A REJOINDER.
) (TO TUB BDITOB OF THB TTMBS.) • Sib,—A local " brillUnt" in the News of inI day professes to recognise in me an " old friend < in a new form." and contains the surmise that " the result of the Makarewa election" would be my most appropriate mm de plume. Whether I am an old friend in a new form, or not, you and I know ; let the News guess again. I took no part however—either as candidate, agent, or elector—in the last Makarewa election. The well-merited hit when I gare the News on Tueeday must have penetrated the tough hide of that journal, because it evidently recalled the deep, and perhaps still tender, wound inflicted on the News by said election. You may remember how unwell the News got on that occasion, and that the quantity of bile which flowed from the editorial pen in consequence waa wonder ul to behold. —I am, &c, An Elbctob of Otaoo. December 25,1872.
