The following humorous and graceful letter, written by lawyer friend of the GRAPHIC to firm of ellen ts, explains itself. The names of course, are omitted:
 DEAR ToM, DICK AND HARRY
 1 received formal and imposing looking document by m7t5 this morn ing which purported to be signed by "all three of yez, but I had doubts as to it's being genuine, and so 1 return it herewith for two reasons;
 First, Because you all see me every day and hence would have no occasion to waste your valuable time and labor and expend large sums for stationery and postage stamps necessary in correspondence.
 Second, Because there was a pal pablo error in the amount of the 'piece of exchange" enclosed My bill rendered was for fifteen dollars and your sight draft only calls for five.
 Common labor, it is true, is plen- tiful at about $15 per month, and at that rate, tbe actual physical labor of drawing the contract (say one hour) would be worth about 5000, 000.05. But lawers, doctors, civil engineers and other professional ''experts" have habit of charging people for what they know Cor think they know-it's all the same to the victim) and not for what they do. In your case my judgment a fee of $25 would be reasonable, but in order to avoid anything like riot or breach of the peace, and to discour- age profanity, l thought proper to place it at $l5. I am confident that any firm, who enjoyed the pleasure of your intimate personal acquaint- ance, would say it was easily worth $150.00 an hour for me to sit and listen to you three relate what you don't know about farming; and I am sure that 1 heard you for at least ten hours on that subject alone, yet never orce drew my gun but sat and Smiled and looked pleas ant" all the time. Fortunately it didn't drive me to suicide or per manent hard drinking, and so you escaped a big damage suit at the hands my of widow and administra- tor

A Communication.

| Editors Kennebec Journal:
l do not feel that it is in very good
taste for an outsider to make sugges-
lions in regard to the local affairs of
your city. but there are some matters
in which the people of the outlying
towns have direct and personal inter-
est
OF course your merchants appreciate
he fact that anything that contributes
TO the convenience Of doing business in
your city, contributes to their prospect
| ty. Sometimes matters which may
| seem of considerable Importance to
people who come from the country
towns with their own teams for the pur-
pose Of trading, may not seem Of equal
Importance to the people of the city;
indeed. may often seem of very small
consideration. | do think, however.
that few more hitching posts in and
about your city would he appreciated
by its outside visitors. and contribute
materially to increase its country
trade. In saying this. / do not wish To
lie understood as complaining that pro-
vision has not been made already in
this line. on the back street by the
depot some excellent accommodations
are provided; and nearly opposite
Young's drug store on the east side OF
the river is another convenient place
for this purpose, fitted up very nicely
with feed boxes. Aside from this, how
ever your opportunities for hitching
purposes. so far as visitors from the
country towns are concerned. are linz
tied. 1t is true that some few hitch
posts exist on Water street. but they
are nearly always monopolized by your
'innumefable caravan" of 10 cent
teams and the delivery teams Of local
merchants. Undoubtedly your 10 cer.
teams are a great convenience to the
people of your city. but they make 1t
extremely difficult for the unfortunate
visitor from the country district who
desires an opportunity to hitch his
horse in the vicinity Of the Water
street stores.
| do not know, of course. what pro-
vision it would be possible to make in
your city for the Increase or facilities
for the hitciling Of teams, but do
thoroughly believe, and | think the
merchants of your city will agree with
me, if they take little pains to in
vestigate the subject. that the country
trade which comes to Augusta. natur-
ally in preference to other places. wouli
be materially increased if more con-
veniences of this kind ware provided.
