Description
Excerpt: MILAN CATHEDRAL [Illustration: MILAN CATHEDRAL.] ?Show the motley?minded gentleman in;??the old friend with a new face, or, in plain words, The MIRROR in a new type. Tasteful reader, examine the symmetry, the sharp cut and finish of this our new fount of type, and tell us whether it accords not with the beauty, pungency, and polish of the notings and selections of this our first sheet. For some days this type has been glittering in the printing?office boxes, like nestling fire?flies, and these pages at first resembled so many pools or tanks of molten metal, or the windows of a fine old mansion?Hatfield House for instance,?lit up by the refulgent rays of a rising sun. The sight ?inspires us, and fires us;? and we count upon new letter bringing us new friends, and thus commence our Fourteenth Volume with new hopes and invigorating prospects.
