has opinions about the conduct of the

EDITOR TELLER:-In your paper Of
the 18th inst, under the caption Ills it
&c." notice that Col. Perry is said to
have attributed his defeat at the White
Bird fight to the conduct Of Chapman
and his volunteers" There were, all
told, eleven volunteers in that fight. /
was one of that number and muet say
in justice to myself and companions,
that Col. Perry has done US great
wrong if he has made such statement,
as the facts do not warrant him in so
doing. There was not to my certain
knowledge volunteer who showed the
white feather, or turned his back to the
foe, until after portion of the men un-
der Col. Perry had commenced their
ignominious fight.

Journalism in Canada is not devoid of enter
prise. For instance, there is the Toronto Mail.
An immigration agent, Mr.. Whellams, having
been persistently assailed for offenses OF which
he felt himself innocent, called on the manager
of that amiable sheet and inquired why that
was thus. The manager replied that he knew
nothing at all against Mr. WhellamS, indeed
knew nothing at all about Mr. Whellams, but
was compelled to attack him in order to injure
his official superior, the Minister of Immigrs-
ton, The genisl manager also added that the
Mail had to stab somebody under the fifth
sell" Mr.. Wbellams after and in spite of this
nsa the bad taste to sue the Nail for libel, and

A MURDERoUs SEA-FLowER-One of the
exquisite wonders of the sea is called the
opeiet, aud ia about as large as the German
aster, looking, indeed, very much like one.
Imagine very large double aster, with a
great many petals of q light green color,
glossy as satin, and each one tipped with
rose color. These lovely petals do not lie
quietly 10 their places, but wave about in
the water, willie the opelet clings to rock.
How innocent aud lovely it looks on it's
rocky bed Who woald suspect that it
would eat anything grosser than dew or
sunlight But those beautiful waving
arme, as yon call them, have uee besides
looking pretty. They have to provide for
large, open mouth, which is hidden down
deep among them-so hidden that one can
scarcely find it. Well do they perform
their duty for rtg instant foolish little
fish touches one of the rosy tips, he is
struck with poison as fatal to him as light
Ding. He Immediately becomes numb, and
in moment stops struggling, and then the
other arms wrap themselves around him
and he is drawn into the huge, greedy
mouth, and is seen no more. Then the
lovely arms unclose and wave again in the
water.-Catholic Standard.
