Editorial Manuscripts.
jrinters' Circular.

Speaking of the wild work made in
the setting up Of type from manuscript
copy, it is but proper to say that neither
the compositor nor proof reader are at
all times responsible for the errors
which occasionally appear in the
printed matter. The sort of copy
furnished by the late Horace Greeley
could not be ;" set up" by every printer,
and when new hand was called upon
to perform the trying task, some ridi-
culous blunder was certain to happen.
The. writer recalls a ludicrous error
perpetrated by green hand, who was
acting as a "sub'' for one of the
regulars" and passed by the proof
reader, which reused the Feasibility of
"lhe founder of the Tribune" to an
intense degree. The article had re-
ceived more than usual care and
thought from the great journalist, and
the subject was the exclusiveness of
the Japanese Government in dealing
with foreign commerce. In the course
of his article the writer declared that
the only forcible, the only effective al
guments with barbarians were those
uttered by the mouths of Paixhans.
His feelings may we'll be conceived
when, on reading the editorial next
morning, ne learned CnaL the only
effective arguments were those uttered
by the mouths of forty proud Parisians."
The language of Horace on that occa-
sion was more emphatic than classical.
A rather comicai change was that pro-
produced tn the meaning Of @ word by
the dropping out of a single letter.
The reporter who described the recep-
ton of General Scott, many years ago,
on his arrival in this city, intended to
say he was greeted by large and en-
thusiastic crowd" and was amazed to
find that the hero of Lundy's Lane was
greeted by a large and enthusiastic
crow" Of similar character was the
heading over a dispatch published in a
New York paper during the Mexican
War. which stated that the enemy
we've "routed with great laughter" Of
course the word should have been
slaughter, but the "s'' was missing, and
thus the meaning was wholly changed.
How much better would it be for the
whole world if all victories were as
bioediess as that implied in the changed
caption. and all individual and national
troubles had as pleasant o termination

INGENIOUS INvENTIoNs.-A Capuchin
friar in Turin has constructed a large
and complicated work of mechanism by
which the passion and sufferings of the
Saviour, from His condemnation before
Herod to His death on the cross, are
marvelously represented. On con-
stantly receding platform the figures
appear and the scenes. Not only are
the movements Of the automatic life
like. but the figures and scenery are
masterpieces of art. The crowd clam
oring for His death is represented by a
very numerous group of figures, which
are wonderfully distinct in action and
appearance. The falling beneath the
weight of the cross ON the way to Cal
vary is painfully graphic. To render
quite audible the flashing of the soldiers
is one OF the functions of the machinery.
The scenes at the place of execution and
the death of the Saviour are said to be
beyond praise, and writer ID 8 Turin
paper declares that the extraordinary
mechanism has but one imperfection--
the capacity of making the figures ar
ticqlate intelligibly. This imperfection
is chiefly evident when the words are
exchanged between the Redcemer and
the penitent thief. Fhe sounds emitted
from the figures are in this instance
ludicrous; but the friar hopes to remedy
this defect, and his mechanism Will, in
all likelihood, be an object Of wonder at
the Paris exhibition.

An English paper says: Good strong
blown glass tumblers are being delivered
into English ports from America for sd,
per dozen and good hexagonal and oc-
tagonal cut Dutch tumblers for Is. Sd.
per dozen. The above fact relating to
Importation from the United States,
whence but recently nothing of the kind
was exported, is illustrative of the keen
competition in manufactures generally,
and in particular shows the necessity
for the abolition of the English glass
blowers practice of working but four
days per week, a practice maintained
by the glass blowers guild, and one
which prevents the continuous opera
ton of the costly furnaces and plant
in glass works.
