inc discovery, ana we are reolced to learn that an
American is entitled to all the credit of it,
To the Editor ofthe Madisonian.
SIR
Under the head of &C Printing and Piracy-A New
Discovery" in your journal of this morning, you give
an article taken from the London Athenaum, an
nouncng recent discovery by Mr.. Hullmandel, Of
Berlin, called "Lithotntng by which fac-simile re-
prints of works of every description can be produced
of such exactness scarcely be distinguished from
the originals. Now, sir without desiring to detract
from the merits of Mr.. Hullmandel beg to claim
the honor of this singular discovery for one of our
own countrymen-an American--Mr. Joseph Dixon,
of Taunton Mass.
That you may be satisfied there is no mistake in
this matter enclose for your examination and that
of all persons curious in such matters specimens of
Mr.. Dixon's F." Transfer Process" he modestly
calls it; one of which you will perceive is fac
smile of page 2l2 .'Fabua Lokmani the other of a
page of Schaafs Syriac Lexicon, Leyden edition of
III To this latteris annexed fac-simile of
cate dated 3Oth Sept 1882 given by several of the
most distinguished gentlemen of Massachusetts, in
whose presence the transfer was made bear az testi-
mony to the surprising ingenuity and success of the
operation, te Importance OF the art III illustrates, ana
the distinguished merit of the gentleman who claims
the merit of the discovery" The signatures of sew
eral of the gentlemen to this certificate are well
known to many of your readers and the fac-smiles
of those of Edward Everett John Davis, and General
Dearborn attest the singular exacness of the process
by which the transfer is made
BY these specimens you will perceive that trans
fers from manuscript and printed matter made
by MIR, Dixon with equal facility and accuracy.
The secret by which the transfer is effected is
known, believe in this country, only to Mr.. Dixon.
He is enabled in the short space of FIVE six min
utes, to transfer to stone, page Of matter, from
which any number of impressions may be obtained.
The manuscript other paper from which the trans
fer is made however delicate, is uninjured by the
operation. rare work can be entirely transferred
without presenting, after the process, the slightest
trace of the operation it has undergone
need not apologize to you for this communca-
ton. You are an Amercan-the discovery is that Of
an Amercan-and feel satisfied you WILL with the
proofs have furnished, so announce it. y+e
| will only add, that | am unacquainted with Mr..
Dixon. The discovery became known to me about
two years SINCE through an officer Of the Army then
stationed at Boston, who took lively interest in the
matter, and who furnished the specimens now en-
closed to you.

AN INVITATION TO THE FAIR.

AN INVITATION TO THE FAIR.
Come, oh come, to the Ladies Fair,
The bright and beautiful are there;
Eyes of black and hazel hue,
Are joined with those Of heavenly blue;
Cheeks which make the rose leaves blush.
Lips where the humming bird would rush
To seek the honey-suckles' dew,
And deem their flavor ever new
Locks of auburn, brown, and jet
Have all in glorious conclave met,
To join the work of Love and Praise,
And Gods eternal Temple raise
From the slough of dark despond,
With help of an angelic wand,
Which leads to Hope, that fondly throws
A sunbeam light DER all our woes
That wand is held by Womans hand,
lis sweet, magnetic, truly grand
1t turns the path of earthly life
From all that leads to toll and strife
Fly, then, fond youth, fly quick from care,
And haste thee to the Ladies Fair.

EXPLANATION.


The last Hawkeye contained commu-
MICA ton from s. G. REED, Of Van Buren,
comfy, accusing me Of having done him
injustice in paragraph published few
weeks ago, headed ''eonsoling," which
feel called upon to notice in justice &c
myself, in connexion with an explanation
deemed to be due to him.
1t appears from Mr.. RS publication
that was in error in charging him with
deliaquency-which error Mr.. Reed can
easily account for by carefully examin-
ing the certificate Of Mr.. Scott which
forms part Of his publication. Mr S.
says:-,'Ido not recollecl uhether I told
Bradley ,cho Ireceiped tie money from -
did receive from Mr.. Bradley $40 from
Mr.. Scott, but was not informed by whom
it was paid; and hence the erroneous
statement in reference to Mr.. RS account.
disclaim the entertainment Of any but
kind feelings towards Mr.. Reed, and hope
he will see in this explanation desire
ON my part to do him justice.
