We are in receipt of a Communication on, "How to get an Education," which covers three pages of foolscap paper, closely written. The writer proposes that the public shall "hear" from him again on this subject. Doubtful. We presume from the partial reading we gave the document that its author received his education at a "High School, where they neglect spelling, and other important branches of English Education for the "higher branches."
If the writer knows "How to get an Education" let him get one speedily for he needs it badly.
