Misther Editor,—An' it's notmoighty complaisant the'feel, so the'don't; its the Minishthry, I mane. Ther's goan to be throuble. In the aidyekasbun line ther' is little agreement among thim; the bould Shtout is fur shtickin* to the thick an' thin, carryin' out in the mosht sevare manner ay the secular part ay the business, but he does not seem to appraysheate the fact that the present system is be far too coshtly. In the native daypartmint ther'll be some bother; I'm afraid me frind Ballance is far too yieldin wid thim shcamps ay natives who are throublin the openin ay the King Counthry. Begog, ay he makes up his moind to do as he seems dish posed to do, the divil an end will he ever see of the difficulty. The givin an takin business is not the way to dale wid thim rapshcallions who appare to beaigur to do all the takin, but divil a give are the incloined fur. Wan ay the faireshfc Mines mio the kullony iver knew is the prisent wan, more power to him, and I'll make bould to pray diet that he'll thrate the Tfaims dishtrict fairly. His heart is in his work, and he ividently fully raycognises they amportiaiie ay the mining indushtry to the advancement ay New Zajland. It's now an' agin that tho knight in the cabbynit throws the workin' ay it out ©' gear, an well man, ye can't concaive the ruckshons that sometimes arise whin the wily Sir Julius crosses his weapon wid the Dunaydin Praymeer. It was naeself J^JJ^Jj^wfelS^B%l^r"tlTfo^ore new sbcames," sez Shtout, "an no more o* yer borryin." "The divil a borry, allannab," replies Vogel, "its only feenancyin' I am," an' so the go on. Yer Northern mm are daycintly behaved; Tole is as quite as a lamb. More anong (furrin), whin I can tell ye ay a row perhaps—Yours shtill disengaged, Shaun the Post.
