In Petersburg found bookbinder sick so brought 600 copies in sheets to Smith and Palmer here who are binding them. So book is published. Offered land to both Tyler and Goodrich Durfey for $12,000. Has suits in the Court of Appeals and in the Chancery suit. Self's frolic at Christian's is unkindly exaggerated but will not be repeated. Legislators and electors are coming in. Has delivered Doctor Peachy's message to the governor by letter. Has disposed of the pamphlet intrusted to me by Dew, according to his directions. Thinks Southern Magazine will succeeed.
