A SOUTHLAND LADY'S OPINION.-I tbioli that one of tho things New Zealand excels in Ii ■ the conduoting a first-class Newspaper, arid many eurprlsed remarks 68 to the Otngo Witness come from my friends " at Homo," who still feel a little aa if colonial literature was a long way behind. ■ Indeed, to them the Witnesß Ie more like a Magazine than a Newspaper. ■ ■ " T AM a constant reader of your paper, and have r X a high estimation of the admirable way in , which it is got up."— V.

" T ENCLOSE amount due for Witntos. I hope X you will send Witness on and never atop it. , I grudge to lend one, I long so to devour it myself. " T CAN truly state that I know of no paper more X suitable for a family than the Otago Witness. I have seen all the leading papers in London and Australasia, and although sorao are more elaborately got up than yours, none of them in my estimation are equal to you* own for all-round general information. Ido not wish to be accused of flattery, but I must 6ay I think it a credit to its conductors. It 3 matter is pure and wholesome, and there is something to suit all classes ol leaders in its pages.—J. 35., Dunodin." i" ' TOOK SCOTT,' Otsgo Witness: Sir,—Your «.» columns afford a.great amount of valuable information on fishing topics, and are of very general Interest."—J.
