In using Horse power but one horse is required, the Press being so mechanically constructed on a well-known principle that the power increases in a greater ratio than the increasing resistance. The advantages of this Press ever all others are as follows, via; Ist. It can press 20 per cent, more material in a giver space. 2d. It can do the work in 33 per centlese time. 3d It requires 60 per cent less driving power. 4th- It turns out the best shaped bale for hand ling br rolling. sth. The Fress will last a life-time, Ihe work ing parts being built of the best of iron, and not liable to get out of order. The ordinary work of this machine will press in cne operation (after once filling the box of the No. 1 Press) a bale of Hay of 466 lbs. weight in 82r*Two Minutes. Four men and one horse can bale 12 tons of Hay a day.

Hatch, his approbation oi their good conduct during the operations on the line of the Charles ton and Savannah Railroad, since November IHBw : At the battle of Honey Hill on November goth, although unsuccessful in the attempt to drive the ecemv from his forts, the Division still maintain ed the fight with unwavering steadiness durinir the day, and retired from the field after night&B m good order and unpursued. Their losses attest alike their courage and discipline. At Dveeaux’ Neck, near the Coosawhatchie tunipike, on December 6th, the advance, in num ber much iuferioi to the opposing force, met the rebels in an open field, and drove them from the ground, captured one flag, forced them to seek safety in flight, leaving their dead and wounded in our hands, and thus occupied a position from which the Railroad was under the easy fire of our gtuia. * * On December 3th the skirmish line forced its way to within a few yards of the Railroad and the forts which guarded it, ’ remaining there under a most galling fire until an opening had been cut through the woods between our bat teries and tho road, and thus perfected the work so gallantly begun upon the 6th. The Division has obeyed all orders promptly and cheerfully, and since its co-operative move raenttwitb General fchermau’s Armv, has vig ilantly watched the enemy at .its'front, has . promptly seized each fortified position upon .the first indication of a proposed withdrawal on the part.of the rebels, and has thus inspired the ! Commanding General with the belief that it will continue to do faithfully and well the work allot ted to it in the great campaign which is being prosecuted in South Carolina. ” . ’ To Brigadier Generals Hatch aud Potter, who have commanded this force, and to all the gallant offioers and men under them, the Major General Commanding tenders his thanks for the past, and his earnest wishes for their continued suc cess, J.
