To the Editor of the.Nelson Evenik& Mail, Sib,—-Your correspondent of yesterday ("'Mrs GVundy") could not have chosen a more appropriate name than that of a grumbling old woman. I venture to think there is far more nastiness, both of thought and feeling, exhibited in that letter than in anything likely to be seen at the Maitai bathing hoe. . Punch has delineated the cringing shudder of a casual when told that before receiving relief he must have a bath, possibly "Mrs GrundyV' nerves are upset by a similar horror of cleanliness. ' I a<n}, &c,' M. November 21, 1872.
