TO CORRESPONDENTS.
A, Grew. — Perhaps if our correspondent read "Sound" instead of "Island," which is nn obvious typographical error, ho will be better able to understand 'bo sentence complained of. We regret we cannot nfford our sharp correspondent the information desired as to tho latitude aud longitude, but as ho seouis to have ' ' travelled " ho will not lose much on that account ; and we may remark en passant, respecting his knowledge of geography— " How muoh a fool who has been taught to roam ■ Excels a fool who has remained at home." We can fully apprecia'o tho wonderful mental acutencss that can discover a typographical error, and would recommend A Q. to have no mercy on the next "mare's nojt" ho may stumblo over in his iravols R. S. Wynn — Your lotter shall appear in our next.
