"MoA." AND THE IRISH QUESTION.
TO THH EDITOR OF THE EVENING POBT. Sir— Your conrespondent " McA.," although he has not yet learnt to conduct a oontroverpy without " calling names," has at any rate found out that for information one must go to accredited sources. To the Preliminary Report of the Agricultural Commission he accordingly gooß, and perverts itß tenor to an extent that induces mo to ask him whether ho ever read it? And if so whore did ho get it ? and if ho knows it only at secondhand, would he like my copy? I ' never saw what he calls the ' ' Boßsborough ," and should be obliged to. him if ho would lend it me, that I may see whether he has treated it as he has treated what he calls the "Richmond" commission. My apparent dogmatism is merely the result of brevity. Newspapers won't let correspondents occupy space with qualifications, apologies, and hints.— l am, &c, W. F. Howlett.
