Correspondence.
To the Editor of the Examiner. Srr,-—-Our letter of the 28th ult., has elicited a characteristic reply from the Sécretary for the Fish and Game Pro- tection Society. He is foolish to lose his temper; and ungrateful to us for the friendly service we rendered him. His last production shews unmistak- able internal evidence of the aid ofa more intelligent writer than himself. sut,though not so glaringly andjfredicul- ously vulgar in style as his tirst letter, his sentences are still exceedingly clumsy and incorrect. ‘ Codfish got here some- how, the how and the wherefore best known to himself.’ This may be “simple English,” but we would not call itelegant. “Likely a North Briton, who, having ‘no honor in his own country,’ migrated to the colonies to better his condition.” This, if not a lucid, isa “hanging sentence.” The “North Briton” is left suspended bes tween heaven and earth having no oc- cupation in the above sentence. Then naturally follows :—* Socially he occu~ pies a position a good deal similar to Mahomet’s coffin—suspended between
heaven and earth, 7. e. all the aspirati-;
ons of the one with the low tendencies.” “ Aspirations” are hanged with the ‘ North Briton,” having no connection, as aword with its neighbors, that we can even guess. And se on, sentence after sentence, ad nauseam. But we were nearly forgetting that S. D. F. had commanded us to leave his langu- age alone and had informed us that we could not “ improve it.”” Well, wead- mit we cannot improve his style, for like Artemas Ward’s wife, it requires “reconstruction.” He calls that an “ un toward accident’ which enables a man on coming to this free Canada of ours, to rise from an obscure position, to one of trust and honor. Verily, this is high toryism with a vengeance ; and a doc- trine which if acted upon would give num-skulls and incapables, a_ fee simple to places and positions, for all time. Is this the age and the country for a privileged class ? Areability and industry of no account? “These kind of fellows must have their fingers &c.” Think of it, Col. Davar, and bless your stars that you havesuch able assistants as “ these kind,” and don’t despise your volunteer ally, who, while physically strong bimself, yet, with a savage bru. tality, and in defiance of all the laws that govern decent and civilized society, gloats over the fact that his supposed adversary has what he calls “game leg,”’ Who, but a dastard coward would resort to the contemptible expedient of'allud- ing to the bodily infermities of his op- ponent, when beaten in fair argument ? This mode of warfare, coarse, cruel and mean, has not even been resorted to by the “ Zulus’”’ or “Niggers,” and is only fit to be employed by a cowardly pol- troon who would fire at his enemy from behind a bush or “ old barn door.” 1 wonder if I'm mistaken inmy goose this time.”
He calls us a “ fellow,” a ‘“‘cad,” and “carrion,” and then triumphantly in- forms tho public that he is our ‘su. perior.” He certainly is good authority; for who could be more impartial or who better, and more internally ac- quainted with the “ Secretary” than “S$. D. F.?’* And in the interest of the “ Fish and Game,” what question of more paramount interest could arise, than the social Sstatua of 8. D F.? The fact that we are socially and intel- lectually beneath him, must be very gratifying to your readers. We, in our ignorance, imaginé that both 8. D. F. and ourselves were factors with which the public had no concern, as regards this “ burning question.’ But it seems we were wrong, for 8S. D. F. thinks dif- ferently. Wemadeno personal attack upon 8. D. F., nor will we do so now. We leave that mode of literary warfare to such writers as mistake low scurril- ous abuse for witand argument. What we may, or may not, know privately and personally of S, D. F. is beside the mark. We simply deal with him, as a writer who has put himselfin a redicu- lous position unasked by the society of whom he is Secretary. We regret that he has forgotten, or never known, the decencies of journalism in trying to drag the private affairs of private citi- zens into the discussion. We are not egotistical enough to suppose that the public are interested in our personal appearance when they read our letter, we simp|y expect them to judge ot it on its own merits. But the public are deeply interested in the preservation of Fish and’ Game, and also in the ques- tion of Provincial, versus Dominion rights to the possession and control of our river fisheries. This latter ques- tion is one of constitutional law, which has not yet been considered, but per- haps the day is not far distant when some wealthy citizen, or citizens, will give the Supreme Court of Canada an opportunity of deliberating upon it.
hankiny you for your space, and promising not to trouble you again.
yours truly, Coprisu.

Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES CATARRE.
Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy.
T. J. B. Harprxa, Esq., Brockville, Ont. :—
Dear Srr—It is now two years since your ‘‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced tome. Ihave waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good obs true.”
I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head.
A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper Yours truly,
W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
