Glow provoking it is to be subscriber
to newspaper, and not to receive the
papers at anything like reasonable time
after publication The last paper received
from your Office is dated 14th instant
just eight days ago. Ifsuch is to continue,
you will get few subscribers up this way.

delivered on the down train.
''Do blow up the parties at fault. Touch

be benefited.

twelve days ago, are still on the wing"
