WREPARATIONS FOR A REVIVAL OF BSUSINESS--PBO- @RESS OF THE CENTRALIZATION MOVEMENT—COM- PARISON OF THE THRE PUBLIBHING CITTSS— STATISTICS OF CAPITAL, MANUFACTURES, IM- PORTS, RTC., IN THE TRADE. ‘There are indications of a movement among the book publishers, promising a speedy breaking up of the lethargy with which the literary interests of the country have been oppressed for nearly two years. An international copyright law is up for action be- fore Congress, and may possibly overtake the book twade here with quite a revolution before long. The extreme depression of the book business just now has turned the attention of leading houses to the question of trade sales and their management, al- ways the chief engine in the movements for a re- vival of bookmaking prosperity. The world of let- ters is too apt to treat the economical basis of its welfare with a supercilious disregard. ‘The literary man too commonly aspires more to the state of a courtier than the occupation of his legitimate sphere asa worker with hia fellows upon the common plat- form of industry. This mischievous conceit, one of the unfortunate heritages entailed upon literatare, has come down throngh generations, from the of courtly patronage, sycophancy and ful- dedications. At the present day it might readily be shown how absolutely the activity of literature depends upon the amount of capital in the book trade, and_ especially upon its eoncentration in large masses. In this view pro- poet abrogation of the Philadelphia session of the rade sales, and its probable result, the establishment in this metropolis of a re; great literary fair, as it were, in the manner of a clearing house for the trade, becomes a subject of national interes: and im- ce. Some facts, therefore, touching the ac- 1 condition of the book business of the country jnst now may eae suggestive and useful. The trade is in all respecta at the lowest ebb. ‘Phere have been but one or two publications of a noticeable character, other than a few reprints, for months past. There are scarcely any in press either, and almost none in preparation upon trade respon- sibility. One of the two trade houses ot this eity has ceased to urge a division of the trade, ses- sions held here, and resumes ition of private en- terprise in the ranks of the trade, as the other trade sale establishment did upon a like emergency in Boston. The tendency of trade towards @ centralization in New York, manifested in the desire for an abrogation of the duplicate sittings of its conventions in Philadelphia, is further indicated by the purposed removal of several impor- tant publishing houses to New York from Philadel- phia and Boston, with some of less note from other cities. One of the largest book firms in Boston, on Abe alithority of its senior member, will be included in this hegirt for the metropolis. The fact is be- coming noanimously recognized that @ centralized metropotitan co-operation will not only greatly facili- tate the business and rapidly increase the resources of the whole publishing interest, but even vastly enhance the prosperity of the book trade in those localities where the old divided provincial system only baim- pered and obstructed ite developement. ‘That this tendency of the trade has already pro- gressed beyond the power of any combination to eontrol the movement, may be seen M4 a giance at the statistics of the business. In 1840 its productive activity was estimated at $5,500,000 oe year, and the capital then embarked in book publishing and job- at $4,000,000; it is now rated as high aa sixteen to tighteen millions for its yearly productiveness. The trade in 1840 ay, evenly divided between the two cities. In 1856 a careful estimate of its growth by Goodrich, is distributed as follows: — New York, value of books produced. .. .. 86,000,000 Philadelphia, do. do. - 3,400,000 Boston, do. do. + 2,500,000 Cincinnati. do. do . - 1,500,000 The year of this estimate was one of the most active ‘the trade has ever experienced in this country. A Bomber of the Publishers’ Circular contained over ene hundred and sixty announcements of new works, ts, &c., for a single week. Such is the mo- mentary depression now, however, that even during the late general convention of the trade, half a dozen vokumes, chiefly religious, comprised about the entire current bulletin of new publications. To present a more definite idea of the present basix of the trade an estimate has been prepared for this article, which might serve to determine the comparative standing ‘of the three chief locations of publishing enterprise. The amount of capital engaged in strictly book making and jobbing has alone been regarded; all eolateral considerations of personal wealth, real eatate, tract and relizions concerns, periodicals, sta- tionery, Ac., are exciaded from the computation. ‘The estimate was prepared and revised with the as- sistance of several of the most experienced men in the trade. Each house being set down for its separate amount, the footings were determined to b For 50 houses in Philadelphia. . . $ For 40 houses in Boston For 75 houses in New York. . The well as the issues of the religious corporations. Could the cost of publishing alone be determined, the pro- portion for Philadelphia would fall very much be- w that of Boston. Whilst the latter city com- petes with New York in the activity and the stand ard yalue of its issues, and even eg wm perhaps more in proportion to its capital, Philadelphia con. je rd itself with Jobing . ¢ books of | oth, and icking up bargains of stale stereot: plates to be abel oF in competition with the more advanced enterprise of ite neighbors. Asa criterion of this eomparison, it may be remarked that a leading New York house, usually rating at a million and a quar ter, ix set down for its Looks, exclusive of periodi- @als, printing, binding and engraving establish- ments, real estate, Ac., at $750,000; whilst a larce Philadelphia firm, which may not issue two huo dred thousand dollars worth of its own publications annually, is rated at $650,000. This is because of the impossibility of discriminating the proportion of the latter capital actually invested in book job- bing, the matter of books forming only a portion of # very large business, compriving all sorts of things, from a classical dictionary to a package of pink aancers, or a box of baby powder, The official returns of imports, showing the amounts of foreign books sent to this coun- try, fully corroborate the other facta hear ing on the metropolitan progress of the trade. A comparison of the returne for the district of New York, with the whole imports ander this head, points significantly to the natural channel of the business. The figures also indicate the fact that it is not exactly a decline of the trade elsewhere, but a centralization of ita national growth and increase in this oi h has caused the pr sent disproportion. Had the increase of the imports for the past year continued anobetracted by the re valsion, it is thought the foreign book imports might have reached a million. The retarns for the past seven years foot up Imports of books. 1861 1852. 1863 1867 . 623,216 874,404 These amounts do not include the books free of @xty imported direct for use in schools and public Nbraries. The establishment of several fore’ houres here, with large consignments from abroad, rily explains the fluct n, and to some ex it the increase, in this branch of the book business.

He reviewed the carcor of of the first Napoleon, avd then contrasted it with that of the prevent Fimperer of France He denounced him as «ne who had gained the confidence of the people, and then when be obtained the power deprived them of ‘their liberties, and plandered them of their industry to the arm'er by which he was enabled to carry out jes:gns.

At this point he made an appeal to the multitude, conveying the idea thet Orsini i a martyr whose name is unstained, while the French Emperor is a tyrant of the most execra die stams. Theo ncluaion of the apeoch was as follows: — Lovis Nepokeon your star is already declining Murderer, robber; you are committed to the opprobriam of the werld.

She was greeted With applause we she appeared, and responded to the au- dience gracefully. The iecturer began by saying that thoso persons who bave been aecustome ¢ to speak on the topic aifecting the interest and the welfaro of woman had not yet reached that peint where the rudject would be greeted with ebeers. When the question came to the point that woman was to be regarded as part and parcel of the paople, and that an appeal should be made directly on her behalf, it met with nothing hke sympathy, To those who do not look at the influence of woman in the social circle, the matter doea vot present itself in Ye trae light. The world has been slow to learn that woman’s rights and human rights arg one and the same thing. All that is necessary to be uader- stood is, that a woman is @ Suman being having the rane ipaliepabie righis as all other members of her species, and that in the range of everything that cana be done by anybody it can be done by woman. The world had alao been slow to think that the will of womaa was not arbi trary. Man had always been inclined to think that that which was right in him was uot right in woman; forget. ling that the great object that ties beyoud the sphere of woman will slwaye be the noblest and the best that can be worked out It will be found that if woman occupied her proper epbere, ber position in it would not be in any way inconsistent with her place as wile, or mother, or xis- ter. In & great measure, ib this country, woman was not altogether negiected Joy man, for in the churches and meeting houses Soe 9 formed a great proportion of the congregations, There the wife sat side by ankle with ber husband; the brother with the slater, But this was not the case in other lands, If we wentamong the Mahomedans it would be found that women were sbut out entirely from any such participation im the hike privileges,and are made to rank with heatheas and with dogs. dia a woman could not eat with her buebapd, but here we do. Butif woman was in her pro- per spbere these wrongs would be righted. But the main question of the evening was whether it was right and proper that the elective franchise shouki be extended to woman. [his wasa vital qucation. Sut ask s woman if she would wish to vote, and with a face covered with blushes she would say no, because ebe does vot wish to go out of her sphere. She would mot wizh to broak through the barriers which time sad custom had thrown inher way. Bat the time lead further back than apy them present could remember when kings ruled, and the people a8 such no sovereiguty. In the hour of suffering, however, when the early seeds of the Revointion’ burst into life, they learned that the power to rule was in the people. (Cheers.) Ty wae then that the principle, radiant and beaotiful , of the peopie’s right and ability to rule and govern was first promulgated, and it ran from man to man and from mind Ww mind tui it became evicent that itwas @ truth that would yet have universal sway. lt was those who had fought and labored with so much energy to secure 80 much for themselves who afterwards trned round aod made slaves of the blacks.

Tho other half —the sovereign white peopie—think, too, that no wrong bas been cone woman by her exclusion from the baliot. They say, what docs she want? We will protect hor. Bat it waa necessary to see what eort of protection was this, and whether, after all, it would not be necessary to have something hike self protection. It haa been the experience of the past that no one clase has ever been able to legislate for another without doing some ——— bgt We ebouid profit by this to des! more equitably wit all clases. But, unfortunately, it was not so From Maine to Minnesota Jaws have emanated from our legislators agains: woman which, if they were enacted against men—aguingt those who had the power of resistance aod who could make war— would bring forth the force avd feeling ot Kanaaa to bear upon them.

Yet, the low, ignorant man, and the untutored Irish, who could not read the word ‘wote” if be tried, they were competent. Another clara would say tbat it would be unwomanly on the part of women thus to interfere; that she would exceed her province, and her children would be neglected. The feeling was ‘strong tp the public mind that it is @ place to which she ought not ee te associations inseparable from the poll. But wesay give us a place be y ourselves, and let the rowdies go by themaeives Every white male hu man biped of 21 years of age is allowed the privilege, but oply woman is excluded; and though many of these yo tera go rolling and staggering up to the ballot, it is easily otten next day, (Cheers.)

Mre, Stone then proceeded to review at great length some of the results to woman frotw the obnoxious laws of which she complained. Man saya to woman, ‘We have the stronger muscle, and we can compel yoo. Weha made laws, and you mustobey them. So long as you have property we have the power to tax it, und we will do so. ‘We delieve tbat taxation and representation are insepa rable, except in the case of woman’ (Cheers.) Whea ebe ventures a remonstrance she i told that these new fangled notions are merely the visions of a few women who are cesirout of notoriety. She dissents again, but ne locks at b ith his strong muscular armor, and he says « Now, you know we bave the power to tax you.” An the tax accordingly is levied on thousands of women, who are told that if they des're taxation and representation, an they affect them to be inseparable. themselves.

Pro- liflc in quantity it certaloly \+; tt io regard t» qnality wo are sorry to way that we fiat no great canse for cougrate- Jation. With the exception of the works of a few artina of acknowledged merit, euch as Durand, Konsett, Ooleman , Eliott, Huntington, Tait and Gilford, we have rarely seem agsembiea such an aggregate of cru ie efforts ant commen place conceptions. Moet of the 4 which im the catalogue with the names 9° acatemicians to them, would disgrace the afvier of & sign prinver, sidering that this is the thirty third oxnibition of stitution, we are compelled to say that the in: the Academy oa be progroes of arthas wrt b™s comme naurate with its pretensions. Notwithataoding the complaints made of the want of enconragement to oave talent, we are convinced that the fantt lies rather with the profession than with the pubic. Our artists do not go the right way to work to calttvate their abilities . The study of anatomy, for instance, is sadly neghected whilst in coloring, in spite of the immense mane of io formation which exists upon the old.proceases, they pre- fer working in the dark aod trasting to the results of their own unaided experiments, Hence, as will be seen, thera are but few out of the large number of pictures exhibited this year upon which the eye can rest with satinfaction. Imperfect drawing, harsh coloring, and conceptions of the most vulgar kind, are the prevailing characteristics of more than three-fourths of them. In this mass of rubbish, bowever, it 1s consolatory to find that there are afew pictorés which go tar to redoem American art from the stigma whieh sach 4 dew:ription conveys. In the clear bright iandecanes of Kenwett, the soft floating mountain atmospheres of Coleman, and the generally truthful effects of the econery of Durand, we recognise the pre-eminence of skill to which our o»unsry men are capable of attaining under ® proper system of eul- ture, The works of these artiets stand out in broad elief from the multitude of miseradle dauve by which they are surrounded, leaving, unfortanately, 20 Intermediate scale of excellence, such as is to be found in the exhibitions of the European schools. The conclusion, of course, is unfavorable to the progressive character of @merican art; und unless some extraneom Influences are brought to bear on it, we fear that it will continue sta- tionary. It is to be hoped that the formation of galleries of forcign works like those of Mr. Lennox, Mr. Belmont and Mr. Aspiowail, will euppiy some of the stimulants, which in other countries government collections furnish to the ambition of tho student. Their effect, it must be re- membered, however, can onty be partial, and in the ab- sence of national collections we sbali have to trost ina great measure to literary and scientific auxiliaries for the improvement of our students. If they would only read more and give some portion of their time to the anatomi- cal schools, they might accomplieh results which would win for them a respectable position in cosmopolitan art. After what we bave stated, it is not of course to be ex- pected that we should give to the six handred ani thirty pictures of which the present exhibition is compose, any- thing like a detailed notice. It would only be oscupying space unnecessarily, and inti task opon the patienca of our readera.
