abundant, extraordinary indeed. but SINE

A CoRREcT MEAsUKE.-Whtn we assumed
last week that the attempt to palm off upon
us "valuAblc agricultural treatise" that
which WAS but piece of pure, straight adj

we did no one an injustice.
Had there been any lingering thought that
we might have been uncharitablc. the letter
that we have received from the firm, with its
gross lnsolcnce and two-penny sarcasm. alb
solves us from all obligation to treat with
courtesy or consider with charity. 1t is the

Is contained in the following two sentences,
taken from the letter that we have received,
viz. Did you ever hear of u newspaper
