' " On the following morning our tour of observation was resumed by Calling, in I Company with, four yankees, on Dr. I Church j a native of Massachusetts, for the purpose of examining his celebraled Pnnling Machine. He politely invited us into his s.udy, the tables and 'snelves 1 of which were' loaded wilh'diagrams and scientific publications. In a few minutes ( we were invited i to acompany him to the building, where his invention is in the full. tide oj successful experiment.,, Alter several years, of severe study and labour, he has fully succeeded in his plans, the practical utility of which is reduced to demonstration. Mr. rer kins, of London, remarked to me. at it is the moke perfect machine he ' ha as ever, seen ; and tew men have had a wider experience in' mechanics, or are better qualified to judge.

It reach es out its iron hand, grasps the edge of the sheet, draws it under the form. where it receives the impression, re turns it to, the top of the machine and there deposits it ih regular files. All this is done in an instant, without the least noise or confusion. Between two and three thousand shaets are struck off in an hour, the paper being drawn alternately from each side, and the form being almost constantly employed i n t, producing t an impression, l it feeds itself, with ink by means pt rollers communicating wan a trough!

In 1817, his wife, hot receiving any intelligence from him and supposing him to be dead applied to the tribunal for permission to marry again. This was granted to her, and she mar ried M r. B . But the honey moon was scarcely over, when the long lost baker; J -, re-appeared. Ho wever,in stead of finding fault with what his wife had done, he approved it, and obtained her consent that he himself should take another wife. This he obtained and lived very happily with his, second wife until the month of June, 1825, when she died in giving birth to a seventh- child, v Fif teen dayi after, Mr. B , the husband of J - p's first wife, thought proper to bid adieti to this world, and ou the 26th of last Decembe r.

In the great cities of Europe, buildings of this des cription have for many years been known as the principal i and most . convenient places for retail fancv buisness, and the most ; "TashiohabTe promenades Tor beau monde. They are in fact to the the ladies what the Exchanges are to the merchants. In Paris they are numerous, being there known under- the denomina tion j of " Les Passages.3' In London there are a number of great beahty and extent, and the Royal Arcade of Dublin stands among the most conspicuous orna ments of that truly elegant city'C The one about, to be erected in this -City, although designed not to be so extensive as many, will not be inferior to either fn architectural beauty orr convenience. The', difficulty . of obtaining a cite Of sufficient extent; and in an appropriate situation has been very great, but has at last been accomplished by the enterprize of the principal ' proprietor, ' who we understand was the originator also of the Philadelphia Arcade. 1 The spot obtained we consider in eVery respect the most eligible of 'any in the city. It is 120 feet from Broad way, fronting nearly 60 feet on the north side of Maiden lane, and running parallel to Broadway, from thence to John street, a distance of 160 feet. The tront which was designed by Mr: Hay i land, isi considered a very beautiful specimen of the art. It is of the Grecian style or order.; and is to be of the best kind of white marble that . our country affords. Three arches, embracing nearly the whole front, supporting a rich ornamented cornice; 'pediment and balustrade, will open into a semi-circular vestibule, which will be handsomely nagged; with free stone, and from me centre orwhich a passage of 14 feet in widtn win ' pass through, the r whole building, having on each side 10 stores in all 40, of uniform size and construction. From the sides of the vestibule." stone ''stairways; will lead to the second story, which wtlt recede from the first, leaving a splendid gallery or balcony around the whole .building, being a distance of 350 feet." Over the whole passage, will be thrown a sky-light, so constructed as to protect it from -the inclemency of the weather in winter and the burning rays of the sun Jn : sum mer. y t he shops on the lower story are intended foK retail fancy goods, and those of the 2d stohKfor milliners, &c. thus bringing into a small compass every variety that it is now possible to find from one extreme of the fcitv to the other in a, situation free from dust, and thle usual obstruction and nots&f ou r imsljhfu ori ! yiii De splendidly JightetTwith gasV The beauty of the persjiei ve,v the Richness and variety of th goods ; displayed-iand the neatness of the whole, will, - we are satisfied, f render "the' Arcadie !? the. f most agreeable,' and the most fashbnable or our promenades, and the most - desirable situation for : fancy ' merchants j and w have! no doubt the enterprising proprie tors will be well rewarded; , N. r.
