Titans, labors in thc huge delivery of
terrible entities, which lend heart and
hope, dcspnir and desolation, as j
they strike home with the tunes of triumph
orbereavcmcnt. And yet there are muck-
worms ofcriticisms, and outside the-Press,
incapable of constructing a paragraph
which shall say what they mean, or mean
what they say, who are forever begriming
the Press on the ground of Sits want of
accuracy, precisiOn, decision. To such
crawling things, we say that. the govern-
ment of this country is not at Washing.
ten and in the public offices, and the
Capital. It. lies in this City of New
York" with its wealth, and its energy,
and its—above all else—ifs Press. Here
is the word of command truly spoken. It;
may seem not so, to the blind, but to men
of vision who do not mistake shadow for
substance, this is a tremendous fact
Hence all the more necessity for the Press
to“ worship truth—especially in this era
of civil strife and bloodshed.

. WDespatches from Nashville, fully
cnfirm the authority of the rebel papers
at Lynchburg, of the destruction of a
large portion of the East Tennessee Rail-
road, and the bridges at Zollicoffer and
‘Watuga. It appears that Col. Carter, iii-
stead of attacking Knoxville, as reported,
made a more important military coup by
(cutting off the railroad connection between
"the rebel army in the West and the cue-
my’s position in Virgina. Which be ac-
comblished by the complete destruction
of the railroad at the different points.
It was a brilliant effort, and seems to
have been well executed, The Philadel-
phia Press has a Nashville dispatch which
says that all the bridges in East Tennes-
‘Iisee have been burned, that Col. Bruce
has recaptured Clarksville, Tenn, and
taken a. number of prisoners and eight
thousand barrels of flour which he sends
to Nashviilc. -

Gotta Percha & India Rubber
' CEMENT BOOPING.
r \HIS article has been thoroughly tested by
builders, Architects, and others, and the
experience of years has proved it to be the
cheapest and most din-able roofing in use.
We call attention to the following facts :
lst—It is fire and water proof.
2d—From its great elasticity it is not inju-
riously affected by extremes of heat and cold.
3d—It is adapted to all kinds of Roofs,
Whether steep or flat, and is not in want of
constant repairs, as is the case with metal and
other roofs.
4th—The cost is only about One-Half that
of Tin, and it is twice as durable.
It is readily applied to Old Shingle Roofs,
without removing the shingles, which is a
great desideratum to parties who do not wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being made.
Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily re-
paired with Gutta Percha Cement, and
prevented from further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight roof
for many years.
Specimens of the Roofing can be seen by
calling on the subscriber, at South N orwalk.

“life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”-
Republican in its steadfast, earnest, defiant
hostility to every scheme and effort of the
Slave power, from the Annexation of Texas
to the great Rebellion, to grasp the empire of
the New World and wield the resources of
our country for its own aggrandizement—Rc-
publicnn in its antagonism to the aristocrats
and despots of the Old World, who fondly
bail in the perils and calamities suddenly
thrust upon IIS by their American counter-
part ihe overthrow and ruin of the Model
chublic—chublican in its hope and trust,
its faith and efforts, that this atrocious Re-
bellion must resultiin the signal'overthrow
of its plotters, and the firm establishment of
equal rights and equal laws throughout the
Whole extent of our country, wherein Lib-
erty‘and Union shall indeed be “ one and in-
separable" henceforth and forever.
THE TRIBUNE devotes attention in calmer
times, and to some extent in these, to Edu-
cation, Tomperance, Agriculture, Inventions,
and whatever else may minister to the spir-
itual and material progress and well-being
of mankind; but for the present its energies
and its columns are maini devoted to the in-
vigoraiion and success 0 the War for the
Union. Its special correspondents accom-
pany every considerable army and report
every important incident of that great. strug-
gle which we trust is soon to result in the
signal and conclusive triumph of the Nation-
al arms and in the restoration of Peace and
Thrift to our distracted, bleeding country.
We believe that no otherwise can a fuller or
more accurate view of the progress and char-
acter of this momentous Conflict be obtained
than through the regular perusal of our col-
umns. Andwe earnestly solicit the co-ope-
union of all friends of the National cause,
which we regard and uphold as that of Uni-
versal Humanity, to aid usin extending its
circulation.

RUNNING STITCH
SEWING MACHINE.
It is a. PRACTICAL, RAPID, EFFICIENT and
DURARLE SEWING MACHINE, adrpted to a
large preportion of FAMILY SEWING, or for
manufacturing purposes, and is highly orna-
mental, and is so light. and portable, (weigh-
ing less than one pound) that it canbe con-
veniently carried in the pocket or reticule.
Its operation is so very SIMPLE that It re-
quires but a Slight. degree of judgment to
use it. .
By the simple turning of a crank with one
hand, and guiding the work With the other,
it silently yet very rapidly with a COMMON
NEEDLE makes the running stitch EXACTLY
LIKE HAND SEWING, only more perfect and
regular.
It will HEM, GATHER, RUFFLE, SHIRR, TUCK,
RUN UP BREADTIIS, etc, with a single or
double thread on any material adapted to
the RUNNING STITCH, from the LIGHTEST
and THINEST up to two thicknesses of ordi-
nary silk or muslin. The thinnest, usually
the most difficult to stitch by other sewing
machines, being sewed the easiest. For 1a-
dies’ and children’s apparel, and other arti-
cles made of light fabrics, it will therefore be
found almost INVALUABLE. '
It is attached to the table like a sewing
bird, and having no tension, and requiring
no lubrication or change of stitch, is always
ready for operation, and such a marvel of
simplicity that a child of six or eight years
can UNDERSTAND it immediately, and use it
SUCCESSFULLY.
It is not at all liable to get out of order.
Each machine is put up in a neat box, ac-
companied with full and explicit directions
and twenty—five needles.
Sent to any address in the United States
on receipt of an order, inclosing the amount,
or may be collected by Express on delivery
of the machine.
Agents wanted every where, to whom the
most liberal inducements will be offered.
For particulars, specimens of sewing, etc,
send a. stamp for return postage. Address
MHE. DEHOREST. No. 473 Broadway, N. Y.
W Every Lady, Mother, Milliner, and
Dress-maker, should have one of these valu-
able Sewing Machines.

BEGINNING OF A NEW VOLUME.
THE NUMBER FOR JANUARY, 1863, BEGINS THE
Cleventh Volume of the,Atlantic Monthly
From the commencement, in 1857, the AT-
LANTIC has rapidly increased in circulation,
and it. now has the largest class of readeis
since its beginning, five years ago. Its pros-
perity steadily augments, and it continues,
amid all the fluctuations and dangers inci-
dent to our national crisis, to gain ground in
the estimation of the public. At a time so
pregnant with events which touch the future
destinies of America in every vital particular,
the Publishers and Editors do not deem it
necessary to promise that its pages will nev-
er swerve from the honest paths of loyal pa-
triotism and universal freedom. Its opinions
have always been on the side of Liberty,
Progress, and Right, and the course it first
adopted in its early career, will ever be faith-
t‘ull maintained. ‘

SOUTH AMERICA—The Publishers have just
received an application from the “director
of the collegiate institution at Nova Fribur-

“Pictorial illustrations only.” The professor
says, “They Would be useful to me in some
of the classes of‘ the sciences.” The illus-
trations are never sold separately from the
body of the work, but this application indi-
cates a high appreciation of their beauty and
utility. '

Sales 01' “’ebster’s Dictionaries.
From certain published statements of the
lcading booksellers from every part of the
country. it would seem that the sales of the
various editions of Webster's Dictionaries
are enormous, exceeding many times the
sales of all other dictionaries put together.
We learn that there are five different edi-
tions of our great American lexicographer
now published in England, besides several
English dictionaries which are confessedly
based on Webster. A recent article in the
London Critic admits that the orthography
of Webster‘s Dictionary is all but universal
in the United States.
