To decrypt a cipher text encrypted using keyed substitution I'm looking for decryption of this cipher text which was encrypted using simple substitution using secret key. I have already spend a lot of time on this. However it should not be that tough. So I think my procedure may not be correct.

The question is something like this:

The secret key (a permutation of the English alphabet) was generated from a key letter and a keyword. The key word is an English word (names of cities and countries are allowed) having no repeated letters. The secret key is then derived by writing the key word beneath the key letter in the alphabet; followed by then writing the remaining letters of the alphabet in cyclic order after the key word.

For example,if the key letter is 'm' and the key word is LAND, then the secret key is:

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z L A N D B C E F G H I J K M


All punctuation and spaces were removed from the plaintext, which was then blocked into groups of 5 letters prior to encryption.

The cipher text is:

We know the following are the letters of the English alphabet, grouped by letters whose frequencies are approximately equal.

The letters in each group are listed in order of decreasing frequency:

Group 1:   e
Group 2:   t a o i n s h r
Group 3:   d l
Group 4:   c u m w f g y p b
Group 5:   v k j x q z


The  most  commonly  occurring  digrams  in  the  English  language,  in decreasing order of frequency, are:

th  he  in  er  re  on  an  en  at  es  ed  te  or  ti st


So I started with frequency analysis and some guesses and could find:

T was encrypted as L
H was encrypted as U
E was encrypted as P

A was encrypted as V
N was encrypted as S
D was encrypted as T

R was encrypted as A
S was encrypted as B


Am I doing things correctly?

I seem to be stuck after doing this. Are there any techniques that I get try to get this solved?
When trying to decrypt any substitution cipher, my first step would be to count the number of times each letter occurs in the ciphertext, and plot the ranked letter frequencies.  Doing that for your ciphertext yields the following plot:

P: 84 ##########################################
B: 73 #####################################
V: 60 ##############################
K: 59 ##############################
E: 56 ############################
L: 52 ##########################
S: 47 ########################
A: 45 #######################
U: 44 ######################
O: 26 #############
T: 24 ############
Y: 21 ###########
Z: 21 ###########
Q: 19 ##########
F: 15 ########
C: 13 #######
N: 13 #######
R: 12 ######
H: 11 ######
M: 10 #####
D:  6 ###
X:  6 ###
G:  2 #
W:  1 #
I:  0
J:  0


(If you suspect you might be dealing with a simple Caesar shift cipher, looking at the same plot sorted alphabetically can also be useful, since you may be able to spot some distinctive patterns like the A/E/I triple peak that can reveal the shift amount.)

Comparing this plot with typical English letter frequencies, the general shape looks very similar, suggesting that this is indeed an monoalphabetic substitution cipher.  The next step, then, is simply to try a few substitutions and see if they make sense.

For example, we might guess that the two most common letters in the ciphertext, P and B, stand for the plaintext letters E and T respectively.  This guess yields the following partially decrypted message (shown with the ciphertext in lowercase, and the corresponding candidate plaintext below it in uppercase):

The first thing you should check is that there are no unlikely letter sequences like TTT that might indicate a wrong guess.  In this case, there aren't any, so we can assume for now that our initial guess that P=E and B=T may be correct.  (If we did find some weird-looking letter sequences, we might want to try swapping the guesses around, and seeing if P=T and B=E would yield more sensible-looking results.  We could also try assigning either P or B to the plaintext letter A, which can also be pretty common, etc.)

Once we're reasonably confident about our initial guesses, we can see if we may be able to infer any other ciphertext/plaintext letter pairs from them, e.g. by spotting likely words in the partial plaintext.  Conveniently, the most common word in the English language is the definite article "the", which just happens to contain both T and E.  Looking for patterns of the form T_E in the partial plaintext above, we can see that several of them have U as the middle ciphertext letter.  We may thus tentatively guess that U might stand for H in the plaintext, and try another partial decryption:

Again, we should check that the partial decryption looks plausible.  With the plaintext letters T, H and E tentatively assigned, one possible next step would be to look for plaintext patterns of the form TH_T, which might correspond to the (also fairly common) word "that".  As it happens, we find two such instances, both with the ciphertext letter K in the middle.  Looking at the letter frequency plot above, K is the fourth most common letter in the ciphertext, just slightly behind V in the third place, so it's entirely plausible that it might be the encryption of A, which is generally counted as the third most common letter in English on average.  With that guess, the partial plaintext becomes:

Next, we could try to look for more partial words, or we could simply guess a few more common letters.  The most common ciphertext letters that we haven't assigned to any plaintext letter yet are V and E; both seem to be occurring in places where one might expect a vowel, so we might tentatively guess that they stand for I and O in either order.  Of the two choices, V=I and E=O yields a somewhat more likely-looking partial plaintext:

Now we can spot the repeating pattern ATIO_, where the following ciphertext letter is always S.  The suffix "-ation" is quite common in English words of Latin origin, so we may guess that S=N, giving:

Now we're starting to have enough decoded letters that, with a bit of imagination, we can start making out more and more full words in the plaintext.  For example, near the end of the plaintext we have the sequence THE_TATION, with the undecrypted letter L in the middle.  Just about the only plausible English phrase that this could stand for is "the station", suggesting that L=S.  Again checking that the letter frequencies look plausible, we can try this and get:

Now, we can take a guess that the beginning of the plaintext, SHE_A SSITT IN_TH E_E_A ITIN_ _O_SO _ETHI N_ might read "she was sitting there waiting for something", giving us F=W, T=G, A=R, Q=F and Z=M.  Plugging those guesses in, we get:

At this point, it should be pretty straightforward to fill in the missing bits of the plaintext, giving us:

(If you're curious about the source of the plaintext, a quick Google search will reveal that it comes from chapter 2 of the book Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery, published in 1908.)

Oh, and the keyword?  Well, we didn't really need it to decode the message, but since we now have (almost) the whole ciphertext alphabet, we can write it down sorted by plaintext letter to get:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
kmnopqtuvwxyzser?albcdfgh?


where the two question marks stand for the letters I and J that don't occur in the ciphertext, as they correspond to the rare plaintext letters Q and Z.  Guessing that I=Q and J=Z, we can see that the keyword is "serial", and the key letter is N.  (Of course, the keyword "serjal" would also work in this particular case, but as far as I know there is no such word in English.)
