SENSATIONAL TWADDLE.
! Sib, — -Some person «who dates -hi* letter from hero, (which is ai'alsehood to' 1 begin with, at I am sure there is no one in this place capable of writing such " bosh"), has -sent you a most ridiculous report»in jihs issu^.pf thel2th October, 'of thaeearchfor a Fobb child, and the finding of the same by the Constable -stationed here. In the whole " yarn" there is about as much truth as a.grain of. wheat in a buah»l otf chaff. Theehild was certainly out one night, t>ub wat net er a quarter of a mile or more from home, and the constable (imply did what any other constable would have, done, vis ; — looked for her, and from aILI can .hear ia very much ancoyed at the nonsense written about him ; all that about the Tiours of herd 'tiding -and the ardour of an African explorer &c, is eimply, ixi plain 'English^ invention. As lam the only pewon in Harapipi connected with the press, I get the discredit of writing such twaddle, for which 1 am not at all ambitious. Therefore I beg all those who are touohed with the -cacoethea to itiok to theiiruth aod to date their letters from the place they live at, and mind thair own business.—l am, <fee, Xoua HißiriPi Cobkispo** DBNT» October -22nd. '1875.
