MACKEY v. KEENES.

(From the Bath Journal and General Advertiser.)
Extract from Mr. Mackey's letter of April 24, 1827, which
accompanied the Bill of Costs:

" I am not aware that there is any charge in the Bill
which ought not to be there: if there is, it shall of eourse
be taken off. I have not charged a farthing but what I
have paid, or have undertook to pay, and I ern ready to
make an affidavit of that fact. lam in great want of
money, therefore I hope a settlement will not be delayed."
