I could tell him something about marshes that would not redound very much to his credit. Ronald is a confirmed Grit, and so also is another loudmouthed officer at Annandale, who is never tired of abusing the Government.

Nothing could be fur- ther from the truth ; and no one but an unprincipled slanderer would attempt to cause ill-feeling between the people of Georgetown and the people of Annandale.
