EN, London, at the high price of 1:300. The first offer, it is said, was 000 guineas, and a copy was sold, a few years ag o, at 199 guineas. The Latin Bible bete spokn of is one ofthe most curious books extant. There exist but tour= teen copies of It. It is known as the "Forty-rwo line' Bible, from its containing forty-two lines in each column. The edition is connected with the earliest history of printing. The projector was Guttenburg, who was the inventor of moveable types. Guttenburg bad made seParate types of wool, lead and tin. In 1440 he Went to Mentz, whee he'. formed a connection with John Fug or nurtus, a founder. Faust and his partner Schaf fer, 'improved upon Guttenburg's invention, and With. moveable types of metal. The first book they printed was this Latin Bible, in two volumes. It was completed in 1555, and has been since known as the Guttenburg and forty-hco line Bible. The book is curious as the first one of any siie, printed with cast metallic type." Jahn Faust was the inventor of the Art of Print ing from cast metal types.

ERROR ABOHT THE INIEW TARIFF AC KkOWLEDGED. I The Lycommgpazette, which was one qf the Most decided MO tariff papers ; in Penesylania, has been convinc gr , of its error and thus Rand somely makes tb acknowledgment in an article on the subjects 1 - -: .We confess ourselves agreeably disappointed in regard to the iiracticle operation of the new Tariff. In common with a great majority of the people of, Penns flvania, we were strongly and earnestly opposed to the repeal' of the Tariff of 1842, and the passage of McKay 's Bill; otherwise, the Tariff of 1840, because we were afraid that it would-work serious injury to the iron' and coal interests, and prevent the.prospective development of our mineral resources. - , We adhered to the old doctrine of proteHion, as a means of sustainingl local interests, and . feareiV that every innovation was fraught withi mischief:, In a word, we felt and acted with the community about us; but in spite of our protests. a majority of Congress determin ed upon' the reduction and modification of the Tariff. The nev law went into operation on the first day of December last, and consequently, we have had an the first' instant, faun full months of trial of its provisions. Has the country been ruined in consequence? and is it likely to be?. Let us enquire. - .The prospects of an ample demand for coal I andiron, the ensuing season; at fair prices; are I abundant. From every quarter we hear of new enterprises of thr kind, about to be engaged in; while the operat yes are steadily enlarging and ex tending their hairless.' As yet the state of prices is rathir improved than otherwise, and remains so firm, that immense fortunes are accumulating rap- idly to all conctrned—we mean as proprietors of iron and coal est blisbrnents." As an evidene of the increased coal trade, it is reported that the quantity of coal transported over the Philadelphils and Reading :rail-road for the week ending l' i th instant, amounted to 26,763,11 toss—making a total thus far this year of 266,124,- 08 tons, against, 208,423,00 tons last year. The ' shipments froni the Lehigh mines for the week ending 10th instant, were 7,153,13 tons, and since 'the opening of navigation 10,408 tons. ' DIAL. W. W. S. BLISS. T This gentleM n, -Aicl-de-Camp to Gen. Tirtoa, who is now so avorably known to the country, is , a son of Capt. Davis, of the IL S. Army of 1512,1 and received hi military edutation at West Point, and graduated i 1533. His mother is now living, it is said, in the tate cif New Hampshire. In 1834, durin. , the Indi n troubles, he was ordered to Fort Mitchell, Ala., but shortly after he returned to West Point, where he remained until 1840, dis charging the chilies of assistant professor of math ematics, for which he was eminently qualified.' Having been amointed in 1.839 assistant' adjutant general,he was attached to the stafrof.Gen Taylor, then stationed upon the Arkansas frontier. In that capacity, he has since acted, rendering the most laborious and important services, and enjoying the lunreserved confidence of the General. His gallan try in all the late battles in Mexico, has especially signalized his tame, and entitled him to the grati tude of his countrymen But although he has been thus highly disiinguished in action, Major Bliss is chiefly regarded in the army on account of his lite rary attainmen t s, being one of the best writers of the day, and a finished German, French and Span ish scholar.
