taken from the last London Aheneum:
At the Greenwich dinner, three weeks ago, Mr..
Black read the following statistical paragraph re-
specting the seventh and eighth editions the En-
cyctopadia Britannica: Amount paid to cnntrihu-
tors and editors, 1870; cost If paper G52, ,503;
of printing aGd stereotyping $50 708;of engraving
and pate-prnting, Els 277: of binding, G22 6l3; of
advertising, ell ,0Sl; of miscrllsneous items g.
269; making a total cost of Elsa 42l. Of these two
editions of the Encyclopedia Britannica there have
been printed above 10000 copies. The amount of
duty paid upon the paper, calculated at 11%d., was
9S,573; but Sd. per pound was paid on a consdera-
BILE part of the seventh edition. These figures indi-
