KIND WORDS.

We have received from a gentleman
in another county a letter which is
deeply appreciated, not only because
of the kindly sentiments it expresses,
hit because they come from the heart
of gentleman whose integrity of
character and whose upright and
sympathetic life, among his fellows
have won for him the confidence and
the highest esteem of all those who
know him.
He says, in part in his letter: 1.-The
manly way in which you gentlemen
have stood up in your paper for Gov
Blease against such heavy newspaper
odds commands my most profound re-
spect and admiration; and also the
want of such bitterness in your artl-
cles as has done the other side harm. .
In the kind of campaign which has
been forced upon us this year, such
expressions as these, coming from the
gentleman who gives utterance to
them, bring a great deal of cheer, and
The Herald and News shall continue
to strive to be worthy of them.
