Printing in China.-The Invention
of the Art a Thousand Years
Ago.
Nature. I

Nature.
In an article on printing in China, the
North China Herald that says. the first
great promoter of the art of printing
was Feng Wing, who 932 A. ID. advised
the emperor to have Confucian classics
printed with wooden blocks engraved
for the purpose. The first books were
printed in regular manner, and in
pursuance of a decree in 953. The mar
liners compass and rockets were invented
about the same time. showing that at
| this period mems minds were stirred to-
ward invention. Twenty years after
the edict, the books of the classics were
pronounced ready, and were placed on
sale. Large-sized editions, which were
the only ones printed at first, were soon
succeeded by pocket editions. The
works printed under the Lung Emperors
at Hangchow were celebrated for their
beauty; those of western China came
next, and those ofFokhein last. Movable
types OF copper and lead were tried
about the same time, but it was thought
mistakes were morenumerous with them
and therefore the fixed blocks were pre-
pared Paper made from cotton was
tfhN ~ was 4ohilAl ~ .GAiltIlS1ft
that the bamboopaper held its ground.
In the Sung dynasty, the method was
also tried Of engraving on soft clay, and
afterward hardening by baking. The
separate characters were not thicker
than ordinary copper coins. Each of
them in fact was a seal. An iron plate
was prepared with facing of turpentine,
wax, the ashes of burnt paper. Over
this was placed an iron frame, in which
the clay types were set in until full. |
The whole was then sufficiently heated to |
meltthe wax facing. aniFon plate was the |
placed above the types. making il per-
iectly level, the wax being just soft en- |
ough To allow it 10 sink into il to the /
proper depth. This being done, it |
would be possible to print severed hum
bred or thousand copies with great ra-
pidity. Two forms prepared in this way
were ready Tor the pressman's use, so
that when hehad done with one he would
proceed viii another without DELAY.
Here Is undoubtedly the principle of the
of Europe, although wes-
tern printers can dispense with a soft
wax bed for types, and can obtain
level surface without this device. Per-
haps the need of capital to Law in
stock of types, the want of good type
meterial easily cut and sufficiently
hard, and the superior beauty of the
Chinese characters when carved in wood.
have prevented the wide employment Of
he movable types which are so con-
'enient for all alphabetic writing. The
inventor of this mode of printing in
movable types, five centuries before thev
we're invented in Europe, was named
d Sheng.

W. w. Dudley, the commissioner OF
pensions, Is a Nermonter. lie was
born August p, 1912, at Weathers-
field, Vermont. His father was a
graduate of Yale, and COngrega-
tional clergyman. In 1850 Col. Dud-
lev went to Richmond, Indiana, and
engaged with his uncle in the milling
business. He enlisted as a private
soldier, July ), 1861, in the 18th
Indiana regiment, and was unan-
imOuslY elected Captain of Company
3. 1t was sent to the army of the
Potomac and he was in ell the PotO-
mac battles, skirmishes and engage
ments of all kinds, except the battle
of Fredericksburg, down to the battle
of Gettysburg. He was hit by the
rebels at the first battle Of Bull Kun
and at Antietam. At the latter bat
tie his clothes had seven bullet holes
through them. He was promoted
Major after the battle of GAINESVILLE,
and Immediately after the battle OF
Antietam he was promoted Lleuten-
ant Colonel. He was wounded at
Gettysburgh the first day of the fight.
He was stationed with his regiment
on the extreme left, and the order was
to refuse his flank to the enemy.
While there was a rebel brigade
sweeping down on them, and every
thing was dense with smoke, he or
dered the colors to be carried back.
There were attempts to carry the col
ors back, but the men were shot down
in their tracks. Colonel Dudley,
anxious to get his regiment back IN
line, seized the coIors and held them
high above his head. He fell with .
bullet through his leg, but he chung to
the flag, while three men carried him
back and succeeded in getting his reg
iment in line. He was promoted
Brevet Brigadier General, over his
Colonel, tor gallantry. He lay at Lit
tie own, near Gettysburg, for fifty
three days after he was wounded, and
was then taken to the general hoSpl-
tai at New Haven, Conn, where he
remained until he went into the re-
cutting service. He went home and
recruited up his regiment, hoping that
he could return with them. He had
saddle made so that he could be
tied to it when he rode, but his leg
broke out afresh, and he had to aban-
don the army. He resigned in June,

Pandora'S Box.

BY s. E. W.
No doubt the tabled box OF Pandora
GU have heard of ere this time,
But the story Is 4 pretty one
And I'll tell it DER in rhyme.
Pandora was a lovely goddess,
Who lrOaa Jove received a Gift
OF a box of evils. and expressly told
That the lid she must not lift.
Bat Pandora was naturally curious,
As Womea are, they say;
And so this charge, not to open the box,
She found 1t hard to obey.
One day she cautiously raised the lid
To try Il little peep,
When loI the vile things sprang away
That there had lain asleep.
But she shut the box so quickly,
In her hurry and dismav,
That Hope, whom JOve had put there to console
Had not time to get away.
But the liberated evils,
Glad to do their wicked will,
Rushed through the world, where some remain
For our afiction still.
And the vilcst from Pandora's box
Found on earth by whatc'er chance;
That sinks the man, eXalts the beast,
Is called lntCmperanCe.
Like Death, it cloves a shining mark"
And strikes its victim everywhere
But where human hearts are breaking
You'll always find it there.
Mark the anguish, crimes, diseases,
Whose burden makes earth groan,
And say if any of them all
mtemperance can disown.
Then come out in the thick of the conflict,
Take the part OF right in the strife,
And give help to feeble brother
Who falls in the battle of life.
Help the hands at this upas tree falling,
And eer long we'll see it fall
For law hath raised Its powerful arm
At Temperance Macedonian call
Now Hope the red dawn is watching,
That proclaims coming day
| That shall flood the world with splendor
When this dark sins done away.
| Then man wilt prize his manhood,
Keep Gods temple clean and fair,
! And the woke of no saviSh habit
Will he bow his neck to wear.
| So sweet life's music then will sound,
When gone the sad refrain,
That heaven will hush its harmOnIcs,
To catch the earth's glad strain.

sIxTX-TATRD YEAR.

About sixty million copies of THE Sun have
gone out Of our establishment during the past
twelve months.
of all THE SUNS printed and sold last year you
would get continuous strip of lnterestlI & intOr-
nation, common sense wisdom, sound doctrine,
and sane wit long enough to reach from Printing
House Square to the top of Mount COperniCus IN
the moon, then back to Printing House square,
and then UiIrce-quarters of the way back to the
moon again.
But THE >UN is written for the inhabitants of
the earth; the same strip of intelligence would
girdle the globe twenty seven or twcntyelght
times.
If every buyer OF copy of TIE Sun during
the past year has spent only an hour over it, and
if his wife or his grandfather has spent another
hour, this newspaper in 1855 has afforded the hu-
man race thirteen thousand years Of steady read
1t is only by little calculations like these that
you can form any idea of the circulation OF the
most popular OF American newspapers, or its
influence on the opinions and actions Of Amer
can men and women.
THE sun is, and will continue to be, a newspa-
per which tells the truth without fear of cOnse-
quence, which gets at the facts no matter what
the process costs, which presents the news Of all
the world without waste of words and in the
most readable shape, which is working with all
its heart for the cause of honest government, and
which therefore believes that the Republican
party must go, and must go in this coming year
of our Lord, 1884.
Ifyou know THE sun, you like it ALREADY. and
will read it with accustomed diligence and profit
during what IS sure to be the most Interesting
year III its history. If you do not yet know The
Sun, 1t lie high time to get into the sunshine
