dali has not been able to pay ALL the debts
Of this establishment. It3was in an awful

ineficiency Of my predecessors.
Mr.. Kendall has net been able TO effect an

the transmission Of the mail. The Camden
and Amboy Company has been extremely
saucy. This Internationally arises from the
fact. that il does business on borrowed for

resolved to open rail road through N. Jer-

VIII, these my hest views Of the condition
Of our common country and our relations
with foreign nations, leave you to the gui-
dance Of your own Judgments. and the light
afforded BY a good and kind Providence.
cannot leave you, however, without one word
more. For some time past, have been re-
ceivipg a little, neat, penny paper from New
York. called the HERALD. 1t is uncommon
" smart. and tells its whole mindson every
subject. This is exactly what have always
done myself. 1t is the only honest method
Of getting through the world. The editor,
kbelieve, is some fellow by the name Of Ben
nett. who ONCE wrote me letter blowing up
| Amos Kendall. : could not attend to him on
that time, hut IN further inquiry, find that
ne was once Editor of the New-York En-
auirer, when it 6rst came out for me. and ge-
nerally wrote twO-thirds of that paper for
which Noah claimed and got an office. Ben
nett never came TO Washington. seeking an
Office. for which my Kitchen called him "a
I'D fool" I recommend every member
Of Congress to O.der the Herald during the
session. They will be pleased with it-for il
has, daily, world OF Information on politics,
stocks, fashion, police, accidents, news, mar
kefs. and every thing in every line.
Trusting that you will attend, one and all.
to the hints have hereby given you. sob
