II IS always ultimate good, and Is productive OF
honest results but cannot award that praise (you
are accustomed to receive for being puncnlleus in all
OF your conduct in life. For instead of sending me
the Herald until October, you were in hasty pud
ding humor, and struck me OIL early IN September the
50 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

Dear Sir,-l have been some time out of the I'm
pire State, and of 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-
tentoHs strides 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 filled with all the sweets of the sober thinking
times that then ambed gently along, may now be
penderoas tome, showing Its face once year, or
shrunk to The slender dimensions of penny ballad
may have turned out song, perhaps turned outa
sermon. Is the Herald" in the land of the living yeti
mean the Daily Herald" Doesit still possess the love
and esteem Of its numerous and respectable patrons; or
has it gone the way Of all paper in this
free and happy land, where stealing ten dollars or va
a,ing contracts in petty amounts Justly visited with
paiss and penalties but where swndllng and rsbbing
TO the amount Of millions is rewarded with legislative
sanctions TO demonstrate their immaculate virtue to
the world! Has IT. the Herald like other paper affairs,
stopped specie payment and taken the form of mere
shnplasterf Pardon me. ! don't believe any such
thing or would moi, now do, solicit you TO send
il 10 TO this place. know nothing about H. its
price now, but arm very anxious TO become once more
irs reader; and 40 soon as@ knew ysns~ tssms shal
willingly and promptly comply with them. Send me
tse Herald Daily to Louisville (Ga and oblge your
very humble servant and friend.
