JAMES'S BOYHOOD.
In 1810 James Harper left his rural
home on Long Island to become a pi int..
His parents wele devout Metho-
dists. His mother was a WOruan of rare
zifts. The morning James left his
•hoine, he began the great battle of life
fcr himself, his mother led tbe family
devotions. With a heart full of mater-
nal love she commended her child to
the Savior. She embraced him fervent-
ly, and bade him never forget his home,
the altar of his God, or that be had
"good alood in him." He was the
"devil" in the printing office not fax
from where the massive helm of the
Harpers now stands. All. the mean
and servile work • .was put upon him.
At that time Framelin-Square was a
(-Tented' abode. The old Knickerbock-
er, who were in trade, had their stores
in around that place. Sons of judges,
aldermen, and men of money - crossed
-the path of the young apprentice.
His clothes, made in the old homested,
were coarse in material, and unfashion-
able in cut. The young bucks made
snort of James. They shouted to him
•aCross the street,---" DidyQUIr boots
ceree from Paris I" " Give us a card to
your tailor?" "Jim, what did your
Blether give a yard for kour broad-
cloth ?" Sometimes the rude fellows
Came. near, and under the pretence of
feeling the fineness of the cloth,. would
grasp the flesh. James bore this insult
and taunting with meakness, which was
construed into cowardice. He saw
that he must take his stand, and end
this _imposition. He had ro idea ot
wealth' or position, but ..be meant to do
right, and so conduct himself that his.
mother would not be ashamed of bim.
He meant to earn all the succese aud
position that fidelity to duty could se-
cure. • But he resolved not to be im-
posed 1.11)011. One day as he was doing
some menial work, he was set upon by
on of his tormentors, who asked him
for his card. He turned on his assail-
ant, having deliberately set, down a
bring the caaxl, " and 1 will give you
work." Forty-one years after, when
Mr. Harper's establishment was known
throughout tho land, after he had borne
the highest municipal honors of the city,
and had become one of our wealthiest
men, the person who had received the
card came to Mr: James Harper's esta-
blishment, asked employment, claiming
it upon. the ground. that lie had kept
the card he had given him fortyrione
years before.
ORIGIN OF THE HOUSE OF HARPERS.
With great fidelity James served out
his time. His master was pleased with
him. In a patronizing way, he
told him when he was free he should"
never want for employment. James
rather surprized his old master, by in
forming him that he inten.ded to set up
for himself ; that be had already engag-
ed to do a job, and that all he wanted
was a certificate .from his master that
he was worthy to be trusted with a,
book. In a small room in DoverStreet,
,James and his brother John began their
work as printers. The first job was
two thousand volumes of Seneca's Mor
at. This job wt s given to them by
Evert Dayckang, the leadt*g publisher
of that day. The second book laid the 1 writers on the continent beg 'the Harp -
foundation of the permanent sticcessof ers to introduce theni to the American
the house. The Harpers had -agreed to
stereotype an addition of the Prayer
Book for the Episcopal Society of New
York. Stereotyping was in a crude
state, and the work was roughly done.
When the Harpers took the contract,
they intended to have it done at some
one of the establishmen% in the city.
They found that it would , cost them
morethan they Were to receive. They
resolved to learn the art, and do the
Avork themselves. It was a slow and
difficult labor. But it was accomplish-
ed. It was pronounced the. best piece
of stereotyping ever seen in Nev York.
It put the firm at the head of the busi-
ness. It was found to be industrious,
hon.orables and reliable. In six years
years it became _the great printing house
in New -Vella In 1823, Joseph Wes-
ley Harper entered the firm: In; 1 82 6,
Fletcher Harper was added. These
names constitute the house of Harper
Brothers to this day. Besides personal
attention to bUsiness, the brothers exbr-
cised grtaat economy in there personal
and domestic expenses. John com-
menced house -keeping in the lower
story of a small, genteel house, paying
the annual rent of one hundred and
eighty dollars. One thousand dollars
was what it cost. the brothers each to
live for the first ten years of their busi-
ness life.. It is the custom when they
start a rew business enterprise, such as
the Weekly or the Bazar, to set apart
a capital of fifty or one hundred thous-
and dollars, as the case may be, to be
expended in placing the new enterprise-
= a paying foundation.
• t;
.pail he was carrying, boo ec1 him seve-
rely, and said " that's my card : take
care of it. When I am out of my time,
and Set up for myself, and you need
employment, as you will, cortie to me,
enter the house seldom :leave it. Boys
have becoral men, and they come and go
as regular as the sun. The middle-aged
have become gray -headed. The sons of
men who have grown old in. the service
and have died, step in to take their fath-
er's place. One old man, who has lived in
the vaults for half a century, and has
arge of the plates, and will live no-
where else, who talks constantly about
the " good Mr. Harpers," as he, calls
his old masters; is still hale, hearty and
happy as when a boy he did the bidd-
ing of James and John.
THE cHARACTER OF THE HOUSE.
The uniform prosperity and success
of the house of Harpers for half a cen-
tury shows conclusively that integrity
and honesty are worth something in
trade. The Harpers have kept alreast
of the tines and held the lead from
1826 to this lour. Their mercantile
'repute is without a stain and their hon-
or untarnished. Their imprint on a
beok fixes the reputation, and often
gnarantees the fortune of the author.
Hardly an American book comes out
that is not offered first' to this house.
Eminent authors in- Europe send for
theis: terms. The_ most celebrated
EsTABLISHMENT ON FRANKLIN SQUARE.
The house is an immense iron build-
ing, painted in immitation of white mar-
ble. It Covers half an acre of ground.
It is fire -proof, seven storeys high, and
is one ofethe most complete,, airy, and
pleasant edifices in the city. It has two
frontages, one on Franklin Square, and
one ou Cliff Street. Its apartments are
united by iron bridges thrown across
the court.. The stairways are circular
and are outside the building.,. There
are no openings in the floor for fire to
comniunicate frOD) cite story to another.
The looms are elegant, and well. vente-
bated. Modern improvements for com-
fort, health and cleanliness abound.
.Expensive and curious machinery Ell
thp chambers. The folding, machines,
the presses, the marbling department,
the mysteries of electrotyping, the mar-
vellous inventions by whichscience be-
comes the handmaid of. toil, and -wipes
the sweat curse from the brow of labor,
are among the curiosities shown.
EMPLOYEES.
The movements of the nicely adjust-
ed machinery are scarcely more quiet
and elastic than are the movements of
the six haindred persons eMployed in
this house. Pen, brain, the pencil of
thc designer, the chisel of the engraver,
the skill of the artist, the neatness and
taste of Women, intelligent mechanism,
find here employment. The liberal,
genial, honorable spiritof the proprietors
prompts them to pay the best wages,
and secure the best talent. Those who
public. Two thousand works, three
thousaricl volumes, twalve thousand of
which are original, are the issue of one
season. The weekly and monthly pic-
torials are marvels of success, of ele-
gant typography, graphic illustration.
The house has driven out the vile yel-
low covered books'once so common he
genteel and even Christian homes, by
affording attractive, elegant, and cheep
stirring works of fiction. The Circula-
tion of half a raillion of the Weekly
and Monthly shows at once the demand
for light literature, and how readily
the public will welcome the pure when
it is offered. Two hundred and ten
thousand Harpers' Weekly have been
sold- in One week. Thousands of per-
sons are dependent on -this firm for
their daily, bread- Husbands and par-
ents, brothers and sisters, book-beliers
and agents, artists a -ad authors, outside
of the establishment, in all parts of the
land, fino employment at their hands.
At an.earley day the Harpers opened
a genteel and healthy field of labor for
the women. Ladies of taste and tal-
ent, ntunbered by hundreds, find pro-
tection and good wages under this lion -
°fable roof.

THE NEW YORK PULPIT.
As a wliole, theministry of New
York is able and.greatly respected.
fashionable New York Church calf com-
mand almost any 'talent in thecountry.
Besides this, there is almost every va-
riety of talent in the New York pulpit
—the radical, who makes his pulpit a
political forum, and the well-to-do con-
servative who meddles with. neither
politics not religion. Thetradeis, the
man sharp at bargains, men found on
'change, with the stock and oil preach-
ers abound. Some are in political life,
others are connected with the daily'
press. Some are in literary pursuits ;
some write books, others review their.
An attempt was made some time since
to keen the Sabbath more loosely, and
a New York clergynaan was found wil-
ling to lead the attempt. Ministers of
New York have been found willing to
throw their silk gowns over the players,
and have preached sermons to show the
connection between religion and -the .
stage. Nearly every faith known to
the civilized world has a local habita-
tion in New York, arid a prieskto min-
ister at its -altar.
In the centre of the main floor, rail-
ed in by an iron fence, is a space fifteen
by forty feet, which is the sanctum of
the brothers. Within the enclosure
are sofas, desks, and easy -chairs for per-
sons having business with the hou.se.
Hcre may be seen from day to day the
original founders of the firm, James and
John, and Joseph, the youngest ki o
whom is over sixty, but looking les
than forty, James, the founder of th4
house, -would be a marked man any':
where—tall, well-proportioned, with
dark hair, heavy eye -brows, a pleasant
expression, a, genial Sniile and a kind
wOrd for all. A devout Methodist, he
is a liberal supporter of all good things.
The wealth be has so nobly, earned
flows as constant as the river. When
New York was so badly governed that
neither property not life was (safe, and
the people arose in their might to ef-
fect a change, Mr. Harper was chosen
their standard-bearer, and was elected,
triumphantly, mayor of the city. John
is thick -set and stocky, but not as tail
as his brother. Joseph is thin, spar,
and looks very little like the elder
member of the firm. In the counting-
house during the day may be met the
most distinguished authors, writers;and
artists of the land ; men of letters, for-
eign and native, making it the "Liter-
ary Change" of New York. The whole
air is redolent -with the talent, litera
ture, and taste. Surronnding the or-
iginal members of the firm are the sons,
on whom already the burden of the es-
tablishment rest. They inherit the
urbanity, probity, and thrift that has
made the name they bear so famous and
so honoured. It is no common boon to
found such a house, to flnd it -green and
vigorous at the close of a half Century,
to have a leisure and wealth for repose
or travel, and to be surrounded by
children able and willing to bear down
the honor and business cf the establish-
imINI9TER1AL SPECULAToRS.
Among the moSt excited in stock
markets are men who 'profess to be cler-
gymen.- Oneof this class realized a
snug little fortune of eighty thousand
dollars 111 his speculations. He did
not wantto be known in the matter.
Daily he laid his funds onhis trother's
desk. If anything was "realized," it
was taken quietly away. The broker,
tired of doing -business on the sly, ad-
vised the customer, if the thing was dis-
tasteful to him, or if he'was ainrned
openly to be in business, he had better
retire _from Wall street, aen of this
class often have a nominal change.
They effeet to have some mission for
which they collect money. They PQM
about among our benevolent instituti-
ons, visit prisons or miasion schools,
