TIE points NV used in punctuation were
introduced into writing gradually, soue time
after the invention OF printing. The Greeks
had none, aud there was no space between
theig words. The Romans put a kind OF d.
vision between their words, thus--Publicus,
Ssipio, Africsnus. Up to the end OF the f.
teentn century only the period, colon, and
Comma had been introduced. The latter
came into use latest. and was only a per-
pendicular figure or line proportionate to the
size of the letter. To Aldus Manutius, 40
eminent printer, in 1870, we are indebted tor
the semicolon, and also for the present form
of the comma. lie also laid down rules now
observed, in regard TO their use. The notes
Of interrogation and exclamation were not
added ill some years later, and it ~ not
known 10y whom. Inverted commas (") were
first used by Monsieur Aillemount, a printer.
and were intended hy him t. supersede the
use of Hdiic letters, and the French printers
call them BY that name. But they have late
ly been used by the English printers to de-
note quoted matter. 10 a London hook, The
Art OF English Poetry, printed III 1907, 1t sp-
pears tha, the present mode of denuting quo
ted matter is therein denoted 10y being set in
Ltdlic. 1t is not known by whom the apos-
tropbe and dash we're invented.--Ihe Printer.

DANGER OF USING LETTER ENVELOPES.
A correspondent of the Boston Advertiser
mentions the following instance as showing
that the IN dern convenience Of envelopes
requires to be used With ~csutiou:
'Many years ago the mails to and from
England we're conveyed by briggs in pay of
the British Government, which touched on
their passages at H-l,fax and Bermuda; and
during this arrat gemeut a party on this side
RENTED, with his own endorsement, a bill
OF exchange 10 bis c1D-ignOr IN England,
which wss protested for uon.acceptance or
nOr-payment, | forget VII CD. When pay
ment was demanded here the end User reius-
ed. on the grouud OF wautof seasonal ole notice
among other reasons; aud though all ut then,
except that objection, were finally Abandoned.
the plsintItf'- case bore an unpromising
aspect. ipasmuch a. the notice of protest did
not reach this country for some sixty days
or more after the !act, whereas the New YORK
packets had brought later da'es by at least
thirty days. But the plalotltf's coun.e! took
the letter enclosing The protest into the post
Office. where. by the post mark. 1t was iden-
tilted as having cum by the aforesaid regu-
lar mail route, which fact OF course settled
the business in favor of the plaintiff. Had an
envelope beeo used it might have been dit
fcult, il no, impossible, for any body to haze
made oath that the cover 90 marked bad cen
tanned the protest. il indeed the envelope had
been preserved, which is not probable. But
there was no doubt 10 regard TO the contents
of the letter.

WHO ARE THE MISERABLE.

This sign tissnt question (says q pithy
writer in the Boston Courier) bias appeared
recently in sundry newspapers, at the begin
ming OF az advertisement, intended TO attract
notice to a medicine for the cure Of~dy-prrsia,
az if that were the greatest malady that fiji cts
humanity, and as il the victims of it bad
the highest claims 10 the sympathy and skill
of the physician. Dyspepsia seems 70 be a
general name for all diseases tina arc caused
BY idleness and luxurious living. 1t pre-.
sumes that Dives, the rich man 10 the Gospel,
died of The dyspepsia, while the heggar that
was fed With the crumbs from Eis tstle no
DOUBT died Of starvation. We never heard Of
the common day-lsbOrers. that live digging
drains and bitches, or the farmers that do
their own ploughing and hoeing, reaping aud
sowing, choppiig aud moving; We say, we
seldom, or never, bear OF such persons sut-
ferirg from dyspe psia. Turtle soup, roasted
ducks, and scalloped oysters. with coplOos
draugbts of champagne AMI madeira, pud-
ding and pastry. followed by strong coffee,
maraschino, and cigars at a shilling apiece,
are more likely to provoke al attack from
the devil dyspepsii, than corned beef and pc
tatoes, with a mess Of dandelioDs Or string
beans in their season.
