Blaine offers his congratulations to his correspondent upon entering the field of journalism and offers only the advice to make his newpaper "absolutely trustworthy" since journalism is a "tiers etat of political power in America." He believes that swash-buckler, reckless, large-typed" journals shall fail among respectable people.
