Ed. TELLER We saw in your pa
per of the 29th of October the article
"From Lady, and signed "B." 1t
is possible that the autkoress of such
charming letter as that which appeared
in your paper can be so Indifferent as
to conceal her name. She is cruel
simply signs herself B-why it might
he Buggins, Bobbins, Bunker or Bed
win or thousands of others beginning
with the second letter in the alphabet.
Stay---is it possible that Miss Brad
don can have coudescended to write to
YOU paperY But no--the thought is
absurd, still the article is so full of
real interest so exciting! taking in
the minutest details of the lady's pleas
ant trip north, that we have reason to
believe that the authoress is something
out of the common. You ought and
so ought we all to feel truly thankful
to the lady for having condescended to
waste her valuable time in writing 10
SO an obscure little paper as the TEL
LER for the amusement OF the poor
and isolated people of Camas Prairie.
In short, We have all become so used
to inferior articles that it takes US all
our time to understand the unusual ele
CANT article Of the. The lady we
are glad to hear enjoyed the trip north
very much, she then goes on to describe
it in glowing terms. She says "after
having arrived at the top of the hill
we passed the fertile valleys, passing
large fields of grain which were beirg
thrashcd and carried to the large gran
rise" Would it not be impertinent
of us to suggest the improba bility Of
.. finding fragrant valleys at the top of
the hill" but this we will not press as it
; may be wrong, but without wishing in
the least to appear contankarous tow
= ards the authoress we simply wish 10
: say that when she saw the ",dfgc
fields being carried into the large
graneries" she witnessed wonderful
2 sight Surely the lady throws into
the shade Gulliver who saw some
E wonderful things, but were a one like
r that. She then. continues her charm
t ing descriptions of the numerous place,
she passed. Arrived at Moscow the
( lady attended singing school kept by
e Mr. Chapman she says 'they wanted
t me to sing which | enjoyed very
:, much" Does the lady mean she en
n ioyed her own singing, if ST, we con
! not help thinking it rather conseated
: of her, it is hoped for her sake that
y she is not the only one who enjoyed
!, her singing. She then arrives at Pa
i louise City we will describe it in hel
d own language 1--WE seemingly ar
5 rived at the jumping off place, bu
getting nearer its edge we beheld be
low the city, sliding around it we ar
er rived at the bottom" 1t is Difficult
here to understand whether she mean
\, sliding around the Jumping off place O
the city, as applied to either it make
We We equally absurd sense, why the lad
need slide at ali we cannot col
OK ceve, as any one who has been to Ps
er louise City will have found capita
road all the way-ether sliding is
favorite amusement of the la6y's {
rd else she speaks so very tigura, iVel
ms that we cannot understand her. l
ne continue. "after resting our tea
and thanking them for their kindne
ale we continued our road " hat a h
man lady she thanks her team f
OFT their kindness, such politeness
nd dumb animals is rarely met with
lie but stop-the lady may mean 81
ter thanked Mr.. Ewing and his peopI
log in that case we cannot help pointil
~" out that she has made rather serio
yer mistake in the English grammar, II
