the ability to make truth appear falsehood." Such qualifications, indeed, possibly get a man into the position of acting-chairman of a Harbour Board, but they would not enable him to nspire to an editorship, either at £5000 a year or even less money. And Tewaley need noi; fear that anybody will offer him an editorship at £5000 a year. To judge by his foulmouthed and ruffianly language, while speaking of the Press, the only literary employment for which Tewsley is qualified would be to compile a new vocabulary of Billingsgate. Go to, O Tewaley, and mend your manners. Some of the Pressmen of $ew Zealand, whom you vilify, ifre so far above you that you are not worthy to black their boots.
