11330Hill Road Thursday'. No date but on paper watermarked 1855. 3pp. 12mo. 55 lines neatly and closely written. Good on lightly-aged paper. Addressed to 'Mr W. Shoberl.' An excellent letter giving an experienced and knowledgable view of the state of the mid-Victorian British booktrade. Redding begins by stating that he is 'indeed concerned to hear the statement' Shoberl has communicated to him. He wishes it was in his power to forward Shoberl's wishes. 'The Downward tendency of our present literature and its continued deterioration by the utter disregard for any thing on the part of the public but that which any body may do with the continual competition as to price among the booksellers have utterly destroyed authorship. The American looks to costing nothing for copyright reprinted here as of English authorship reduce the chances of obtaining employment very low indeed. I feel the times too much myself not to sympathise with others. There is not a boarding school girl whose diatribes do not ascend in the market better than those of an educated person who has had long experience. The prospect is gloomy enough' and Redding cannot help him. 'I have no business connections out of the old way and so far from finding my present cause a prosperous one I look to the future with apprehension. My life with 50 years of adventures is nearly ready but I almost despair of doing any thing with it though I have records of so many well known characters to display.' Redding remembers Shoberl's father well 'and when you speak of friends gone off the stage of existence I can assure you I feel the same'. In the final paragraph he again expresses a desire to assist Shoberl if he can and he expresses a hope 'that things may soon take a turn' with him. Shoberl did gain employment in the book trade first as assistant to the London publisher Henry Colburn and then as a publisher in his own right. Hill Road, | Thursday'.

Nichols writes that he 'forgot the Principal Thing' he meant to say on putting 'the hasty Letter . in Mr <Eddness> Parcel' which is to thank him 'for the Offer of Mr Carte's Letters'. He will 'certainly make an opportunity of introducing from them any Extracts' that his recipient will 'point out' or if he will lend him the volume it will be 'carefully returned'. The number of pages the extracts may take up 'more or less is of no Consquence'. He ends by asking him to 'Pardon this Postscript to my former Letter'. Place not stated. 26 July 1825. unknown

1795Whittington Stoke Ferry 15 Nov. 1833. Four pages 4to fold marks discoloration some damage with minor loss of text. "My Dear Sir/ Pressed as you are by more important business it demands apology from me to intrude any foreign matter on your time and attention - Your wonted kindness is my least & only apology - The business of <malting> in which I am here engaged is very pleasant & I will add lucrative so far as it goes underlined from so; but as you are doubtless aware it does not go far enough underlined from it:- in other words it leaves too large a portion of the year unemployed - Now according to my notions the interval betwen May and Oct. is too great for Holiday purposes and yet I have no specific means of filling up this hiatus - To be sure I could as some have hinted fill up my time with the sale of coals & other articles which may be brought up to my very door by a navigable river; but then I should interfere with the young Salmons who have recently since the failure of their father set up in this business and to take the bread out of their mouth however indifferent they may be to me is what I own I could not do that I am now occupying the very station which but for misconduct not not their own perhaps they once occupied page 2 themselves - What I wish to consult you on is this. A good Farmer's paper is wnted - The Farmer's Journal never so good as it might have been made is now merged in Bell's Weekly Messenger; a huge mass of Tory materials badly arranged and evidently conducted without a particle of Agricultural Skill - It is like some other things of the kind you & I have known: a mere mercantile Speculation. Bad as it is it is the best I may say the only farming paper we have - Surely something of the kind might be advantageously started - I wish you would mention the subject to our friend Chadwick or Richd. Taylor who prints several of these Weekly Papers and let me know if I can be of any service still living in the Country of course in such an undertaking - Mr. C. and I had at one time much conference about <> Editn. of the Examre. - In broaching the matter to you I should wish for your co-operation & assistance - Don't you think such a thing would be more likely to take than the Magazine you spoke of & inserted I should fear the <E. of Arch.> would damp the public appetite for this description of knowledge - Do not think for one moment I am urged by necessity underlined from by to strike out another line of business - My Income is amply sufficient for me & mine: but thetruth is page 3 I see no reason why if I can earn in 6 months a maintenance for 12 that therefore underlined I shd by idle for the remaining 6 - All I wish is Employment with of course a moderate & but a moderate underlined from first moderate remuneration for such labour as I may be able to bring into the undertaking - My name is of no value but I own it would acquire excision honor by being associated with that of Loudon - either in this or in any other literary inserted speculation _ Do not think me presumptious in harbouring this Idea - I think we might be mutually serviceable to each other - Of this be assured - The hope & the wish to render you underlined service operate fully as much as the desire to serve myself in this matter -/ I thank youfor the trouble you have had about Howden's Gate <> - I recd one underlined set of the Irons last monday: but wanting another there being two underlined gates to fit up I wrote to Cottam & Hallem stating as much & also requesting them if possible to cast the part by which the rack is screwed on the back of the gate underlined from on an Inch narrower - My gates being barely 3 inches wide at this part & the irons being 4 inches wide - I will settle the cost when I next go to London page 4 There are no secrets in this Lre - Perhaps you will not object to letting Mr. Chadwick see it as the shortest mode of proceeding - From either him or you I shall be ahppy to hear an opinion on the subject -/ address panel/ Give my best regards to Mrs. L. & your Sisters: in which I am cordially joined by Mrs. T. . . ."
