A POLITICAL INTERJECTION
(To the Editor.)
, Sir,—ln your issue of the 23rd instant, your reporter has made it appear that I rose to a point of order in the House, and stated that someone was dead on tha Opposition benches, I could hear him breathing. I saw your reporter, and stated to him what I had actually said, and asked him to correct it. The words I used_ were. "There must "be someone dying over there, I can hear him breathing his last. I would ask you, Sir, to be good enough to have this correction inserted in your paper. I do not think that I have done anything that warrants me being held up to ridicule, for, as you know, it is an impossibility for anyone to hear a dead man breathing.—l am, etc, o-ti, n n, D- M'DOUGALL. 2oth October.
