A VOLUNTEER ON "EXPERIENCE."
(To the Editor of the Evening Stab.) Sib, —Mr "Experience" must be a very old man, and, according to his own account, bis utterances are worthy of the greatest attention. His experiences are most undoubtedly remarkably extensire, but I think his memory must be getting somewhat mixed when he cannot recollect how many cavalry regiments he served in. Maybe he has made the acquaintance of the drummer's daughter, and that probably has caused a slight confusion in his brain. Have your say, old man, by all means, but don't let your jealousy get: the better of your judgment. Why take up old grievances ? You will only expose yourself to ridicule. I don't like to see old age laughed at. Please, let the public know in your next how many years altogether you have served your Queen and country.—l am, &c, Volunteer.
