MOSGIEL BAND BAZAAR. TO THE EDITOE. Sir, —The bazaar in aid of the Mosgiel Brass Band now being over, I feel it my duty to expose the methods of a certain class of people who thought they could hide the meanness of their souls in “lucky bags." Some of those people who had the impertinence to fill bags (thereby getting credit for helping the band) ought to he ashamed to look their fellow-creatures in the face, all sorts of house rubbish and soiled books being sent broadcast over the district, simply breeding disease among decent folk. Hoping that in future no organisation in need of help will resort to "bags.” —I am, etc., Oxe of the Victims.
The rarest stump in the world, the British Guiana one cent of 1856, was found by a schoolboy in British Guiana. There was on space for it in the boy’s album, and he sold it for Cs. It afterwards went to Scotland, end was bought by the late Bhillip von Ferrary. Bast year it was cold by Mr Arthur Hind, of Utica, for £7343—a record price.
