We have several letters from our correspondents, for which we offer thanks. To C. H. H., of Andover, who wishes to hear more about Bill Keeler, we can only say that as soon as convenient, we will attend to his request. Several of our friends have sent us correct answers to the puzzle in the June number of the Museum. The following deserves insertion. Our Providence friends will see that a piece of music is given, as promised. We hope it will please them, as well as our other readers. _North Bridgewater, June 14, 1843._ Mr. Robert Merry,――I have taken your Museum for two years past, and I like it very much. I think that the story of the Siberian Sable Hunter is very interesting, and I think that the June number is very interesting; and so I thought I must answer the puzzle that is in it. I have always studied them out, and have thought I should like to answer them, but I never have until now; I shall give the answer in the form of an acrostic, and if you think it deserves a place in your Museum, you can put it in. _Bass_ is the name of a fish much admired, _East_ is the point of compass the wise men desired, _Lathe_ is an article used under mortar, The _Table_ is furnished with food and with water, _Easter_ is a day that is kept by the church of Rome, _Sahara_ is a desert a great way from home, _Hatred_ is a passion much to be deplored in the mind, _Arts_ have done much to enlighten mankind, _Zebra_ is a pretty animal, but not very stout, _Z_ was the letter which I had to guess out, _Abel_, the antediluvian, was killed by Cain, _Rat_ is a troublesome animal to man; The whole is the name that king Nebuchadnezzar Gave to Daniel the prophet, and called Belteshazzar. From a blue-eyed friend, B. W. P. MERRY’S MUSEUM. Vol. VI. AUGUST, 1843. No. 2. [Illustration] Hindostan. Hindostan is a vast country in Asia, containing almost one half as much territory as the whole of Europe, and one hundred and forty millions of inhabitants. Yet Hindostan is governed by Great Britain, which is almost ten thousand miles distant――which has but twenty-four millions of people, and a territory not more than one tenth part as large as that of Hindostan.
