Chapter XXV: Letter XVIII: New York,

_My Dear Sir_,--I thank you for the hints you have been so kind as to give me in relation to my next edition of the "_Voyage_," but as that edition has already gone to press, it will be impossible to avail myself of your attention until the sixth impression.

Very respectfully, your obedient servant,

JOSEPH S. MILLER, ESQ.

We are not partial to Mr. Reynolds' style of chirography. It is a common mercantile hand, in which the words taper off from their beginning to their end. There is much freedom, but no strength about it. The paper good, and wafered.
