, From James Parton's Captains Of Industry.
The starting Of this great newspaper
ninety nine years ago was q mere a.
cident in the development of another
business. Almost every one who ha,
stood in . printing Office watching com.
positors set type must have sometimes
asked himself, Why not have Who'll,
words cast together instead Of obliRine
the printer to pick up each letter sep.
arately? Such words as and" "the. >
but, ''if, "''is. A" and even larger words
like although" and notwithstanding. >
occur very often in all compositions
How easy il would be, inexperienced
persons think, to take upa long word
snch rs extraordinary and place il il
position in one stroke! In the year
1885 there WAS . printer named John
Walter. we'll established in bust.
ness. who was fully resolved OF
giving the system o trial. Al
great expense and trouble he had all
the cOmmonest words and phrases cast
together. He would give his type
founder an order like this: "Send ns
. hundred weight, made M in separate
pounds Il heat, cold, wet. dry, murder.
fire, dreadful robbery, atrocious out
rage, fatal calamity and alarming ex.
plOsion." This system lie called logo.
graphic printing. In order to give pub
licity to the new system on which hs
held patent, a. we'll o. r. afford IL
fuller trial, he started Q Newspaper
which he called the Daily Universal
Register. The newspaper had some liz.
tie success from the beginning, but the
Geographic system would not work.
Not oniv did the compositors place oh.
stacles in its way, but the system itsel
presented difficulties which neither
John Walter nor any subsequent expert.
has been able to surmount.

OF the ex- Empress Eugenie. London
Truth says-Hcr old vivacity has died
ont. lit had not, she would try 70
subjugate it, for she ascribes to her i'm
petuons disposition the culminating
error of the emperor's reign. and an.
other event for which she will mourn a.
long o. life aud consciousness remain to
her. She has the generosity to admit
the errors Of Judgment into which she
was hurried, and which were attended
with DISASTROUS consequences both
for her family and for the ma
ton over which. by an aston.
ishing freak of fortune. she became
the sovereign. The empress still thinks
aloud. and talks often and rapidly OF
what il on her mind. She i'll hears any
mental tension, unless in religious ex-
srciscs. and has not the resources OF
music. embroidery, knitting, or sewing,
which enabled Marie Amelie tn beguile
the te,lium Of residence ut Claremont.
Her infirmity prevents her walking o.
much as she wishes. She lives al
together ut Marlborough in the past,
snd among objects reminding her Of de-
parted glories Of the emperor and Of her
i'll starred son. Of whom she can nov
speak without falling into parOxysms Of
grief. The inner woman il chastoned
by affection, and the outer woman faded:
but she is more interesting. perhaps,
than when she had the prestige Of bean
~. a throne, and Externally the most
court in Europe.
