H@- In our exchanges generally we
find articles quite as complimentary and
kind to the new editors of the LEDGER as
we can pretend to deserve. AS we are
willing to be known by our works rather
than by the praises ofour friends, however,
and as these are often more the result Of
kindly feeling than of true merit in
ourselves, we will not reproduce them.
But we beg leave to return our thanks
for all these favors, and to assure the
writers that we fully appreciate their
compliments, and shall be proud if,
hereafter, we shall be able to prove that
we deserve them.
