HER WHO DOES NOT QUITE UNDERSTAND wishes to do so. Not really unkind. If
on the 15th ult. the innocence was proved, why longer doubt? Come to my
home, and, if honourable, welcome. Duty has called, but not kept me
purposely out of the way. Yours sincerely.--April 4, 1859.

NICHT eine MILLION.--If an English school-mistress betrays the most
sacred trust a father can confide to her, there is no power in England
to right him. So, “Vive la Reine.”--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, April 9.
1024.--_Saturday, April 16, 1859._
TWO HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.--Any person (except a detective or his agent)
restoring to me my daughter, ALICE JANE WILSON, 10 years old, shall
receive £200 reward.--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, Ireland.

COCCAGEE.

NICHT ZWEI MILLIONEN.--£10,000 sterling. (Bah!) In 1848, the
commencement of the Golden Age, I would not have changed prospects with
the proudest French merchant in London. Durch u durch verfault.--Ennis,
20th April.
1028.--_Wednesday, April 27, 1859._
CONSERVE TA SANTÉE.--Ma caisse des allumettes est un trésor
inappréciable, le feux qu’elle contienne rechauffe mon âme, me guide
dans le ténèbre, et remplace si non le soleil enfin, au moins le réflêt
de son éclat.
1029.--_Wednesday, April 27, 1859._
YOU must be very gentle. Je comprend votre sentiment en harmonie avec
mes plus chèrs désirs, mais je n’ose pas. Concernant mes nouvelles: ma
vie est très solitaire. P. était trois jours avec moi. J’espére M.
mieux. Je retourne O. P. H., pour revenir--Lundi.

DOUBLE-FIN to CONTRE-COUP.--£10,000 sterling. Bah! I claim £250,000 on

Joey), and on decimals £100,000. Je saurai bien faire valoir (mes
droits).--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, Ireland.

FAITH.--Thanks. The present news does not accord very well with the
protestations so loudly made by him. It is, however, just as I
anticipated. It matters not, poor creature, he is quite harmless. All is
unchanged. Pray write sooner. Ever.
1033.--_Saturday, May 7, 1859._
DOUBLE-FIN to CONTRE-COUP.--Down upon lovely Apollo. £30 per annum out
of his own pocket. Those who don’t pay in money, pay in person. Address
me, E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
1034.--_Monday, May 9, 1859._
