GORE.
[From our own Correspondent.] To write a news letter under a difficulty in the way of an absolute want of material for inspiration reminds one of sweethearting days, when I used to be devided between the two issues of what to write or not to write, with the advantages in favour of Auld Lang Syne. In fact the only incentive write at all is the want of anything better to pass the time. Rather an interesting problem, at least to one of the unemployed, has been the cost, to the country incurred in the removal of our old railway buildings. But this is forbidden ground —at any rate he would be a venturesome contractor who would give a ten-pound note for the lot as it stands on the railway trucks, beautifying the landscape like a white elephant, till it pleases the powers that be to remove it to heaven knows where. I hear the bell ringing for the departure of the train, and must close, with a promise to continue in our next.
