Daguerreian Journals Lost.—The following Telegraph Dispatch was received at the Daguerreian Journal Office on the 13th.
"What is the reason of your not sending me my Journals? W. S Gear."
The following was our answer forwarded per mail on the same day.
Daguerreian Journal Office,
New York, March 13th, 1851.
Dear Sir:—Your Telegraph Dispatch came to hand. In answer,—I do send a Journal directed to you as often as published. The last was mailed last Friday, i.e. the February 15th number, that being the last out. I find it takes nearly as many to furnish the Post Offices as my subscribers; however, I try it again and send one to-day.
Respectfully,
S. D. Humphrey.
W. S. Gear.
We wish that the persons, wishing the Daguerreian Journal would furnish us with their names—("no questions asked") and they can have a copy forwarded,—thereby our honest subscribers would receive their Journal regularly. We do know that we put the Journal in the Post Office—but we don't know why so many of our subscribers do not receive them. There is no doubt but that our Journal is valuable, and should be in the hands of all, yet it is with us as with most brother editors, we are unable to furnish copies gratuitously.
