 Dr. Wainwright many readers of THE NEWS in this immediate vicinity are we'll acquainted with the R y. Dr. Vain wright, who was form,r rector of the Episcopal church in this village, and who went out from among us tn more extensive fields of labor in the far Wrst. The Rev. Doctor has recently remov, Il from Palmyra in Missouri to Denver in ( olorado, where he is rector and chaplain of large board ing and day school in what is known there as Wolfe Hall He was President of St. Paul's College in Palmyra, but the friendly relations existing between himself and the Bishop at Denver, gave success to the off cers of Wolfe Hall in their efforts to coax him away from Palmyra. As his many friends here will read his letter with inter- est we will give it below.

 My DEAR MIR. PEAsE-You wl! see by this that have taken one more stride on toward the Pacific. If the papers were not full of the wonders of Denver and all this lofty country,I would write you few line s describing as best could, what see and hear and feel Suffice mo to say that the stories which you read of this land are not greatly exaggerated. 1 send you one of the Denver dailies, from which you will be able to judge something of the place by the business announcements therein contained. l arrived here one week ago last Light. We think we shall like our new home much, though we regretted to leave Palmyra. My relations to the Bishop of this jurisdiction only induced me to leave that place. We are very nicely situated and shall hope to see some our Salisbury friends sometime you especially, us an editor ought to visit this part of our great domain.

 Please say to my good friend Dr. Reid, that mean to write him long, if not ln- tercsting letter soon-the one promised. How greatly it would delight me to see him here in Denver. You cant have him there, to keep, we mean of course.- ED. Excuse me for writing so much, while it was my prn- cipal object to request you to send THE NEWS as at the head of this note.

 Sincerely yours,
