A PLEA FOR RESPITE.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —I crave space to reply to the übiquitous Mr Divers—as a member of a much-suffering public. I am, like a groat many more, not in the slightest interested in what the O.R.F.U. and the O.R.F.L. do to each other, or what they do not want to do to each other, but I do object to, even _ resent, the evening’s paper, which it is one’s delight to read after work, being continuously filled up with a screed of arrant nonsense, about some very possibly imaginary grievances, and I suggest that you charge this gentleman v future and place all the letters in this connection in the advertisement columns. Having completed his letter, which bristled with obvious subtleties (?) and high-sounding, but nevertheless rank, chestnuts, lie possibly preeued himself on the effort. If Mr Divers can contribute an article on some highly interesting subject, then by all means let us have it; but please, Mr Divers, consider for one moment the readers of your letters, and stifle any further desire on your part to persist in this crude attempt at oratorical denunciation.—l am, etc., Old Ninety Per Cent. September 12,
