To this advantage of being a distinct art, the art
of ingraving on wood adds this advantage, viz:
that its productions are capable of being worked off,
and accordingly are in the ordinary course of business
worked off, along with the rest of the matter in the printing proofs: in which way,
besides that a wooden block admitts of several
times as many impressions as a metallic plate,
the mode of producing it is about 80 times as
expeditious and, proportionally in proportion less expensive.

As to the question whose this second portrait
shall be, the principles having being already sta laid
down, the particular question mat relative to the particular point is not scarce worth disputing.
