Emollient cannot be a constant reader
of the Avis if he were, he would know
that Caustic "has not always received aid
from such other writers to the st. CroiX
Avis as have alluded to him" Our CORE
spondents and we ourselves have on several
occasions "sublected his statements to in
vestigation," but we have never on such
occasions observed that "rage" which, &C.
cording to our Correspondent EmolIient,
must be attributed to "his infirmity of
temper" We are extremely obliged to
our correspondent for the late Major Lang's
valuable statistical paper. His statistics
very nearly bear out our correspondent Els
statement giving - Q miles (not 69) to
this island. We had made it out to be
1873, our authorities being Oxholm, Horn
beck, Bergs0es S%tatistik and here we can
we'll afford to let this matter drop.
On the Police-Inspector question we
differ entirely from E., but as we have be-
fore this, when the plan of a reorganization
of the Police was before the Council, enter
ed into that question at some length, we
shall not now repeat any of our arguments
in favor of the scheme with one Police
master or Inspector for the whole island,
but only remark that the creation OF such
an Office with the consequent organization
of our Police and Military by no means
involves an additional outlay for "ou al
ready overburdened community; - but, on
the contrary, a saving Of about 100000.
In conclusion we would beg to remark
that it would seem rather strange that our
correspondent, who can appreciate our
dispassionate manner of dealing with public
questions, should have been led to apply to
a writer, who may differ from him in opin-
ion, or even make q misstatement, such

JUSTICE.
The public is about to lose the services
of a very valuable public officer, and the
community a very useful and worthy
citizen. Mr.. Quin, late Inspector of
tive offer in a similar capacity, leaves
Antigua for the Danish Island of Saint
Croix, where WE sincerely hope his worth
will be suitably appreciated. During the
short time he filled the Office Of Inspector
of Schools with us, we never had a more
efficient officer, nor indeed we may conf
IDENTIFY say, one who performed his duties
SO thoroughly, and so we'll. 1t is very
much indeed to be regretted that in our
transition stage, with the changes in con-
temptation in regard to a system Of educa-
ton which is to embrace in its provisions
all the Islands of the government, arrange
ments could not have been made to con-
tinue at a fitting remuneration the vaIua-
bic services of a man of Mr.. GUMS attain
ments. He will take with him to his new
scene of labour the best wishes of the
community for his future welfare and that
of his family. Mr.. Quin, who has frequent
ly appeared as a public lecturer, gave a
very interesting and learned discourse we
ara inf,rn,o1 n n Wa1oocdou loot Of +ha
Court House on "the flint fossils of An
tigua." We were unavoidably absent on
the occasion, and we have been d~isappoint-
ed in receiving a report which ws ex-
pected. The lecture was not numerously
but very respectfully, attended, and all
present we learn were highly grati6ed.
Owing to absence from town, the above
communication was received too late for
earlier publication.-ED. Ay.
