to say, he simoly touk their words as uttered, | and if these words differed so uewhat, or at all, frou the impression which the witness intended to convey, the fault is not his.

For information he quotes frow the letters as follows .—

**Looker On” says I should have known bet- ter than to say that the dog was roasted in the Baptist Church. The words, Mr. Editor, which [ stated in my evidence were:—‘* They roasted the dog in the old Baptist Church,

‘¢ He mistook my meaning !”

‘No matter how incomprehensible may be the speaker's utterance, Reporter must write its meaning in full. If a paragraph wi'l not contain it, foot-notes must be su, - plied, and sometimes illustrations. _

Axssin, if an individual faints while on the witness stand, it will not do for the re- porter to plainly note the fact in common expression. No! He must handle it gently, and say: ‘‘ The witness, at this juncture, succumbed to the feculent atmos- phere which invaded the dingy court-room owing to a lack of ventilation. Becoming exceedingly delicate, he was assisted fron the apartment by two tall, robust police men,” etc., etc. If you write, ‘* witnes- fainted,” the consequence is: An elde brother of that witness, in correction, wil write a letter containing —unintentionaily, perhaps — ‘‘more razor than meaning.’ adding theretoa ‘P. S.,” giving the defini- tion of the word “‘ faint,” and an “‘ N. B.’

absurdity of it, and hereafter when a bul: appears the chancesare ten to one that thes will be correct if they attribute such to the

speaker and not to the Reporter.

Six,—Will you kindly allow me a small space in your journal in reply to an article inthe King’s County Advertiser, ovr the signature of a ‘‘Montague Man,” relative to a trial, or a scene as he describes it, which took place at Montague on Christmas Eve.

‘Montague Man” says, **When I enter.d the Coart Room, Campbell was pleading with the Magistrate's to allow him (the De- fendant) the liberty of defending his case. Then an altercation took place between tie J. P’s and the Defendant, which led to the swearing in of special constables.”

‘(Montague Man's” opinion of law ant eqnity and how cases ought to be conducted in Court, compares favorably with the trio wo were deliberating on this occasion— that the offender, or defendant, had no right to plead or to be pleaded for; that he was tuo notocious to get a fair and an impar- tia! hearing. ‘‘Montague Maa” even in- vites the villagers to meet eu masse next

eries, ou the eve of his departure for Ottawa, ashort time ago. That the said Superin- tendent, in calling on the guests to fill their glasses for the toast--the health of his honor the Minister of Marine, etc.--ex- patiated on the great advantages to this Province of having such an able man as the Hon. J. C. Pope in the Dominion Cabinet. Could shis concentrated essence of meanness and duplicity do more !—Com.
