A. CHAPTER ON ENGRAVING

Some writers are fond of carrying the orig:n of engraving
to a very high antiquity, by quoting as examples of the
practice of the art such carvings in wood or metal, or stone,
as have been found in various degrees of excellence among
almost all nations,—among our own Saxon and even British
ancestors, as well as among the Egyptians, Greeks, and
Romans. But this is to confound two things which are
entirely distinct. Such works as those alluded to are spe-
cimens of sculpture, not of what we now call engraving.
The modern art known by that name applies to the produc-
tion of a print, or rather of a number of prints, from a design
cut in wood and metal. The mere cutting out both of letters
and of figures in a hard substance has been practised from
the earliest ages ; the art of obtaining letters and figures so

cut out from Copies or impressions by means of a colouring
matter spread over them, and thence transferred to some
other substance, is, in Europe at least, altogether a modern
invention. The ancients were, indeed, accustomed to pro-
duce impressions by means of stamps in a variety of cases ;
they struck coins, they made seals in wax, they even marked
the weight and quality of their loaves of bread with a stamp.
On the other hand, they applied a colored liquid to make
marks, both in their painting, with a brush or pencil, and
in writing, with a reed or other species of pen. What they
did not do was just to use the two methods at once,—to
take the impression from the stamp, not by making it enter
into the substance of the material on which it was pressed,
but only by making it communicate to that material a fluid
colour. The principal cause undoubtedly which prevented
the ancients, after advancing "so far as they did, from dis-
covering the art of printing, was the want of any general

„.
demand' for books. A high price, it is true, was paid foi
books, and must have been paid, by the few who did buy
them; the labour necessary for the copying of a manuscript
was great, and a book therefore could not be obtained for a
small sum. If there be an article

DUKE and UNCOLOURED GREEN TEA.—In.
order to comply with the wishes of our numerous patrons, we have
imported, direct from China, GREEN TEA in its pure and uncoloured state.
The ingredients used by the Chinese in colouring their teas have been found,
after analysis by some of oar most eminent chemists, to be very pernicious
and hurtful to the health. We are, therefore, in addition to our usual teas,
prepared to supply the public with the uncoloured teas at prices varying
from 3s. Bd. to ss. per Ib.—IIORNE, ROBINS, & CO., (late Mansell, Horns,

La Morgue stands near to the water's edge. On the east,
the lofty towers of the cathedral of Notre Dame look down
upon this half-way house to the rave;g on the north, the
narrow and filthy streets of the city pour forth their squalid
populations, while towards the cast, the spectator can just
obtain a glimpse of the palace of the Tuileries. On that
side of the Morgue which is furthest from the river is an
open space covered with the stalls of many a marchand des
quatre saisons. This dismal building is divided into two
portions, one occupied by the private apartments of the
keeper of this abode of death, and the other open to the
public. On two sides of the latter are seen iron bars,
enclosing two spaces, in which are placed slanting boards
something like the guard-room bed of the English soldier,
and on these, deprived of every covering excepting such as
mere decency requires, lie the bodies of persons found
dead. Age and infancy, youth and sturdy manhood, the
young and delicate female form by the side of that of the
grey and aged crone, all alike levelled by death. A small
stream of water is constantly falling over these remains of
mortality, to keep the surface of the skin moist. Behind
each corpse, the clothes of the deceased are suspended

The remains of the unfortunate creatures themselves after
remaining a certain time, are either burned or delivered
over to the authorities of the hospital, the latter is their
usual fate. One reason why the relatives of the poorer
classes arc so frequently unowned, is the large fee of sixty
frances paid to the city chest to reclaim them. The causes

Of the death of thosC that are brought to this Parisian
bonehouse are necessarily various.

shall be glad again to hear from him, as we respect his mo-

He must say that, from our space, our extracts even from
the very best standard works must be necessarily few.
W. B. (BRENTwoon).—The anecdote is a genuine one. It is
recorded of Sam Foote, before he attained his high position
in the profession. He was employed by a comic author to
take off the person, the manner, and the singularly awkward
delivery of the celebrated Dr. Woodward, who was intended
to be introduced on the stage in a laughable character. The
mimic dressed himself as a conutryman, and waited on the
doctor with a long catalogue of ailments, which he said
afflicted his wife. The physician heard with amazement
diseases and pains of the most opposite nature, repeated and
redoubled on the wretched patient. At length, being become
completely master of his errand, Foot -

'e dreo from his p-1-1;

THE UNFINISHED STREET

Before we talk of " The Unfinished Street" it is necessary that
every one should distinctly understand what is meant by " The Un-
finished Street," or it would have been much better if " The
Unfinished Sireet" had never, never, been begun. We have no-
thing to do with those long rows of uniform three-storied, and
shortly to be " desirable tenements" where thick-limbed Irishmen
run up and down tall ladders, and the hammer thunders, and the
trowel rings from six in the morning till six at night. There the
builder is, with heavy penalties, bound down to complete his worl
by a certain day ; and the stacks of yellow bricks and the mound!
of grey mortar that half block up the road show that the capital;
has faith in his speculation, and looks upon the property as a th'
to leave to his children. The Roman cement festoons on the pit'
house at the one end, and decorations of the baker's shop
other, are brown and wet; whilst one half of the huge v,
crowns the middle house f ;err

demand for houses wherein the new corners may dwell. But E
a country town—one which, if inland, has, perhaps, had th
luck to lie out of the beaten track of the locomotive—whose gl
departed with the days of four•horse coaches and postboys,
which is fast falling out of the recollection of all men, except
sions' barristers and commercial travellers. Or take a new si
rate watering-place, at length surpassed in public favour b 3
younger rival, or robbed of its season attractions by the pros
of a popular preacher, or the death or retirement of a still
popular physician. Such towns as these now possess the
specimens of " The Unfinished Street." There you will see i,ireu
