EMPLOYMENT.
♦ Iv another column we ask our readers to compete for a money prize, in the shape of a literary effort. "We feel suie that they are able to furnish some most interesting tales if they gave their mind ta it. 'J he competition is open to all,, and the stories may be gay or grave, the lighter ones we think would be likely to go best. Our old colonists might narrate to their children deed* of earlier days, that would be bound, to attract attention, whilst we have: among us, settlers who have passed through many and various phases of life, which are bound to have their amusing or serious sides. The com ■ petition will be more interesting, than some might think, if it is taken up in the spirit we believa it will be. The longer evenings are drawing near, there will be more time to spare, and the subjects are not coafined It is unnecessary to remark that the language employed muot be temperate, and that no discussion on religious subjects will be accepted. The stories will be published, one, in each following issuo, for the three best.
