On the History of Printing,

The firs,l attempts at printing with
types can be traced to engravings on
blocks OF wood, the honor of the invention
being claimed by citizens of three differ.
emf cities Harlem, in Holland, Stras-
burg and Mentz, in Germany, Laurentius
Costor, John Gutenberg, and John Faust,
each claiming TO be inventors of the art.
But the reliable information appears to
side with GUTENBERG, who, as early as
1442. printed two small books in the
city Of Mentz. It is remarkable that the
first book printed. Of any note was the
Bible. II was printed in Latin, in 1850.
Notwithstanding the improvements which
had been made the art cannot be consid.
cred as very permanently settled. until
the year 1856, when method Of casting
TYPES in mould was discovered. The
! Art was first introduced into England in
