These are emily specimen of the letters received at
this Office in one day, showing the amazing popularity
and increase Of the Herald. The attack made upon
our character and business by the rva press OF Wall
street has been among the principal Of widen
ing and extending our popularity. We have received
many letters from persons, ordering the Herald, who
are melted thereto by the attacks of the press. Yet
with all this feeling an favor, and the possession
Of means to carry out views we are persuaded
that we are only in the beginning of great and go-
rous career of reformation in liberty morals, religion
and science Yesterday we paid up the last payment
due for our News Boat Establishment, by adding to
il boat which had been built for the Express but
which that concern could not pay. lowe nothing in
this world to any person. My double cylinder press,
my steam engine my types, my newsboat my whole
establishment are all my own am my own Trus-
tee.
