Complimentary to "The Homeless." |( In a letter written to usby a gentlemna who I \VHMoneof the Inviteil guest.s at me "Homeless ; i Collation," he speaks as follows of thatocca- i ?lon : "That entertainment was undoubtedly the I most remarkably successful I have ever at tended. If this is a specimen 01 your suppers and your "least of reason and How of boul." please put ine down as a chronic guest. All I have to say is that If this in the school ttie younger members of Abbeville society are to be taught in, with matronly grace, beauty,and virtue to inspire them, and with the example of the elder members of the I. library Club to stimulate them, let those elder members look to their laurels. Kor 1 have never before heard at any supper?and I have been at a good many?betti.r speeches or seen more calm self-possession and mod-' est oratorical talent 011 the uart of the sjx-.tkers, particularly among thf younger members the old fellows were of course used to harness which became them well." We are not at liberty to give our correspondent's name, else onr readers would know that praise from hint is praise indeed. We ?re sorely tempted to publish some very! pleasant things he says in praise of the Prcn <mil Manner and its editors, but modesty for-1 bids.

S., has thought ft Worth while to examiue the printing-inka v of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, with a view to discover the kind best suited for printing books or works of art which are to be long preserrod. The ink at present in use, he says, consists of carbon in a fine state of division, ground up with a mixture*of oils, soaps, and a substance called printer's varnish, which in all good printing-ink is linseed-oil,special! y prepared. It is l>y means or this oil,when properly prepared, that the ink or pigment adheres tiriuly to t'uo papor. Mr. Tiehborne has examined specimens printed in different parts of Europe, and finds "that the older privting-inks are more easily eapouiiied and washed off by alkalies,than those of the last century.' In their general character." he remarks, "they agree; as . carbon neema to Lava been tho ba?id of printing-mli from the t*u? of Johann Faust, ami for this reason ju in'.eJ matter will bear the action of aci'l o*;iiiis?rs, or > i i :?i. : jinf ?mnv. if not IJll'Ut-bUI'B \*UU llui'im..., -... , ? ill, the jiiiutiuy-iaka uf tLu fifteenth rai l sixteenth centuries are moro or les? sensitive to the uctiou of alkalies.
