I have published one long notice, (written by myself,) and the two short notices sent me from you—as you have doubtless seen by the papers I sent you.—All have been printed in the editorial columns.—
But I have not yet received my copy of the Dictionary.—I have called several
times at Mr. Newman's, but they have either not had any
copy in Russia binding, or were averse to giving me
one.—If convenient, upon the receipt of this, I wish you would envelope a
Dictionary, and put on it my address (as below) and send it to
Newman's—labelled "to be called for."—Let it be Russia
bound—black, or some other dark color.—I shall publish the notices
received the other day—and from time to time, what others you send.—
I still have the note you wrote me, embodying an order on Mr. Newman for a Dictionary— which order I will give him, when my copy arrives.—
