the Letter writer think the people of Kent are So

puilt was p&ruoneu. She was LETT with a mere
subsistence, prey to disappointment Tor she con-
tinued to the last to sigh for that spendor she had
seen displayed by the chief astrologcrs wife at the
Hermann, thereby affording salutary lesson 10
those who admit envy into their bosoms, and en-.
deavor to attain their ends by unreasonable and
unjustifaGle means.
I'riumpts Of .frt-G Great improvements in prin-
ting,-it is announced in the Times that that pa
per is now printing with an improved machine, the
invention Of Mr.. Charles AppIegath, which takes
off The astonishing number Of four thousand copies
an hour, or seventy copies in minute. ms
speed is twpnty times greater than could have been
attained with the kind of press in use dozen
years ago for with that press paper the size OF
the Times could not have been worked. on one
side only at the rate OF more than four hundred
impressions in an hour,-that is, two hundred an
hour on both sides.
1t would be curious TO make computation of
the increased power given to man BY the press Tor
The circulation of knowledge; and though this
cannot be done with accuracy. we may form some
idea of it from calculating the saving OF human la.
Dor produced by printing the 1im's, instead Of
uriting out the copies by an amanuensis. 10
write out the contents OF one ot its numbers with
the pen would occupy an ananuensls SIX days :
the extent of its circulation is, believe. between
5000 and 5000 copies; taking 1t, therefore at the
Iowar number, it would require $4,000 persons to
write out in one day all the copies of that journal
published daily. But this is very defective view
Of the case have vet no allowance for the
great power OF compression and the vast utility of
that power, which the art of printing affords The
paper requisite for an amanuensis to write ont in
an ordinary hand the contents OF that newspaper,
would cost twelve times as much as the paper that
is used for printing it the great bulk Of this pa
per would make it very announcement to read, and
almost impossible to circulate the journal. The
Importance Of compression tien is obvious, and if,
for the sake of it. the amanuenss should be oblig-
ed to compress his writing into the same space as
the printing, surprising this possible, it would take
lat least four times long to perform his task
10 write out in this way the Times newspapers
would, therefore, occupy 10000 scrbes But
the press which works off this newspaper is moved
by steam, and completes the impression in two
hours: If it were necessary, the same press might
be going "a hours in which time it would do the
work Of too million two hundred and fur thou
sand scribes !!!!-Yet all the manual operations
which produce this result are performed by about
tlco dozen hands. Such are the advantages we
owe to mechanical art, that one man can do in the
present day what, four centuries ago would have
required one hundred thousand.
