The Graspers of Featherston.
To the Editor or the Standard. Sib, —Y ur co’.rs-f'Ondt ut “ U Tempore O M-'-res," lias g-.-t on the wrong tack this fim». I can inform him that I have many chains of fencing and always feel my stock at my own expense. I nuke no attempt to deprive those will nny have, say one cow, the privilege if grazing it on the flats (where they should be kept.) Herds were never intended, ml ought nut to be allowed, but there are people who do ail they possibly can to prevent the others even existing. Yes, they are a nice lot, some cl them, you should take a trip down here some time and hear the his'orv of a few related. I'm thinking about jolting down a column or two for yon some time ; it will do your paper no harm, because the parties that it w.mld touch would never think of buying one ; they get all their reading (and drinks too) on the cheap, those who cau read. I shall give you the history of a bottle of whiskey, in a few day*, this will be very interesting. I am, Ac., Pro Tempore.
