SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union alleges that the Intelligencer, through its Republican friends in Congress, by factions and uncompromising effort defeated the Post office appropriation bill, and" suggests that it ill becomes that paper and the party ©o-operating with it, to complain of the proba- ble increase of expenses that they have caused, and of the President for not calling Congress together to remedy the difficulty. The Intelligencer,alluding to the action of the late Democratic meeting in Chesterfield, Va., in disearding the ‘‘ Northern”’ doctrine of ro- tation in office, merely for the sake of rotation, agrees that the doctrine is a“ pestilential dog- ma of political proseription.”’ but contends that it has heretofore received its chief countenance and support from illustrious leaders and exem- plars of the Demoeratic party, and that instead of being peculiar to the North, it can be traced back to Jeffersonian origin. woe THE WEEKLY STAR.

Trvus Prooress.—We learn that the right to control and use Salisbury’s brick, tile and drain making machine (the invention, wwe a length in the Scar of Tuesday th trict, has been disposed of to three eitizen® of Washington city, . os more DF cen will be in fall operation in oa midst. We are glad of the fact, sincerely believing that it-ts destined to effect changes in current methods and modes of build- ing, tiling. sewage, agricultural land draining, &e., of great value to the future of society. Since our late notice of it, we have carefully inspected more of its working and results, and can state positively, from our own experiments, that the beautiful and finished work it turns out is from the slightly moist clay, just as taken up from the earth, without being subjected to any ‘tempering’ whatever. We are persuaded further, from the solidity, faultlessness, and polish of the bricks as coming from its dies, that, for the inside of walls, they can hardly fail to answer unburned, as well as other brick burned. They are molded with grooves, in which a slight portion of cement may be run or placed, which will give the mass a tension throughout all its parts quite equal to that of brick walls laid in mortar. The surfaces of the unburned bricks made by Salisbury’s machine are so smooth that by ap- plying & varnish with a brush a face is given to them (the unburned bricks) thus laid, equal to that of painted plastered walls. Thatis, without any lathing or plastering whatever. As a mat- ter of course, without the intervention even of a coat of varnish, such unburned brick surfaecs aro admirable for papering, the pressure with which the bricks are moulded making their surfaces harder after a few daysair drying, than the hardest plastering. How much the use of unburned bricks of such capabilities is destined in time to save to those building, we cannot estimate; but all who have had occasion to pay for building are aware that it must amount toa heavy per centage. We believe, too, that the use of this machine will not long hence cause adobe buildings to be well nigh as common in North, as in South America. That is, for cheap houses. If the unburned bricks of South America, exposed directly to the action of the elements there, will withstand them for centuries, by resorting to the shelter- roof of that quarter of the globe, they will do so here, notwithstanding the difference of eli- mate. Such frosts as are common here would soon destroy the softer (more penetrable) adobe bricks of Chili, for instanee. But those made with this machine are so hard as that one must examine them critically after they are air dried, to comprehend that they have really not been burned. The fact is known chiefly through the high polish upon them—iteelf a great pre- ventitive of the action of frost upon them The South American roofs referred to above— the adobe houses being chiefly of a single story —extending out (the eaves) some feet from the walls, are great preventitives of the action of beating rains, it will be remembered. But wo confess that our chief interest in this machine, is in what is probably destined to be its ultimate effect on the agriculture of the country. From experimonts we have made ourself with it, we firmly believe that by the use of smal! machines made on Mr. Salisbury’s patent, pequiring the power of but two horses to drive them, two inch land draining pipes ean be made better than any other such pipe to be made in any other way, to cost—burned—at most, not more than half a cent per foot, or $25 per mile, ineluding every conceivable ox- pense ; and that the farmer and his hands can manage it as well as they manage the reaper or the wheat drill. We have a firm belief that putting it in the power of most farmers to produce their own drain tile at their own time, for half a cent per running fvot, will be promptly followed by the invention, somewhere, of a plow or other dig- ger, which in running three or four times along a ditch, say a foot wide, will loosen the soil tu the depth of two or two and 4 half feet Nay, a plow to that end. is already in use at the North, though not having seen it, or drawings of it. we know not how fur it auswers the pur- pose. With that plow, band labor is required to throw the loosened earth out of the ditches. and then to shovel it back again after tile or other drains may be luid in it Now. why cannot some one skilled in the inventive art get up » machine which will } follow the drain plow. and relieve the ditch of the loosened earth as fust as the former | travels —say, a machine upon the inclined plane of the wnould board of which, the loosened exrth | will be worked up, perhaps a foot high. until falling upon or into something attached to an endless belt, it may be carried up to a point from two to four feet above the earth's surface, ard there emptied upon the apex of inclined surfuees which will distribute it on the sides of | the ditches as though laid there with the shovel are | —ready to be seouped back into the diteh bya simple iron shovel seraper with a proper mould board, drawn by a single horse working on one side of it, as the horses of all machine reapers work? Though no inventor, we believe in tho entire feasibility of such a combination of im- plements as we attempt to describe above, which will reduce the cost of underdraini any land where stones or rock are not encoun- tered, to a maximum of $50 per wile for under- drains so laid, that will last throughout time. If so, the nett profits of the cultivation of every aere of lund so drained will at least be doubled at an average cost of perhaps not more than one dollar per acre; a3 an acre of well-drained land. upland as well as low land, may generally Le relied on to average double the nett profits of the cultivation of an undrained acre laying next it. with equal expenditure for fertilisation and culture.

New York city. ——o— Tug Ccrrext Fiites.—There ean be no doubt that this city is again suffering under the infliction of the presence of a gang of in- cendiaries, great or small—aufficient in num- ber, however, to be destroying almost nightly thousands of dollars worth of property of our fellow-citizens, and endangering life. Though the tax-payers of the Federal Metropolis have been mulcted in the cost of supporting the extra police, they thus obtain no greater insurance against such an evil than existed before its employment; and, so far as the public ean dis- cover, there has been no movement whatever in the Mayor's Office to lead to the hope that the villains will be ferreted out and dealt with according to law. The ease of this community, in this matter, is a hard one. We see no other remedy for it than volunteer association to secure proper re- wards to the discoverers and convictors of the incendiaries. The failure of the Corporation to pay to Officer Kimball the offered reward in a similar caso, fairly earned by him, has had 8 bad effect on the county police not sala- tied by the Corporation. They effected the arrest and punishment of some incendiaries in years gone by. The inducement was a law upon the city records offering a reward for their detection and conviction, Recently, as we have remarked, the failure of the Corpora- tion, or the refusal to pay the reward, has caused those officers to cease to be active in such cases. The Kimball case bas on several oveasions been the subject of discussion in the Council for years, and though generally re- garded as being so cloar that the officer could nd that in a month on@ or4, not fail to get the reward, he has not yet re- | Ixpraw DisToRBaNcEs APPREHENDED.—The Jas- ceived it.
