ABSTRACT

Sir,—I shall look forward with considerable interest, as doubtless will most other readers of your journal, to your promised article upon the above subject. But pending its appearance I would suggest that we must be just whilst we are critical, and that we shall do well to consider whether the Editor of Vanity Fair has not done or commenced to do a good service to auditors in the article in his paper to which you are about to reply. And in passing allow me to suggest that you are a little hard in reproaching him for not having read a report which appeared in the Times of the 10th inst. before writing his of the 6th.
