We wonder if it isn't Mr.. Mauzy who feels blank,
instead of Mr.. Wayt? That ''recent ruling, and
the l4tA amendment" doesn't seem to have proven
ted Mr.. W. from qualifying as notary public but
something, perhaps the RECEIVING payment from
the subscribers to the Spectator) prevented Mr..
M. from doing so. We will eharitably suppose,
however, that the latter gentleman's sympathetic
feelings for Mr.. W., in his loss OF blanks, had
something to do with his not qualifying.
