SIS. BoYcE-Dear SIR After so long de-
laying, | send you a line to let you know that
| have received the Freeman regularly since you
became its Editor, and am well pleased with its
political position especially in ondoavorug to
consolidate all the friends of Freedom in the
approaching Presidential Election, and Judging
from the State ticket your abors have rot been
in vain; yet hope you cannot claim all the
honor of having brought about 80 desirable
result, but that the other journals of the State,
that have been contending for other great inter-
ests, have concluded it would be safe to cast
the wool upon the water and take for their first
plank that great one idea Of human liberty
Truly Yours, C.S.
