JOB PRINTING

A FAST PRIYTER.-One gentleman put up in
one hour and forty-four minutes, 5000 ems,
which is considered in this latitude pretty tall
e-setting.-Ndsh0iILe Gazette Of Saturday.
The greatest speed at composition Of which
we recollect of seeing Oh record, was accom-
plished by Jas. Anderson, who is said to have
put ia type an average of 1900 ems per hour
for three hours. The fastest type-settng by a
Nashville compositor was done by John Watt
Smith, who set $4,000 ems in twelve hours.
Possibly greater speed has been achieved and
passed unrecorded or escaped our notice, but
the fast men of the craft may now all hang
their diminished heads when they read Of the
feat of the nameless gentleman at the Gazette
Office, who, If the above extract tells truly,
must have set type at the rate Of 1850 ems
per hour. Strange that with such compostors
the Gazette should have been beaten twenty
minutes by the Patriot in getting out tie

COLLATION. AT fundamentally Friday
last the "Patriot force" employed on the Pres
idents Message, and number Of invited
guests partook of an elegant and bountiful col
lation, in accordance with q time-honored Gus
tom, as well as to indulge in little pardon
able self-congratulation at outstripping by far,
all competition in getting out that document.
The table literally groaned under the load of
vivands and delicacies, which the provident
hand of our fat friend had prep red, and it is
scarcely necessary to say that those who sur,
rounded the "festive board" did ample justice
to the good things before them. Tie occasion
was replete with happy incident, exuberant
spirit and good feeling, and the company sep
arated at late hour in the happest humor.
The thanks of the Patriot attaches individu-
ally aud collectively are rendered to mine
host Riddleberger, for the superior manner in
which he catered to their wants and tastes.
A finer spread table than that set for them
we have seldom behed.
