GUY FAWKES DAY.
To the Editor. Sir, —Having seen several original effusions, writt n in the form of verse, in your columns lately, signed “ Yahse,” under various disguises, I see no reason why I should bide my light under a bushel—only for goodness sake don’t give me the credit of being the author of the following beautiful stanza in commemoration of this eventful day ; This is the day which was the night When ill men did conspire To blow up King and Parliament With dreadful gun-powd-ire. —I am, &c., Poet. Dunedin, November 5.
