Letter Received From Assistant Attorney General of Illinois.

•Messrs. Clark & Hamilton, Dear Sins': I received in yesterday evening’s mail two copies of your paper containing the very kind notice of my appointment. I take this opportunity to express to you my deep appreciation of your very kind words, and to thank you for your very kind consideration. It is pleasant, indeed, in this life, to receive evidence in this way of an expression of appreciation. It has been my effort, since I began the development of my land in your county, to work not only for the improvement of my own land, but for the advancement f the interests of the neighborhood and of the county in all lines of progress, and I do not feel that my effort has been in vain, when I receive such a generous notice in your splendid paper. Again thanking you, and with kindest regards to all of the friends, permit me to remain, Very sincerely yours,

C. F. MANSFIELD.
