    HINTS TO THOSE WHO WRITE FASHIONABLY. -- We have been favoured with a copy of the following characteristic note which was received by a lady from the Duke of Wellington: -- "London, July, 8, 1843. -- Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington presents his compliments to Mrs. -----.  He really regrets much that he has not been able to read her letter.  He entreats her to write in a plain hand, in dark ink, and in few words, what her commands are." -- Nottingham Herald.
