TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Hamilton. — Wo don't like some of the lower animals, and newspapers prey on our species (profession) .Isis (Rangiriri). — Contributors must give their names and addresses in all cases, but may addanom de plume whero a question is to be answered in these columns N.C; (Tararu-road). — Too personal G.S. — The Observer is not an agricultural paper.

Send a small boy up to gather 'em Kaukapakapa.— » Coixntry correspondents must condense closely. Remember,brevity is the soul of wit C.T. (Tauranga). — Prny find some other vehicle for venting your pointless personalities Pedestrian.— Keally too deeply mornf ul; Not suitable for oar columns. Try our contemporaries; St. Thomas'. — D ahem — hang it, this is not a religious organ. Our piety is too sincere to obtrude it on an unappreciative public Bushman. — We hold over your letter of the " Lambing-down in Hobson* street," pending further inquiry Subscriber asks will the Observer be published, on Good Friday ? The Observer will be published on Thursday, but on every other Friday in the year it will appear in time to be devoured along with the fresh eggs and morning coffee of its 10,000 readers ; in fact it will be published on the Judgment Day if it happens to fall on a Friday, and the week after that if our subscribers yell for it as they do now. You shall have your Observer, and so shall posterity, as long as they have 3d.
