X great pleasure in inlrrning Printers generally,
hat they have the exclusive Sight for the snanufac

md more easily handled than the old style. By an
nrrease of at least lift) per cent, ol work is ob
;anied, with a great reduction ol la It* »r. The I**
Suliar advalagcsuf this Press over the old consists
1. In the savin* of tine ia patting "on and tafc

•J. la the saving of lime :n running the bed un
ler and oat from the platiu.
It. in the dying the trisaetas it w sell acting.
4. In the application of the levc.sge, by * iel.
means a very heavy impression is obtained by a
smalt expenditure of physical force.
5. In the saving of tunc and labor of stepp.iu
backwards and lor wants by the pressman, as it is
unnecessary for him to move out of |aa tracks while

<3. Prom the manner tn which the points are at
ached, it being impossible for the biankets to full
up as the form runs under the plabn, which in
he ordinary press remieis the points liable to move.
It is deemed unnecessary to »ji more in refer

AS APPLIED TO VIRGINIA.
There is in the pvssessioi of the .Maasachuaetts
Historical Society, a com of '‘he following desenp
i,on; On one s.de is a shield, on whic h, are quar
tered the arm* •>( England, Scotland, Iftt.a: d and
11r'gtnuie J,*he whole siu-nounled by a crown,
encircled with the word “ Virginia.” 1171.
A similar emu was ting up * f>-w lea’,* since,
and ‘oe {•<.'. >«;.k statnu. w;'* puNian«.d with
the description of it:
•• During the usurpation of Cromwell, the colo
ny of Virginia refused to acknowledge his authori
ty, and declared itself independent. Shortly •/
ter, finding that Crotnweli threatened to send t
lieet aud army to reduce Virgin.a to sulvect’nn,
and fearing the ability of tin* fet-kle Slate to with
stand this'for-c. she m-nt over in • s :«!l shtp, a 1
messenger to Charles w ho accepted the inv itation to
come over, and be King of-Vitgiuia. and was on
the eve of embarking, w hen he was recalled to the
throne of England. As soon as ho was n -to’, d
to the crown of England, in gratitude lor the I >y
alty of Virginia, bo caused her eoalxif arins to be
quartered with those of England, Scotland, and
Iceland, as an independent rorniber qf the empire.
*• The above com is clearly ronfVnatury of these
facts. Hence the or.g:n of the pi.raise ‘Old Do
minion,’ frequently applied to V irgmia.”
’ 'History doca not confirm all these statements,
though it establishes some, and sufficiently dis
closeses in the coiiduqt of Virginia, during the
Protectorate of Or-unwell, a cause for Hie oiigin
of the name “ Oi l domtnian.” The tacts as gath
ered from s var.etyof creditable historians appear
to be thtrSC I
After the death of Charles I., and the installa
tion of Oliver Cromwell ns Pr .lector, the colony
of Virginia refused to acknowledge their anthjn
ty, and Parliament, having subdued opposition
elsewhere, were not disposed to submit to such a
resistance of its authority by the twenty thousand
inhabitants of Virginia. It issued an ordinance
declaring them notorious robbers and traitors: pro
hibited all intercourse with the refractory colonists,
c ther by the people of England, the inhabitants
of the other American settlenc nts, or with foreign
nations, and finally, sent o.u.r a fleet under Sir
Geo. Asycue “to overpower the provincial royalsits,
and extinguish the last traces of monarchical au
thority that sal! lingered in the extremities of the
empire.” The commissioners “appointed to accom
pany this expedition” were empowered to try in
the first instance, the efficacy of pardons and other
conciliatory propositions, in reducing the colonists
to obedience ; but if their pacific overtures should
pros. mfti-Ttual, they were th*?n to employ every
species of hostile operation, 4c.
From llarbadoes, Sir Georg- Asycue despatched
Cap-. Dennis with a small siqadroo of shi|is to

«f Virginia ; for during the w hole proceeding she
struggle of Charles I. and the Parliament. the Vir
ginians were firm on the side of iheir K eg, and
enacted a declaration, “ that they wi re bun un
der a monarchy, and would never degenerate from
the condition of their births, by being subject to
any other government.” After the king was be
headed, they acknowledged the authority of the
fugitive Prince, and actually continued the Pro
vincial government under a commission, which he
sent to Sir William Berkeley, from his retreat at
Breda. The young Prince was not, however, ac
tually invited over to establish a lunt-dora in V.r
ginra: though, accord ins: to Clarendon, Sir Wm.
Berkeley was so assured of the loyalty of the in
habitants .and so impressed with confidence of
ultimate success, that b • wrote him “ ulmant
inriting him to America.” In these acts consisted
the enmity of Parliament to the Governor; and
for this open defiance of us power, Virginia was
to he ravaged by a fleet on her waters, and msidi
• m ‘*Tfflff**T* >n her s Historians differ greatly
at to the proceedings of Sir William,' after the
arrival of the fleet within the cape of Virginia ;
-everah as Rcvelral, as Beverly p. 15,1 Oldmiton
i. 375, Burke Eurojr-an Settlements, (,ii. 228,)
Graharne (i. 99,) have asserted that he made a
■treat show of resistenoe, assisted by the Dutch
slops in the harbor, and the Royalists, who were
tie majority of the-p puii.iun.
Bancroft, however, i. 22i) citing contemporary
authorities of the Ingest value, says, ‘‘no sooner
had the Guinea frigate anchored in the waters of
the Chesapeakivihan quoting from Clarendon all
thoughts of resistance were laid aside.” “ ft re
marks,” continues Bancroft; “ the character of
Virginians, that thry refused to surrender to force,
but yielded by a voluntary deed and a mutual
compact.” By the articles “W surrender a com
pete indemnity was stipulated for past offences;
and the h edonists, recognising the authority, were
admitted into the bosom if the English Common
wealth, and expressly ass ired of an equal partici
pation in all the privileges of the free people of En
laud. In particlar, it provided that the Provincial
Assembly snould retain its wonted functions, and
that ‘ the people of Virginia should have as free
trade a* the people of England, to all places and
with all nations’ and "shall be free from all
taxes, customs and impositions whatsuver, without
the consent of tneir own assembly.” Betkeley
disdained to make any stipulation for himself, with
those wnoin lus prmcip cs of loyalty taught him
to regard ns usurpers. Without leaving Virginia,
> he withdrew to a retired situation, where he con
tinued to reside as a private individual, univer
sally beloved and respected, till a new revolution
was to summon him once more to defy the repub
lican forces of England and restore the ascendancy
I of loyalty in the colony.
Tins was in March, 1651. And affairs contin
ed mui h in this state until KHVJ. In the mean
1 lime, Richard lien nett, Edward Digits, and Sam

to Dover Cromwell, am! on his death, in lobs, to

the usurpation of the Cromwells, and would not

then an exile.”
This, ’ says Beverly, “ was their dearest wish,
and then-fore, with an unanimous voice, they told
him that they were ready to hazard all for the
King” \ >w, this was actually before the K.ug's
return to England, an ! proceeded from a brave

He was received by the monarch with much

Crossing the Atlantic in a Kow-bont.
The first man who has accomplished this feet
arrived here this morning, having made the pas
sage from Liverpool in litile more than thirty days.
He- had no sail on board, but was protected from
the sun by a tarpaulin awning. On arrivin' at
quarantine, he exhibited no signs of fatigue or ex
haustion, and indeed declared himself beuer able to
undertake the voyage again, than when he had
been oni» two or thiee days out at sea. Probablv
the roan's story would be disbelieved, but that it
happens to be attested by Capt. H ivey. of the De
vonshire, and the officers and passengers of that
ship, who repeatedly saw bun and his small craft
during their passage. We believe three of our
pilot boats have crossed the Atlantic, at some
peril, but this man found his way to the land of
his hopes in a small Wat not laager Uiau sunn a

When the n Ule packe’ ship Devonshire was one

immediately had the stern Wat, hanging from the

moved the man intuit, erected over it a tarpaulin
house; and hi that boat tile man crossed the At

He was led from the captain's table, rec -vered
