>, i [Advebtisemext,] * to the eihtob or the Samoa times. S' Hi,—Please allow me space in your next issue to reply to some remarks in “ Fair Play’s” last letter concerning r myself. Like many others who rush in- [ | to print on tin- slightest provocation, ho , 1 has discovered, —when too late to hide (the fact from the public,—that he has not , hruins enough to fairly refute my arguI inents, and theivfore indulges in personalities and had grammar, i “ Fair Play” says that I ought to find i much more congenial occupation in disi posing of my wares and pocketing the ■ profits, than in discus-in ■ • - * ,of which lam too ■ “ Let the gall’d Jade wire e, our withers ’ are uuwrung.” “ Fair Play,” not having any wares to dispose of, nor profits to pocket, is evidently annoyed at finding that 1 have still time at my disposal to study State affairs, and to express my opinions grammatically. “ Fair Play,” who has been meddling with State matters until ho has become grey-headed, betrays a lamentable ignorance of grammar when he charges me with being too erii/mfli/ ignorant of State affairs. A scholar would have written iriihiit/i/ too ignorant. Put what can you expect from such a highly educated, irreproachable firm as “ Dismal Jim and Co.” 1 have no doubt ” Fair Play” would like to have some profits to pocket to keep himself in starch and white clothes instead of having fresh salt sprinkled on his tail to keep up appearances. When next he does dirty work for other people, and that is the only means he has of keeping up appearances, lie should first get a few rudimentary lessons in grammar from his dismal employer, if that gentleman is capable of imparting them. If not, ho should leave letter writing alone, and look for some better occupation than making a fool of himself. A« fa. 1 am, itc., A Ueahei: of the Samoa Times. I .'toil SALK 11Y PHIVATE PURCHASE.
