PunctuatIon in Early Days.
London Press News.l


 Caxton, the first English printer. had three punctuation points-the comma, the colon. and the period; but it is doubt. ful if he had any idea of the principles of punctuation. The confusion resulting led to the separation of words by single dot Then a space between the words superseded the dot. which was made to perform another service. viz: 10 show the division Of a sentence.
 Some of Caxton's books are entirely without points. In others. one of the three points is used 10 the exclusion of the others. of the comma he used two sorts. a short and a long. but with no variation in meaning. The semicolon had no exist esce for him. though something like 1t ap- pears once. and once only. in his great healing type. He used the hyphen con stantlv. and where the line was very close spaced made the colon. which was much thinner. do duty for it The paragraph mark. showing the commencement of a new sentence. took the place of period. the colored initial serving the same pur- pose.

An Eloquent Response by Hon. T. W. Neal
of Dyersburg.
At the banquet given at the Com
mercial Hotel in Nashville Tuesday
night, after the commencement exer-
cises of the medical and dental de-
partments of the University of Ten
nessee and Nashville Medical College
Hon. T. W. Neal, editor oil the Dyers-
burg Gazette, responded as follows to
the toast, "The Art Preservative :"
That art which can preserve all arts
is SO essentially vital that it is not only
capable of containing life within itself,
but is so full, complete and overflow
ing in vitality that its touch holds in
co coordination and subOrdination all
those forces necessary to the existence
of the object it would preserve. The
Art Preservative presides as the genius
OF lie in the assemblage of all arts. OF
its bounty, poetry, philosophy. history,
sculpture and architecture pray for
Immortality. As it daguerreotypes
the phases of the passing age for gem
erations yet unborn, it defes the raw
ages OF time and laughs at the destruc-
tive agencies ofadecay and death 1t
holds in its hand the scroll of fame,
ard tie name it writes thereon is not
born TO die. 1t stimulates tbs human
mind and snlists eveFy noble and gen.
erous sympathy OF the human heart
1t is progressive and abhoFs retrogres.
siOn. Without il the human family
would probably be relegated to the
condition of the savage and barbarian.
1t can disinter buried cities and recall
into existence people forgotten GEN.
turtles ago Yhilest it records history
qpEritten, and upon the hidden baul-
der transcribes for endless preseEva-
ton the Autograph of Deity! The

represented here tonight, owes to II
the perpetuation of its valuable dis
eoyeries, important inventions, grand
achievements and wonderful triumphs,
while the galaxy Of its historic names
shines with undimmed and unfading
lustre in the pure efulgence and glo-
rious philanthropy of the art presery-
ativel Therefore, gentlemen, 1t is fit
and proper that, at banquet of the
members Of your noble, benevolent
and benefcient profession, the art
preservatiye should be remembered
while joyous lips kiss the ruby wave
