Hiss Mary Gaunt, novelist, in a letter to "The Times," quotes a proverb that "the frontier is bard on women and horses," and says that Australia would have not be on won without hardships. She adds that nowhere does individuality tell more markedly than in the immigrant, and those unprepared to imitate the earliest settlers, to risk something, and to incur some deprivation for their own future would do better to stay and starve comfortably in Old England, The letter, justifies Australian farmers for declining married couples with encumbrances, and asks whether an English mistress enszaginc a cock -would not dismiss her on the discovery that she was likely to become a mother.
