UNDER THE FLAG.

TO THE EDITOR . SIR, —Having been born and brought up under the British flag, I have ever understood it to be the Britisher's privilege to criticise either adversely or otherwise the doings of public men without at all desiring to be offensive, as I am accused in Mr Wilson's reply, e[ and as I am not fond of entering into personalities, I cannot do as I would had Mr Wilson used a non-de-plume. But I might say I did not seek the filtering beds in the Town Board office, or I might have found them. Re nomination —one might possibly aspire to something worse than gaining a for ;' seconding resolutions, so long as they ■ are moved from the acceptable quarter, and of putting up the hand when he gets 7 the "griffin." I would like it understood that these remarks do not necessarily refer to Mr Wilson.—l am, etc., Ratepayer.
