ENGLAND OR BRITAIN.
TO THE EDITOR, SIE, —la your sub-leader in this morning# isiue of the Temdka Lbadbb ooour# this sentence, “ There can be no doubt but that the two subject State# of Ireland and Soot, land have a great deal to complain of in this respect.” Now sir, as a Scotchman, I wish to point out that Scotland is not a subject State. This fact ii so patent that it is not necessary for me to do more than merely refer you to the history of the country and the articles of union with England in support of it. The fact that a Soottiah King (James I) ascended the English throne, and that after the union of the Parliaments the conjoined countries were to be known as Great Britain speak for themselves. I am, etc., ’ A Caledonian. Temuka, April 29 th, 1890.
