years with Bryant & Hill, N. F. Bryant, Bryant & Aldrich and P. Emory Aldrich as the successive editors and publishers, between whom and their foreman the kindest relations always existed. They recognized his literary abilities, and when legal business pressed them they had no special anxiety concerning the paper or that the help would be idle for want of copy. While in Barre, young Tyler dabbled somewhat in wood-engraving, and without instruction made some very creditable pictures.
In 1849, he left Barre and returned to Worcester, purchasing the Pal- ladium printing office in partnership with Charles Hamilton, but remaining a little more than two years in this connexion. After disposing of his inter- est in the printing office to his partner, he remained some six months in charge of the editorial and business department of the Palladium, during the service of Mr. Knowlton in the Senate and Constitutional Convention of Mas- sachusetts. He then settled as pastor of the Universalist Society of Oxford, Mass, where he remained two years, the society then refusing to accept his resignation. He felt it his duty, however, to adhere to his determination of leaving. He was immediately settled over the society in Granby, Conn., where he remained for six years with one of the most united and active country parishes in his denomination. He left them at last contrary to their unanimous wishes, but circumstances compel men sometimes to a change, when their heads and their hearts are not in unison with the change. Alit- tle incident occurred during his pastorship here, which attests his printing house drill. The churches in Connecticut had an arrangement with one of the denominational papers for a column each week under the head of " Con- necticut Department," the matter for which was to be furnished by the pas- tors, and to be under the general editorship of the State missionary. On one occasion the editor was speaking to one of the older clergymen of the help he got from the pastors, and said to him, " There's only one among my con- tributors whose copy I don't have to fix up in some way before I send it to the printers. Bro. Tyler of Granby always sends his, plainly written, pro- perly capitalized and punctuated, and ready to be put into the hands of the compositor." The reply was, " I should think he might, he was educated in a printing office !"
From Granby Mr. Tyler went to Quincy, Mass., where he was pastor of the Universalist Society when the war broke out. The times unsettled everything, and unsettled him. He came back to Worcester, and in order to have something to do, bought, in connexion with Mr. Seagrave. the Job department of the old office, where he was an apprentice. Since then he has been here, these sixteen years-constant in business-preaching when op- portunity offers-a minute man in his denomination. Need we say more. His work, is it not known, as he is known in all the region ?
WILLIAM A. WALLACE, who came here from Canaan, N. H., about 1839, and went into partnership first with Charles A. Mirick, and afterwards with Joseph B. Ripley, was subsequently foreman in the SPY office from July 1, 1842, to July 1, 1850, acting also more or less as assistant editor for Mr. Earle during a portion of the time, and taking an active part in the " free soil" campaign of 1848 and 1849. After closing his connection with the Spy office, he went to California, where he spent many years, traveling ex- tensively in that new country.
BENJAMIN J. DODGE came to the city about 1842, and became an apprentice to the printing business at H. J. Howland's recently started office in the Healy-Burnside house. He purchased the Palladium printing office in 1846 of Samuel D. Church, and sold out in 1849 to Tyler & Hamilton, since which time he has filled the position of foreman in the same office, under his suc- cessors and for Charles Hamilton, the present proprietor.

Reminiscences of Worcester.
CHARLES HAMILTON, the late publisher of the Palladium, and still the pro- prietor of the printing office, received his first instructions in the art of type- setting at the office of the Barre Gazette published in his native town. He worked on the " Omnium Gatherum" for R. B. Hancock in 1845, and on the Worcester Transcript in the winter and spring of 1846. Afterwards he held for some time a compositor's situation in the Boston Journal office, from which place he came to Worcester in 1849, and associated himself with Albert Tyler under the business name of Tyler & Hamilton. This firm be- came the proprietors of the Palladium printing office. In 1851, he purchased Mr. Tyler's share of the concern, and since that time has, up to the present, most successfully pursued the even tenor of his business way.
THEODORE H. BARTLETT came to Worcester in 1843, learned the printer's trade of Church & Prentiss in the Central Exchange, on the Palladium, and worked several years on the Cataract and Waterfall, and Temperance Jour- nal, was clerk in the Post Office from 1853 to 1872, and has since been em- ployed in various capacities in the departments of the city government.
DANIEL SEAGRAVE came to Worcester in June, 1849, and learned the print- ter's trade at the Spy office. During the last years of his apprenticeship he acted as foreman of the composition-room of the " Christian Citizen," then printed at the same office. He was foreman of the book and job printing de- partment of the Spy office until he purchased that department, in 1861, in company with Rev. Albert Tyler, with whom he is still in partnership, un- der the firm of Tyler & Seagrave, their office being in the same building with the Spy. They are the printers of this work.
