Notice to Correspondents.

Olt> Gato, (Whata What^).— The promise to publish your letter was inserted in our last iisue by mistake. In ihe h.xrry of br?me>3 we ove»looked the fact that you had not enclosed your name. The designation "' OH Haud" is nor. sufficiently specific. Wa hare spmi a good runny names of tno »peoi*B ia our »imo, and it might be hard to distinguish you fn.ra the lot. Just forward your name as a guarantee that there is wine foundation f >rrhe MateiuenU contained in ynur letter Th* nluor is a per fectly safe confident. He is the repository of hundreds of secrets of far more iiup nta- cc than youw, and not even the thumb-screws or t'to rack would forco him to di*. lose. Jemima.— Don't ttard it an;? longer. Your vour.g affections ought not to be trifled wuh. If the young man dtvs rot comn to the point at ooce get your biggest, bro'her to call up-m him and request an "cxp'vxiaiioD, I< 11114. fails you can enter an action t.»r breach of promise. It is perfectly scandal ue th.-t young men should be permitted to b.-have in such a manner. This comes of lore courtships. Fife years billing and cooiDg is too long altogether. You oujht to have hooked him long ago. Being a Benedict of some experience you can take our ndvice. Hitch him up at. ome. Entiap him into a de laration when he thinks there's no one aroun I, and then let the eld man or your big brother suddenly start up from a corner nhor . of court©, he has been deeply engrossed in romeall absorbing subject, and »c zing bot.> your hands, fxc'.aim •• Bless je my chee-hil- heo." Tbere i-» only one other t.lw, and we never kn<*w it to fail, "where the young man was at all smitten and was merely dodging about until be could make up hu mind G' t some other fellow to come hanging around. You can easily manage it. In fact, on a pinch, you might contrive to hare half-a dozen fellows on a stiing. We never kn«w a gin have any difficulty in managing that. Some of the girls, we knew, "in the days vre went gypewng a long time ago," used to heve twice as man* fellows turning up in rotation just when you leant expected 'em, and didn't want 'em at all. It's a way they've got. Don't re' urn his letters by any means. In the event of a brrtch of promise case they'll I ok well in print, or the threat of publishing all the tender things lie said might eharre him into coming to the point Play your cards carefully, Jemima, like a sensible girl, and depend upon it, you'll have no difficulty in fixing him. We shall be happy to ■ nswer any further questions, and you can lay your bottom dollar, upon our assistance to the death. Only keep cool, and eschew violence. Some of your sex often spoil a good hand by ruffling up, and taking to offensive weapons. Broomsticks are all vary well in their place, but they're thrown away upon •ome people. Some men are so mule-headed that they can't appreciate 'en. Soft-sawder's generally more effective. Try it. You oan always resort to the broomitick if things come to the worst. Besides if you once hook him iv, you can serve him out after marriage for all the trouble b© bus given you. It will bo a balm to your feelings to make him get up o1o 1 winter nights in his shirt, and hu»h the baby around the room. Keep up your spirus Jemima, and go in and win.
