that the prpetioe introduced . Last winter, both here
and in Now York, of inviting. to dances at 5 o'clock
in the afternoon, instead, as in. former winters, at 9-
or 10 o'clock at night, has authority in the best days
of the American llepublic, socially, we may add, as.
well as politically. We hope to- see it a permanent
fashion for the benefit alike of old and young. We
hope, also, that by next winter the new, or, as it
turns Out to be, the old fashion will be adopted so
universally that no lady-liosto wW complain, as

THE FIRST BOOK EVER PRINTED IN PHI.
LADELPHIA.
A. D. 1685.
Antiquaries here, in New York, and in England;•
have long been in searchof an actually existing copy,.
but while it was known that Mr.•William-Bradford,
who introduced printing into the Middle Colonies of
British America, and whose two hundrOdthbirthday
was celebrated with so much pomp by Trinity
Church, New York, of which, in 1703, ho was a ves
tryman, and by the New York Historical Society,
who regard him as belonging to their State—had
printed in Philadelphia as early as A. D. 1685, no
actual issue from his press had been seen within
memory or tradition in these regions.
Mr. Jones then read a letter from a Philadelphia
gentleman in Newport, li. L, apologizing, however,
for putting before the Society a letter which was
obviously written as a private communication. Its
interest in a' historical point of view justified, he
thought, the freedom.
LETTER FROM THE HON. JOHN WILLIAM.
DEAR know the interest with which you
pursue every inquiry which concerns either the ho
nor of the press or the honor of Pennsylvania, and
am sure you will hear with pleasure of my disco
very in this ancient town of the first volume ever
issued from the press of the Middle Colonies;
tract printed in our own city in the year 1685.
This volume was the subject of some remark by
me in New York in May last on the celebration by
the Historical Society there of the Bradford Moon.
tenary, but I had then never seen it, nor seen any
body who had. I knew but little about it. Ire
ferred to it, however, as follows:
The earliest issue of Bradford's press known to
me is an Almanac for the . year MS, produced of
course in 1685. One copy alone seems to have sur
vived to this day and that one has wandered far
from the place omits origin. New England boasts
its possession. /t , was called America's Messenger.
A certain Samuel Atkins edited It. Ainohg the
remarkable events which were set down opposite to
particular days, there was set down opposite to that
one on which Mr. Penn assumed the control - of
things in Penn Sylvania, the following entry : "The
beginning of Government here by the L0P.13
PENN." This title of courtesy given to their Go
vernor was offensive to the Provincial Magistracy.
Atkyns Was summoned before the Council and or
dered to blot oat the words "Lord Penn," and Brad
ford was warned "not to print anything but what
shall have lyeence from the Council."
Behold! a second copy now turns up; I may
say most fortunately turns up, since that copy to
which I referred when in New York, as still in
existence, cannot be found. Within a few years it
has perished, apparently, to the world forever! The
Feoond copy, now discovered, is in the possession of
DAVID KONG, M. D., of this place—a gentleman not
more advantageously known in the walks of medi
cal science than in the departments of literature,
history, and social life. I have the tract now before
sue in his hospitable house. It is one of twenty
pages duodecimo, well printed, and on paper nmen
better than most which now absorbs the ink of Al
manacks. The motives which the editor, ATIVVINS,
who styles himself Student in Mathematicks and
Astrology,'—and who in our day of greater titles
would have doubtless been 'Professor' in those arts
—had to prepare the Kalendar, are stated in a pre
face written by himself. I make you an extract
from it on the spot, and while I sit at Dr. King's
table: _ . .
I having sojourned in & through several places,
not only m tide province but likewise in Maryland .
elsewhere, & the people generally comMaitting that
they scarcely knew how the time passed nor that they
hardly knew, the Day of Rest or Lord's Day, when tt
was,—for want of a Diary or Day-Book which we call
an Almanack* * nay hearing, this general com
plaint from such abundance of Inhabitants which are
here, I Was, really troubled; and did design according
to that small knowledge which I had, to Pleasure these
my countrymen, with that which they wonted; although
It be not completed iu that method which did intend it
should be. * Beside the table of Kings &c
had thoughts to have incerted a figure of the moon's
ecliptic; a gmall draught of the form 'v . thin city, 4s,
Talde m itnd the hour or the day, by the shadow of it
staff; but we not having tools to carve the in fit that
form that I would have their, nor time to calculate the
other, I pass it for Ude year, & not only promise it in
the next,. but likewise several more particular notes &
obtiervabeas Which shall not only do useful to this Pro
vi ace brit likewise to the neighboring Provinces on both
sides. In the meantime accept this, my mite.; being my
first fruits; & you will encourage 1110 0000111111 g to my
ability to serve you in what I may or can,—while I am

Our old friend BRADFORD, too, looms Up largely
through the mist of centuries, as indeed ho always
does wherever in the visions of our early press we
SCO him at all. We hero have an account by the
very man himself (how little ho thought that you
and I &mild ever see it!) of the introduction of print
ing into the vast region which now constitutes the
Middle States! It bears ineontestible evidence—
any one familiar with his style of writing will see.—
of having come from his own pen. It roads thus:
THE PRINTER TO THE READERS:
Hereby understand that after great charge & Trouble,
I have brought that GREAT ART & MYSTERY OF FltiMlNit
into this part of America; believing it may ho of groat
service to you iu several respects; hoping to find on
couragementorot only in thinAlmanack, but what else I
siml I enter upon for the use & service of the Inhabitants
of these 'Pails. golno lkinlaritiea there ha in this
Diary, which / desire you to pass by thin year; for being
lately come hither, my materials were misplaced & sac
of order, whereupon 1 was forced to use Figures & Let
ters of various Sizes, but understanding the want of
something of this nature: St being importuned thereto,
ventured to snake public this t desiring ou to accept
thereof; & by themect (as I. find encouragement) shall
endeavor to have 'things compleat. And for the ease of
Clarks, Seriveniers, be., I propose to print blank Bills,
BMWs, Letters of Attorney, Indentures, Warrants,etc.,
& what else presents iisellt, wherein I shall be ready to
serve you; and remain your friend. W. BltAltYtiltD,

as a starting point—thus

illegible ; and in the Errata we are told, "By re

PimAntr.r.u.b.t, May 6, 1864.
To , the Editor of The Press:
Sin: The movement of tag:datum-of our city and
country towards dispensingwith all! goods of foreign
production has much to recommend, it to the ap
proval and favor of the truly patriotic women of the
Lind, if, instead of promenading- our fashionable
thoroughfares dressed in foreign gew-gaws, they
would adopt some befitting costume' signifying the
love of country in the wearer, rather than the love
of display, so apparent in much that meets our eye
daily, our fair friends would do 'more• towards re
taining the admiration they seem to seek for in the •
profuse adornment of their persons. A few years
sine°, one of the most favorite styles dress worn
during mild weather_, was a gray grenadine, plain, N
simple, beautiful. Now, let us lost the patriotism
of our ladies who are engaging witksomuch zeal in
behalf of our country. Let us- sew what self
denial you can use, and whether you..arw willing to
lay-by your "silks, satins, and jewolry., ,, fox a little
while only, until our country is at peacw,, and her
brave defenders cease to shed their blood , for her.
Yours, respectfully,
AMETUOTJS.
What the Birds Said
•
BY JOBB" Ct. WIUTTINR.
The birds, against the April wind,
Flew northward, singing as they flew:.
They sang, The land we leave behind
Has swords for corn-blades blood for dew."
"0 wild-birds, fl ying from the South,
What saw and heard ye, gazing down?'*
" We saw the mortar's upturned mouth, -
The sickened camp, the blazing town!
" Beneath the bivouaC's starry lamPs,
We saw your march-worn children die:
In shrouds of moss, in cypress swamps,
We saw your dead a/mullioned lie,
"We heard the starving prisoner's sighs;
And SEIM, from line and trench, your sone,
• Follow our flight with home-sick eyes
Beyond the battery's smoking guns."
"And heard and gawye . only wrong
' '
And pain, I cried, '0 wing-worn foe s?"
"We heard.' ' they sang, the I?roedman'scong. .
The crash of Slavery's broken locks!
"We saw, from new,. uprisiugStates,
The Treason-nursing mischief spurted, '
AK, crowding Freedom's ample gates ,
the long-estranged and lost retttrie ' d.
"O'er dusky faces, seamed and old,
And hands horn-bard with unpaid toil,
With hose in every rustling fold,
We saw your star-droppt Bag 11110011.
"And, struggling up through sounds accursed;..
A grateful murmur clomb the air,
A whisper scarcely heard at first,
It tilled the listening heavens with prayers
"And sweet and far, as from a star,
Replied a voice which shall not cease,
Till, drowning all the noise of war,
It sings , the blessed songs of pene9l!"
bo to me, in a doubtful day .
Of chill and slowly-grew:nog Spring,
Low stooping from the cloudy gray,
The wild birds sang or seemed to sing.
They vanished in the misty air,
The egug wont, with then, in their flight;
But lo! they left the sllllatft
And iu the evening there was light.
