MISERIES OF A COMPOSITOR-B-Yj ONE.

Wo hear a good'deal of the miseriesof editors, but never of those of iheirhnmble coajutors, the compositors; ne- -

Ivenheless, the ldller have their grievnn- -

ces, and the philosophy and temper withv. hich they are borne, are in strikingcontrast 10 the irritable petulence of theirstipeiiois of the quill.

By your leave, Messrs. Editors, I trillenumerate a sew of tho more manifoldof the compositors' miseries. The em-

ployment ns a compositor is of a two soldn.iture mechanical and mental. Hecommits to memory as much of his copas can readil bo retained by once read-'inp- ;

over, and then proceeds to pick upjlhe individual letters of which this por-

tion is composed, attending, at the sametime, to the punctuation, spelling andgrammar. To do this successfully

undivided atteniion, a quick oye,n ready hand, and untiring patience.Under the most favorable circumstance,this labor brings the compositor to a

.premature old age his sight sail", hishand becomes trcmu ous, the sense of

jlouch dulled, and the nerves loso theirquickness and energy; this, with butsew exceptions, is the necessarry andine itable result of his employment. 'Jutin addition thi", he is subject to manymiseries from the ignorance, the caprice,or the carelessness ofaulhois.

flie compositor has a certain numberof squares exacted from him as a day'swork: this is expected, whether hi copybe clear or obscure, legible or illegible,punctuated jr not. Upon these circum- -

slanceahis earnings- - his bread dependand common humanity would dictrteWau hors that their ministering servant,the compositor, should be assisted as.

much as possible in his humble laborsfiT their present fimc and suture honor.

Illegible copy i, perhaps, the compositor's greatest miser), as it is frequentlysound in combination with every fault.I'll is 19 a universal sailing, of which theliter ite and illiterate are alike guiltyin ihe for.nfer it i inexcusably. Anothergrievous fault in authors is the atlemptto "live force to a feeble style, and clearness o nn'obscme one, In The fiequentintroduction of itUlc words. This spoilsthe appearance of the printing, is alikeinsultino- - to the taste and discriminationof the reader, and is a sore evil to thepurse cf the poor compositor, as the iltaiccae rs often in a dis'ant part of the office. This misery tries the tempcrmorethan the ineligibility though not so seri-ous in its results ihe former mav arisefrom lneapabilit) , the latter, alwajsIrom prcsuinption and bad taste.

Another Afljt of third rate authors,and had forTjjErcumposror, they are byfar the most numerous is coniinuallvinsulting the capabilitiep of the King'sEnglish with scraps ot lorejgn languages. 1 Ins is tne men 01 me snanowpedant, who mistakes the acquisition 01

languages for knowledge, and the displtnof them for wisdom. Its chief effect

upon the compositor is, that is every let-

ter, accent and dipihong, be not legiblymarked, ho makes mistakes; his besottedignorance is such thai the connection is

here no aid to him. One more misery,and we have done with' tho dolorous

Some authors (and their nameis Legion, for they are many) cannot tellhow a sentence will read tHl they see itin print then, indeed, its errors arc pal-

pable, and they alter and amend withgreat zenl and preervance, not reflect-

ing that these alterations cost the com

positor trouble, tiuia health and temper.Of those numeious preparations, whichare ihe result of ingnorance, not

rendered offensive by conceit or presump-

tion, and which fall to ihe compositor'sunhappy lot to shnpo .nlo form and come-

liness, wc take no notice; they are evilsinseparable from his condition, and arcfiequcntiy sufficiently amusing to com

pensate, in some measure, for the loss

they occasion.The author whom the printer delights

o honor, its one who writes legibly, withbut sew erasures or interlineations;whose nunctuation is systematic, andmay always be depended upon; whosestyle is not inveited and unnatuiai, otuslowing and easy, and readily retainedin the memory; who uses italic sparingly; foreign languages never; ana wnomake- - no alterations from copy in theproof sheet; such a man is tho glory and

pride of the printer in him he sees no

faults; the broad mantle of his meritscovers all minor defect', and though hisprinciples may be abominable, and hispurposes detestable, he is at least sure

of a good word from thecompositor.--(J. I'"""!.

A man was indicted lately in Englcndfor stealing a ham.

A distinguished civ ilian was lately explaining to his son, a small boj, the out-

lines of Italy, and remarked, as has oftenbeen done, that it resembled a man'sboot. "Well, sir," said the little fellow,"is I live to be a man, I'll put my soot

Origin of Day and Mart'uCs Blacking.Mr. Day was a hairdresser in an hum.

ble way, and was ihen, as he now is, be-

neficent and charitable in the extreme-On-e

day a soldjer enteied his shop andstated that he had just landed from an

and had a long inarch beforehim to reach his regiment; mat his moneywas gone, and nothing but sickness, fa-

tigue and punishment awaited him, un-

less he could get a list on a coach. Thoworthy barber presented him wiih aguinea, when the grateful soldier ex-

claimed, "God bless jou, sir how can Iever repay this? I have nothing in thisworld, except pulling a dirty piece ofpaper out of his pocket a recipe-lo- r ma-

king .blacking; it is the best that everwas seen; many a half guinea have I hadfor it from the officers, and many bottleshave 1 sold ; ma) ou be able to get some-

thing for it to repay this you have giventhe poor soldier your kindness I canneither repay or forget." Mr Day, whowas a shrewd man, enquired into thetruth of ihe story, tried the blacking, andfinding it good, commenced tho sale of it,and realized the fortune he now possess-es; but we believe no one can say thathe ever deceived or wronged a humanbeing; and his charities, particularly thoalmshouses near Edgeware, will makehim for ages to come, what he certainlynluins has been, a shining character, anda lesson to this and suture generations ofwhat industry can do in this wealthy aqdhappy country, from the smallest begin-

nings. Oracle of Health.
