laying aside any false pride in the premises,
ve ought 30 thank him for exposing eur faults
even in . luiicroas manner II We felt iudig-
nant at the portraits which be painted. We
were obliged TO couceds that they had . pref.
y firm foundation in truth, and this eonces>
sion has grown SO fast tia, se hardly care
TO find fauh suy longer with his impress

give him . kindly greeting on this ocea>
sion.
But Mr.. Dickens present visit is . mer-
cenary one. He does not come TO zee Us
socially or politically. THE almighty dol
lar i~nmortalized BY Washington Irving,
is lie loa1stone that has brought 'bc." en-
lis second eisAtlan,ic trip. He comes to
Rad TO rs those creations OF his brain and
pen that have for many years delighted rs.
but i, is solely for the dollars that be viii
gather thereby that he comes al all. There
is l.t,le OF .av ctaer sentiment or feeling in
his mind respecting Us. If VT Ike 10 hear
him rea1. tso thousand dollars per night
is the Price Of what is really : satisfying
luxury. If We do not wish to hear hun at
that price, we can STAY away from his
readisrs. The whole ;hiay is . cash spec
ulatioa-a good one FOR him. and probably
for all. Al bis price be can afford to say
how sorr7 be IS tbs, lie misunderstood rs
in 1872, ani how glad he is to see Us again
i'm 1867.
We bone and trust. therefore, that with
this understanding 10 enc will 90 into ec>
stacies over bis appearance in any city or
town which he may choose to visit. He is
protessedly here on business-not TO see and
hear US bu, TO be seen and heard By those
who have the money 10 purchase SO much
qualification.
Welcome, Dickens y Chicago Journal.
