Kobert Chambers.
Robert Chambers, of the well-known Edinburgh
publishing firm of William A Robert Chambers,
filed yesterday at Edinburgh. He was born in
1803, at Fecbles, and was two years younger
than his brother William. Ills parents were
respectable, and he received an excellent com
mon school education In his native town. Pecu
niary reverses obliged his parents to remove to
Edinburg, and Robert and William were, to a
great extent, thrown upon their own resources.
Their fondness for reading induced them to
Bclect the business of bookselling:, and William
eerved an apprenticeship from 1814 to 1819,
when he started on his own account
In a small way with only a few shillings capital.
Robert began business In 1818, and having strong
literary tastes, he tried hlsjhand at authorship
by starting a small periodical called the KaleU
tioscope, which William set up in type and
printed himself. This publication was short
lived, and in 1823 Robert began to write a
work which he hoped would prove popular.
This was entitled 'Illustrations of the Author
of Waverley," and referred to the supposed
original characters of the novelist. So soon as
this work was published he began to collect
materials for his "Traditions of Edinburgh,"
which appeared in 1824, and passed through
eeveral editions. In 1S26 Robert
published the "Popular Rhymes of
Scotland," and in 1827, "Pictures
of Scotland." A short time after he issued five
volumes of histories of "The Scottish Rebel
lion," two of a "Life of James I," and three of
'Scottish Ballads and Songs." In 1835 he com
pleted in four volumes his "Biographical Dic
tionary of Eminent Scotchmen." In the mean
time William carried on an independent busi
ness as author and publisher until 1829, when
the brothers united in the production of a
'Gazetteer of Scotland," which appeared ln1833.
Robert also wrote a "History of Scotland for
Juvenile Readers." In 1832 Chambers' Journal
Was projected by the elder brother for
the purpose of " supplying intellectual
food of the best kind, in such a form and at such
a price as to suit the convenience of every man
in the British dominions." The success of
Chambers' Journal was immense, and it soon
obtained a circulation of fifty thousand, and
subsequently it rose much higher. The success
of this publication induced the brothers to join
in partnership. In 1834 they commenced the
publication of "Information for the People,"
which was followed by the "Cyclopedia of Eng
lish Literature," "The People's Edition of
Standard English Works," "The Educational
Course," two series of "Tracts" and "Papers for
the People." Robert, although he had not
received any regular scientific education, dis
played from early life a strong tendency to such
Btudies, and he produced several geological
works. His last historical work was "The
Domestic Annals of Scotland." He also edited
the "Book of Days," which was completed in
1863, and he also aided greatly in the prepara
tion of "Chambers' Encyclopedia." The estab
lishment of the Messrs. Chambers in Edinburgh
is one of the sights of the city. Nearly two hun
dred hands are employed in it.

A Valuable Invention. Among the many de
vices of fraud and villainy, that of altering checks,
drafts, bonds, etc., to larger amounts than intended
by those Issuing them, has lately become popular
with rogues and swindlers, who, by removing the
figures and the words denoting the amount for
which the paper was drawn, and writing in the
Amount desired, have succeeded in defrauding
bankers, merchants, and others of very large sums
f money. To prevent the success of this sort of
fraud, many shrewd Intellects have devoted their
Attention, acd, at last, an invention has been per
fected which is signally effectual. We have been
shown an instrument styled the "check puncturer,"
by Mr. George W. Holmes, Jr., of this city, by which
the figures and words expressing the amount ol
money named therein can be Instantly punctured so
as to prevent a seoond writing of words or figures
In their places, leaving the original writing perfectly
intact. This invention, which Is very simple and
cheap, has been endorsed by all the prlnctpal banks
and bankers and many of the merchants of this city,
as may be seen by reference to our advertising
columns.

A despatch was received here to-day from Gover
nor Alcorn, of Mississippi, by the Alabama delega

tion Is being made concerning the outrage at Meri
dian; that there is some trouble along the frontier
borderiDg on the State of Alabama, but with these
exceptions affairs in the .State are generally peace
ful, and that he feels himself fully competent to
preserve order throughout the State.
Strong appeals are being made to Senators to
allow the bill which passed tae House respecting the
Duty od Coal and Salt
to pass the Senate. The Finance Committee will
not permit these measures to be acted on at the pre
sent session. Senator Trumbull and others, If the
session Is extended, will endeavor to secure the pas
sage of both bills. . .
itllolftter Scheackt
having made applioatlon for his pay as Minister to

cept cne mouth's pay. It appears that the law ex
plicitly states that no Minister or Consul shall be al
lowed to draw more than one mouth's par before
going to his place of duty. Mr. Schenck will,
therefore, be compelled to forego his pay as Minis
ter until he arrives In England.

has given notice that he will press his resolution,
