CORRESPONDENCE.
♦ * [We do not hold ourselves responsible for opinions expressed by our correspondents.] Tlie Question Nettled TO THE EDITOB. Sir, — The beßt possible answer to your " Scotch" correspondents is contained in a cablegram cf a few days ago : " Ten thousand Scotsmen on the field of Bannockbum." The only silliness about the contro,veray,.ia on the part of the traitor who is so indifferent about his name, and J who believes that "Scotia's Bard" ever wrote such a word as " Scotch." No, sir, it is only some of the modern expurgators of Burns t who have put such a word in his mouth. We shall soon have Scottish Home Rule and a Scottish Parliament, and then " Wha daur meddle wi' me." — I am, &c, ■-.-... Border Scot.
