The Soientfic American thus describes a monster stearn press, upod which Mosea S. Beach, who has just retired from the Now York Sun, is at work: Ho is even now just completing tho construetion of a monster steam printing press, by which the sheets are ent irorn rolls damponed, printcd upon both sides at the rate of forty thousand an lioui', (olded up, counted and delivered from tho machino ready lor the carrier and mail. This machine is as high as a common two story country dwelling house, and will, when tinished - if the expectationá of its inventor aro realizeil - constituye a most extraordinary specimen üf muohanicaü ekilï and ingenuity. jjr If any man thinka it a small matter, of mean concernment to bridle hia tonguo, he is much mistaken : for it is a point to be silent, when occasion requires ; and, better than to speak th ough nevereo well. Sg Obed Hussey, inventor ol tlio reapiDg machine and steam plow, full írom a train vvhile on his way fröm Boston to Portland, on Saturdny, ar.d was instantly killed.
