HENRY H. BREEN.

St. Lucia.

"_I put a spoke in his wheel_" (Vol. viii., p. 269.).--If G.K., being

wronged, should cherish the unchristian spirit of revenge, let him

playfully insert a spoke in the wheel of his friend's tandem, as it bowls

along behind a pair of thorough-bred tits, with twelve months' hard

condition upon old oats in them.

By simply putting a spoke in the wheel of the waggon employed in the

removal of the Manchester College to London, one trustee opposed a decided

"impediment to the movement" of that institution.
