and probably away these long winter evenings,
which without intellectual pleasure would be nole-
rable Among books, papers, and other literary para
phernalia, Your most exquisite and bewlichng little
Herald, for the first two weeks, stood conspicuous.
Since then we have sent day after day 10 the post
office for it, but in vain. know you to be whose
chief study has been human nature and of course,
are aware of the consequences of "hope deferred"
have experienced them now for the first time tit ia
sickness of heart which nothing can alleviate but
the presence of the desired object. Can you tell me
where the fault es-whether in yourself or in the r
regularity of the mails and if in the former, repair
without delay if you value the welfare and happiness
of one who is

SIR became subscriber to the Herald during
my stay in the city of New Y ork In the summer of
1886, which was 10 be sent to me from the LIST of Oc
eber of the year to Oct. 1885, the dustan being
put down at the time of subscription. Now, sir, you,
after the rules of your cash system, had right to
strike off the rolls, provided | did not, at the ex-
plratlon OF my subscription year, march up with my
rhno at the time detailed.
| admire your system of cash payments, because
it is always an ultimate good, and is productive of
honest results but cannot award that praise (you
accustomed TO receve) for being panctieus in all
Of your conduct in life. For instead of sending
the Herald until October yeu were in hasty pud-
ding humor and struck me off early in September the
3D. OF that month"; being the last dates from my high
ly esteemed editor, James Gordon Bennett Now,
was this an oversight, or have knocked you down
youdld your good friends the Haggertys, without
proper understanding of the matter. | hope so. OBJ
serve lost q days Of reading the Herald. which pa
per being at the time above par and its intrinsic value
great by means of the delinquency aforesaid and the
per cent, for cannot put you below the damages
on sterling exchange. Now, Sir, you may reckon
the loss and place II 10 my credit the current
year. Again, | credited you al great hazard, and
you did not reciprocae, although gave tolerable ev.
dence of my being myself leash system man."
for il will be remembered if the Haggerty Thomas
Hambln & Co. had calaboosed you, much of out
door observation would have been lost to the read
ing world, coming too, from a man Of great penera-
ton and Of fearless expression of thought. Upon the
whole, Mr.. b. have been treated little cavalierly
and must resllate in the only way new in my power
by sending you ten dollars, subscription for year
10 the daily Herald for SELF and my neighbour A. NJ
+. both al the Woodville post Office.
make the remittance in two five dollar notes Of a
bank of our town on the Fulton bank Of your city,
which they will pay, as know that they have the
funds of the Rail Road Bank now on deposit TO meet
their notes. OF this there IS no mistake. l warrant
and defend you in any thing you may say TO them
if they refuse l am confident they will not, howe-
ver-nols verrens, | hope you are very well and
senoso. ! believe there is no paper in the city Of
New York half SO candid, hal so useful, as your He
raid, and the few months that have been deprived Of
It's reading, has been quite deprivation.
In playfulness,
Your obedlent servant, P.W. +.
Has the Fulton Bank paid the notes7 II SO, you
see we have some creditable banks in Mississippi
who do not draw on false pretences.

JAMES GORDON Bennett, Esq,
Dear Sr,-l have been some time out of the En-
pre State, and of course know little of the details
matters and things lying IN Western Babylon the
Great. Within the last year two the spirit of
change and innovation has travelled with such Por
teHtoes strides over this country, that know not
newspapers have not become quarterly journals andf
what in nay time in the city Of New York was daily
sheet filed with all the sweets Of the sober thinking
times that then ambled gently along, may now be
penderoas toms, showing its face once a year, or
shrunk to the slender dimensions Of penny ballad
may now have turned out song, perhaps turned out
sermon. Is the Herald in the land Of the living yeti
mean the Daily Herald Does still possess the love
AID esteem Of its and respectable patrons;
has gone the way of all paper Establishments in this
free and happy land where stealing dollars vie
latng contracts in petty amounts Justly visited with
paiss and penalties but where swindng and rsbbing
TO the amount of millions IS rewarded with legislative
sanctions TO demonstrate their Immaculate virtue to
the word7 Has it, the Herald like ether paper affairs
stopped specie payment and taken the form OF mere
shinplasterf Pardon me. | don't believe any sach
TO me to this place know nothing about IT, or it's
price now, but arm very anxious 10 become once more
Its reader; and as soon rs know your terms shall
willingly and promptly comply with them. Send me
the Herald Daily 10 Louisville (Ga) and obge your
very humble servant and friend.
