before whose time the oyster trade, IN France,

NEWSPAPER ANTIQUITIES.

The first newspaper ever published IN the
British colonies, which are now The United
States, was "The Boston News Letter, from
Monday, April II, % Monday, April "a, 1904"
II was published by John Campbell, bookseller
who styled himself "postmasler of New Eng
land, at Boston," This Iooksas il Boston was
then the only post office in New Eng but
il is probable that there were Two or three
more, although We cannot ascertain that there
was any regular mail in the. country at that
time. The paper was printed in "Pudding
Lane" l he first number contained only one
advertisement, which was the publishers own
work. 1t was printed on half o sheet OF pot
paper, with small plea type, folio. Some of
the succeeding numbers contained number OF
advertisements Of two, three or four lines each,
filling up part OF The iasl column al the end
OF the paper. Such as-"Goods for sale, by
A---W-, at No 2, Newbury street'-"Five
shiIIings will be paid by il, near the Post
Office, TO any, one tina, will return his appren-
tice, E-B-, runaway"-"P-W-has fresh
goods for sale at his shop near The market, &c.
sc. The News Letter published for the week
from May %, to May 20, l7lo, printed on
an open sheet about one third part as large
as this paper, contains but one advertise
meni, which is in the following words:-
Negro Women, one
aged about IS, and the other 30 years old, 10
be sold by Mr., VIM. Clark, junior, merchant,
to be seen at his house in Common street, Bos-
ton." 1t is interesting 10 learn, in this land
and time OF freedom, that the first and only
newspaper printed in New England, lls years
ago, contained solitary advertisement, Offer
ing two human beings for sale!
The above facts are taken partly from Tho.
mass History of Printing, and partly from
other sources. Ii would be but the graiifca-
ton Of natural and laudable curiosity for
some Of the Boston Editors Of this day, 10
search out and ascertain the exact site of the
original News Letter Office in Pudding Lane.

be glad to see description of the "loeal habi
