ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Thanks to the late Mr. Midlander-With reference to the postscript in his letter, we should be glad to see in what way he would treat his subjects. The idea hits us.

Y. Z. will see that we have availed ourselves of his communication.

We agree in general with the view of "the Old Fox-hunter" from Bath,-as he will see ;-but his long communication was written with too much of party asperity to suit our pages;-and we perceive, with a few trifling alterations, that he has forwarded the same “ argument” to a weekly print.

Tag is thanked. But his apparently general complaints are too much individualized. Certain men-certain rooms, and certain adornments, have evi dently been aimed at.

We are obliged to B. of Edinburgh for his letter, which, however, came too late even for proper attention, much less insertion. We shall read, when we have jumped out of January.

Incog. will receive our thanks for his valuable parcel through this medium. We need not express our gratitude through the expensive aid of the Earl of Lichfield.

Albert's offer of giving us the returns of racing in France, if treated as he proposes, would indeed be acceptable. We have never yet read an account of a French race that realized the scene, or had a true spirit of description. Will he address a letter to us, apprising us where we may write to him.

We do not know Nimrod's age. We rather believe that it never can be correctly known, "as the registration of his baptism is said to have been burnt at the great Fire of London in 1666."

D.'s Verses " on his favourite dog," are doggrel.

We intended commencing a series of papers on Fly Fishing in this Number, but are compelled to defer doing so until March.

We are sadly in arrear in our replies to several Correspondents, but, in our next Number, we intend answering, like the Great Western. Some of our long-known and well-esteemed friends must not suppose, from our silence, that they are forgotten, or we ungrateful.
