CLASSICAL EDUCATION.
(TO THE EDITOR) Sir,- I beg to thank Mr Stubbi for hit explanation, which, being translated, is that the word " Cartbaginia " waa merely a slip of the pen for " Carthage"; and I would recommend him to veoure a more reliable pen ere he again commits himself to print. A pen which can perform such a rare acrobatic feat should surely be placed in the British Museum. Regarding Mr Stubba' invitation to come and view his " valuable writings," I reply that 1 know what a red herring is and the use that is sometimes made of it, and although the term " Carthaginia " aroused my curiosity, I take very little interest at present in the Carthaginians. I am, etc., Middle- Age.
