We quite agree frith tor?.contemporary that the question" should have been left alone, but. if it were put before the public, we held that the koy-note of the difficulty should have been indicatod, and that by ignoring this the public were deceived and misled. We will say further that the constable who revealed to our contemporary the private and personal discipline of the Department of whioh he is a servant, ought to be dismissed from the force, unless the communication was a confidential one, and not intended for publication.
