GAME LAWS.
To (he Kditor of tho Hebalp. Sir, —■Mγ. Tinrlt's explanation respecting the rn t taken bj* tho Arclimatisition Society in framing the Game JLnvr ia certainly very candid, but not vuiy satisfactory. I cannot see why the above Society ehoull at nil interfere with tho settlers, and compel them to muse thuirland game preserves, and then generously permit the owners and their sons to ehoot on the ei.closed land only, and whan they, the .Acclimatisation Society, thinks fit. But ihf settlers will not perm! , ", of such interference, neither will they nllow ihuir crops to be dotitroyad by game, any more than hv ruts, v/ithjut endeavouring to destroy tho dostrovoVs. tiuj the Acclimatisation Society is not so much to blame as the moinbeis of the Hruse of Representatives, who must have cither givan the Game Xjaw tlieir open or tacit support. — I mm, ic, I»[ P.
