This is the reverse of our system of increasing game by shooting the old cock-birds. It is a system would aid Malthus rarely. Nota bene, the day before yesterday I signed the bond for £5000, with Constable, for relief of Robinson's house. I am to be secured by good bills. I think this journal will suit me well.

A correspondence, original and scroll, extending over a period of three years till January of the current year, between the said Mr of Ballantrae and , Under Secretary of State; twenty-seven in all.
