NAPLES. Since the change of dynasty the press has been comparatively free, and there are even published in this city 34 political, 5 artistic, 3 legal, 4 religious, 5 theatrical, and 2 literary newspapers or periodicals.

SPAIN.-After undergoing four prosecutions, which are not yet decided, but which, nevertheless, have compelled a thrice-renewed payment of caution money, the journal El Imparcial has ceased to appear. It is difficult to understand how an independent journal could exist under the new press law. The publishers, printers, and booksellers throughout Spain are signing an energetic protest against a proposition that has been submitted to the Congress for an augmentation of the Customs' duty on paper imported from abroad. The authors of this retrograde proposal threaten ruin to thousands of families for the sake of favouring some score of manufacturers, who have managed to profit by a longexercised monopoly, which has enabled them to sell detestable paper at a very high price. Other deputies put forth even more extravagant propositions, demanding not only increased import duties, but absolute prohibition.

INDIA. By a recent Act, all printed and engraved matter, except newspapers, must be registered, and printers are compelled to sell three copies of every work to the local authorities. One copy will be sent to the Secretary of State, and every quarter a descriptive catalogue will be published in the Gazette. The Act applies to all India, and consolidates the various press and copyright acts. The name of every printer is registered, and the payment of two rupees (four shillings) entitles to copyright. It is thought by those on the spot that, if the descriptive notices be at all full and accurate, the Gazette will contain a mass of filth and obscenity such as has never before been brought together. As it is, an official is employed to translate and send in a weekly report of all papers published in the vernacular of Northern India. In addi

tion to printed matter, there is, it appears, a large and lucrative business carried on in manuscripts. These are the filthiest of all Indian productions.

BOOKBINDING AT THE PARIS

EXHIBITION.

THE month of May has had a marvellous effect upon the general appearance of things, both within and without the building, although much still remains to be done. The English section was the most forward, and in the department of books scarcely a thing has been added since last month, and barely an alteration has been made; even the blackguard literature, filthy songs, and obscene valentines mentioned in our last, retain their prominent positions, as though the South Kensington collectors were proud of their achievement; possibly they are. We were incorrect in saying that no cloth-binder exhibited : Messrs. Trickett and Son do so, but we may readily be forgiven for overlooking their case.

The leather binders who exhibit are Messrs. Hammond, Ramage, & Coppinger, & Zahensdorf. Mr. Riviére applied for space, but for some reason or other did not send in any books. Mr. Bain's name also appears in the list, but the volumes bound by him are only to be seen in the cases of other exhibitors.

Mr. Hammond, nephew and successor of the late John Wright, Noel Street, has chanced to get the first place; and we are by no means sure that he does not merit it. The books in his case have more distinctiveness of character than those

As we have had non books in our hands, our remarks only to the outsides. The most noticeable are "Chateaux de la Vallée de la covered with a profusion of elegant t Libri's "Monuments Inédits," 11 massively hand-tooled; Longmans' Testament," morocco, tooled with bla gold;"Contes de la Fontaine,” 2 vols, n style of Louis Quatorze; "Gil Blas," Spanish morocco, with borders; two v on flowers, bound in vellum, elegantly painted; a "Missale Romanum," folio, n Grolier pattern, with four Maltese crosses on each side, having a gilt metal papal centre--a very elegant and imposing Mr. Hammond also exhibits a large nu other books, bound in a very creditable in calf and morocco.

Among other works are a compl of Messrs. Macmillan's "Golden Tri series, bound in different styles and patter very covetable lot of books. The most ambi piece of work is a Dante, illustrated by bound in crimson morocco, inlaid with and green-a most elaborate piece of work ship. The other more noticeable book Aytoun's "Lays of the Scottish Cava 4to., crimson morocco, inlaid on a cho ground, with the regal Scottish arms, the arms of the Angus, Graham, Du and Montrose families in their proper colours; "Paleographia Sacra," 4to., morocco, inlaid to a very antique Grolier) with a curious and deep dentelle border inside silk linings. The specimens of binding comprise a curious old black lette tion of "Virgil," published in Paris in 150 bound in vellum, painted with an int arabesque pattern in crimson; a copy of of National Poetry," in vellum, inlaid wit morocco in circles covering the entire copy of "Gudrun," post 8vo., inlaid in and green.

Mr. Zaehnsdorf, of Brydges Street, com the trio, and exhibits a number of books will please the most critical eye. Among are a copy of the French edition of "Bible," bound in reddish-brown morocca finished with a broad missal border, inla dark brown, with green leaves and red fi with an ornamental cross in the centre, crown of thorns in the middle; "Atala," illustrated by Doré, in blue morocco, inh the modern style after Maioli. The inside laid with red morocco, and finished with telle border; "Don Quixote," orange mor inlaid after Maioli in very bold style; Uhl "Gedichte," rich brown morocco, inlaid early Florentine style. The inside has an in leaved border and centre-piece, all inlaid s Viollet le Duc's "Dictionnaire de l'Ar

Didot's "Virgil and face," in yellow morocco, inlaid with foliage. re are various other styles exhibited, inding the Dentelle border (16th century), tique Calf, Old Calf, Cambridge Calf, Dutch Tree Calf, Old German Calf, and other les, modern and antique.

The books bound by Mr. Bain are distributed the several cases of Messrs. Cassell, Messrs. , and of THE BOOKSELLER. They are of rious styles and qualities.

The Proprietor of the BOOKSELLER exhibits a rge number of "well-printed books in good Gilings," with a view of showing the present tute of both arts. A separate list, with the ies of the various printers and binders, as been printed; this may be had on application. Tue collection is of some interest, inasmuch as it hables one to contrast the styles of different workmen in various parts of the country.

Messrs. Spottiswoode exhibit a number of books which they have printed for various publishers. Of these they have printed a catalogue raisonné. Messrs Clowes exhibit a few specimens of print

so also do Messrs. Harrison and Son, who parently do not claim to do first-class work. Closely connected with the binding department, we should notice Mr. John Leighton's exhibition of designs, as supplied by him to nearly all the leading publishers. Formerly it was the castom for the printer to put a few flowers or a border on the wrapper of any serial he printed, and nothing better was looked for. The cloth binder adopted a like plan; almost anything did for the outside. After a time came some innovators, who thought that improving the outsides might help to sell the books; and the pencil of Mr. Leighton was called in. Now every book has its own special design, and there can be no doubt that the beauty of its outside has an normous influence on the sale of the work. In Cost of Mr. Leighton's designs there is a classic party of taste, at times verging upon the severe, t in other instances exhibiting a flexibility and fertility of the most pleasing character. Why is it, we may ask, that shelves of English d-class binding look much handsomer than lar work done in France? The answer will probably be that English workmen put on more gold, are more careful in the selection and paring of their lettering-pieces, in contrasting colours, and applying suitable tools, than the French. Perhaps the real answer is, that while there is a very large number of buyers of and books in England, there are comparavely few who are really good judges of binding; and therefore, that much is left to the taste of the bookseller, who generally turns out his rk in a creditable manner.

Greater care is taken with the rounding of the backs, the working up

of the bands, and the general finish of the heads and tails. When we take these well-bound French books into our hands, we are struck with the neatness of their workmanship: the leather is pared down to the thinness of paper before it is turned in; the corners are joined in an almost invisible manner; and even the boards are, to all appearance, harder and more sharply cut than is common in England. There is also a commendable firmness in the books themselves; the edges have a brilliancy of gilding that we are only now beginning to imitate; or, when the edges are marbled, the marbler is careful to get his pattern exactly square with the book. Great care is also taken with the joints and the linings. The single or double fillets or rolls have finer lines than ours, and are laid on with marvellous precision. The one great fault of French books is that they do not open well-as though the very best work were intended for show rather than for We know not whether French binders are generally their own designers, or whether they employ artists to design for them. Occasionally we find such an amount of excellence in the patterns, that we think the best French binders, like our own cloth-binders, must employ professional artists. Certainly the prices charged for firstclass work would generally suffice to cover an artist's fee.

In our next we shall go through the numerous foreign courts, and wind-up with a notice of French booksellers and bookbinders.

PARIS GUIDES.-Everybody goes to Paris this season. Our own Princes led the van; the King of the Belgians followed; the Czar is there now; and our loving brother and cousin of Prussia is to follow immediately. The Sultan, escorted by the English and French fleets, will shortly be there; and even the Emperor of China, it is said, has politely accepted an invitation. Guide-books are therefore greatly in demand. It is beyond our knowledge whether Paris Guides are to be found in Chinese, Japanese, or Turkish; but if they exist in those and kindred tongues to the same extent as in English, the Bibliothèque Imperial must devote considerable space to the reception of these tributes to the metropolis of the universe. To all intents and purposes, Paris is a showplace. Kings, queens, cardinals, royal mistresses, stern republicans, questionable regencies, and paternal emperors have laid themselves out for the purpose of ornamenting and improving the city. The present Emperor is ably seconded by Baron Haussmann, in his endeavours to beautify and extend; but in so doing, they have removed many an old landmark, and destroyed much of that Paris that was rich in historical recollections. But what care most sight-seers for this? La Cité est mort! Vive le Paris! Lutetia is no more, but Paris flourishes! What the Paris of the Restoration may have been we know not, but it must have differed widely from the Paris of to-day. Those who first knew it ten years ago would not recognise many portions of it now; even in so short a time as that, the whole district so well described in Eugène Sue's "Mysteries" was in existence; the " Lapin Blanc," in the Rue aux Fèves, and numbers of similar dens, existed in the Cité. They were inhabited by the lowest of the low, and were occasionally visited by the amateur, in the same manner as our Seven Dials were visited by the Prince Regent and his friends in the early part of this century. The narrow, ill-paved streets, reeking with filth and fever, have gone, and in

their stead we now see magnificent public buildings or open "places.'

[ocr errors]

There are so many public buildings, churches, galleries, and palaces to see, that a "Guide" is absolutely necessary. Formerly, it was the custom to obtain a Swiss or other polyglot guide, and pay him by the day for going round to the principal objects of interest; but most Englishmen prefer finding these out for themselves, and as they generally have but little time, they wish to economise both that and their money, by doing" all they can in the week, ten days, or fortnight at their disposal; and for this purpose require a trustworthy Guide-book. Several new ones have recently been published, some of which we have not seen. One professes to say how a visitor may go to Paris and back, and spend a week there, for five guineas. Our reply to this would be, "Don't." Any one who wishes to visit Paris, for the first time, during the Exhibition, when everything is at its highest, had better either start with more than five guineas in his pocket, or stay at home. An old traveller, who knows exactly how to do it, will find five guineas a very close shave indeed; but to one without experience, the result would be an amount of discomfort that few would like to face. The "Guides" are of all prices, to suit all classes. First, we have one at threepence

The Christian Knowledge Society's.-The best part of this is the coloured block plan of the city, pointing out most objects of interest, and all the leading thoroughfares. The amount of information is small, and that which should certainly be contained a list of the English Churches, with their hours of service-will be looked for in vain.

Gowland's Guide (Hamilton, 6d.), tells visitors how to go, and what to see when they get there. For a first visit, this is the best Guide we have seen. The author, an Englishman, thirty years resident in Paris, is well aware of the deficiencies of his countrymen, what they wish to see, and also what they are likely to stumble against. Even as a companion to other Guides, the work will be useful. It is written in a pleasant colloquial style, so that without any effort, the reader learns much about things and places.

Hotten's Imperial Paris Guide. (1s.) Arranged alphabetically. The publisher's advertisement so fully describes its merits, that we cannot do better than follow what is therein stated:"It is issued under the superintendence of Mr. Charles Augustus Cole, Commissioner to the Exhibition of 1851. 200 pages, 24 illustrations, folding bird's-eye view of the Exhibition, map, plans, &c. An unsurpassed shilling's worth. This Guide is entirely new, and contains more facts and anecdotes than any other published. The materials have been collected by a wellknown French author, and the work has been revised by Mr. Cole, whose experience in Exhibitions and kindred matters gives the book a special value."

Kirkland's Guide (1s.) is intended for such as have only a few days at their disposal, and wish to include the Exhibition in their week's excursion.

Chambers's Handy Guide (1s. 6d.) contains a good deal of practical information collected by a keen observer, but much of it is such as belongs rather to a Cyclopædia than to a popular Guide; and although a new edition has been recently issued, it is deficient in many points on which the visitor requires information. A mistake, too, has been made in the map, in which several streets that do not exist are laid down; it is pro

bable that they will be made two or thre hence, but at present others less direct actual existence.

Cassell's Guide (2s.) appears to hav written on a larger scale than it has been Some portions are well done, while oth meagre in the extreme. Like that in Chambers's, the map in this is incorrect.

SHABBY PUBLISHERS.

To the Editor of the BOOKSELLER. S-Some few publishing firms having of late resorted to the dodge of sending the first two or three parts of serial publications for review, and then discontinuing them as soon as notices appear, it may not be out of place to state, that a movement is on foot amongst editors which is likely effectually to prevent the gentlemen in question from reaping the advantages they seek, quite so cheaply.

OBITUARY.

April 20, aged 69, the Rev. William Keating Clay, B.D., vicar of Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire. The deceased had laboured long and hard in a somewhat unpopular field-gleaning, viz, that connected with the English Prayer Book. In these studies, unlike most liturgical students, he retained strong Protestant convictions, and for this reason, perhaps, he met with but little sympathy from his fellow-labourers. His best known works are the Prayer Book Illustrated, published in 1841, by J. W. Parker, and the volumes of Liturgies and Private Prayers, edited for the Parker Society.

May 9th, at his residence Hornsey Road, Mr. Robert Forbes, for 53 years with Messrs. Roworth & Son, printers, Bell Yard. The deceased was one of the early promoters of the flourishing Finsbury Savings Bank.

May 10, at Bury, Lancashire, aged 66, Mr. John Vickermann, bookseller and printer. The deceased, a native of Halifax, was at the age of fourteen apprenticed to the late Mr. Tasker, of Skipton; but owing to his master's failure, he completed his term with Mr. Crompton, of Bury, with whom he afterwards worked as journeyman, till, in 1835, he commenced business on his own account. The deceased was much respected by all who knew him. The business will be continued by his second son, Charles.

May 11, at 219, Regent Street, Mr. Hippolité Bailliere, aged 58.

[ocr errors]

May 14, aged 33, William McConnell, artist and draughtsman on wood. The deceased had Just begun to make name and fame when he was attacked by consumption, which prevented him for nearly two years past from working at his Profession. His sketches, which abound in humour, appeared principally in "London Society," the Leisure Hour," and the "Welcome nest," in which latter periodical he illustrated Mr. Sala's "Twice Round the Clock," by a Series of clever drawings of London life and Character; and designed a comic extravagance, Called the "Adventures of Mr. Wilderspin," to Which Mr. Halliday afterwards furnished a text. Mr. McConnell, to whose peculiar talent as a Comic artist we have more than once drawn

attention, was well known and appreciated in literary and artistic circles, but like his friend and fellow-labourer, Mr. C. Bennett, he died at an early age, before his work had become sufficiently remunerative to allow him to provide for his family.

May 15, at 9, North Crescent, Bedford Square, aged 80, Mr. Thomas Hookham, of Cadsdew Cottage, Risborough, formerly of New Bond Street, librarian and bookseller.

May 18, at his residence, 6, Belsize Park Road, Hampstead, aged 74, Clarkson Stanfield, R. A. This eminent artist began life as a sailor, and thus made acquaintance with the sea and other nautical matters, which he subsequently turned to such good advantage in his famous paintings, "The Day after the Wreck," "The Abandoned," ""Wind against Tide," "The Victory towed into Gibraltar after the Battle of Trafalgar," and other subjects so well known and so much admired at the annual picture exhibitions of the Royal Academy, of which he became an Associate in 1832, and an R. A. in 1835. His name will be remembered in literature from his connection with Douglas Jerrold in his production of the nautical play of "Black Eyed Susan," for which he painted the scenery when it first appeared at the Surrey Theatre.

May 22, aged 79, Mr. E. H. Bailey, the eminent sculptor and academician.

May 23, at Glasgow, aged 74, Sir Archibald Alison, Bart. He was the son of a clergyman, author of a work on "Taste." Educated at Edinburgh University, he was, in 1814, admitted a member of the Scottish bar. During the following eight years he travelled on the Continent, and witnessed many of the events of that stirring time. In 1822, he was made Deputy Advocate for Scotland, which office he held till 1830, when he was appointed Sheriff of Lanarkshire. In 1845, he was elected Lord Rector of Marischal College, Aberdeen; and, in 1851, Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow. In the following year he received a baronetcy from the government of Lord Derby, and in 1853, the University of Oxford conferred upon him the degree of D.C.L. He was an industrious but prolix writer; he produced numerous essays and treatises, and was a constant political contributor to " 'Blackwood's Magazine." His most important work, upon which, indeed, his fame as an author will mainly rest, was his voluminous and well-known "History of Europe," which he commenced in 1833, and completed to the last French Revolution and the accession of Louis Napoleon to the throne, in 1852. It passed through several editions, and has been translated into various foreign languages, and may be considered, on the whole, as an able, but by no means impartial performance.

May 25, at Peckham Rye, aged 79, Robert Archibald Armstrong, M.A., LL.D., author of a Gaelic dictionary.

May 26, at 77, Gloucester Place, aged 65, Sir Thomas Phillips, Q.C., Chairman of the Society of Arts.

May 27, at his residence, 37, Great Marlborough Street, aged 69, Mr. George Richard Metzler, music publisher.

Recently, at the early age of 39, Mr. Borrodaile, a clever scholar, but somewhat erratic. He was the son of a clergyman, and was for some time at Cambridge, but left there suddenly without taking any degree. The deceased published nothing in his own name, but some well-known works bearing that of a living littérateur, are said to be mainly the work of Mr. Borrodaile.
