To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
For the past few weeks the entire newspaper
press OF the dity have been pouring their walls Of
wrath upon portion OF the denizens OF Washing
ton Market, claiming 1t TO be all At once an un-
healthy and pestent locality. especially the stands
and stalls that happen to project into the street.
and more particularly still those on West street,
which, IL is claimed, interfere with the passage
OF the cars on that street. and nave waited pa
tlently, but so far In vain, for somebody to come
to the defence Of those whom your correspondent
believes to have been unusty assailed. 1t has been
my fortune or misfortune, as the case may be, to
have occupied for the past three years an office In
one OF the stands in that pestilent locality known
West street sidewalk, where the business is almost
exclusively wholesale beef and mutton. and during
that time thanks to our efcient clerk, Mr. J.Kettle
man and his assistant, Mr.. Romatne), have never
known the market, and especially that portion Of
1t, so cleany as now. That the projection OF the
stands into the street Is an inconvenience 10 the
railroad company and to the public your CORE
spondent Will not deny but that 1t would make
any great difference in the healthfuiness OF the
locality is not generally believed. With the ex-
ceptlon OF perhaps small portion OF vesey and
Fulton streets / do not believe the removal of
these stands would benefit the market In sani-
tary point OF view.
Inc truth ls tue wnOle market ought to be wiped
out and a new one. worthy Of tine name, ought to
be built, and the market people did all that they
could last winter, while the Legislature was in
session for the accomplishment Of this object and
after having got the Dill through II vetoed by
the Governor; so we stand now just as we did be-
lore we began, and have, therefore, only TO wait
and try again.

GOOD THOUGHTS.

Christian graces, ike the stars, shine
the brightest in the darkest hour.
1t is only great souls that know how
much glory there is in being good.
Keep thy spirit pure from worldly
faint by the repellent strength OF virtue.
There is no substitute for thorough
going, ardent and sincere earnestness.
Prosperity is & bad nurse to virtue
nurse which is like to starve it in its
infancy.
The ruin of some men dates from some
idle hour. Occupation is an armor to
the hour.
A temporizing policy only makes a
schemer, while honesty and purpose
make a man.
Peace is the evening star Of the soul.
as virtue is its sun, and the two are never
far apart.
The essence of temptation is that we
forget the present and covet the future,
like Eve in Paradise
Believe nothing against another but
on good authority nor report what may
hurt another, unless it be greater hurt
to another to conceal it.
The christian life, in part. is one of
daily deDepdenea on fhe grace and
strength Of God.
The Manitowoc tribune. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1866-1878, 1873-07-24

The sea washed up its victims, their
hair spangled with the glttering ocean
sand and twined with clinging seaweed,
her arms still clasping his neck as when
they had fallen from the cliff
And her face was ineffably calm but
his was stamped with horror and dread
of an unsought death.

and English Newspapers
COMPARED.

A single copy of a New York paper
gives more news than will be found in a
weeks file of the London Times. At
the time of the English expedition to
Abyssinia, the London papers were in
debted to the courtesy of the Herald
correspondent for the latest and fullest
intelligence from the field and during
the Franco German war the most inter
esting and accurate accounts of the
grand achievements of the German armies
published in the English papers were
given in the dispatches to the Tribune,
but for which the English people would
have been compelled to await the ar
rival of letters by post for more than
the meager Geographic announcement
of victories which involved the fate of
an empire. The English have scarcely
begun to learn II use of the telegraph
for transmitting news. They affect a
contempt for the American system, and
plume themselves on the more SOL and
scholarly character of their news9apt !;
but, while this view may have bee nee
correct, an impartial conparsun of
American and English journals of the
present day would show that. in addi-
ton to an amount of news which would
supply London newspapers for week,
the leading articles, literary reviews,
and correspondence in every issue of
one of our frst-class papers are as
thoughtful and as carefully considered
as the articles which appear in the col
umns of the London Times.

Success of a Miners, Relief Fund.

Shortly after the Avondale disaster,
the workmen employed by the Wilkes
barre Coal and Iron Company held a
meeting and resolved to give one days
wages for the relief of the Avondale suf-
ferers and the establishment of a per-
manent benefit fund. The 9th of Sep
TENDER, 1869, was the day fixed upon,
and the sum realized was $4,000. Of
this 81, 600 were appropriated to the suf-
ferers by the Avondale horror. The
remainder was placed in the hands of the
Wilkesbarre Coal and Iron Company, to
be held in trust and at interest for their
workmen.
Trustees are elected in each di-
vision, who report all accidents to the
President of the Company. The money
for the benefit of persons accidentally
injured, or of their families in case of
death, is drawn on the order of the
trustee and foreman Of the division to
which the workmen belonged. No
workman is entitled to the benefits of
this fund until he has contributed one
days wages to its capital. The recent
Unpublished report of the management
of this fund shows that from Oct. 1.
1868, to Nov. l, 1872, 1876, 253. IS were
earned by the labor of the men and the
interest on the amount in the hands of
the Wilkesbarre Company SIS, $50. 81
were expended in the support of dis
abled workmen, the burial of dead work.
men, and the support of their widows
and orphans. The balance is $11, O92. "a.
This mode of dealing with impoverish-
ment resulting from the oft-recurring
mine disasters is very commendable, and
the balance in Mr.. Parish's hands shows
that the way of increasing the fund,
VIZ. by the wages of one days labor per
man every year, is very successful

A Wonder Of Literature.

In AppIeto,as' Journal for the 25th
of January we find the following descrip-
ton:
"The most extraordinary book ever
seeen on this side of the Atlantic is now
on exhibition at the store of Mr.. Bou-
ton, of this city. It is a copy of the
Bible, expanded by inlaying and il
lustration, to sixty imperial-folio vol
umes. This remarkable monument of
patience and zeal is the work of Mr..
James Gibbs, of London, who occupied
nearly forty years in collecting and ar
ranging the materials for it. The illus
trations, numbering some 10000 in all,
comprise numerous drawings by Raphael,
Caracci, and dozen others of the cele-
brated masters of the old time, and
some also by famous modern artists !;
engrayings and ct ,hings from the most
noted hands; early wood cuts and
Examinations or missal paintings, on
both paper and vellum, some of which
date as early as the beginning of the
fourteenth century. This wonderful
book is vast gallery of Christian art,
In which every master of the times is
worthily represented, and contains, be-
sides, some of the best works of modern
artists. The price of the work is
$4,000"
This most remarkable of all known
editions of the Bible was lately bought
by Theodore Irwin, ESQ.,, of this city,
who is becoming widely known as a
book fancier and collector. 1t is in sixty
enormous volumes and as much GU
riosity in appearance as in contents

What an Old Man Has Noticed.

1 have noticed that all men are honest
when well watched.
1haye noticed that purses will hold
pennies as well as pounds.
1 have noticed that merit is always
measured in this world by its success.
1 have noticed that in nearly all
things money is the main object in view.
have noticed that in order to be a
reasonable creature it is necessary at
times to be downright mad.
Ihave noticed that some men are so
honest that necessity compels them to
be dishonest in the end.
1 have noticed that silks, broadcloths
and jewels are often bought with other
peoples money.
1 have noticed that whatever is, is
right, with few exceptions the left
eye, the left leg, and the left side of a
plum pudding.
Ihave noticed that the prayer of every
selfish man is, Forgive us our debts"
while he makes everybody who owes
him pay to the utmost farthing.
have noticed that he who thinks
every man rogue is very certain to see
one when he shaves himself, and he
ought, in mercy to his neighbor to sur
render the rascal to justice.
have noticed that money is the FOOLS
wisdom, the knave's reputation, the
poor mans desire, the covetous mans
ambition, and the idol of all.
Ihave noticed shatall men speak well
of almen's virtues when they are dead,
and that tombstones are marked
with epitaphs of the good and
virtuous. Is there any particular ceme-

The First Newspaper.

Authorities have differed widely as to
the nation and city edtitled to the honor
OF having started the first printed news
paper. For many years it was supposed
that the credit belonged to England It
was claimed that the British Museum
had copy of the earliest paper in it's
collection. 1t was called the ElnqIish
Mercurie, and printed July %, 1858;
but it has been shown that this COPY.
like specimens of rare old coins, was
spurious, and gotten up for sale. Watts,
the photographer of the Musuem, who
saw, on examination, that the type and
paper were of modern origin and did not
belong to the sixteenth century, ex-
posed, the forgery It was an ingenious
fabrication, pretending to give the news
of the Spanish Armada, which was de-
stroyed in the English channel by Drake
and Howard day or two previous to
the date of the sheet. There were seven
numbers of this spurious Mercalrie pro-
duced-four in manuscript and three in
print.
Venice has claimed the honor of lead
ing the way in giving newspapers to the
world. The Gazetta, thus named be-
cause it sold for small piece of money
called gazzetta, it is asserted, was print
ed there in 1870, and it is pretended that
copies of this paper of that date are in
one or two collections in London. But
late discoveries have, apparently, estab-
ished the claim of the old city of NJ
remburg to this high honor. A paper
called the Gazette, according to trust
worthy authorities, was printed in that
city as early as 1457, five years after Pc
ter Schoffer cast the first metal type in
matrices. Nuremburg, with the first
paper in the fifteenth century, also claims
the honor of the first paper in the six
teenth century. There is an anciently
printed sheet in the Libri collection
which antedates all others except the
sheet of 1457 and the Chronicle of Co.
iogne. It is called the Neale Zeitu,tg
aus Hispa'aie,a aaad Italien, and bears
the date of February, 1884 The Brit
lsh Museum, it is said, has duplicate
of this sheet.
Thus to Germany belongs the honor
not only of the first printers and the
first printing, but also of the first print
ed newspaper. 1t has also another dis
tinction. In 1915, Egenolf Eurmel
started Die Fra'akfurter Oberpostompts
Zeitung, the first daily paper in the
world. This paper is still published;
and the city of Frankfort is to erect a
monument in houor of its founder and
editor, as the father of newspapers.

A Note of English Journalism,

London seems once more like itself.
Parliament is again in session, and Par
lament brings vast accession of life
to the West End, not to speak of it's in
f1uence on the morning newspapers :;
an influence so great that merely in
respect to space and the distribution of
topics they undergo complete trans
formation. Everybody who ever sees
an English journal is familiar with the
portentous aspect of their broad col
umns during the session, crammed, as
they are, with reports, in solid type, of
debates sometimes still more solid.
Perhaps the great provincial papers are
still more striking The leading organs
OF Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham,
Dublin, Glasgow and many another
great towns publish every morning much
fuller reports of Parliamentary doings
than the New York papers publish of
proceedings in Congress. Perhaps the
Scotsman, of Edinburgh, outdoes them
all. Like many others, it has long had
an office In London, and a special wire
for its own news from London to Edin-
burg. Ina ecentimpressioni it announces
that its Off es in London and Edin-
burgh have L.w been connected by a
second special, the two wires being nsed
exclusively for itself. The distance is
some 400 miles. 1t has also telegraph
wire from the houses of Parliament to
its London Office, exclusively for Parlia-
mentary reports. 1t has its own staff
of reporters in Parliament, relying no
longer on a news association report sup
piled in common to a great number of
journals. Practically, it can put Par
iamentary reports in type about as rap
idly as if they took place next door. All
this, it is true, is done very cheaply,
thanks to the care the press took to
secure its own Geographic interests when
the Government monopoly came into
operation. London Letter.
