HE first English printer was born in the County of Kent, in the year 7412. Unlike many whose deeds and discoveries have shed a lustre upon the generations that succeeded them, William Caxton was born and brought up in what may be called a comfortable position. He was apprenticed in boyhood to a mercei of Lon- don, named Large, who, at his^. death, remembered the future printer by a legacy of twenty marks. The great aptitude of Caxton for business led to his being em- ployed in important international business of a commer- cial nature in the Low Countries. His hours of leisure were employed in translating Raoul le Fevre's Recueil des Histoires de Troyes, the original of which was the first book he printed, though, according to some, it was preceded by The Game and Plays of the Chesse. Roy- alty smiled upon his labors, and the Duchess of Burgundy, it is said, assisted him in his work. By what means Caxton learned the art of printing is not known, but he travelled in Brabant, Holland, Flan- ders and Zealand, and his types afterwards showed -hat in these parts he learned his trade ; as his own founts of type were what is known as " black letter," and not of the more beautiful Roman, Venetian or Parisian jjatterns. Uncertain as are all the dates in connection with the history of the subject of our sketch, it is not known pre- cisely when he returned to his native land ; but it is gen- erally supposed that he brought the art of printing into England in the year 1474, at which time he was becom- ing an old man. He took up his residence in the vicin- ity of Westminster Abbey, set up a printing press, and 10 between this time and his death, in 1491 or 1492, printed and published no less than sixty-four works, an enumer- ation of the quaint titles of which would probably be wearisome to the reader. The Arte and Crajfte io Kfwwe Well to Dye may be taken as a fair specimen of the pe- culiarity of these works, Caxton, by translating a great number of books from the French, greatly contributed to promote the state of literature in England ; and in type founding, the fact of his making rapid strides is attested by his having used five distinct founts of letters. His original letter is de- scribed by Edward Rowe Mores to have been of the sort called " Secretary." Afterwards he came nearer to the "English" face. He used three founts of ''Great Primer," one of " Double Pica," and one of " Long Pri'iier." These types very nearly agreed with the bodies which have since been so designated. All his works, however, as has been remarked, were printed in what is known as " black letter." The two largest collections of the productions of Caxton 's press now known are those in the British Mus- eum and in Earl Spencer's library at Althorp. P^om the evidence of Wynkyn de Worde, it appears that on the last day of William Caxton's life he finished the translation from French into English of the Lives of the Fathers. He was in every sense a man of business, of sobriety, and of indomitable perseverance ; a man whose career has shone with a great light on the path- way of many succeeding as})irants to typographical fame ; and let us trust that now, at the time of the celebration in the transatlantic city of Montreal of the four hun- dredth anniversary of his introduction of the " art pre- servative of all arts" into England, the memory of his life and labors may act ?■ a stimulus to the present gen- eration to strive to perf( m thoroughly, and with progress always in view, their duly to God and their fellow-men. By entries in the parish records of St. Margaret, Westminster, these items may be read : " Item : atte bureyng of William Caxton, for iiij. torches vj.s viij.d. Item : for the belle at same Burey- ng, vj.d." * V 11 ^'V NO MORE GRAY HAIRS. LTJBY'S PAHISIAH HAIH HENEWEH WILL RESTORt GRAY HAIR TO ITS NATURAL COLOR.

Words are piled up steady and slow — Steady and slow, But still they grow. An 1 words of fire they soon will glow ; Wonderful words, that without a sound Traverse the earth to its utmost bound ; Words that shall make The tyrant quake. And the fetters of the oppress'd shall break ; Words that can crumble an army's might, Or treble its strength in a righteous fight. Yet the type they look but leaden and dumb. As he puts them in place with finger and thumb ;. But the printer smiles, And his work beguiles. By chanting a song as the letters he piles, With pick and click, Like the world's chronometer, tick ! tick ! tick O, where is the man with such simple tools Can govern the world like I ? With a printing press, an iron stick, And a little leaden die. With paper of while, ami ink of black, I support the Right, and the Wrong attack. Say, where is he, or who may he l)e, That can rival the printer's power ? To no monarchs that live the wall doth he give — Their sway lasts only an hour ; While the printer still grows, and (xod only knows When his might shall cease to tower ! A PRINTER'S EPITAPH. No more shall copy bad perplex my brain, No more shall type's small face my eyeballs strain ; No more the proof's foul page create me troubles, By errors, transpositions, outs and doubles : No more my head shall ache from authors' whims, As overrunnings, driving-outs, and ins ; The sturdy pressman's frown I now may scoft", Revised, corrected, finally wrought off. 14 THE ART PRESERVATIVE OF ALL ARTS. -^•►- . commemorates to-day the dlh anniversary of the grand- science that the world has that the art of })rinting, per- petuating as it does, all other arts and sciences, should not have been able to hand down to posterity the name of its discoverer. Haerlem, in Holland, and Mentz and Strasburg, in Germany, all claim the honor of having been the birth- place of typography ; and it would seem that one Lauren- tius, sometimes called Coster, living in Haerlem, has as good a claim as any one to the honor of the discovery, about A. 1). 1429. Laurentius was rich and practised printing in its original rude state, with wooden tyi>e, never attemi)ting to cast types in metal. Laurentius em])loyed two servants, brothers, by the name of GeinOeisch, the younger of whom was distin- guished by the name of Gutenberg. The elder of the two took advantage of his accpiired knowledge of print- ing to steal a large ])art of his master's types on a Christ- mas eve, when the festival was at its height. He ab- sconded with his ill-gotten plunder, a few miserably cut wooden blocks, the first beginnings of the art that was so soon to shake the world with its significance, and set up a j)rinting concern at Mentz. Here he was assisted by John Fust, alias Faust, who shared the profits with him. The younger brother, Gutenberg, also joined the partner- ship, and the three earnestly strove to attain the art of making metal types with cut faces. After much labor, they succeeded, and in 1450 a part of the Bible was issued from their press. In 1456, one Peter Schoeffer. an ingenious man, com- pleted the invention of metallic types by casting them with faces, complete, instead of first casting the shank and afterwards engraving the letters on them. Faust 15 was so much pleased that he gave Scha^ffer his only daughter in marriage. From this time the knowledge and practice of printing were gradually extended through several countries. Caxton set up his press in London, and others were established in Boulogne, Paris and Rome, which made rapid strides towards the improvement of the work they undertook. PRINTING IN AMERICA. The first press introduced into America,was at Mexico about the year 1540, and the next at Lima, Peru, in ^584. Cambridge, Mass., is entitled to the distinction of having the first printing j)ress in the United States, which published the Bay Psalm Book in 1640. The first book issued in the Middle Colonies was an Almanac printed in 1685 by William Bradford, n-^ar Philadelphia. Brad- ford lived to a great age as a printer, and did much to introduce the art into this country. The first newspaper in America was the Boston News Letter^ which was issued by John Campbell in 1704, and was published for seventy'two years. James Franklin, an elder brother of Benjamin, established the New Eng- land Courant in 1 7 2 1 . In Montreal alone there are to day more than thirty printing establishments, in some of which the perfected machinery presents an astonishing example of the progress now attained in rapidly supplying the world with news by means of the printing press. The working of the Witness 8-cylinder press is a sight that will long be re- membered by visitors to that successful and well-managed establishment. \,e:><^!^^^^>S^^^y^j<^ s 16 SPECIMENS OF DIFFERENT FOUNTS OF TYPE (ROMAN.)
