He bad been to the office of his printers to expedite the preductionof his " Miscellanies," his first work published in book form in London. In this, says Miss Martineau, almost every other word was altered by the author. The manager said to the author, " Sir, you are really very hard on us with your corrections; they take a deal of time." Carlyle observed that he had been " accustomed to this kind of thing, that he bad got works printed at Edinburgh," &c. &c. " Yes, indeed, sir." interrupted the piinte:, "*• are aware of that. We have a man here from Edinburgh, and when he took up a bit of your ' copy' he dropped it as if it had burned his fingers, and cried out, *' Lord, have mercy on us 1 Have you got that terrible man to print for ?
