  • The Times All the Crowd-Pleasing Tales of the Latest Scandals, and Gossip About the Famous of London
    READ NOT: And yet — in fact you need only draw a single thread at any point you choose out of the fabric of life and the run will make a pathway across the whole, and down that wider pathway each of the other threads will become successively visible, one by one. — Heimito von Doderer, DIE DÂIMONEN HDT WHAT? INDEX TIMES OF LONDON TIMES OF LONDON 1785 January 1: John Walter’s career as an insurance underwriter at Lloyds of London had come to an unexpected sudden end in a flurry of insurance claims arising out of a hurricane in Jamaica. He was close to bankruptcy, but had become aware that an advanced method of typesetting allowing for more than one letter to be set at a time, called “logography,” had just been invented by Henry Johnson. Not only did this new method promise greater speed of typesetting, it also promised fewer typesetting errors. Purchasing Johnson’s patent, Walker set out to create a printing company to put out a daily advertising sheet that profitably would demonstrate this promising new technological efficiency to all — and thus make sales for it. On this day the 1st edition of his Daily Universal Register was put out for sale on London streets. The sheet was in head-on competition with eight other daily newspapers in London. Like these other newspapers, it would include parliamentary reports and foreign news, as well as its advertisements. Walter, however, was primarily concerned with the advertising revenue stream which the sheet should generate: “The Register, in its politics, will be of no party.

Letters from the “Gentlemen of the Press,” 1810-1845 David E. Latané Virginia Commonwealth University In John Wilson Croker: Irish Ideas and the Invention of Modern Conservatism, 1800-1835, Robert Portsmouth analyzes the way in which the newspaper press was manipulated via interlocking circles of journalists and politicians during the era of Reform. In addition to Croker, one of the important figures in the Tory press was his fellow Irishman William Maginn, and it was in the course of researching and writing William Maginn and the British Press: A Critical Biography (Ashgate, 2013) that I began collecting letters to and from members of the press. The letters presented here help reveal the shape of relationships that prevailed on Fleet Street at the cusp of the Victorian era. A quick note dashed off by legendary Times editor Thomas Barnes, for instance, to John Wilson Croker shows how careful Barnes was, even as his paper was supporting the Whigs, to avoid offense to a powerful Tory politician and Quarterly reviewer.

  • Correspondence Between Dr. Benjamin Franklin and John Walter, Regarding the Logographic Process of Printing
    1928.] Correspondence of Franklin and Walter 349 CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN DR. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND JOHN WALTER, REGARDING THE LOGOGRAPHIC PROCESS OF PRINTING BY GEORGE SIMPSON EDDT O the very end of his long and busy life Dr. T Franklin maintained his interest in all that re- lated to the art of printing. The correspondence here printed took place in the years 1783, 1784 and 1785, after which there was a gap until 1789, when there was but one letter and that from Walter. Dr. Franklin died on April 17, 1790. During the years 1783-1785 the Doctor was living at Passy, as Minister Plenipo- tentiary of the United States to the Court of France. As is well known, he had a press in his house there, at which he printed, or had printed, passports and other oflBcial documents, and his famous bagatelles; he also had a small foundry and a shop in which he liked to work, as opportunity offered. It would seem that Dr. Franklin and John Walter never met, and that the latter was unknown to the Doctor until Walter wrote to him on December 29, 1783. John Walter was born in the year 1739. Not until 1782 did he become interested in printing. In that year his attention was called to the logographic process which had recently been invented by Henry Johnson of London. Walter purchased the patent rights of this invention, and acqviired premises in Printing House Square, calling his establishment the "Logo- graphic Office." The logographic process was not a success, although Walter printed some forty books by it, and also used it for a few years in printing "The 350 American Antiquarian Society [Oct., Daily Universal Register" (first issued January 1, 1785), and its successor, "The Times." With his first letter (that of December 29, 1783) Walter sent to Dr.

    The Crisis in Public Opinion An Address by Dr. Harold A. Innis Head, Department of Political Economy, University of Toronto Delivered at 24th Annual Luncheon Canadian National Newspapers & Periodicals Association Royal York Hotel, Toronto — Wednesday, May 12, 1943 Abstract: This manuscript was discovered among Harold Innis’s unpublished writings in his papers at the University of Toronto Archives (B72-0025/025). It bears the title and description given above, and is six and one-half single-spaced pages in length in a 10-point font. The manuscript is not accompanied by any material explaining its context and origins. However, a number of letters refer- ring to it were located within Innis’s correspondence (B72-0025/002 and B72- 0025/003). (Details on these letters are provided in an article by Buxton and Dickens in this issue of CJC.) Aside from the adjustment of the pagination (the original page breaks have been indicated with consecutive numbers in square brackets) and the justification of the text, the only major change made to the typescript of the address has been the addition of endnotes (there are no refer- ences listed in the original transcript). These not only indicate (as far as possible) the sources that Innis used for his quotes, but provide information about persons, journals, organizations, events, and various other phenomena referred to by Innis, many of which would not be familiar to the contemporary reader. Résumé : Ce manuscrit a été découvert parmi les écrits inédits d’Harold Innis compris dans ses documents aux Archives de l’Université de Toronto (B72-0025/ 025).
