ORIGIN OF PUNCHINELLO.
A Memory of the Days When Harper's
Weekly Was a Power.
In the days when Harper's Weekly
was nt the height of its popularity and
influence it commanded the services of
the foremost Illustrators in America,
including the cartoonists. Every once
In awhile a group of these artists
would become dissatisfied with the
Harper parental control and would
leave to establish an independent Illus
trated paper.
Having squandered their substance
in riotous printing, these artists would
come to themselves and return to the
Harper home, where was bread enough
and to spare. No fatted calf was killed
on the return of such prodigals, but
Henry Mills Alden, tlfp veteran editor
of Harper's Monthly Magazine, assert
ed that the house of Harper never held
a grudge against any contributor,
whether artist or writer, who left to
try other pastures. Such was the ori
gin and such was the end of Punch
inello, a comic cartoon weekly which
first appeared in New York city on
April 2, 1S70.
In colling attention to the fact that
the first number was dated the first
day after Ail Fools' day, Punchinello
remarked: "This is cheering, since
thus It is manifest that Punchinello
leaves all the fools and Jesters behind
and is therefore first in the race for
the crown of comic laurel and the
quiver of satiric shafts." During Its
short life—less than a year—It was
entitled to that honor.—Cartoons Maga

Pliny ("Natural History," volume 10,

The Chinese (Worde's "Eastern Trav
