"THE BASER SORT OF WRITING MEN.
(To the Editor of the Evening Star.)
Sib,—There is on the Thames a low mean writer, who appears to glory in abusing private gentlemen in the choicest Billingsgate, under the 'worn de. plume of " Red Cap," " Bunboy," " A Party " or "J. D. Wickham." Ido not know what "D': stands for in the combination, but we will assume it to mean, Daft, Dark, Daub, Dastard, Debase, Debauch, Decay, Defame, Defile, Dsgrade, Demagogue, Deluder, Deprave, Devilish, Devilkin, Dolt, Drivel, Dizzard, Disturb, Donkey, Dack, Displode, Dishcloth, Disgust, Dog. —Yours, <Sc, ;
