NATIONALITIES.
TO THE EDITOB. Blß^l observe my old friend " J.M Otama" has;. been opening his mouth and again putting hiB 1 foot in it. He calls Gladatone a John Bull, now I say he is a thoroughbred Scotchman. If net the G.O.M. is a perverter of the truth, and likewise his brother the Conservative M.P. Then he | says Sir John Moore the hero of • Coruna, was an Irishman* Now it happens that the hero waa borne in the Trongate, of Glasgow, and brought up in the same city. The next thing J.M. attempts, Ihave no doubt will be to exhume Shakespeare and Bobbie Burns, and transport their immortal ashes to the Green W * C.U.G.
